Junk Needed
For Defense
AH students interested in clean
ing up their houses of excess rub
bled or in making: a little extra
moaey, can contribute to defense
by putting their faculties to work
co cerning the following notice:
Old cars, outmoded and out
worn vehicles, old twisted pieces
of metal are urgently needed by
the nation. Surprising as it may
seen. 10 “crates” or jaloppies
can furnish enough metal to build
a tank, and this national need
provides an excellent opportunity
foe getting rid of cars that are
too old to use or sell.
Judd Stauffer, head of the Lane
county salvage committee which
baa started the work of collecting
ite ms of war usability from this
area, has appealed to everyone
to start looking for any such vital
material.
Those who may have old
“Crates” to sell will receive 57.60
a ton for the metal. Price control
wit. prevent all junk dealers from
making more than a 10 per cent
profit on such transactions, Stauf
fer said.
For those who would like to
“spring clean” their houses, the
salvage committee has declared
that it wants to collect bundles
of newspapers and magazines,
rag ;, rubber, metals, and dyes.
The exact steps to be taken in
these collections will be an
nounced soon.
This is a fine chance for stu
dents to contribute some material
good to national defense and a
general campus drive would
probably reap surprising results.

Better news for drab clad lads
"a" forthcoming this week, when
gratic music for army camps was
decreed by Napoleonic Petrillo in
a declaration to all union bauds,
allowing- jazz for nil. Confusing
news for followers of swing was
the slightly press-agented per
sonnel switch within several Man
hattan orchestras. From Ted
Weems for larger pay went old
timer guitarist Allen Ruess, to
equal oldster Jimmy Dorsey. Re
cruited hastily to fill a rhythm
gap in Weems’ band was former
Savitt boxist Danny Perri. To

Dorm Meals Reset
Dorm students will return to

meal hour next Monday, it was
decided at tire regular meeting of
the dorm food committee Thurs
day.
"Sleep late, and, let the Mer
cury Book service return your
overnight reserve books to any
carapus library before 9 a.m."
That is the appeal being made
by two enterprising Brown uni
versity students who are setting
up a book-returning service for
a price, of course.
The entrepreneurs. Vincent J.
Luca and William P. Saunders,
figure that many students would
rather pay a nickel to be sure
their books are returned and
sleep.
