ROLL CALL GOES
OVER THE TOP
Yadkin County's Campaign
Surpasses 1938 Drive By
Large Margin
ALL PARTS SHOW GAIN
Complete returns from every
section of Yadkin county show
that the annual Red Cross Mem
bership Drive was a complete suc
cess and that it surpassed last
year's drive by a large majority,
according to figures compiled
yeserday by County Roll Call
Chairman W. E. Rutledge.
According to Mr. Rutledge, the
number of memberships secured
last year was 194. Last reports
show that this year's lists show a
membership of 264, wliich is 70
more than 1938. In addition to
this there was one donation of
$2.00 by "A friend of the cause"
at Jonesville and one $5.00 mem
bership at Yadkinville.
One half of this money will go
to the National Red Cross head
quarters in Washington, of whtch
John W. Hanes, formerly of
Winston-Salem and now assistant
secretary of the U. S. Treasury, is
treasurer. This will be used in
disasters, famines, etc., in many
parts of the country. The other
half will be used in Yadkin coun
ty to aid those who suffer mis
fortune, sickness, and other
needy causes. A small amount of
money was advanced for needy
purposes before the roll call be
gan when last year's funds were
exhausted. This was advanced
by Mr. Rutledge, whp is treasurer
of the Yadkin group and will now
be returned to him.
Such a response to a worthy
cause in Yadkin county is grati
fying to workers who have given
their time and energy without
pay, as all of them do. Each
local chairman and their co
workers deserve much praise and
chedit for the work done.
Special mention should be
made here of the work done bj
Mrs. High Poindexter ,of Hunfs
ville. Mrs. Poindexter was not a
local chairman, but after the
drive started she was assigned
the Huntsville territory by Mrs.
Jasper Long who had charge of
that section. Mrs. Long reports
that Mrs. Poindexter was a great
help to her in the work and it is
appreciated by all concerned.
The largest number of mem
bers secured in any district was
in Yadkinville where a total of
70 joined. The next largest was
Jonesville with 46.
A complete list of those who
joined up during the drive is
given below. A few names listed
below gave smaller donations
than the SI.OO membership fee,
but there was less than half a
dozen of them. The complete list

where Finland's Arctic highway
continues northeast to Petsamo
and a railway runs southward to
the Gulf of Bothnia between Fin
land and Sweden.
To support this drive, the Soviet
union continued the landing of
thousands of troops along Petsamo
Fjord and aerial forays for recon
noitering and bombing.
Finns, fighting stubbornly in the
cold and twilight of the arctic,
told of repulsing sporadic Russian
attacks and of shooting down a
Russian bombing plane. A de
tachment of 200 Red soldiers, ap
parently part of the parachute in
fantry dropped in northern Fin
land, was said to have been cap
tured near Salmijarvi on the Fin
nish-Norwegian border.
Thousands of Finns strung all
along the nation's lake-studded
frontier facing Russia observed

to their trenches or pillboxes, or
giving ground slightly before the
Red onslaught.

Ruth Judd, insane trunk murder
ess, escaped tonight from the
Arizona state hospital for the
second time within a month.
Gov. Bob Jones, who told of
her escape, said he had no details.
He added, however, that she had
ben gone from the grounds for
only a short time and that hospi
tal officials hoped she would be
apprehended shortly.
On the night of October 24,
Mrs. Judd, mad murderess, heap-

army communique reported. The
fliers, far outnumbered by the
mighty Red air corps, were said to
have attacked Russian troop con
centrations yesterday while on
reconnaissance.
