PACIFIC QUINTET SCHEDULED FEB. 5 BOOK DRIVE IS STARTED HERE A combined team of Hermiston and Stanfield basketball players will as- sume a giant-killer role here Thurs day, February 5, when they tackle the strong Pacific university five. Al though Pacific university boasts only one returning letterman, Coach Pete Miller has a reputation of producing winning teams, winning 18 out of 28 | contests last year and accounting for most of the major upsets in the con . ference. Several nights of stiff practice are in store for the local teams in prep aration for the contest. It is felt that by combining Stanfield and Hermiston | players, a good team can be placed on ; the floor February 5. Starting Monday, January 19, the victory book drive gets underway in Oregon, when every citizen is invited and urged to give at least one good book for the boys in the service. It’s a nation-wide drive sponsored by the American library association, Amer ican Red Cross and United Service organizations. "Keep ’em reading, too!” is the slogan adopted by Oregon for this campaign, which will continue for several weeks. Librarians, heads of service clubs and women's clubs, as well as other civic leaders, have been asked to lend their support to this all- out effort to provide desirable books for the nation’s soldiers, sailors, ma rines and fliers.

The classification includes trucks engaged in milk deliveries but does not include trucks operated by groce ry stores for delivery to customers. Farm tractors will be eligible for new tires, but not farm trucks and cars. The rules do not permit the issu ance of certificates to eligible persons if present equipment can be recapped. It is also necessary that the owner trade in replaced tires in making the deal or dispose of the old tires as or dered. Certain groups of tires are listed as “absolete sizes” and appar ently there will be no restriction on dealers disposing of present stocks of these. At the present time the one thing which is very plain is that the vast majority of car owners will have no chance to secure tire replacements for a long time to come and that the thing for them to do is reduce use of their cars as much as possible and operate their cars at speeds and in a manner that will cause the least possible tire wear.
