This leaves approximately 4,000 Americans still missing. Originally, | the army believed that most of these missing GI's had been killed in action. However, since UN troops have now traveled the entire length of Korea without recovering the bodies of these missing men, it is Lelieved they must have been taken prisoner and removed to Siberia.} So far, Chinese troops have treat- ed American prisoners almost as if they were allies, returning many of them to American lines. But if the 4,000 GI's were transported in- to Siberia by the Russians, the story may be diiferent. This pos- sikility is giving the army great concern. Note—As of the last official count 4,144 GI's were listed as missing. Patient Air Force So the Air Force, as it does with; most of these rumors, painstakingly ancd patiently investigated.

He pro- | duced the flying-saucer gear, butl it turned out to be a mundane preduct of this planet, stamped with the Roman numeral VI. His space radio was a chunk of metal that utterly failed to pick up a message or even a wheeze from space. In the face of this evidence, Koehler still claimed knowledge of the little men, but refused to di- vulge his source and drastically re- vised his story. According to the confidential Air | Force report, “Koehler stated that he had no parts of flying sauccrsi in his possession at present.

Clem returned to Juneau Sunday but remained at his home with a severe cold and got down to his of- fice today. The high school program in the two schools will be limited to start but it is a start, Clem pointed out and is in line with the aims of the people in those communities to of- fer higher learning to their stu- dents and an incentive for their future ambitions. Clem said he found the schools generally in very good shape. He said the teacher tenure has greatly improved in Southeast Alaska schools with a resultant improve- ment in the calibre of instruction. Schools are still crowded he said and each community is looking for- ward to the possibility of better { housing for the students. Clem visited schools in Petersburg Wrangell, Ketchikan, Annette, Ka- saan, Klawock and Craig. ELKS ATTENTION Ladies Night, Saturday Nov. 25.
