Society Hears of Juvenile Problems Last Thursday was WSCS day at the White Temple Methodist church and guest speaker for the afternoon was Walter Tippon, county juvenile officer for the un-incorporated cities. Talking on the subject of his work he listed three main reasons why there is such an increase in juvenile delinquency. The reasons he gave were (1) confused thinking on the part of boys and girls, (2) having too much leisure time because so many mothers and fathers are both working and (3) the bad influence of the wrong type of motion pictures, radio programs and funny papers that give the wrong slant on life. The trend can only be relieved by better teachings in the home where the teachings of the Bible must be deeply implanted for "as the heart is so is the person" he said. Mrs. I. R. Griggle, newly installed president, presided for the first time and the meeting was opened with a devotional service, "the open door to the house" being led by Mrs. Mervin Miller.

Astin Herb of Lebanon, Penn., fighting with the 45th division, went out to take a German pillbox—and took it. Pvt. Herb had to enlist the aid of Pvt. Porfie Peralta of Anaheim at the last moment, but the Pennsylvania doughboy got full credit for taking the box by Peralta and the other GI's in Company I on the 180th regiment. The incident occurred during a recent attack on fortified Kraut positions, when Herb was separated from the rest of his outfit, after he had helped clear eight concrete emplacements. He spotted another pillbox from the rear. Slipping up to the box, he pushed the two phosphorous grenades through the ventilation slits, stepped back and lined his bar in the emplacement's only exit. Shortly the door opened and a coughing Jerry stepped out. Herb pulled the gun's trigger, but nothing happened. The rifle was functioning and Herb hadn't known this until he tried the trigger. The Kraut looked at the GI and his non-firing rifle a moment and then stepped back into the box, closing the door behind him. The badly embarrassed Herb just stood there gaping, until he spotted his buddy, Peralta, who obligingly fired several rounds at the steel door. This made the Jerries change their minds about sweating it out inside with the phosphorous fumes and so out came 11 shaky and hacking brand new candidates for the PW cage.
