A TREMENDOUS JOB TO
INCREASE OUR PRODUCTION

In this emergency we have tried to
do our part. We secured tie country
for raw materials---our traffic manager
spent his days riding freight ears in
We shipped raw materials in carload
lots by express and pleaded with man
ufacturers to increase their deliveries
to us.
But it was a slow process. Some of
cur raw materials are produced only
in Japan-supplies in this country were
low and shipments required three
months to come from the Far East.
Then we had to recrit and train skill
cd labor. We brought our statesmen in
to the factory and trained them as fore
men. We invented new machinery, and
managed 10 install it on Christmas day,
50 rs not to interfere with our daily
production.

SALEM HIGH QUINTET
WINS CHAMPIONSHIP

The crowd that throngcd the univer
sity gy&asium Saturday evening were
treated to range of basket ball that
ran fron vaudeville up to the profes
sional class, and the number of laughs
passed around were worth the price of
admission.
The evening opened with the consol-
alton finals, played by Drain and New
berg. 1t was pretty much on one side
hike the handle of jug, the Newberg
team leading from the beginning,
though fouls and wild throws marked
the work of botA teams. The game re-
suited in score of 39 to l3 in favor
of Newberg.

This was followed by the champion
ship finals between Salem and Nc
Minnyille, which proved a racy, snappy,
spectacular game, in spite of the fact
that -alem was feeling the effects Of a
hard game in the af fternoon With the
exception of several personal fouls, the
playing was good throughout and for a
time the teams were very evenly match
ed with Salem leading. A number of
long distance throws on the part Of
Latham, Grant and Staley brought ap-
plause, and the lightning ball passing
on the part Of the local team brought
a lot more. The first half ended with
Salem leading by six points, and the
game wound up with score of 26 to
II in favor of Salem.
There followed an orgy of applause
school yells and congra tulations. For
he second time the championship cup
is handed to Salem and will now remain
in their possession, in additioneto the
championship shield.
