Would Create
: Shrine At Burton

A suggestion for the disposal OF the
box taken from the cornerstone Of the
old Burton College which was opened
at the reunion last September has
been made by Alex Smith. 1t is the
most logical suggestion that base been
made to date, and would constitute q
unique and happy project for the
former students to perform for their
Alma Mater.
Mr.. Smith states that in his opinion
the box should be re-interred, and
while the place of Its disposal may
not mark the corner Of the old school.
1t would create a shrine for recurring
reunions and later, when the alumni
has expired, for their children who
may be taught to cherish the tradi-
lions Of the College which once from
the hilltop overlooked the inner and
outer waters Of Quartermaster Harbor.
The project, Mr.. Smith has in mind
is that during the interval before the
next reunion additional data, such as
photographs of the college as 1t was,
Its history. rolls Of scholars, ETC., be
added to the original items 1t con-
tanned, and the box resealed, Then
at a time when sufficient means for
the work had been contributed by the
alumni the box shall be placed in
concrete and an appropriately worded
tablet conveying the significance of
the memorial be unveiled on cairn
Of native stone, constructed in an at
tractive design upon site selected for
landmark location somewhere near
the former site Of the college.
This would create unique object
and without doubt attract the atten-
ton Of generations Of Burton visitors.

TO OUR CONTRIBUTORS.

This year the News-Record force
wants to celebrate Thanksgiving, just
like regular human beings, so we are
asking that all news items be sent in
as early in the week as possible. In
self-defense we shall have to name
Tuesday noon as the dead-line If we
are going to get the paper into the
mail on Wednesday afternoon. Last
year through your cooperation we were
able to accomplish this feat, so here's
hoping we can do SO again this year.

Vashon Defeats
Monroe rs To I
(By Frank Plumb

(By Frank Plumb)
Friday the 18th held no terrors Or
bad luck for the Vashon high football
eleven, and to prove 1t they emerged
victorious over Moran 26-7. Two weeks
before Moran defeated vashon 60
The game was very interesting in the
first, second, and third quarters. but
The last quarter Va mt very exciting.
The Moran squad hAa only one alb-
stitute and therefore were very tired
in the last quarter but they put up a
game battle all the way.
vashon started off in the first
quarter and scored their first touch
down. Then, in the latter part of the
second quarter Moran scored their
only touchdown. From the second
half to the finish. the game was de-
cidedly in vashon's favor.
The whole vashon squad saw &C.
ton at sometime during the game and
every man gave o good account Of
himself There was a fairly large
crowd to witness the game which was
held at the Burton field due to the
fact that the Vashon high field was
too muddy and was unfit to play on.
The last football game OF the wash
in high gridmen this season will be
played at the high school field the
day before Thanksgiving. The game
is with Fife. vashon and Fife played
to 90 tie in the first game of the
season. The return game should be
an exciting, hard fought exhibition
Fife would like to beat Vashon more
than any other team and the same
can be said for vashon. So come on
Island fans! This is your last chance
to see your own boys in action this
season.

also, SO that they may get first-hand
the outline of the work to be carried

desire.
A new group being formed this year

MY Dear Mrs. smock: 1t has been

mend the leaders and members on the
high quality of All Club work which
they have done this year. The ex-
hibits showed fine piece of work in
foods.
1.-THE first years work makes one
feel that there is much promise for
the future. Your community should
be proud Of It's All Club folks and

COAL AND STEEL
ACTIVITY NOTED
U. S. Employment Service
Reports Increased Forces
In These Industries.

Sustained increase in employment
was noted in some industries during
| october by the Labor Department.
According to a bulletin issued by
John r. Alpine, supervising director
of the United States Employment SerV-
ice, plants manufacturing tobacco
| products increased their forces and OPP
Grated on full time schedules in prac-
tically all instances. The Improvements
recently noted in coal mining con-
| tinued, Alpine said, and large numbers
Of coal miners who have been idle for
some months past were absorbed.
| The director asserted that while op-
Grating schedules remained below nor
NAL in many of the iron and steel mills,
the outlook in this industry was much
brighter than during September, with
every indication pointing to an early
increase in production and employ
ment.
Activity In Radio Plants.
He said some increase in activity
was noted in several of the larger radio
factories and the forces engaged were
augmented in 8 few instances. Part
time operation prevailed in most of the
plants manufacturing automobiles and
automobile accessories. However, prep
arations were under way for the in
PRODUCTION Of new models soon, which
will mean considerable increase In
employment among these workers, &C
cording to the bulletin.
With curtailed schedules prevailing
| in large number of the industrial
establishments" Alpine said, much
employment was still In evidence
throughout October which embraced
practically all trades.
| Some increase In building occurred
which resulted in employment of many
additional building tradesmen, but large
SURPRISES of skilled building craftsmen
were apparent In the larger cities.
Highway construction continued in a
large volume for this time of the year
and provided employment for thousands
of men in practically every State.
Highway Funds Released.
Additional funds have recently been
made available for the expansion of
! road construction in quite a number of

States, which will mean continued en-
ployment for many highway workers
as long as weather conditions permit. =
THE harvesting of the various Fall
crops engaged the services of thousands
of workers, but some decrease in the
demand for this class of help occurred
the latter part of the month"
The bulletin said that while there
was slight improvement in employ
ment in certain lines in the District of
Columbia, considerable unemployment
prevailed throughout the month, which
included skilled and unskilled laborers,
clerical help and domestic laborers
The large volume of Federal building
continued to employ a great number of
tradesmen, plumbers and sheet metal
workers, but there was not sufficient
work of this nature under way to alb
sorb the available supply of this class
of labor.
