The thermometer will supplement
the clock in determining quitting

for late today and again Wednes-
day with maximum temperatures In
the mid-80s on both days.
There Is little prospect in the

perature reaches 80 and the humid

to employees "in quarters reasonably
well adapted to hot weather, even
though the employe Is experiencing

ment.

ATHENS, Aug. 3.-The general

ern anchor of Communist forces
in Northern Greece.
A spokesman said the 9Th Division
also took Kamenic Heights at the
north end of the guerrilla defense
line. Kamenic is $500 feet high and
squarely on the Albanian border
eight miles north of Konitsa. The
Greek army had reported its forces
had been shelled, mortared and
machinegunned from the Albanian
side of the border at Kamenic.
Some in Athens saw indications
OF a collapse of all the Communist
western front in the Grammos
mountains.
220 Rebels Reported Slain.
The peaks of Kamenic dominate
the valley in which the north end
of Markos Vafiades' Communist
lines are based. Vaflades' last known
headquarters at Georgopotamos is
within artillery range of Kamenic.
Press reports said 220 guerrillas
we're killed, 106 captured and up to
900 wounded in the northern battles.
Kerassovon lies between the
heights of Prophet Elias and Klep-
tis, which have fallen in the last

after Wilbur Thompson, also of
Southern California, had led an
all-American assault on the Olym-

event with a toss of Sc feet 2 inches.
The time for the 200-meter was
considerably slower than the 20.7
