GRIZZLIES PLAY IN CONFERENCE OPENER TONIGHT The Southern Oregon high school football conference gets off to a start tonight at 8 o’clock on Walter Phillips field at Ashland high school with the Grizzlies, al­ ready holding one win this season, facing an unheralded Grants Pass Cavemen aggregation The visit­ ors played North Bend last week and were held to a 6-6 tie Other than this, little has been heard of the Cavemen, under Justin Weak­ ley’s guidance for the first time. Ashland, with 10 returning letter- men, is favored, locally at least, to cop the game since Grants Pass has lost most of her letter-winners and is starting over with a prac­ tically new club this season. Every effort is being made to have the remainder of the grand­ stand seats in place, but a tem­ porary arrangement is assured for this game.

Do the retail stores re­ ceive any fee or percentage for the sale of Stamps? A. No. The retail stores are offering their facilities as a patriotic service, just as banks, savings and loan associations, and others are giving their help in the sale of Defense Bonds. Q. How can I form the thrift habit necessary for me to buy many Defense Bonds now, to help the Government? A. The easiest way is to in­ struct your employer or banker to hold back a «small fraction of your salary or other income. Even 10 cents a day and a dol­ lar on your birthday will mount up in one year to $37.50, the purchase price of a $50 De­ fense Bond. Bigger savings buy bigger bonds.
