The first is a report from Sieily which reads: | “Eighteen U. S. parachutists were captured in an | orchard by the crews of two disabled Nazi tanks. The Germans had two wounded American prisoners; one | of their own men was badly shot up. They proposed that the parachutists take all thrée wounded to a U. 8. first-aid station in exchange for their own free- dom. A temporary truce was accepted, with the under- standing that the Americans would make no im- mediate attempt to counter-capture the Germans. “One paratrooper left to find a first-air station. When he and four U. S, medical men returned to the villa in a pair of jeeps, two Germans and the U. S parachutists were peacefully wining and dining to- | gether, served by an Italian civilian. The transfer was quickly arvanged. The Nazis bade good-bye to their wounded comrade, destroyed their tanks, made off toward the German lines. The parachutists, the wounded and the medics piled into the jeeps, drive { boys and partly men between 40 and 50 years of age. to the first-aid station.” } Bven hunchbacks have been seen in uniform.

This amount was nearly four times the tentative quota of $575 set for the Juneau Chapter by the Pacific Coast divisional headquarters at San Francisco. from THE EMPIRE -3 Final preparations were well under way for the housing of the second annual Southeast Alaska Fair that was to open in Juneau in a week. The huge tent was being pitched on the Willoughby Avenue extension side of the playgrounds. The main entrance was to be en Ninth Street. A. W. Shiels, Manager of the Pacific American Fisheries Company, was a southbound passenger on the Alaska and visited friends while the vessel was in port. He had completed a trip along the Alaska coast and to Fairbanks and other interior points, and Miss Daisy Oja left Juneau on the Princess Alice for the States to attend school during the winter. Miss Ptack was to enter on her third y at the University of Oregon at Eugene, Miss Sorri and Miss Oja were to attend business college in Seattle. Miss Leila Ptack, Miss Ellen So! Peter Carlson left Juneau on the steamer Alaska for Seattle where he was to join Mrs. Carlson and their daughter to make their home in the States. They planned an automobile trip during the fall and winter months which was to take them from Seattle through California and the Southern States. Inspection of the students of the schools had been started by Marie €. Falldine, Public Health Nurse. She was conducting an inspection in the public school and was working with the children in the primary and intermediate schools during the first week. Weather report: High, 50; low, 49.
