VETERAN AT 14.
NOW IS A SAILOR
SALISBURY. N. C.—<AP»—
Back in 1941, before the war, 14
year-old Donald King, a large
lad for his age, joined the ma-1
rines.
He was part of the first convoy
which moved across the Pacific i
after Pearl Harbor, was in the,
< first landing at Guadalcanal, and \
in 1943 he was invalided home j
with a leg wound. Then his dad, j
Fulton King of Kannapolis, de-1
cided Donald had better get back [
to school, and let the Marine Corps
^ in on the lad's actual age.
Now Donald is 17 and as a
member of Uncle Sam’s Navy,
he’s all set to go ou* and finish
the job he started when he was
fourteen and a half.

MRS. LEONHARD SEPPALA ~
IS RAISING UNIQUE GARDEN
“An international plot is what
I call it,” said Mrs. Leonhard Sep
pala, referring to her potato patch
at Chatanika.
When queried about the unique
potato patch she said she had 3
d'fferent kinds of potatoes. “It is
perhaps the only potato patch in
Alaska that has Swedish, Norwe
gian, and American potatoes in
the same plot.”
Beautiful large dahlia blossoms j
have been absorbing the sunshine
and attracting the bees in her
flower garden. The largest blos
soms measure seven inches across.

Warren Plays Smart
Political Poker
By JACK STINET7
SAN FRANCISCO — Go, Earl
Warren's unprecedented pre
convention statement, releasing
the California delegation tc the
Republican national convention
from any pledge to him ar.d ask
ing that his name not be submit
ted to the convention for any of
fice, may have caused some con
sternation in Republican ranks.
It shouldn’t have, if the con
clusions of Republican politicians
here are even close to correct.
They say:
Governor Warren is a good pol
itician. As a member of his op
posii'on put it, “he’s playing just
as deep a game as Roosevelt,
Dewey or Stassen, and looking
i just as far ahead as the last two ’
By releasing the California del
egation and asking that his name
not be submit’ed for any office,
he “ducked” the possibility rf be
ing “defeated" for any office in
behind-the-scenes maneuvers at
the convention.
He has also fullilled his cam
paign peldges to California to do
his best to see certain reforms
enacted while he is in office.
He placed the responsibility
land the privilege* of voting for
whom they pleased squarely on
the shoulders of the delegation.
AAA. -t- .C • A..
It isn’t so long since Wendell
L. Willkie, Gen. MacAr'hur, Lt.
Com. Harold E. Stassen and sev
eral others were well up in the
Republican nomination picture.
As long as that condition existed
there was a probability that the
convention might select a compro
mise candidate. In that event, a
man controlling the California
delegation would be in a power
ful strategic position, either to be
nominated himself or to have an
mportant part in naming the can
dr te. With the overwhelming
swing to Dewey, the strategic im
portance of controlling the Cali
fornia delegation diminished con
siderably. The impor'ance of
merely “running” for vice presi
dent was something else again and
something, incidentally, that the
1 Californians don’t consider much
' of anything.
* * *
: The cls'm here was that Cali
fornia ts the third largest state
j in u,r- Union: that by adding more
j than ; million population in the
! last lew years it has nosed out
I Illinois, to rank next to New
(York and Pennsylvania.
! Pacific coasters (and maybe
| even Gov. Warren) consider the
; governorship more important
1 than that frequently last refuge
. of anonymity and political impo
! tence—the vice presidency.
k. A A •*. *1. »'m *!* *!• •!* *>
On the other hand, one point on
which Gov. Warren has hammer
ed has been the lack of western
representation in Washington ad
ministrative circles. He has found
it a sympathetic subject through
out the state. It would have been
difficult for him. in view ot that
‘o turn down a vice president a!
nomination, or a cabinet post
should the Republicans move in.
By his recent declaration, how
ever, he freed himself, his state's
delegation and his state insofar
as obligations were concerned.
From now on, Gov. Warren’s
course will at least have the ap
pearance of being what he and
his California advisers alone have
charted.
GERMAN PRISONERS
MAKE OWN DYES
RUSTON, La. —<AP>—German
prisoners at a camp near here
have shown remarkable ingenui
ty in coloring underwear for soc
cer uniforms, reports Co. Alex
ander Adair, camp commanding
officer.
S Source of some of the colors is
still a mys’ery, he admits, but
it was learned that the prisoners
were getting yellow by using ma
: laria pills that had been issued
to them in Africa, red from mer
curochrome and blue by boiling
their out garments.
