Two housing tips one con cerning a house and the other in volving a court apartment came to Hopkins this week from local residents.

"Between 10 and IS requests for housing are received here dai ly," Hopkins said. "This is a great increase over the number of re quests received at this time in 1948. Although most of the appli cants are local veterans, they face a worse housing shortage this winter than last.
