3 Million Bushel Crop
Cited; Groups Named
Morrow county's record wheat
crop will exceed 3,200,000 bushels,
according to word received from the
local triple-A office, which has just
completed a summary of 1941 pro
duction reports. This represents ah
average production of 31 bushels per
acre, which is considerably more
than twice as high as the average of
the past ten years, which is 12.8
bushels per acre, and is more than
13 bushels per acre higher than the
previous record established in 1928.
Triple-A records do not go beyond
the 1928 crop, but there is little
doubt that more wheat was produc
ed in Morrow county in 1940 than
any previous year in the history of
the county.
A considerable amount of this crop
has gone under government loan
with county office records showing
a total of 2,498,892 bushels with a
total loan value of $2,370,980.88 un
der the loan at the close of business
Tuesday night, December 30. Of this
amount, 634,788 bushels were in
farm storage and 1,864,114 in public
storage.
For 1940 conservation payments,
the local office reports receipt of
$80,000 to date.
Mr. Baker, chairman of the local
committee, reported on the results
of recent elections for committee
men to administer the 1942 program.
Men elected were as follows:
County committee: Henry Baker
of Eightmile, chairman; Frank Sal
ing of Lexington, vice-chairman; and
Oscar Peterson of lone, member.
Clyde Denney of Lexington and
Frank Anderson of Eight Mile were
elected as alternates to the county
committtee.

Marines' Amphibian
Tanks Go Anywhere
The amphibian tanks being used
by the Marine Corps to train men
in the newly formed "alligator"
companies, are dally going through
severe tests and have yet to be
found wanting either on land or in
the sea.
In the southeastern part of the
United States, in a daily training
routine, they climb steep banks,
slough through mud, seaweed, hya
cinths and swamplands, pushing
down four-inch trees like match -sticks.
They can spin on a dime,
nose dive and stand on their tails
without turning over.
The tank is practically non-sink-'
able. Traction on both land and in
the water is provided by caterpillar
treads with unusually wide cleats
which give an extra pull no matter
where the tank is, or at what angle
it is standing.
The tanks are armed and equip
ped with radio. They were origin -aly
designed as a mercy machine
to rescue persons marooned by
storms and similar disasters when
no other means of transportation
were available. The Marine Corps
realized how the "mercy machine"
could be easily adopted to military
use, and, as a consequence, more
"alligators" are daily being added
to the armed strength of the Corps.
As the new tanks are delivered,
more men are being needed to man
them, and an opportunity is given
to men enlisting in the Corps to
qualify for training with these am
azing mechanized wonders. Any re
cruiting station will be glad to point
out the many advantages of enlist
ing with the Corps in defense of
America to any applicant, age 17 to
30, single and with no dependents.

Employment Office
Under Federal Control
The Pendleton office of the Ore
gon State Employment service is be
ing transferred from state to federal
control effective January 1, 1942,
and will hereafter be operated as an
office of the United States Employ
ment service, L. C. Stoll, United
States Employment Service director
for Oregon, announced today.
Mr. Stoll said that the 24 offices
of the state department are being
made federal offices this week, fol
lowing President Roosevelt's request
to the governors of the states on
December 19, 1941, asking that ar
rangements be made to transfer the
personnel and necessary equipment
to the federal government in a na
tionwide reorganization of the em
ployment service in order to meet
increasing demands of war indus
tries. All employees of the state employ
ment compensation commission who
are engaged in employment service
functions will become federal em
ployees at their present rating and
salary under the state merit system.
The Pendleton office will remain
in its present location, 201 S. E.
Court St., under the management of
Don Robbins, but will operate under
the name of United States Employ
ment service.
Claims for unemployment insur
ance under the state law will con
tinue to be taken at the Pendleton
office by federal employees and
transmitted to the state agencies for
the usual determination as to eligibility.
Mustangs Meet First
Defeat at Kennewick
A smooth-working, fast-breaking
Kennewick quintet dropped Hepp
ner from its unbeaten perch, 33-25,
Monday night on the Washington
team's floor. The Heppner team,
distinctly ragged and stale from lack
of regular practice during the last
week, failed to show their custom
ary brilliant team play and, but for
a brief interval in the first quarter,
trailed during the whole game, half
time score being 10-6. High for
Heppner was Johnny Skuzeski with
10 points.
On Tuesday, January 6. Heppner
meets Lexington on the latter's floor
and on the following Friday opens
Wheat league play with Condon on
the local gym floor.
Following is the game summary:
