Coach Dan Scott's Independence
Hopsters yesterday nipped the Sa

field.
Fullback Maret plunged over
from the six-inch line with the.
winning points and then pitched
a pass to Howard for the con

time as the result of Sweringen's
second quarter tackle of a Jayvee
ball packer in the Salem end zone.
Salem roared back in the
third period and on lonsr passes,
Jim Arnett to Barlow and Arnett
to Andy Zahare, set up the stage
for Arnett's 8-yard plunge to
touchdown.
Numerous threats by both sides
were nullified by fumble-itis
throughout the game. The game

Our homes still stand; our income is generous. We can buy
all the food, shelter and clothing we actually need and pro
duce enough in addition to make our fighting men the best
equipped in the world, and to supply , our gallant allies who
are less self-sufficient than ourselves. .
There is ample reason for Thanksgiving in the heart of every
one of us. And it is a spirit to share with others: especially
with someone far from home and lonely who can take the
Slace at our own dinner table, ; left vacant by a loved one
i service. Someone in uniform, whose own folks may be
making up for his or her absence by entertaining yet another,
lad or lass In olive drab or navy blue.
Of course you 11 make it a wonderful Thanksgiving for others
ss well as yourself. Because Thanksgiving is as American as
the spirit of freedom we are now engaged in keeping alive
at any cost! And the observance of this Thanksgiving is for
each of us a rededi cation to the most liberty-insuring pre
cepts by which we live. j : r -t -
Above all, it's the day to make-sure there will always be
Thanksgiving by decidirfg to give War. Bonds for Christmas!
