Kungchilin is 36 miles from Changchur., eaptured by the Com- munists last week. Lt. Gen. Chao Chia-hsiang, Act- g Commander of Governmelnit armies in the northeast, was sched- uled to fly from Mukden to the Changchun area today to report on the military situation there. The New Life (Peiping Daily) correspondent said five United States newsmen, including Asso- ciated Press correspondent Tom Masterson, were safe in Chang- chun but without freedom of ac- ticn. Approximately 100 govern- ment officials there also were de- tained. The capture of Changchun was reflected in increasingly jittery feei- ing among government quarters in Mukden and north China. Defenses were tightened at Peiping and Tientsin. General Marshall in a formal etter has asked Communist Gen. chou En-lai to investigate Com- -munist claim that United States planes strafed their forces at Szep- ingkai last week and to make a public retraction if it’'s unfounded, Chou announced. He said he had requested a “full report.” 39 PERSONS ARE INJURED, CRASH OF BUS T0 WALL KELSO, Wash,, April 22—Cow- litz County General Hospital an- nounced today that 17 ol the s persons aboard a northbound North Coast Lines bus were injured severely enough to require detailed treatment after the bus caromed off a guard rail and shed the rock wall on a highway 99 curve 2 1-2 miles north of Kalama about 1 a. m. today. Surgeons amputated the left leg of Harold Schroder, 19, Fort Lewi soldier, one of the six most serious- 11y injured. g ‘The hospital listed 36 brought ' there for examination and receiv- ing emergency (reatments, rang- s ed here during the weekend.

Whether we like it or not, destiny may be in these scales Galleries were crowded as Vanden- | berg took the floor to state his views before leaving tomorrow with Secretary of State Byrnes for the Paris conference of Foreign Minis- ters. Undersecretary of State Dean 1 was in the audience. - - SURPLUS FOOD IN ALASKA WILL BE SENT, FOREIGN WASHINGTON, April 22-—Sec- retary of the Interior Krug an- nounced today that surplus food| and clothing, now in Alaska, which cost about $1,500,000 will be dis-} I tributed in Europe, Indo-China, Korea and India.

TEE FOR TWO 22—A ring biggest CHICAGO, April golf hazard. Playing on an English course while an army sergeant, Naiditch, 26, was whacked on an ankle by a drive from a foursome behind him. Next day he limped out and was struck again—in the head by the ball and in the heart by a pretty girl who had hit both® drives. Six months later they were mar- ried.
