Jury Is Out 13
Minutes in Case

In one of the quickest verdicts
ever returned in Imperial county
superior court, Julia Dukas, 10,
Monday was declared mental case
ana recommended for treatment in
a state institution.
At her trial Monday Mrs. Dukas
enlivened the court room By criti-
cizing and commenting upon the
Judge. the district attorney, her
own attorney, doctors, the sheriff
and his deputies. She also delved
into what she declared was infor-
nation known only TO her, the in
formation dealing with some per-
sons dead.
Since her Imprisonment in the
county jail in FL Centro Mrs. Dukas
has amused herself by drawing
pictures on paper towels. The pic
lures were all labeled with names OF
the persons she said she had drawn.
Three petitions have been filed
on her mental condition and rec
ords show that she has been jailed
frequently since 1880 for disturbing
the peace, and causing disturbances,
and other offenSes.

Only minor patrol skirmishes were
reported along the Eighth army
front, running from the central
heights of the Apprentices to the
Sangro river on the Adriatic coast.
DEFENSE ACTIVE
The German defense on the
Fifth's front was described as "ac-
tive" but no changes occurred in
the battle line except in the Ven
afro area.
Enemy patrols were encountered
at Montazzoli, seven miles west Of
Carunchio. Action on both sides
appeared to be limited to testing
forays-the Germans to determine
the Allied attack strength and the
allies to find loose points in the
Nazi 6efenses some 30 miles below
Rome.
The weather also limited aerial
activity but Allied planes attacked
enemy transport in the battle area,
destroying a number of trucks near
Ancona, Adriatic port.

WORK SUCCESS
The targets hit by the other
/ Fortress formation and the Liberat-
ors also were important, but re-
/ gardless of the results achieved
against them the DAYS work was
a huge success on the basis of the
one main bombing alone.
The raid was only the northern
arm of a United States aerial
bracket on the outermoSt reaches
OF Naz Europe, because bomberS
of the Mediterranean fleet, accom-
panied by Jugoslav airmen making
their debut, hammered NaA air
fields near Athens.
The German DNB news agency
broadcast the report OF the alert
in the Norwegian capital. The
sirens sounded about noon, the
agency said, and the sound OF
gunfire from far distant" was aud
ible in the city.
The 8th U. S. air force raid on
Norway was the first since Flying
FortreSses smashed at the German
U-boat base at Trondheim and an
aluminium and magnesium plant at
Heroya in a 1,800-mile round-trip
flight July "a.
BASES ON COAST
The Germans have concentrated
a large force of submarines at bases
along the Norwegian coast, princi-
pally on Trondheim, for attacks on
Allied conveys in the north Allan
tic.
Today's attack was the first by
the 9Th air force heavy bombers on
Europe since Saturday, when Brem-
en- was raided.
In the Mediterranean theater,
JugoSlav crews made their debut
in the Balkans air war yesterday
in Liberator bombers presented TO
them b. President Roosevelt at
Boiling Field, Washington, on their
com mpletion of a years training in
the United States.
Teaming with American Liberat
ors of the 18th air force, the Jugo-
slavs showered hangers, admins
tration buildings and parked air
craft at Elusis airfield, y miles
northwest of Athens, with tons of
explosive and fire bombs. Several
fires were started and the raid
was described officially as success
full.
1t was from Eleusis airfield that
these same Jugoslav fliers escaped
in their own planes when Axis
troops overran Greece in the spring
of 1941 After receiving the Liber-
ators from President Roosevelt, the
Jugoslavs ferried them to Cairo,
where King Peter officially accept
ed them on behalf of the JugoslaV
