New Economy

BY ARNOLD DERLITZKI

CHICAGO, Nov. 3 - tA) -
Collegiate football not only Is
continuing its trend toward
greater offense under wartime
conditions, but it is doing 1t win
an even greater economy OF ef-
fort.
The nations gridiron teams
were averaging 222.8 yards a
game on the basis of figures re-
leased today by the American
Football Statistical Bureau. This
C impaired with a 1941 final av-
erage of 221.8 yards per team
per game.
And where last years Colleg-
ians averaged a point for every
1C yards gained, they're getting
that point this year by travelling
only IS yards. AS a result, 1912
teams are Boosting of "a 14.98
point game average to the
1878 of last year.
The statistical Bureaus reason
for it was-greater scoring H.
nesse and even better coaching
methods.
The advance in total offense
can be attributed to superior
running attacks for at forward
passing the country's footballers
slipped from l941 when they
averaged 80.6 yards per game
and also established a record for
percentage of compilations.

The Editor Leaves

Francis Fosnight has left for Denver Colorado this
week. after serving longer editor of the Cooperaor than
anyone before him. Previous editors had habit of leaving
Greenbets newspaper the downgrade they left the
editorshp In December 1910 Editor Fosnght found him
self in charge of dwinding staff and hazardous finances
During the months that followed he may have left much
to be desired in the eyes of residents but he put
paper each week He worked out formula for changing
from photoofset process to regular printed paper
He cooperated with Business Manager William R. Stewart
in building up a relative stability for the publications
finances And this month"; just before leaving he enjoyed
the return of sports to columns.
1t has been long full term of community service
filled with pickering threats of lawsuit threats of organ
lied boycott petty politics, enmity and noncooperaon
by several individuals in town. Francis Fosngh deserved
something better for his work. but amateur editor of
a voluntary smaown newspaper expects much. He does
his job because he likes the workor maybe because he is
just darn fool
We sorry to lose Mr.. Fosnigh from the community
have lost many outstanding civic leaders in recent
months and ll-aford We only hope for
placements. Cest la guerre!

Railroads Ordered To
Ignore All State Train
Length Laws, Report

Washington, D. G. (ILNS). - The
Interstate Commerce Commission has
ordered all railroads to operate trains
without regard to state laws limiting
the length or number of cars. Such
laws, supported and passed at the
instance of organized labor, are de-
signed to promote railroad safety,
Some states limit the length of
freight trains to not more than one
half mile and the number of cars in a
train to not more than 70 and in a
passenger train to Ia or 16.
Compliance with these practices in
the present emergency, the commission
said, "may result in congestion of
tracks and terminals, wasteful use of
locomotives and interference with the
free flow of traffic necessary in the
present emergency"

Train-loads of labor being shipped
across the continent
Because where Kaiser is building
ships there is a famine in labor
War factories hesitate to open up,
where bombs could drop
Meanwhile we are building ships
faster than the submarines
Can get over here to sink them.
Gold miners
Are called out of the gold mine
shafts
To get busy on really important
jobs of mining copper
Which is too valuable to be just
buried in old Kentucky
We throw away auto-making tools,
sending them to junk piles
So that mechanics can use shops and
equipment for making tanks
We thought we could supply this
war, with our surplus men
Wnlle gong right on, making Ja-
lopies and silk shirts
Doing both jobs with that little be-
hind-hand, easy
With plenty of time for ball-games
and prize fights
But we discovered that TOTAL
WAR is something else.
Do you remember
When Hitler was Dragging about
democracies breaking down
Because we had millions of unem-
ployed in America
While National Socialism had job
for all it's men
And there was something over there
for everybody to do?

Meanwhile training pretty gals how
to hold welding torches
America must match output of Hit
ler's enslaved European millions
Ii we are to enable Russia to hold
Stalingrad-
While slowly creeping up on our
own job of getting into this fight.
All right!
We've got to blanket Germany with
bombers-
Nazi cities and armies must feel the
steel tracks of our tanks
Nazi submarines must find ships
too thick to be all sunk
Hitler's fool followers must learn
they are between starvation
And the dead-line of American de-
termination
So, if there are not enough men to
do that job
Every American son and daughter
can and will
DO TWO MEMS JOBS.

TELLS A.F.L. MEETING

Toronto (ILNS).-The workers can

President Roosevelt declared in mes
sage to the American Federation of
Labor in siXty-second annual conven-
tion here. The message praised la
boris war efforts and expressed the
Presidents cordial appreciation" of
all the workers have done to increase
production.
"Our production record speaks for
itself and for the working people; it
is splendid" the President wrote
Everywhere during my recent in
spection of war activities, / found the
workers doing all that was laid out
for them and more At every turn
they gave assurance that they can
take whatever it takes to win this war.
"They are not afraid of hard, con-
tinuous, precise and dangerous work.
They are walking up to it as their
duty and part in the war. They are
proud of it."
The President acknowledged an in
vitation to attend the convention and
expressed regret that the press of war
affairs prevented him from accepting.
William Green, president of the fed
GRAFTON, answered that the A. F. of L.
Twill respond to any request the Presi-
dent may make and every order which
he may issue as Commander-in- Chief
of the Army and Navy"
"Please note," he added, che stated
that he found on his trip, not that he
was informed, that the service of the
workers of our country was splendid.
That strikes me very deeply, as
know it strikes you"
at confirms the claims that we have
made that the soldiers of production
are measuring up to the high stand
ards set for us by the President of
the United States"

LABOR SHORTAGE!

LABOR SHORTAGEi
Who would ever have thought that
would happen?
Not so long ago, they were turning
skilled machinists out to grass
Too many mechanics! Trade unions
could not take them all in
You had to be under 40 years, to
get even a pleasant look
In Virginia coal mines, you must
have a yellow card
Railroad men "took vacations" to
keep their places on the rolls
Even industrial engineers had their
out-of- job clubs
Farm families foated about, in old
Ford caravans
Expert carpenters built hobo towns
of tin cans and crates
But now, labor is almost as scarce
as sugar
We have labor rationing, labor draft,
freezing labor to the job
