IPLAN SURVEY
OF FARM LABOR
Plan to Minimize Effect of Elk.
pected Labor Shortage
Next Year Approved
25%o SHORTAGE IN KENT

A survey of farm labor, as part
of a plan being developed to min
imize the effects of an expected
labor shortage next year, was ap-
proved at joint meeting of state
and county labor subcommittee
of the Agricultural Planning Com
mittees. Members urged an early
campaign, beginning in February
or March, to acquaint growers and
cannery operators with the activ-
titles of the Farm Placement Ser
vice, which acts as clearance bu-
reau for migrant and permanent
farm labor. They pointed to ex-
periences of the past season, when
Iall farm operations were hampered
by lack of labor.
25 Percent ShOrtatge in Kent
New Castle County reported a
shortage of men who stay on farms
the year round. This shortage is
estimated at from 25 to so per cent
of normal. However, it was re-
ported all farm operations were
now up to date. A 25 per cent
shortage of labor was reported in
Kent County. 1t was suggested
that the problem can be aided by
obtaining as much migrant labor
for canneries as possible, leaving
local labor available for farms. The
most serious shortage in Sussex
County was during the harvest sea-
son, totaling about 25 per cent.

Students to Take Part
Cornerstones for two new build
ings being constructed on the Uni
versity of Delaware campus at a
total cost of nearly 100000, will
be laid with appropriate ceremony
on Saturday, October 18, it was
announced today by President Wal
ter Hullihen. The two new build
ings are a Mems Dormitory and a
Maintenance Center, both of which
are being erected with funds given
to the University by Mr.. H. Fletch-
er Brown, member of the Board
of Trustees. The principal cere-
mony will take place at IL noon
when the cornerstone to the mems
dormitory will be laid. Since this
building is primarily for the use of
students, University officials have
decided that the cornerstone should
be laid by students through their
representative, Warren w. Grier,
Jr., of Wilmington, a senior who
is president of the Delaware Col
lege Student Council. The cere-
mony, which will be attended by
the student body, the University

and other friends of the University,
will be opened by President Hulli-
hen. Mr.. John G. Leach, president
of the Alumni Association, will

ing which the actual laying of the
cornerstone will take place.

The
What Not Shelf

Mr.. and Mrs. Cranston Holcomb,
and their daughter, of Philadel-
phia, have a novel way of taking
a restful vacation. Mrs. Holcomb
was the former Miss Helen Gra-
ham, who taught school here a
number of years ago. Last Sum
day she and her husband and
daughter set forth on their bicy-
cles for a NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
trip. They reached Smyrna Tues
day night, and announced that Do
yer would be their last stop. From
there they will take the train back
to Philly. Quite an ambitious un-
dertaking, what?
Over Al dollars was earned at
the two rummage sales given by
the Stage Redecorating Commit
tee for a new curtain at the Club
House. The committee hopes to
have the curtain made and up, be-
fore the next Little Theatre Play.
The Little Theatre feels honored
at being asked to bring a one-act
play to Newark, as guests of the
University Drama Group in a three
community theatre playbill on Oc-
tober Both. Several rehearsals of
George" the play chosen to pres
ent again at Newark, have been
held.
AT the Little Theatre meeting
Monday night, some of the club
women were busy in the kitchen
preparing for the luncheon given
for the Presbyterian meet the fol-
lowing day. The tantilizing aroma
of baked apples We were all raw
enous! A bunch went to Liz
Thornley's afterwards, and nearly
ate her out of house and home.
The three-acter, March Hares,
the groups next presentation, is al
most cast, but not quite definite.
Tentatively, Jay Davis, Blanche
Lee, Elizabeth Russell, Clarence
Garis, Bob Bell, Ginny King, and
Bob Burrage will comprise the
cast.
Several of the Executive Com
mittee members have suggested
that Workshop be formed for
those who will take no part in the
play. In this Workshop, the group
could build flats, paint, fix up the
dressing rooms, or work on one
act play to be presented before the
group at a regular meeting. In this
way, everyone would be kept busy,
and much in the way of experiment
could be accomplished.
Dick and Alma Cooch, from
Newark, were our dinner guests
Saturday night, and when they ar
rived, they were burdened with a
gift CAMDEN. what Ho! The
Greeks bearing gifts" we shouted.
In large cardboard box was
generous sample of Dicks garden.
He and three other friends in New
ark Clipped together this summer,
and worked themselves up a
mighty fine garden, on a large
scale. What they couldn't eat,
they canned for the winter months
Which reminds us of another
way of disposing of things you
can't eat. Our old pal, Mary
Challenger always says, What you
can't eat, rub in your hair!
We were told recently that one
of the spoilers at an observation
post excitedly announced the ap-
proach of plane. "Daggone those
buzzards"i he cursed minute lat
er.
We hate to seem so unpatriotic
but we suppose we aren't the only
one who will be relieved when the
fire siren stops that unexpected
wailing.
