HARRISBURG ACADEMY TROUNC
ED IN RAIN AND MUD

Russell Faber's victory-starved
West Nottingham Academy gridiron
machine bloomed in the rain on the
Colora field last Saturday and
trounced Harrisburg Academy, II
to 0, the latest score ever run up
by a Maroon eleven.
Robert (Steppin' Fetchit) Jenk-
ins, of Rising Sun, made-over half
back playing his first game as var
sity quarterback, drove the starting

extra points. Then in the second and
fourth periods he took the second
stringers and engineered three more
touchdowns and another extra point
In addition to calling the plays in
this scoring spree, Jenkins threw 10
forward passes, nine of which were
completed for 209 yards, and four
of which went for touchdowns. He
also blocked in the quarterback po-
sition and did the punting. High
scorer was right halfback Franz
Holscher, of Rocky Mount, N. c.,
with three touchdowns, followed by
Fullmer and Cameron with two each
and Wayne Reynolds, Brooke, Over
cash, and Robert Hills, one each.
Harold (Doc) Cooper, of Perry
vile, the Maroon starting right end,
caught three of Jenkins heaves for
a total of 6S yeards, but never quite
made it over the goal line.

W. I. GRANT 60. TO HOLD SALE

 Standards Maintained

The local W. T. Grant store at l65 Bank street, will celebrate the S5th anniversary of the founding of the company in Q great 9-day sale start ing tomorrow morning, according to an announcement today by Dem his J. Scannell manager of the store.
 'sThis is an important milestone," !" MT. scannell declared, "highlighting year In which we have greatly in- creased the variety of merchandise we carry and have introduced many new lines in response to customer demand. Grant stores have always been family stores and now, more than ever, we are ready to serve the needs of every member of the fam ily."
 MT. scannell also pointed out that the standards of quality which Grant customers all over the coun- try have learned to expect of Gran. merchandise would be maintained regardless of increasing costs. "Tn many cases, we have been able to keep our prices down long after pre- vailing prices have risen, and this we will continue to try to do as long as no compromise with quality

ter several revlsions since January, the government expects to collect approximately 9ll ,09e, 900, 900 in rev- enue in this fiscal year, to spend approximately e24,Ssi 900, 900 and to end the fiscal period on June 30, to42 with 6 whopping 9i2,6e3 ,O00, 900 dee felt. That compares with 9T,607,- 000,0O0 revenue last fiscal year, ti2,- 7i0,0OO,000 of spending and Q $6,- 103 ,Oo0,000 deficit.
 Smith revealed l days ago that spending for this fiscal year would include approximately $ie, 900 900 900 for national defense. That leaves about 96,5sl ,QO0, 900 of ron.defense spending in which to search for the economies sought by the Senate finance committee.
 Different Problem
 But that fat figure breaks down further to make the problem more difficult. Of that sum, MT. Roose- welt estimates that 93,iA6, ,O00, 600 are fixed expenditures such as in- terest, pensions and insurance benz efits the fiscal year interest charge being paid by the treasury for the use of borrowed money is 1l,22S,- 900 900. That is the interest on the public debt.
 MT. Roosevelt figures that the re. maining @ 900, 900 900 or 50 of ex- penditures are almost as fixed" = Appropriations for which Congress has made specific commitments such as security grants to the states, federal highway aid and the 90 per cent of tariff revenue set aside by Congress for redeeming surpluses. There is no evidence yet of determination anywhere to take the risks involved in substantial reductions of government spending.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-10-15

The sample budgets have been prepared in response to . commit tee resolution calling for subn1is- sion of three tentative budgets de- signed, respectively, 10 reduce noT- defense spending by q 900 900 900, ei,600,000,000, and e2,0O0 ,00o, 900.
 It Is understood that the budget bureaus ample revisions include deep cuts In National Youth Ad- ministration, civilian Conservation Corps and Work Relief Appropria- tons. The NXC and eco were al- lotted 93e2 BD0.0O0 in the current fiscal year budget and work relief aggregated e1,O3I, 100000.
 Secretary of Treasury Henry Mor- genthau, jr., suggested but did not itemize budget cuts of 1i,00O, 900 900 year in . recent appearance on Capitol Till but President Roosevelt has not underwritten any such project end neither hes Congress given any indication that it Is ready to cut expenses by such Q sum in the politically sensitive items that are susceptible to trimming. Mir. Roosevelt time and again has told his press conferences that he has invited amateur budgeteers to run their pencils down the list of gov- ernrnent expenditures and to mark those where big cuts should be made.
 Revive Old Fight
 N appears( therefore, that Sub- mission of tcday's sample budgets to the Senate finance committee mezely will revive the hot contro- versy over economy unless the pres- ident and Congress can make tip their minds and agree where and how much to cut.

their toll When--through no act or fault Of theirs--they find them- selves with their homes, their acres and their harbors in the path of war and in the line of gunflre. They find themselves drawn away from their green fields and their peace- full valleys, alert on the solid rock of their coastlire, ready to meet and resist those who would rob them of that which they prize as dearly as life; nay, more dearly than life itself. Again they stand. where they always stood, ready and unafraid to defend with their lives and with their limited resources, their free- dom, whose portals they have but just entered. They well know their danger. They realized 1t last year when they sent out call for volun- teers. 250000 responded to that call --250 900 men out of Q population of about three million people! And, at this very moment, they are en- gagged in moving their women and children from the zones of imme- diate danger They have the men, they have the will. They are valiant soldiers, but they arc without the means to fight powerful, ruthless mechanized aggressors. They have appealed to the American people for arms and ammunition. They have not asked for gifts. They are willing to pay for these arms.
 DeValera's Appeal
 This is what DeValera said in the talk to the American people last Christmas:
 "What I would like to say to
 our American friends tonight who
 have SO often before stood by us
 In our hour of trial Is this: Help
 us In the first instance to secure
 these weapons. We are, of cOurse,
 ready to pay for what we get ss.
 This appeal is now before the American people. America cannot, and I have the faith America will not. let this appeal go unheeded.
 For America hates aggression and brute force, and in the face of tIlTCdtS Ol tkkIebSlOLl HItIGIACb Liuo spoken, through our President, in terms and tones 50 eloquent and clear that none can mistake or mis- interpret where her people stand or what they stand for. There may be differences of opinion as to methods most effective to meet these threats, but there is no doubt that freedom loving, democratic Ameri- ca will resist aggressors
 The friendship of the peoples of Ireland and America is not some thing that is born out of favor able trade agreement or courteous diplomatic messages passed between their representatives. It is not even based on blood relationship alone. It is based on the fact that the people of both countries have the same underlying love of freedom and the same innate hatred of tyranny, friendship founded on such solid basis will never be upset. It has served both peoples well in days gone by. It will serve them well in the days to come and In their present emergency. The people of Ireland should not be forsaken in their hour of trouble.
