have rolled mp 56s yards with
80 good passes In 50 attempts.
while Lappanbush's gridders
have-in three games-mark-
ed 1873 yards with 10 good

intercepted, and three of
Belllngham's throws have been
donated 10 opponents.
Pacific Lutheran has registered
104 points-nine touchdowns by
passing. seven by rushing and
eight points after touchdown.
Twenty-six numbers have been
checked by Western Washington
one touchdown by a pass, three
by rushing and two extra points.
Both teams will appear on the
field Saturday in good shape. Two
of the Vikings were bruised in
scrimmage last week but are ex-
pected to be ready for the scrap.
They are Captain Don Bell, end,
and John Cornwell, guard.
Olson plans TO start his
touchdown twins-Captnin Sig

be the first starting assign
ment Sigurdson has had this
season; he has been recovering
from knee operations suffered
this summer.
At guards - George Broz and
Lolly Jungck will be at their
regular jobs, with George Thor
leifson possible last : minute

Down from Bellingham comes
the news that the WWC gridders

ing defense. If they manage to
thwart Lutheran Marv Tommer-
vik's toss-attempts, 1t viii be the
first time this season.

WASHINGTON-Mass delivery
by the aviation industry Of thou
sands of planes ordered by the
United States and foreign coun-
tries will begin within the next
80 days, it was learned today.
A survey by the United Press
revealed that the industry has been
engaged in the greatest mass pro-
duction era of its history as a re-
suit of huge foreign orders for
wartime needs and the domestic
demand for a vastly expanded ma
tional defense program.
Authoritative sources said that
aviation plants working at ca
pacity, have filled foreign and do
nestle orders for 1,450 combat
planes and still must complete
1900 for the army. navy and for
eign purchasers.
Foreign orders, principally Brit
ish and French. have totaled 5000
planes. According to estimates by
authoritative sources. 100 of
them have been delivered or are
ready for delivery.
The army and navy have placed
orders for 4,450 aircraft. Only
$50 Of these-all for the army
have been delivered.

The lecture auditorium in Medi-
cal Arts tower was filled to ca
pacity and some Is to so persons
were turned away. The forum was
the concluding feature of a weeks
program arranged by health au-
thorities and the public health
council to focus attention on the
war on venereal diseases.
DIR. Walter Clark OF New York,
executive director of the American
Social Hygiene association, was
the speaker who called attention
to impending slashes in federal
appropriations for control work.
Program Expanding
He said that the expanding pro-
gram had been started on con-
gressional appropriations of So
DOC. 900 annually for the years 1887
and 1898; $4,000 for 1s3s-40;
and a proposed $1,000, 900 for the
fiscal year 1940-41. 1t appears
now, he said, that the coming
years allotment may be cut to
$1,000. 900. If the program is to
succeed, it is essential that the full
$1,000, 900 be retained in the bud
get, DR.. Clark asserted, and he
urged the public to contact their
congressman in support of the en-
tire amount.
DR.. L. E. Powers, Tacoma city
health director, estimated reduc-
ton of the appropriation would
reduce Tacoma's allotment from
$4,000 year to about 1880. The
federal money is distributed
through state health departments
where proper control programs
are in operation.
Both Sexes Attend
The audience OF young and old
of both sexes heard DIR. Charles F.
Engels in broad discussion of the
entire subject of social hygiene,
including sex hygiene, the mar
riage relation and general proven
ton of venereal infections.
DR.. c. Dietrich, formerly of the
University of Pennsylvania, lee
tured on the subject of syphilis.

and county health departments and

public welfare, education. state
lands and other state functions.
The jury recommended that all
auditing of code departments,
which are under the governor Q
control, should be vested with
State Auditor Cliff Yelle. All
elective officials, including Yelle.
should have their affairs audited
by the department of finance,
budget and business, II said.
Law Is Weak
Because the governors budget
division audited all other code de-
partments under him. the jury said
its auditors frequently uncovered
Irregularities which went I'M
punished. II recommended full
publicity be given such auditors
reports.
''The jury finds that the statutes
covering such matters have no
teeth In them. and that even
though Irregularities are brought
to light through proper auditing,
very seldom does it result in cor
receive measures" the report said.
1t pointed out that code auditors
back in 1888 discovered a S34, 900
diversion of funds in the labor and
industries department, but nothing
was done about 1t and the diver
sion to pay salaries and wages
grew In 1889 to 100000.
Praise Il Voiced
Charges against Yelle's auditing,
in other counties where defalca-
tons have been found, were not
lodged with the jury and would
have been outside its jurisdiction
II they had been, the jury said.
Turning to the department Of
conservation and development, the
jury commended it for efficient
administration and outstanding
achievements within its field"
Several complaints made against
Insurance Commissioner William
A. Sullivan were found to be with
out basis. the report said. The jury
recommended that the legislature
take steps to prevent misrepre-
senting of group insurance being
sold by some companies to indus
trial workers with resultant losses
to insured workers.
