Bremen from the Bunker Hill sta- tion, and Truck Co. No. 3 of East Main street under Lieut.. Hogan rushed to Roosevelt school, Bunker Hill, at 8:30 o'clock this morning for what later proved to be a chim- ney fire, burning soot, the fumes from which permeated the entire building and made occupancy for the time being impossible.

 There are 52 children in attend ance at the Roosevelt school in charge of Dorothy Sutton ard Lil- Han Loeffler, as teachers. Class had not officially opened. but there were some pupils in the building at the time and the teachers led them across the street to the home of kindly neighbor; at the same time, several boys were sent to Watertown avenue to direct the firemen, in the proper highway to take from that point.
 The fire marshal directed dismiss sal of the pupils for the morning session, after instructing the prin- cipal, Miss Sutton to so notify the superintendent of schools; the build ing was then vented by the fire de- partment under Deputy Campion.
 There was no damage as result of the fire.

I'6-BY-6' TRUCK IIS VITAL COG IN
 ARMY LOGISTICS

Washington CU.P) - The Armys l-2 ton "six- by six" truck is doing its full share in carrying the war to the enemy.
 The Ordnance Department, the Quartermaster Corps and Engi- neerS and every other branch of the service Is praising 1t for doing most of the heavy hauling and diff cult trucking jobs.
 1 Circumstances played part iu establishing 1t as the Army's trans portation standby from Alaska tC the South Seas and from the Medi- terranean theater to India. It was ready for mass production when the demand came so quantities were quickly available. Moreover, while the Army transportation is from jeeps to huge trailers capable oi hauling tanks, the 1-2 ton truck Is a very handy size.
 The "6x6" designation indicates the truck has six wheels and power on all six wheels, which helps give 1t traction whether in sand or mud or on steep hills. The two pair of rear wheels are in tandem.
 These trucks are carrying huge quantities of supplies to the Rus sians across Iran, Caravans of them flow steadily from 700 miles across Iran from the Persian gulf ports of Basra, Margil, Bandar Sha- pur and Abadan to the Russian supply base at Kazvin.
 Some of the trucks are driven by Americans and shuttle back and forth from KaZvin to the Gulf. Others driven by Russians and Per sians are loaded at the Gulf and driven right on through to the Cas- plan. Ultimately they go to Russia and serve as transport in combat against the Germans. Probably the l-2 ton 6x6 has participated sub stanaally in the Russian drive chasing the Germans back across Europe.
 There Is an assembly plant on the Persian gulf that turns out hun dreds of these trucks daily.
 In India and Assam and along the Burma border the 6x6's are do- ing similar jobs, helping to extend roads in the jungles and carrying supplies to the new airfields located there.
 These trucks also did a notable job in North Africa filling in to supplement inadequate local trans port there. Major General w. D. Styer, chief of staff, Army Service forces. recently told the story of how important items from the cargoes of "A ships were trucked l,500 miles across North Africa from Casa blanca to Tunisia in preparation for the attack on Sicily.
 The cargoes were destined for q base at Mateur and were sup posed to be unloaded in the Tuni- sian ports which had been captured from the enemy.
 The Tunisian ports were so badly battered they could not be restored in time and the cargoes had to be diverted to Casablanca. A total of 1925 trucks were pressed into serv- ice, part of last-minute order from General Dwight D. Eisenhower for 5000 trucks to have on hane just in case of difficulties.
 The war has developed the scl- ence of logistics-having the right amount Of supplies and men at the right place at the right time-to a new high of refinement. The supply problem Is the worry of the Army Service Forces. In the Service Forces they say the 2 l-2 ton 6-by- truck is one of the big reasons are getting the job done.
