GEN. BUCKNER HUNTS WITH COURT o. K.

The Geenral Buckner hunting case, which has stirred a con- troversy involving the federal district court and the Alaska Game Commission, had added to it's turbulent history these new developments:
 1. Following a trial recently in which the court ruled that Maj. Gen. Simon B. Buckner, Jr., was entitled to a resident hunting liecense, Jack O'Connor, wild life agent for the commission, re fused to issue the license. Later the court issued the license in O'Connors name.
 2. On the same day the court granted U. s. Dist. Atty. Joseph w. Kehoe SO days in which to file a bill of exceptions, the first step in appeal.
 3. Frank DuFresne head of the game commission stopped in An chorage long enough to announce his opinion that General Buck ner has no valid hunting license.
 4. When the general heard of this he promptly went hunting to have the issue settled once and for all.
 Meanwhile a lieutenant who came to Ft. Richardson with the infantry acquired resident hunt ing license by filing an affidavit and paying his $1 fee. O'Connor explained that the commission was satisfied that the lieutenant, Charles D. King, is domiciled in Alaska within the meaning of the law, and is not satisfied with the facts in the General Buckner case.
 O'Connor explained that the requirements for a resident hunt ing license are: q the applicant must declare intention to reside permanently in Alaska, CD such intention must be evidenced by establishing a domicile in Alaska for a period of one year. Domi- cile may be acquired by enlisted men who will be discharged in Alaska, officers and men who will be retired here, and by re- serve officers whose tour of ac- tive duty will be terminated. here.
 Paymetn of taxes or ownership of property has nothing to do with establishing domicile, O. Connor pointed out. The rules are laid down by Congress, and not by the game commission, he insisted.
 Depletion of big game in Alas ka, both because of hunting and natural causes, is one of the com missions most serious concerns, he declared. Disease is blamed for decreasing the number of caribou and sheep.

Author of book on silly statutes which are tucked away in the di- gests of nations, states and cities, Cook cites as a fair example the Fountin Inn, N. O., law requiring horses to wear pants.
 Other favorites in Cooks collec- tion of 30,000 loony laws include:
 A Clinton, Conn, ordinance which forbids one to walk tiger on a chain through the city streets; one in Oak Park, H., which limits the number of doughnuts which may be fried in one day to 100; and another which requires the citizens of Barre, Vt, to take a bath every Saturday night.
 Back Skipping Illegal
 Furthermore, slap on a friends back in South Carolina may land you in jail. And, in San Francisco don't prepare chop suey with rat meat unless you want to be tossed in the clink.
 In Dallas, Tex, all dogs must wear red headlights. And, in Alton, H., cats were once required to wear bells to warn birds of their approach.
 Incendiarism is heavily punished in Maine, especially the crime of setting a mule on fire. And it's against the law to exhibit COW with 10 legs or a horse with four tails in Iowa.
 The Monday wash is regulated in Napanee, Ind, where an ordi- nance rules that clothes lines must be more than 50 inches long, and in Reading, Pa, where it is against the law to hang women's under wear in the open.
 No Onions For Barbers
 Nebraska has a law which for bids barbers to eat onions during working hours. And Minnesota has one which makes the teasing of bobcats and skunks a misde- meanor.
 Another Minnesota law says that a hug and a kiss are tantamount to announcement of bethrothal. But Massachusetts laws say 10 kisses are necessary and Maryland's say you have to keep company with the girl for three. months.
 Traffic regulations in Fairbanks, Alaska, include an ordinance for bidding moose to use the sidewalks In Puerto Rico, playing phono- graph constitutes breach of the peace.
 PiccOIO Playing Mayors
 Missouri's statute boks carry law authorizing any city or village to levy a special tax for the support of a band, provided that the mayor can play 8 piccolo and that each member of the band is able to eat peas with his knife. Another bill passed by the Missouri legislature requires street car conductors to wear red vests.
 Cook began collecting odd laws l7 years ago, he said, when he won a case for a client by citing an old South Carolina law which required church-goers to carry guns. Since then, he has enlisted the aid of other lawyers all over the world in his search for freak statutes.
 And Cook has a favorite. Of the thousands of laws in his collection, he points to Neigh, Neb., city or- dlnance as the silliest. It specihcal- ly forbids sale of the holes from doughnutS.

Lucky you are to be selected,
 Though no harm to be rejected. But deem it well to do your best, Or 1t will hurt to face its test You train year, it may be tense,
 But mind you me, it's for defense. Not only for us those We love-
 It's greater yet Oh freedom above. It may be artillery or the infantry, But never like old Coventry. So fear you not to enter service.
 For all the work is just bliss. You cock q gun and form a flank
 But learn it well and gain rank, And then stripe or maybe two
 And even better for one like you You'll have the time to honor Him And pray for those who are 50 dim So when you come t0 Uncle Sam,
 I'm sure you VIII not give damn, Nov may close to pray for you,

Human Repair Shop Sends Nerve-torn And Wounded Flyers Back to Air Wars
RAT Hospital
 Mixes Medicine With Psychology
By PAUL MANNING NEA Service Staff Correspondent

An RAF Base Hospital, England, Feb. 14-It was little bar. Four convalescent airmen, the doctor in charge and myself stood around drinking beer and talking.
 The doctor said this bar was his own idea. It made the boys think, sometimes, they were back in their own mess hall.
 Occasionally though, the door be- hind the bar would swing open and you could see a small emer- gency operating room. The hospital is full of contrasts like that. But you ignore them, just as you seldom ask why a patient is there or what happened to him before he came.
 Sometimes, though, you can guess. Like what happened to the angular pilot they call Roger; standing next to the doctor. His hands and face showed bad burns even after two months of convalescence and by their very severity and location you knew he had stayed in his flaming Spitfire until he had drawn a bead On the German pilot and poured his last round into the Messerschmitt before hailinp ont

DRIVEN TOO HARD FOR TOO LONG

The other three fighter pilots were on edge because they were to be discharged the following day. AL ready they were wondering how it would feel once again to climb into cockpit and zoom off the field into dogfght.
 When they had entered this hospital during the last days of September they were typical of many other airmen grounded after having fought through those dark months of July, August and Sep tember. For like others who had taken to the air hour after hour, seven days a week, during those months the German Air Arm was trying the power tactics of forcing RAF defenses further inland, these men had been driven too hard for too long.
 They had finally developed what the doctor termed nerve stress and when they first arrived at the hos pital they could not sit ill the same room longer than five minutes. Every telephone ring tangled their nerves and at night in their sleep their hands would grip the blankets as if they were caressing the trim cockpit of their little Spitf1re.
 Gradually, though, as the tension of their nerves relaxed and their overwhelming sense of exhaustion began to ebb they returned to nor nal and, as now, were once again ready for action.
 OCCUPATIONAL
 THERAPY
 The little gymnasium is the doc tors pride. Squash courts dart boards, parellel bars, all the special appliances designed to help men | whose bodies were encased in plas- ter, whose hands have been burned and made powerless, fill the space which the doctor hopes will some day be enlarged.
