Now the tide has turned again, favorable for our side, a And just now tlie tides everywhere are running our way.--Germany faces the bleak prospect of another winter in Russia; Japan has taken another licking, though probably not a decisive one, at Guadalcanal. ' -.. Under these circumstances, United Nations leaders are making the best possible propaganda use of the trend; are shouting that "the turning point has come." Let's hope so. And though armies have chased each other back and forth across the deserts for more than two years, this time it does look as though our side has set the stage for a knockout blow as far as Rommel's present force is concerned.--: This time there was thorough pre paration; plenty of power was amassed before the attack started.- About another, chase across the desert, it's a bit early to say. 1 Actually, this may be the turning point. Who knows? If this isn't it, it's coming some day. For after all, a battle tide isn't really a tide at all. There always comes a day when it turns one way, and doesn't turn back. high school ews Notes, and ICbmmen:! I'alijilHiiliilii iiiiilll! 1 NT k By ANITA GWYN After what some of those rooks went through yesterday; we might become more formal now and call them at least !f u 1 1 - blooded freshmen, which is their official title. 'Lipstick, shoe w'f f grease adorned their faces. The aromatic odor onions and garlic mingled in the air and some very, funny upper class men sprinkled some , form of itching powder around which gave the. impression that a fleet of flees had invaded KUHS. On the whole, the rooks took the fnlfiafinn In thai 1 -mcteu me source, ut course the traditional habit of washing the senior bench and sidewalk was carried out, and parade's of those attractive freshmen were led around the front lawn. The girls wore boys apparel and vice versa, and the clothes were put on inside out and back to front with mismatched shoes and socks and bonnets to top it all. (Pardon the pun.) Many boys were excused from school Friday to partici pate in the collection of scrap. By. the time classes were dis missed there was a huge pile near the canal ta front of the school. The drive will continue for a while so we can not give you the exact amount that was collected. - ' At the student council meet ing held several days ago, it was revealed that Lettie Lyn man officiated In the buying of three megaphones which will be painted red with white K': These are expected to prevent the yell leaders having hoarse throat the morning after the night before. The Home Economics club held a bakery" goods sale Thurs day and profited by $5.51. While we're on this subject, we might just as well tell you about the display that will be in the Sears Roebuck window Monday after noon and will continue to be there for approximately a week. Several years ago one of Mr. Robinette's wood working class es made a small house. It was furnished once before in a mod ern style, but the second Deriod home economics class 5 remod eled the house in the colonial manner. It is a five-room home with a bath. The tiny furniture is all handmade and so is prac tically . everything else. This work was under the supervision of Mrs. Williamson, home eco nomics instructor. This week was viewed with a sigh of relief after a week of exams, report cards and initia tion. Here's What to Do When Mileage Rationing Starts, And Why It's Necessary OPA today Issued the follow ing questions and answers on mileage rationing: 1. Q. Why is the new plan for rationing gasoline and tires called a mileage rationing pro- grim? A. Because the object is to save rubber by reducing car mileage to the 5000 mile a year national average recommended by the Baruch committee. 2. Q. Does this mean that every car owner gets to drive 5000 miles annually? A. Absolutely not. Owners of registered passenger automo biles, with some few exceptions. are entitled to a basic ration which provides for 2800 miles a year. Each owner will get more mileage only if he shows occu pational need for it. 3. Q. Then, no one will drive more than 3000 miles a year? A. That s not necessarily true. either. Five thousand miles year is the national average to be achieved under mileage ra tioning. Cars used for purposes regarded as essential to the war effort may qualify for more than 5000 miles a year upon proof of need. Purposes Told 4. Q. What specific purposes are regarded as most essential to the war effort? A. The gasoline rationing ree- ulations will list 20 car and mo torcycle uses for which preferred mileage will be allowed. These include such uses as transporting workers to and from Jobs in war production plants, carrying doc tors on professional calls, takine larm produce to market and bringing back farm supplies. 