The conference, which will have representation from 44. nations with a total of more than 600 delegates, cannot be accomo dated in Washington. DEATH ROW EMPTY All of the 19 cells on Central Prison's dleath row were empty early this week for the first time since 1909. The Biggs brothers and John Messer, Greensboro youths granted a new trial by the state Supreme Court in con nection with the killing of James town Storekeeper E. J. Swanson, were the last occupants of the row. GRAHAM HIGH WINS TROPHY Congratulations to the entire Graham high school boys' basket ball team, who won the county championship trophy Tuesday night in a hard-fought contest with Altamahaw-Ossipee. When the final whistle blew, the score was 31 to 24. Congratulations to Clint Horner, center, who was chosen on the all-tournament mythical cage first teams select ed by officials, scorers, sports writers; to Dan Horner and Gar rett, picked for the second team. Congratulations, too, to Coach A. B. Hardee who volunteered to help the boys along, and led them to victories over Sylvan and Elon as well as through the final championship bout. Coach Har dee received no remuneration for services rendered except his pride in their preformance and the lasting respect and affection of every member of the team. STARRING STARS We note with interest that Lt. Commander Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., has received the Silver Star for his meritorious conduct dur ing the Salerno landing. Naval officers who have had occasion to work with the former actor have commended with enthusiam on his performance of duty, his sportsmanship. Similar reports are coming through on other erstwhile Hollywood lights now seeing active service. We think Hollywood is to be commended on its part in the national war effort. Scores of stars are, of course, in uniform. Most of those who are not have not been con tent with lending vast sums of money to myrad war drives, but have put their services at their government's disposal and go to any battle-front at a moment's notice to cheer up the boys. It is an encouraging commentary on that be-glamorized American in stitution, the Silver Screen, that such words as stupendious, gi gantic and terrific can be applied to its real-life as well as its shadow-world performances. BACK*** ATTACK ... fa* _ inrrirtiri Red Cross Field Men Tackle Yanks' Problems Overseas One of the very Importent functlone of the American Red Crose la the direct communication It afforde between the fighting man and hla people back home Here Red Croaa Field Director John L. Barnea (left), of White Plains, N. Y? gives a message to Sgt. William J. McDonald, Jr- of Mamaroneck, N. V. Picture was made in Sicily outside a straw Italian hutch with the rear headquarters of the 1st Division near Mt. Etna. On Maiera Island, up In the Persian Oulf, where there Is not a single tree standing and the wind blows across the Island ceaselessly. Red Cross Held men brought Ashing tackle, books and writing paper to service men. Most welcome gift from the Red Cross was clippers tor hair cutting?the boys bad been without a barber for months. In Persia, a Red Cross Field Direc tor was able to locate a soldier's moth er wbom be hadn't seen for 2S years. In Africa, Red Cross field men flew In Army planes, hitch-hiked In supply trucks, bumped In Jeeps over bombed convoy routes, through blinding sand storms and glaring sun to help men with personal problems and emergency communications, and to deliver maga alnes and books, cigarettes and choc olate to Isolated posts and bases. In Italy. Red Cross Held men ac companied the troops in on the Inva sion barges. In India, a sergeant was sentenced to the guard house tor disorderly con duct. His officer couldn't understand the boy's behaviour. He was a ntce kid ?he'd never gone to pieces before. The officer asked the Red Cross Field Director to see blm. The Red Cross man discovered a very worried boy. His wife had not been receiving his allotments, she wasn't well and needed an operation. She thought tbe soldier must have cancelled his allot ments and a misunderstanding had arisen between them so that she was no longer writing him. The Held man got In touch with the Red Cross chapter In the boy's home town Immediately. It took care of her, financed her operation and saw that ?he had adequate funds to provide for herself until the allotment again came through. When the Red Cross man explained what had happened ta the soldier's Commanding Ofllcar. the latter prompt ly released the boj from the guard house. From then on the boy was all right His worries were over, and the Army had gained a good fighting man. All over the world. In erery thea tre of war and active battle front go the American Red Cross field men helping soldiers with majbr and minor personal problems, bringing them rec reational Items such as magazines, books, comfort articles, athletic equip ment and re-establishing their contact with borne. These men share the con ditions and hazards under which the soldiers fight They also share their lives. They are on call day and night whenever they are needed. Q.l.'s overseas have many problems Often borne seems very, very far away. With the Red Cross thers at hand wherever he may be, the soldier knows be can always get In touch with borne ?that he need never feel alone with problems he doesn't know how to solve himself. More than S.000.000 service men passed through Red Cross field men's offices last year. On the mud clogged roads of Italy, through the tar Jungles of New Guinea, on lonely desert posts. Red Cross field men take your place beside your boy. In order to continue this service, the Red Cross urgently needs contributions from the American people to Its $200, 000,000 War Fund drive this month.
