ASKOV
Special. PIT. A. Meeting.

Last week it was stated that the
next PIT. A. meeting would possibly
be for the benefit of the Red Cross.
To certain extent this is still right,
but instead of waiting until the next
regular meeting night which would
be the third Thursday in February,
it was decided at the PIT. A. meet
ing last Thursday to sponsor special
meeting at which time a collection
will be taken and all the proceeds
from that meeting will then be given
to the local Red Cross drive.
This special meeting is scheduled
for tonight Thursday in the school
auditorium. A special program is be-
ing arranged and as usual there will
be refreshments after the meeting
So plan to attend the meeting tonight
and be prepared to make donation,
large or small, just as you are able,
when the hat is passed around.

 Chinese were attempting now to cut off the entire enemy column in the Salween valley by attacking Lashio, in Burma, southern terminus of the Burma road.
 This force, he said, was attempt ing also to isolate an enemy force which has moved northwest from LashiO to Myitkyina. l05 miles to the north.
 To counter this move, the spokes- man said, the Japanese were att tempting an encircling move in the Myitkylna area aimed at pocket ing" the entire Chinese force be. tween Mandalay and Myitkyina. "The outcome of the Burma war seems to depend on the develop ments of these two encirclement ef- fortS," he said.
 Chinese Strategy
 The Chinese strategy appeared aimed at recapturing Lashio from whence the Japanese launched their Gortie into China and sent another invasion column northwest to seize Bhamo and Myitkyina.
 Yesterdays Chinese communique ofilc!ally acknowledged the loss on May 8 of Myitkyina, which Is l95 miles north of Lashio. Bhanno. 100 miles above Lashio, fell previously. The Chinese army headquarters communique credited American vol- llnteer flyers with killing 200 Japa- nese and wrecking 100 trucks in an attack late Sunday. These casual ties were in addition to the 4,600 inflicted by the Chinese in the bat- tie around Chefang, % miles inside the border, and adjacent area, which wrecked the Japanese inva- sion.
 within 24 hours there won't be any Japanese left in southwest China" an allied offlcer told a United Press correspondent at an AVG base. "The only Japanese I saw today (Monday) were near Wanting and they were rapidly re- treating toward Lashio."
 The exact Chinese position in the ll0.mile area from Mandalay north. east to Lashio was not known here, but 1t was known that Stilwell's armies had recaptured Maymyo, for nler British army headquarters and more recently temporary Burmese capital 30 miles from Mandalay.
 An enemy advance was reported east from Loilem, 125 miles south- east of Mandalay, toward Kong
