they will be at Nimitz' disposition.
2. Removes from NtmitS' COM
mand all army troops which have
served under him in the Central
and North Pacific. They VIII serve
under Macarthur. The directive
from the joint chief Of staff does
not mention 1t, but marine troops
would be available to Macarthur
whenever he needed them.
3. Eliminates the lines Of demar-
cation which had existed between
MacArthur's and Nimitz'S command
areas. Macarthur was in command
of the southwest Pacific area,
which extended northward from
New Guinea like a corridor through
the Philippines but not beyond.
Nimitz was the boss In the central
Pacific area clear over to Japan and
in the north Pacific.
The new command changes win
not affect other theaters Of oper-
alton in the war on Japan. In
other words, Lord Louis Mountbat-
ten will continue IN command Of
the southeast Asia area, which d.
cludes Burma, Malaga and French
Indo- China, under the direction Of
the combined Anglo-American
chiefs Of staff. GeneraliSsimo Chi
ang Kai-shek retains top control
OF his forces in China.
The joint chiefs Of staff found 1t
necessary to make the command
changes because the forces Of both
Gen. Macarthur and Admiral MINI
itz had advanced from different
directions to an area within Strik-
ing distance Of Japan. Coordina-
ton could not readily be achieved
under the old command arrange
ment.
Despite the Importance attached
to MacArthur's new assignment, he
will not be in supreme command in
the same sense that Gen. Dwight D.
Eisenhower is in Europe.
For one thing, Macarthur will
have only American troops under
his command. Furthermore, the
functions of a supreme command
will continue to be exercised by the
joint chiefs of staff in Washington.
This group includes Gen. George c..
Marshall, Army chief Of staff Adj
miral Ernest j. King, commander
in-chief of the U. S. fleet; Gen. H.
H. Arnold, Army Air Forces chief
and Admiral william D. Leahy,
chief of staff to the President.
Arnold will continue in command
of the goth Air Force-the B-29
superfortresses now hitting Japan
from bases on the Asiatic MAIN
land and the Mariana islands.

Large Crowd Attends Jungle
Cock Picnic At Buckeye


The magic words, Free ice cream,
free swimming and free pony rides"
with a variety of other attractions
brought out the youngsters and
adults enmasse to attend the Sports
mems Club Jungle Cock picnic held
at the Buckeye last Thursday. A
crowd of over 200 persons attended
the mixer. A basket pot luck sup
per highlighted the program. Tables
placed together were heaped with
food and all attending had ample OPP
portunity to partake of war scarce
iuxuries such as cake and other
deserts utilizing hard-to-get sugar.
The demonstration put on by the
Lima Bait Casting team under the
direction of Bob Wilson was we'll re-
ceived. The team utilized the boat
dock for their casting and the fact
that the demonstration created a
great deal of attention brings out the
realization that additional facilities
are needed at the Buckeye for de-
veloping of this type of sport. The
boys from Lima suggested an en-
larged platform would make an ideal
casting setup and casting meets
could be held with neighboring teams.

In the five-eights ounce accuracy
event the following competed: Edgar
Carnes, Vernon Harris, Bob Wilson,
Red Randall, all of Lima; 81 Diller
of Bluffton and Jud Klingler of Ada.
Winners: Carnes, 1st; Wilson, End +;
Randall, 3rd. In the three-eights
ounce accuracy the same group COM
peted. Winners were: Wilson, 1st !;
Carnes, End; Klingler, 3rd, and Dill
ler, 4th.
In the fishing contest Ross Nc
Donald of Ada won the prize. Nc
Donald caught a 11A inch bass to
cop the honors. Seems even the fish
cooperated during the day for the
youngsters caught great many blue
gills and sunfsh and had a good
time at the sport. Large numbers
of bass could be seen frequently near
the surface of the water throughout
the entire day.
The ponies attracted a horde of
youngsters and oftimes as many as
three dozen kids would be standing
in line awaiting their turn. The
ponies were managed by Mr.. and
Mrs. Ray Clements who brought with
them saddle pony and pony cart.
The other pony, led at times by Roy
Rogers, the owner of the sturdy little
animal, always was in demand.
Following the basket supper Bluff
toms volunteer fremen put the new
pumper truck thru its PAGES. The
youngsters had big time here for
the water fight with the boys man.
ming the hose stole the show. Such
ducking as the kids got will be
long remembered by the participants.
One battle would be enough for old
folks but the kids came back for
more battles repeatedly. The reward
for their efforts was the privilege of
manning the hose while pressure was
built up and powerful streams of
water shot out over the quarry.
The marble scramble proved ex-
citing and more than one youngster
finished the scramble with pocket full
of classics. Winners in this event
were as follows: Boys-Joey Good
man, 27 marbles and SOC in cash
Dwayne Hauenstein, II marbles, 25c
in cash. Girls: Sheila Burkholder,

responsibilities of good sportsmen.
The point was brought out that we
enjoy only a life estate in the out of
doors and we are morally charged
in our time to hand it down un-
spoiled to tomorrow's inheritors.
Robey, accompanied by Walter
Lauffer, staff photographer for the
Conservation Bulletin, both looked
over the entire park site at the
Buckeye and expressed great deal
of interest and praise in the develop
ment program taking place at both
ends of the Buckeye quarry.
They were much interested in the
new shelter house and table built by
A. E. Kohl and stated that the
Sportsmen's club had an excellent
program under way for the benefit
of the people of Bluffton and COM
munity.
The new water line and fountain
were admired along with the newly
erected lighting system adjacent to
the shelter house.
Robey and Lauffer were both very
much concerned over the fact that
such a polluted stream as Riley
creek flowed thru the community.
They were distressed to see a beau
tiful Handicapped quarry on one hand
and contaminated stream less than
so feet away, but were gratified to
learn the community plans a strong
course of action against this evil in
the near future. To learn that the
sewage disposal system had been
voted down by the community on five
different occasions could hardly be
believed by the two men.
The pheasant project at the rear
of Lincoln Hall was also visited by
the visitors and group Of club di.
rectors. The pheasant project has
turned out unusually well this year
and the birds in all ten cages are
strong, healthy and of good size.
Everybody attending the mixer had
lot to say about the clean appear
ance of the park site, how nice the
new picnic tables were and all liked
the new sidewalks, stairways, and
fioodlighting system.
The basket supper was managed in
excellent fashion by Herbert Rup-
right, and to Silas Diiler, general
chairman and all the other directors
and friends who helped with the pic.

Hunters Can Buy 12-Gauge Shotguns
And Get Same Ration OF Shells

SaHu UCl Ddiuc udtfOu vi fSNellS
Note to hunters: You now can buy
a 12-gauge shotgun.
The War Production board revoked
an order which permitted the sale of
.38 caliber revolvers to peace officers
only and the sale of 12-gauge shot
guns to farmers alone.
Nimrods will be limited to 100
shotgun shells during the forthcom-
ing hunting season. Ration in the
first year of peace will be no larger
than in the lastyear of war, be-
cause of the continued shortage of
lead, the War Production Board an
nounced.
A hunter also may purchase $50
rounds of .22-caliber rim fire cart
ridges, and 40 rounds of centerfre
rifle ammunition (or so rounds if
packaged so to the box).
This makes a total of eight boxes
of ammunition of all kinds. To get
it, hunter must sign a certificate
provided by WPB to suppliers.
Farmers, ranchers, professional
hunters and trappers, including
Alaskans and Eskimos, may obtain
larger allotments by signing a GER
tifcate saying they need it in con-
nection with the safeguarding of
crops or the earning of livelihood.
