The mercury plummeted to one below zero in the Pittsburgh suburbs, the first time it has been below the zero mark in March there since the weatherbureau began keeping records 72 years ago.

The previous low was one above on March 17, 1900. A 55-year record toppled at Philadelphia, where it was seven above. At Harrisburg, an 8 above reading smashed the March 4 record of 13, set in 1938. The cold, moving in from the west on the heels of a one-to-six inch snow, sent the mercury below in many sections and although some moderation was predicted for today, freezing weather was expected to continue. 18 Below at Kane Western Pennsylvania appeared to be the coldest part of the state.

It was 18 below at Kane, 16 below at St. Marys, 10 below at Brook- dlle and Ridgway, 9 below at Vandergrift, 8 below at Sutersville, Warren and Clarion, 6 below at Blairsville, and 4 below at Mercer and Parkers Landing. Pittsburgh proper five above. Across the state, Ha2leton shivered in one below weather and Scranton reported zero. However, a majority of eastern Pennsylvania cities reported between 5 and 10 above.

handen HERE AND THERE Staff Serjeant George W. Baker, 21, the man who was officially reported "killed in action" in the Jap attack on Pearl Harbor fifteen months ago, came home to a family reunion on Monday a reunion his mother never expected to have and all his mother could do was hug her boy and cry. The rest of the family cried, too even the father. But all the tears that were shed were tears of joy and happiness. George Baker went off to the war on November 13, 1940.

After preliminary training in this country he was sent to Honolulu in March. 1941. Sunday morning, December 7, George was getting ready to take a shower when he heard "an awful racket." At first he thought the U. S. Navy was doing a little practice shelling.

But when George looked out a window and saw a building blow up he knew it was the real thing war. Someone shouted "all out on the parade ground." George hurriedly donned his clothes and started for the parade ground but when he saw a thousand men out there and Jap bombers flying over head, dropping their "eggs" he knew it wasn't a place for him. He made his way to his Ground Defense Battalion and volunteered for duty with a machine gun crew. From the machine gun pit George and his mates fired away at Jap bombers as they flew in waves of 25 or so planes bombing everything in sight. They, got one of the mess halls, he said.

For fourteen hours George remained in the machine gun pit although the attack lasted about an hour and half "or two hours at the most." "I didn't get a scratch," he said. He saw one Jap plane crash in flames. After this foray George was assigned to a detail guarding a bomb dump. 'George explains the mistaken identity which led the false report of his being "killed in action" this way: "I lost all my clothes. Everybody grabbed anything they could lay their hands on.

Someone may have grabbed my clothes and was killed. My laundry marks were on the clothes he was wearing, hence they thought I was killed." George applied for transfer to the Air Corps. He got it. He wants to be a pilot and in a pursuit ship, too. At any rate he gets a chance at it.

On March llth he reports to the air base at Santa Ana, California, as an aviation cadet. Two other Bakers, all sons of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Baker, are also in the service. Ray is a glider pilot in Greenville, South Carolina and Leroy Baker is an ar- morer in the Air Corps at Hard- 150.60 in war stamps were sold at i him a ticket 'or criviag without a asMgned to the i 139th T.

No finer tribute to those who lost then- lives in the war and to those risking their lives than to have Adams, Pennsylvania's first county, go "over the top" this week. Captain Lester L. Lampert, son of Colonel and Mrs. Lester L.

He was mighty tickled when we told him "nothing.TM And here's his story: Boy Scout Troop 78 made an overnight ar.d day hike on Friday. The troop, nine Scouts with their Scoutmaster, hiked out to C.C.C.

Camp No. 1 Friday afternoon. Each Scout had his bed-clothes and food. They took over one of the small buildings and made themselves at home. Scoutmaster Kerrigan was chef and he prepared a tasty meal, "although some of the food was burned," said our informant.

A supper the Scouts sat around a warm fire told stones. Then to bed. But at 3 o'clock to tbe morn- ing they were all up couldn't sleep. They "Just sat around and talked" for awhile then went back to bed. Breakfast, a short hike and lunch followed.

Some of the Scouts returned home early in the afternoon; others waited until later. Said our informant: "Shucks, it didn't last long enough!" Washington, D. C. (AP) --Price Administrator Prentiss M. Brown paid tribute to the American preas Friday for its "invaluable assistance" in a i i canned goods rationing.

Brown said the service deserved special recognition in view of the difficulties of newspaper these days with paper, manpower and transportation shortages. The above dispatch was tele- typed across the country at noon Friday. Because of a shortage of available news space and the element of time it was only two hours before our deadline we withheld publication until today. It is with considerable modesty that we publish Mr. Brown's letter in full.

It is a splendid tribute to the newspapers of the nation. The in turn, are proud of the privilege and the opportunity to render service to the reading public. The American public can always depend upon their newspapers. Mr. Brown's letter follows: "No finer single service in the interest of the American public has been performed during this war than the splendid by the nation's press of the OPA processed foods rationing program.

"The repeated publication in thousands of newspapers of the OPA consumer declaration form permitted millions of Americans to appear at the registration sites and obtain War Ration Book Two in a matter of minutes. This meant an incalculable saving both in man Hours" of work by the volunteer registrars and in the time of the individual applicants. "Similarly, the publication by newspapers of the official table of point values for March makes it possible for millions of housewives to plan their family's meals and shopping trips in advance. And here also is accomplished great saving of time for the country's 600,000 food stores and the shopper herself. "Again, through repeated appearance of pictures in the press, together with explanatory material, War Ration Book Two became familiar to the public weeks in advance of its issuance.

"Added to all of these extremely important services, was the publication in news columns of thousands and thousands of words explaining the why, when and how of processed foods rationing and use of the point system. "It is not an overstatement to say that without this cooperation, the present high degree of public understanding of this huge rationing program never could have been achieved in the short space of a few weeks. "Such a splendid public service looms even larger when it is remembered that, like many other enterprises, newspapers are feeling the effects of manpower shortages, transportation difficulties, and curtailment of supplies. Nevertheless, they are going ahead full steam and overcoming these handicaps to the end that Americans can continue to be the best informed population in the world. "For the invaluable assistance freely given by a free press of a free country, may I express the deepest gratitude of the Office of Price Administration." Thank yon, Mr.

Brown.

No other organization in the world can help the millions of hungry, starving, freezing conquered people the thousands of prisoners who are powerless in the clutches' of a merciless and ruthless enemy. To do these things and many more to carry on through- 6ut the war, helping those who cannot help themselves, caring for our very own American men and women on every battlefront, in every prison camp the American Red Cross must have funds $125,000,000 for the next year. From Adams county the Bed Cross is asking a paltry $18,700 as our share of the cost of carrying on this work less than fifty cents per person. Surely, Adams county will not deny those who need food, clothes and it just isn't in the the fine people of this county to say they will not help, or do their share. They never have failed in the past and they will not fail now.

Here are two thoughts on the drive that opened this week. Several hundred Adams coun- tians nave volunteered their services to help collect Adams county's quota. They are busy folks but they are willingly giving of their time to this worthy cause. Wont you. please, determine now how much you will give this year and be generous as you can have your contribution ready when the solicitors call dont ask them to return, they really cannot make repeat calls let's not only reach our quota but let's do it in jig time say, two or rhree Let's make our contributions this year in memory of our own gallant Americans who gave their lives at Bataan.
