Held For Trial On Assault Charge, Denies Slashing 3 In First Baptist VW Invaders Sault Ste. Marie, June 10 AP Trained teams of "enemy" saboteurs struck in mock warfare at the Soo locks before dawn today but were repulsed by an alert de fense. While explosions of blank cartridges shattered the pre-dawn quiet, the Fifth Army announced that the "situation is in hand." The enemy struck at 5 a.m. His ranks were composed of nine teams of "aggressor" troops trained in sabotage at Fort Riley, numbering in all about 45 men.

THE STRATEGIC locks' first line of defense, the 1437th Tread- way Bridge company of the Michigan National Guard, fought off the first assault. But more were expected to fol low, and the Fifth Army alerted troops at Fort Sheridan, 111., and Fort Custer, for quick move ment to the defense. The exercise, which the Army said wasto train troops in defense of the locks, had been expected to start any time during the month of June. The exact date and hour of the attack was supposed to be a tactical secret, however. At 3 a.m.

came the first word that action was impending. One hour later civilian guards at the locks reported seeing unauthorized strangers in the area. At 5:04 a.m. the first gunfire was heard. JOINING THE NATIONAL Guard company in the original defense were Coast Guardsmen from the Sauit Ste.

Marie area and the civilian guards. By dawn the defenders numbered about 125 men. First "casualty" of the defenders was the defense co-ordinator, Col. Parker O. Stuart, Army engineer officer in charge of construction at the locks.

He was the victim of carelessness by Rational Guard soldiers, umpires said. When one "aggressor" prisoner was captured and brought to head quarters for questioning, his cap tors failed to search him. Thus he sneaked two pounds of nitroglycerine into the headquarters and theoretically blew things up. Col. Stuart was the umpires insisted, and several others standing nearby killed or injured.

MAJOR GENERAL JOHN B. Coulter, deputy commander of the Fifth Army, was on hand at the initial assault and praised the general alertness of the defense. He warned of more attacks to come, howevert The Army swung into action immediately with plans for antiaircraft defense. At Fort Custer th 22nd Ahti-Aircraft Battalion of the Fifth Army was reported moving north. On the other hand, bombers of the 10th Air Force were reported preparing an attack on the locks.

The Army's umpires, wearing white arm bands and carrying walkie-talkies, were scattered throughout the combat area. It was by their decision that the early defense was ruled a success. They reported that the aggressors "withdrew under fire, taking their wounded with them and leaving the dead behind."

It was in the reign of Josiah, King of Judah. and one should read the twenty-second and twenty-third chapter of II Kings to the historical setting and the events of the time. Josiah was only eight year? old when his father died and he began his reign. But in his eighteenth year a great reformation occurred upon the discovery in the Temple of the Book of the Law, probably portions of the Book of Deuteronomy. Such a reformation, vividly described in II Kings 22, was long overdue, for the preceding reigns had been times of great wickedness, with flagrant idolatry, and the degradation and corruption of worship.

THE TIMES were pregnant with danger, and the fall of the kingdom, with the exile of the people to Babylon, was not far off. The little land of Palestine w.a caught, as it has often been, between great warring empires, and Josiah, himself, was to fall in battle, when he became involved against Egypt. It was a time of opportunity, as well as of -peril, for prophets. If they spoke words of truth and warning, if they pointed at the evils and weaknesses of what was ostensibly a time of prosperity, they were subject to the charge that they were pessimists, and disloyal to their nation. Even today, in our modern democracies, people don't like to hear anything but favorable words.

Yet it is not the strength, but the weakness, of our modern societies that should be our concern, if we wish to safeguard our future. What would one think of a physician if, instead of facing and treating some diseased part of the body, he went into raptures over how sound and healthy the rest of it was? The prophets were spiritually minded social physicians and is why they dwelt so much upon the evils and injustices of their time. But their purpose was salvation. Zephaniah, like his greater contemporary, saw in the events of the time the judgments of God. Salvation came through judgment, but not perhaps precisely as WHAT DOES WIS PICTURE REPRESENT? (Answer is below) This picture represents the finding of the baby Moses in tht bulrushes by Pharaoh's daughter.

NOW THERE AROSE up a new king over Egypt, which knew not Joseph. And he said unto his people. Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we: Come on, let ui deal wisely with them; lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that, when there falleth out any war, they join also unto our enemi, and fight against us And they made their lives bitter with hard bondage. And tht king of Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives. he said, Vihtn ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women.

it be i on, then ye shall kill him: but if it be a daughter, then she shall live. But the midwives feared God, and did not as the king of Egypt commanded And Pharaoh charged all his people, saying. Every son that born ye shall cast into the river, and every daughter ye shall save alivt AND THERE WENT a man of the house of Levi, and took to will a daughter of Levi. And the woman conceived, and bare a son: ind when she saw him that he was a goodly child, she hid him thru months. And when she could no longer hide him, she took for bin an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch, ind put the child therein; and she laid it in the flags by the river's bank.

And his sister stood afar off, to wit what would be done to him. AND THE DAUGHTER of Pharaoh came down to wash herself at the river; and her maidens walked along by the river's side; and when she saw the ark among the flags, she sent her maid to fetch tt And when she had opened it. she saw the child: and. behold the bib wept. And she had compassion on him, and said, this is one of thi Hebrew's children.

Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter. Shall I go and all to thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the chiW for thee? And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's mother. And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thai thy wages. And the woman took the child, and nursed it.

AND THE CHILD grew, and she brought him unto Pharoah'i daughter, and he became her son. And she called his namt Moaet and she said, Behold I drew him out of the water. (EXODUS 2: 1-10. 4 From the Oxford Bible DEATHS. Mrs.

MARKET NEWS Oat Prices Yield To Selling Pressure Chicago, June 10 AP A little selling pressure tipped oats downward on the Board of Trade today, but the rest of the market held up reasonably well.
