UIEALTHY Rumanians LIVING tff ABROAD ate reported to be convinced- that the seemingly un stoppable Russian advance means the end of their fortunes.

' Rumanian real estate Is Bald to ' be selling at PANIC prices -any cash offer being accepted. IAR, ns-youi must' have notdrl, brings out the; best and th worst In 'human beings. Many give their lives freely for a cause. Many others can rise no higher than 'FIGHTING FOR DOL LARS. ' , , I WO tragic war-time stories get Into the dispatches. Three accompanying pilots saw Major Gregory Boylngton get his .26th Jap plane, sending It spin ning down In a ball of lire, into the waters north of Rabaul. One of them saw him dive immediate ly afterward on a formation of 'Jap Zeros below. He says: 'They (Hoyington and the Zeros) disappeared below a cloud. I don't see how Greg could have missed getting one or more of the Japs, but I-never saw him -afterward." .-; HE other, equally tragic In Its ' way, comes from the home tiont. lt Is contained in a brief dispatch from Philadelphia: "Three thousand striking pub lic works employees remained Idle a third day today, their rep resentatives having voted unani mously to spurn the advice of union leaders and to "keep the men out until we got OUR ten cents an hour Increase." Tills second story Is tragic be cause tliere are no strikes in the South Seas, where Major Boylng i ton went down for the last time STILL FIGHTING JAl'S. There are none in the air over Ger many, or In the bloodsoakcd mountains of southern Italy. On the fighting fronts, lives are what count. STRIKES are much In the news just now. In Washington last week the bureau of tabor Statistics (which, In our labor government, can hardly be accused of preju dice AGAINST labor) announced that In 1!M3 the total number of strikes (in spile of the wartime no-strike pledge) was 3737 as compared with the 1!M2 total of 2ti8 and the 1927-10-19-11 average of 1945 strikes. That Isn't a good war record on I he home front. WE must lie very careful not lo Accuse workers as a class of being less patriotic than other LAUGHTER EDITORIAL. By Charles V. Stanton UIE have, a swell group of irls in' the News-Review office, " They are! hard workers and exceptionally efficient, iln fact, they know more about the' business than we do, al though they're smart enough to keep our ego inflated by ask ing questions occasionally, just measure of importance around to run out of good humor, are tomers, and-try hard: to. give those who -may. need assistance. They're really tops. 'But they will giggle! -Maybe it's just thcriiature of girls to giggle. .We never have seen one who didn't. And they can .giggle about the silliest: tilings. 'And sometimes when; they. get started they can't stop and theyJaugh. and cry all at once and have to be slapped on-the back a few times. iThe girls in our office work at'high speed and will go for v. long period of time without a break. Then suddenly, for no apparent reason . at all, one will look up .and spring a wisecrack. 'All work stops find they all start to giggle and will clack and clatter for aifew minutes and then get back on thegob. It seldom happens when customers are around. They're all too. anxious to be .of service to patrons to play when someone comes in on business. 'But, when there's just the office -gang present, almost anything can . happen. iind usually ;does. A few days ago we were endeavoring to string some words together to make sense. We after several days in bed trying to chase the flu bugs out Of the bag Of bones. Our knees still wobbled like those of a newborn calf. We ached in every joint. Our nerves jangled like a three-alarm fire gojtg, and the head throbbed with every-puise. 'Hunting words digging mud clams with a teaspoon. We were concentrat ing every tortured nerve on the pound out on the gossip mill, Then those girls started to giggle! Our "flu bitten-nerves exploded like a hand grenade. We left' the typewriter in a bound and headed for the office door, ready to be the cross, crabbed, mean old boss. Words "of biting sarcasm leaped to the But something stopped the the girls were all grouped around a desk, almost screaming in their laughter. One of them tice, or, else ignored, tho thunderclouds that must have shrouded our homely map. We were summoned over to share the joke. It was funny. We,-too, had to laugh. They gig gled and we guffawed.-Before the wisecracks ended we were making-twice as much -noise, singlehanded, as all the girls combined. ....The headache disappeared, the ache went out of the bones, our, feet began to. track,. and we began to think. we might live. When we went back to the typewriter, tho words came without effort and we finished the piece in no time at nil. It's surprising the lift you can get out of a little laughter. It is too bad laughter can't be put into bottles and sold for medicine in place of the nasty-tasting nostrums the doctors and druggists concoct. If we would only take time out when the going gets tough to brighten up with a laugh tliere wouldn't be half so many of us going around with a perpetual grouch, and the world would be so much-brighter and we could all enjoy life so much more. Were going to try to remember that, when we have to fill out income tax reports next March. people. That ISN'T true. We must remember that strikes, be ing MASS demonstrations, are ALWAYS news, and we therefore get an exaggerated view of them. -Still, we can't help being de pressed by the OFFICIAL state ment that In the critical war year of 1943 strikes were twice as numerous as the average of the 15 years of peace that preceded the war. Something must be wrong somewhere. (Employers have un doubtedly contributed their share to whatever Is wrong.) High School Grid Rules Are Changed CHICAGO, Jan. 10 (Al't The nation's high school football elide underwent Unco surgical operations during t In- annual meeting of the National Inter scholastic Football committee. The rules changes, announced today by Secretary II. V. Poller, provide: (1) When a free kick docs not cross the receiver's re shaming line and is not touch ou by a receiver, the kick will be made again after enforcement ol a five-yard penally. According to the old rule there was no pen ally. (2) Acts of encroachment on the neutral one were classified as follows: Between the lime the zone Is established and the time of the snap.no player shall be in the zone In such a way as to touch an opHnenl, delay the snap, or cause an oioiicnt to charge. (3i In a handed pass behind the line of scrimmage the handing of the ball forward to an eligible player anywhere behind the line is not to be considered a forward pass. Under the old rule If the ball was handed forward to an eligible end It was necessary for him to be at least one yard lie hlnd the line of scrimmage. The new rule docs not apply to pass es whlch.tr.ivel through the air. Pol ler said. IS ..MED.CINE to make us feel we have some the place.
