fled. She left Sturgis immediate
ly to reclaim her son-promis-
ing him proper parental discip-
line-and the Barton family re-
fused to prosecute.
Four Detroit boys, two of
them older than II, who stole a
car from the Needham Motor
SAILS, Detroit, were accorded un-
deserved leniency S Satur r d a y
when the auto sales firm refuS-
ed to prosecute them after sher-
iff's deputies had arrested the
quartet. They were driving a
1941 Plymouth coupe taken from
the Needham lot, but had COM
merical license plate on 1T
when Deputies George Shaw
and Daniel Adair halted the car
for investigation.
At 1.55 a. m, Saturday, East
Detroit police chased and halted
a speeding car in that city, with
a youthful driver at the wheel.
It was 16-year-old Detroit
youth, and quick check-up re-
vealed that the auto had been
stolen in Crosse Pointe. He was
turned over to police Of that
community.

win at Homalin, then down the Chind-
win to Sittaung and Tamu, and
thence on the Manipur Road to Inn
phal. Using it, / expected to be able
to contact them and drop the neces-
sary food; Joplin and I even figured
we could land on sand bar in the
Chindwin and pick them up. We
planned all this out the next day as
we few back home, four hundred
miles to the Northeast, transporting
our first jeep into Assam by plane.
But though we began next day to
fly into Burma to contact General
Stilwells party, again we found that
there was many slip 'twixt the
cup, etc., even when one had an
itinerary. After I'd crossed the
Maya Hills in my single Pas, would
follow the Chindwin South until I
came to Homalin. Then I'd turn to
the East up the river, flying right
down in the canyon formed by the
thick jungle trees. I carried a Very
pistol to identify myself, but learned
that we had no battle-ground liaison
code with which to establish our
identity to General Stilwell. AS a
substitute I decided to fire a green
light, figuring that anything but red
would indicate that I was friendly.
Though I saw party after party,
there was no way of identifying that
of the General. marked their posi-
tons on my map, and we went back
later in a transport plane and
dropped food to all of them-food,
medicines, and blankets. Later /
dropped letters attempting to estab-
fish a code between his party and
our ships, so that if he wanted us to
land when he reached the Chind-
win, he could signal us with panel.
We were never able to contact him,
but we continued to drop food to ev-
cry party Of refugees we saw.
AS the days stretched into weeks
and no news came of General Still
wells party, we just dropped bags
of rice and medicines to all parties,
whether they were led by a Gems
eral or by a British sergeant. On,
my single-ship escort trips noted
that burning barges were floating
down the Chindwin, South of Tamu.
One afternoon I saw four big river
boats burning at the docks of the
town where the Manipur Road be-
gan. / reported this to the British.
Then, about three weeks from the
day we had flown down to get the
staff out of Shwebo, ] met General
Stilwell and his tired group at the
little Tinsulxia railroad station. ]

go-things just don't much matter.
We loaded the anxious staff and
took Off for Calcutta with over forty
passengers. We could easily have
taken from fifty to seventy, but the
staff colonel whom we instructed to
give the signal when the load was
aboard evidently lost count, for he
came up and told Colonel Haynes
that all were inside.
As we crossed South Central Bur-
ma towards the town of Chitta-
gong, we planned to come back that
night and take General Stilwell out
II we had to trick him into getting
aboard. We crossed the many
mouths of the Ganges in one Of the
worst rains that I've ever seen, and
soon landed in the humid heat Of
Calcutta. While we were reservic-

hundred miles, Joplin landed from
Assam, and Colonel Haynes had him
unload his cargo and take off imme-

them to Calcutta.
General Stilwell with a few of his
staff, his Ado, Colonel Dorm, and

long trek to India by way of the Uyu

1 MARY MAL0NY CORY RETURNS FOR OLD
 HOME TOW N VISIT

It took Bess Cross election to the Territorial House of Representa- tives to bring Mary Malony Cory back to Juneau after an absence of 27 years. She arrived by steamer Saturday and will remain here as Mrs. Cross house guest at her apartment at the Baranof for the next week.
 Born in Juneau, Mrs. Cory was last in town when she came north from Seattle after the death of her father, John F. Malony, one of Juneau's first citizens-from the standpoint of his time of arrival in the town and his prominence.
 Mrs. Cory's husband, Dr. Her bert E. Cory, is head of Liberal Arts at the University of Wash ington, an author of note and possessor of more degrees, earned and honorary. than most of his colleagues.
 Most precious possessions of the Ccrys, however, are their seven adopted children. Mary, the oldest, was married two months ago and is living in Los Angeles. Dick, 19, is in France with the infantry. The rest of the children, Michael, 13 Brigid, II; Sharon, 10; An thony, g, and James, T, live in the spacious Cory home on Capitol Hill in Seattle, The girls attend Forest Ridge Convent where they are special friends of Patsy Cross, and the boys are pupils at St. Jo- seph'sA <
 In spite of her large family, which takes much of her time and attention, Mrs. Cory spends two days week as voluntary worker with the OPA and one day at the USO.
 The Malonys came to Alaska back in the sos aboard a whaling vessel, and MT. Malony was one of the founders of the Alaska Electric Light and Power Company and owner of extensive other in- terests in Juneau.
 Mrs. Cross and Mrs. Cory, both Alaskans and friends for many years, have talked about trip to the Territory together but the op- perfume time did not come until this election year.
 New that she is here, seeing old friends, meeting new ones, noting changes in her former home town Mrs. Cory wonders why it took | her 27 years to come back again.
