94 years old, succumbed to starvation during the German occupation. He said: During the First World war, I served with the American army in Germany. I used to feed German children out of my own rations so they wouldn't go hungry. Now those same people have starved my mother to death." Following announcement of vacancies in the public school teaching staff due to resignations, it was learned this last week that nearby schools are also being hit. John Makel, head of the schools at Springfield Place since 1942, has resigned.

Arthur E. Buiklund, teacher and coach at Lake view, also has picsented his resignation. The Rev. John D. Hull of Kalamazoo has accepted a call to the Central Christian church here.

The Oscar Brady Post, American Legion, has named Hany Salisbury commander to succeed Vcrn Hickey. The Battle Creek Engineers club has elected LaVerne M. Hansen president to succeed Raymond B. Roof.

During the week Scrgl. Clarence B. Miller, who has been In charge at the stale police post in Columbia avenue since it was opened in Jan uary, 1940. was transferred to Mar-1 queue. He will be succeeded here on July 18 by Sergt.

Okla H. Knox, who ill come here from East Lansing. A series of unusual circumstances surrounded the announcement made Friday of the death of Pvt. Gayle T. Wardle, 21.

In a German prison camp on April 18. The fact that Private Wardle had died was known to perhaps a dozn persons here for the last three weeks, but It was not until this last week thai the soldier mother, Mrs. Hattie Idcn Wardle, 134 Manchester, was officially notified by the war department. Sergt. Henry Cecil, of Gary, Ind.

who returned to Percy Jones General hospital three weeks ago, brought the news that he was with Private Wardle when he died. He asked to see the boy's mother, but It was then discovered that the death had not been reported. Sergeant Cecil's report was then held abeyance until the adjutant general could complete his examination. Mrs. Wardle plans to meet Sergeant Cecil at the hospital tomorrow and will learn at first hand of the circumstances under which her son died of malnutrition.

News was received also of the death of Staff Sergt. William K. Edge. 20. in air action over Japan on Mr.y 29.

He was a raaio operator on a B-29 Superfortress. And now for the sports doings hither and yon It's going to be a red-letttr day for the Detroit Tigers today, for this Is the day that Capt. Hank Greenberg returns to the Bengal lineup after an absence of four years. His big bat is expected to a major factor In the Tigers' drive to the 1945 pennant. Most critics an- agreed that he likely will swing the league championship to the Tiger ballyard, for the big portion of Tiger losses this season are directly traceable to inability to hit in the clutch.

And Greenberg always has been one of the game's best money players. It's "off week" In civic recreation baseball this week, no regularly scheduled games being luted for play during the period save in the Service Clubs Softball circuit. Such games as have been listed are makiup of postponed games or playoff of games which resulted in tie scores through the eaily part of the season. The fishing season is Just one week old today, yet many limit catches already have been reported. Actually, it's been one of the best early seasons In recent years.

Bass, bluegllls. rock and strawberry bass and aunfish all are biting good, sportsmen say. Prairieview Horn housing project. the municipal canning factory will open this week: the fishing is reported as excellent In all parts of the state and cottagers at the lakes re reporting dinner guects In increasing numbers. Battle Creek Is to have a new nd Important part in the preparation of the completely rounded-out picture for a final and devastating smash at the Japs.

News came this last week that at least 4.000 men are coming to the Kellogg Field, where the troop transport command Is to establish a re-tralnlng program for pilots. The training program Is expected to Include the use of gliders as well as the big troop transport planes and It is likely that there will be some ma parachute Jumping. Meanwhile, negotiations are continuing between the city and the army for the reestablishing of commercial passenger and airmail service at the airport. Efforts are being made to set up temporary administration building at the north edge of the field and to arrange for daily tops of American Airlines planes en schedules that will not interfere with army operations on the field. Quite apart from the contribution that Battle Creek and Calhoun county have made directly to the military services, a tabulation announced this last week shows that in the last three years, factories her have turned out war production on contracts which have totaled 1195,183,000.

This production has included a big variety of war products aircraft engine valves, portable landing mats, barbed wire, mounts for automatic weapons, rocket motors, gun carriages, and countless numbers of parts for machines and weapons of every description which have been produced here under sub-contracts. ttx ce V-E Day some of the con- are slackening off, but em- tebyment here Is holding at a high level. Many of the was contracts art continuing at peak levels. Attention is now being focused on the return to peace-time operations, which if accomplished speedily will (sure to returning service men and women either their old John back gain, or new onee Just as good. The committee appointed by Mayor Bernard E.

Godde and the city commission is beginning a careful study of the subject of a "living" memorial to the veterans of this war and those of previous wars. With the assistance of the county bar association, the committee will be formally incorporated with power to establish a trust fund. All those in the service from Battle Creek and vicinity have been asked to write to the Enquirer and News giving their ideas as to the form the memorial should take. A big variety of Ideas has been suggested, one of these being the build i Ing of a super-recreation center The United Labor Council reported Wednesday night that a check-up of veterans who have returned to their Jobs here shows an overwhelming opinion that the memorial should be In the form of a building which can be used by all veterans organizations and the public as well. They reported that most of the service people say: "We want a place where we can congregate." Roy Westerman will take office on Thursday of this week as justice of the peace, succeeding Justice Charles R.

Young, who did not run for reelection and who Is now retiring. It was expected also that this week will bring a "moving day" at the city hall, with the offices of the Justices and the Justice court moving to the third lloor of the building The former city commission room has been rebuilt for this purpose. The health department is to take over additional space on the second floor of the city hall, which will Include the old municipal court room and the offices of Justice William H. Blbbings and Clerk Damon P. Baxter.

Up to last night, seven industrial firms here had beaten their quotas in the 7th War Loan drive. The E-bond sales for the city and county were still limping well behind the assigned quotas but this will be the final big week In which to achieve victory with sales through July 7 counting In the campaign. People who are Inclined to forget the devastation and suffering caua-ixl by Hitler and his Nazis in Europe are having their memories Jog ged by letters that are now arriving In Battle Creek from Greece.