3. Q- What is preferred mile age? A. It is mileage above 470 miles a month. Only drivers in the preferred class can get it. o. . is this the C ration class? - A. Yes. 7. Q. What about drivers who aren't on that list? A. They may get a basic A book. They may also eet a B nook, if they can show occupa uonai neea ana meet the car sharing requirements. 470 Miles a Month 8. Q. Then what mileaee mav the ordinary occupational driver qualify for through the A and B books? a. up to 470 miles a month lor occupational driving. . w. jjo persons who use their cars in driving to work. or in connection with their jobs auKunaucaiiy get supplemental rations through a B or a C book if ride-sharing or other reauire- ments of the regulations are sat isfied? A. No. Only when they prove neea xor more than the basic A dook provides. 10. Q. How much is this? A. The A book provides gaso line for a total of 240 miles a month. Of this mileage 80 miles may be reserved for essential family driving, such as taking 17. Q. Sure, I'll help. But now? A. By taking good care of your tires, by driving carefully, never more than 35 miles an hour. You will help also by having your tires inspected reg ularly, and turning in to the gov ernment all tires you or relations living with you own in excess of those mounted (including one spare per motor vehicle) on mo tor vehicles or equipment. Cer tain tires owned by the dealers and manufacturers aro not to be included in this computation. 18. Q. That's fine, but what have all these things to do with mileage rationing? A. You have to do them to get your ration of gasoline, and maintain your right to use such rations and to have them re newed. 19. Q. Let s start from the be ginning. What do I do first about my tires? A. First, list the serial num bers of every tire which you own or which any relations living in your household owns. 20. Q. I found several sets of numbers on these tires. Which is the right one? A. The serial numbers are al ways indented on the wall of the tire. The other numbers or let ters are raised. What to Do 21. Q. I can't find any Indent ed numbers. They must have been worn off, or rubbed out. A. In that case you need only the brand name of the tire. 22. Q. I have listed all my tire serial numbers. Now what do do with them? A. On the back of the applica tion blank for the basic mileage ration, you will find space write these numbers down. 23. Q. Do I have to do this? A. It is necessary if you hope to get a mileage ration. 24. Q. Do I list all my tires, or just five? A. You must list all passenger oar tires that you own and all that are owned by any relative living at your house. 25. Q. I own only one auto mobile, no other motor vehicle, trailer, or other equipment which passenger tires might be used. I own and list eight tires. What happens? A. The registrar will not issue you a ration. You have to dis pose of those three excess tires first. Call up your nearest Rail way Express agency. They will send some one around to pick up the tires, and arrange to have the government pay you for them you wish. Valuable Paper 26. Q. What happens after list the five tires I am kecnine for my car, and the registrar is sues me my basic book? A. The registrar will also give you that part of the appli cation blank which contains the tire inspection record. 27. Q. I've got to hang on to mat? A. Yes, it is a valuable piece of paper. It will be a record of your periodic tire inspections, a certificate for certain grade of tire or for a recap. 38. Q. What kind of tiro or ro cap will be made available to mc? A. That depends on the type oi mileage ration book you hold, and the use you make of your car. Because of the war emer gency, the idea is to givo no one a better grade of tiro, or more runner than he needs. Special Ration 39. Q. According to Drednt plans, I expect to have my car away from home on November 23 when rationing goes Into ef fect. Will I be able to set a ca. oline ration to drive home after that date? A. While all travel must be reduced to a minimum if wo are to provide tires or recaps for es sential driving, autoists who are caught away from home when rationing goes Into effect will bo eligible for a special ration to get their cars homo. 40. Q. Will this apply to mo torists of the eastern rationed area? A. Yes, if they have their cars outside the eastern rationed area on November 22. But, if any car owned by an eastern motorist Is at some other point In the east ern area, it would not be eligible lor a special ration to be driven home, unless it had been continu ously away from that home since last August 22.
