Duck Decoy Lood Is Lighter Now

- do with such unnatural de-
coys. What to do? Putting in
metal ballast was no good-that
would cancel out the decoy's light
weight. Angel recalls today that
this problem was the real test of
Newhardt's ingenuity.
He changed the decoy's belly
from round to concave with the
result that it formed a suction
which made the decoy hug the
surface of the water. Thus sta
bilized it rode the toughest waves
more like a real duck than any
decoy they had ever seen.
AS soon as Newhardt's duck
hunting cronies saw and tested
the new decoys they had to have
some. That meant they would
have to be produced in quantity,
a job impossible for Angelfs
basement workshop. So they de-
cided to have them manufactur.

tries, they were about to give up
when they unexpectedly got
letter from a fellow duck hunting
fan, Bradley Dewey, president of
a Cambridge, Mass, chemical
company.
Dewey, u. S. Rubber Director

coys and offered to produce them.
That's when fortune started her

Now everybody n C l u d ing
thousands of emancipated duck
hunters-is happy. The only
cloud in the sky is the problem
of keeping pace with demand.

 ORGANIzATI0N:
 10 MEET DEC. ]

With meetings scheduled for first and third Wednesdays, Civil Air Patrol members already are plan ming the next one, which falls on December '.
 Alan c. Marcum, who commands the new Juneau Squadron, hopes that the date will coincide with a planned visit of several Air Force officers from Fort Richardson In that event, the visiting officers will give technical program.
 For last nights Squadron meet ing, the Engineers office at the Army Dock had many of the aspects of a laboratory.
 Executive Officer Milton J. Fur ness set up fingerprint outfit in one room, and in another, Ed Pey- ton established temporary photo graphic studio.
 These services were to accommo- date the prospective members who had brought in their applications complete except for fingerprint records and Identification pictures.
 Assignments were discussed and plans perfected within the organi- ration of the new unit, resulting in definite progress toward comple- tion of the administrative set-up.
 Due to unforeseen circumstances, the originally scheduled program On communications and certain flight conditions had to be post poned to a later date.
 Instead, a talk was given in line with CAP policy of familiarization with all aspects of that auxiliary to the United States Air Forces.
 Anticipating the time when-for instance, after rescue mission any CAP member might te called on for public information, there was an informal discussion on that subject, followed by a question period
 Public Information Officer Cath erine Flood outlined the essentials of good news stories for newspapers, wire services and radio, and gave "foolproof" formula by which the amateur reporter could be cer- tain to find editorial favor.
 Emphasis was put on the struc- ture of news story, the importance of including the famous Five W's" who, what, where, when and why, as well as how" if interest ing-and on the requirements of acceptable copy.
 The talk included a brief sketch of mechanical processes and hazards, and members showed great interest in samples of type, casts, mats, copy and proofs which were passed around, along with the issue of The Empire of the same day. =

TERRIER PIGSKIN LUGGERS WIN HARD
FOUGHT IS VICTORY FROM LIONS
ON EUREKA FIELD, SATURDAY P. M.

The Libby Terriers scored early
in the first quarter and managed to
protect their lead in a hard fought
battle Their score came after a go
yard march up the field with Bob
Volkenand crossing the goal line
on an off tackle smash. Conn made
good the extra point with perfect
kick.
Eureka managed to score in the
second quarter on what appeared to
be an illegal play. A forward pass
was complete to a tackle, but the
officials made no ruling. Later in
the game Eureka used the same
play, but the officials detected it
and Eureka was penalized for pass
ing to an illegal receiver.
The game was rough throughout
with only minor injuries being in
flicted on either team.
This Saturday Libby travels to
Whitefish to meet the Bulldogs who
are undefeated in four games. The
Terriers are out to avenge last
years six point defeat by the Bull
dogs which knocked them out of
the district championship.

Holds First Aid
Meeting Fri.

A First Aid meeting was held in
the Library last Friday evening
when several Red Cross First Aid
Instructors, First Aid Committee
members and Chapter Chairman
Isabel McGrade met with Kenneth
Jones, Field Representative of the
Pacific Area office of the American
Red Cross.
Mr.. Jones gave an enlightening
talk on the history of Red Cross
and their first aid programs, from
the beginning of the work to the
recent announcement that General
Marshall was the new president of
American Red Cross. In his talk
Mr.. Jones gave the development of
the blood donor program of the Red
Gross and the exceptional work be-
ing done in research and facilities
along that line.
The First Aid department is
the setting up of Highway
First Aid Stations and Mobile Units
In his talk with the local group
Mr.. Jones stressed the need for them
and asked that South Lincoln Coun-
ty Chapter make plans for such SER
vices. ne COIIlIl6HueO IH0 WOIh DS-
ing done by the local Chapter.
DR.. Paul Seifert, medical advisor
to the First Aid workers, spoke
about the need for training in tax
ing care of home accidents espec-
tally. The safety work being car
ried on by industry is helping to
take care of that type of accident
but inasmuch as most of the acct
dents are in the home there is a
great need for proper first aid care.
He mentioned burns particularly
and deplored the numerous ONT
ments, soda and other remedies put
on which the doctor has to clean
off before treating.
Plans were made for the con-
Quoting of more first aid classes
this coming year and it is hoped
that there will be much interest in
the work.
On Thursday evening Mr.. Jones
met with the Libby Volunteer Fire
and the j. Neils Fire
He showed them the
new film Danger is Your Com
panion" and discussed the value of
up-to-date training in first aid
