WELLS DESTROYED

Empire detachments withdrew 70
stronger defense positions blowing
up all oil wells, refinerieS and in
StallationS as they went. All had
been mined in expectation of ?
Japanese attack.
1t was expected here the japanese
would seek to organize at once for
an advance on the oil fields in the
Dutch part of the island, and that
they would seek to make Borneo,
heart of the East Indies, a base for
attacks on Singapore to the west
and the Philippines to the north
east.
Well informed sources reported
British authorities had made all ar
rangementS to blow up every oil
we'll in the Miri area if necessary,

up on its more pressing business it
might take up the matter of the
SergcantS who chiSel in on the pri-
Yates girls.
The office of defense, health and
welfare services received this report
from an eastern Women's college:
"A torrent of dissent was loosed
when the matter of dancing with
soldiers came up for discussion tat
a conference on the girls part in
defenseD Part of the dissatisfaction
has to do with the military rules Of
etiquette.
When we dance with a nice
boy who is a private, one delegate
said, the sergeant cuts in and that's
the last we ever see of him Il
seems the Army has q rule that a
private can't cut in on a superior"
