Give Birthday Ball For Man Dead B Years

WEST MINOT, Me. P)-Coun- tryfolk made merry last night at the birthday ball of a man dead for 23 years.
 The scene: West Minot's tiny Grange hall. The program: mod ern dances and the old-faShioned square dances beloved by the ghost host"-JairuS Jerry" Hil- born.
 Jerry would have been 98 yes terday. Long a friend, counsellor and benefactor of the village youth, he left modest sum for a dance each year until he would have been 100.
 He attached but one condition at the height of the festivities there must be a moment of silence in tribute to Jerry. And should this silence be broken, the dances would end.

Fly Emergency FOOdstuffs To Remote Pt. Hope

ANCHORAGE, (P) - A 7th Troop Carrier Squadron C-82 Fly ing Boxcar was flying 5000 pounds of flour and sugar to the native village of Point Hope. 300 miles north of Nome, where shortages exist, the Alaskan Air Command has announced.
 The 5000 pounds of flour and 5000 pounds of sugar will be par achuted to the villagers in 30 25O- pound packages. The condition of the ice and snow in the area makes it impractical to attempt a ski plane landing.
 The Anchorage representative of the Alaska Native Service who requested the flight be made, stated that boat supplies would not reach the village on the Arc tic Ocean until Sept. l. The flour and sugar will supplement the ra- lives games and fish diet.

U. of w. Chimes Tower Burned

SEATTLE, (P)-The University of Washington's historic chimes tower burned to blackened skel- eton shortly after am. yester- day.
 As firemen finally controlled the flames that leaped upward as though from a giant torch, the bells that for many college gener- ations have summoned students to 8 o'clock classes still hung, black and naked, atop the burned struc- ture.
 Bremen were ordered back from the burned framework, how ever, for fear the heavy bells might crash down from their weakened perch. The cause of the fire was unknown.
 Flames spread to the roof of the Sigma Chi fraternity house across the street from the campus. Dam- age to the roof was not extensive.

Whooping Crane
 Destroys Its Eggs

NEW YORK, (P)-Aother hope for preservation of the nearly ex- tinct whooping crane has just been dashed.
 The National Audubon society received word today from the U. s. fish and wildlife service, with which it has been cooperating in attempts to preserve the species, that two eggs laid by a pair of captive birds in the Aransas na- tional wildlife refuge in Texas have been destroyed.
 The eggs were broken up by the parent birds yesterday.
 Robert P. Allen, official observ- CT on the project, noticed the birds pecking at their nest, inves- tigated and found the eggs had been shattered and that they were infertile.
 Only B whooping cranes, rem nants of untold numbers, are known now to exist. The others have flown north as usual to nest in some undiscovered Arctic breeding ground.
