The picture generally painted
Is that II the Nazi drive on the

succeed in crossing the Caucasus
To the Caspian sea, the Soviet
would be done for.
In more detail the picture
presents this prospect. The So

shattered by the loss Of the
Rostov and Stalingrad areas
and the Volga river itself cut.

Caucasus area. That loss would
be a bitter blow. but not insur-
mountable, for the Soviet would
stu have the effective produe-
ton Of her two largest Industrial
areas. Moscow and Leningrad.
There Is also the further re-
port that behind the ural noun

Street Dances

Now that the of automobiles has been curtailed,
community functions and amusemens again assuming
place in the scheme of things held in the earlier
days of country. Since cannot jump into the
and to the the ball the theater at
time that suits fancy, beginning to develop
pronounced community spirit We being forced
to make fun and entertainment in and
homes.
The street dances being held in the center of
the evidences of this healthy outlook The dances fill
ing decided need and hope that ideas for
munity entertainment will develop.
There are think, couple of improvements that
could be made in conducting the dances One of the
plants reported that grandparents, parents high
school students and sxyearold dancing in the
place at the time. We suggest segregation either
by dividing the dancing by alternating dances
among the age groups This would eliminate danger to
the youngsters and confusion for older persons and give
greater enjoyment to everyone.
1t is apparent also that the dances should be more
thoroughly polced Some "smartalec tricks have been
reported and order insure the most fun for ALL such
things should be curbed

To the Editor---
Poor Joe
To the Editor

To the Editor:
Please print the following. letter
to that poor, misguided fellow,
Joseph Fitzpatrick, who thinks
Sunday morning is a morning for
undisturbed sleep.
When | first read your letter, !
was genuinely amazed. AS | read
it the second time, | firmly resolv-
ed to set you straight on few
points.
First, what do you think the
church bells ring for? Your own
discomfort? Well, you're wrong.
They message they have for you Is
softly pleading. 1t is a joyous
call. Haven't you ever heard this
verse to well-known hymn?
GLOW sweet on bright Sabbath
morning
To list to the clear-ringing bells.
Their voices so sweetly are calling:
Oh, come to the church in the dell.
Besides this grave misconcep-
ton, you seem to have others. For
instance, you stay, Sunday is
the Lords day and not for man to
disturb" You say that piously
with your pen while in your heart
you blackly utter, "1t's mans day
to sleep, and not for tools OF the
Lord to Destroy"
Thirdly, you hide behind a
screen of righteous Indignation,
declaring in harsh words, that you
work nights and need your sleep.
Well, that screen is no good either,
because I, too, work nights weeks
out of 6. But if | ever was lazy
enough, thoughtless enough of my
spiritual life, to life in bed, in
diligently sleeping instead of sit
ting thankfully in sacred place,
listening to the beautiful chimes.
l would certainly keep it to my
self and not advertise it to all. AS
for your precious rest, l pre-
sumo that you'd break it in a
minute if you were asked to GO
fishing or golfing with the gang

cular proposition, i. e.: are the
playing Of chime records sacred
obligation, or are they disturbing
factor? This is clearly amatter OF
Interpretation of an obviously re-
lative question. For example, one
would not relish being awakened
at 8 a. m. from a sound sleep to
hear the works of even as great
master as Beethoven.
A suggested alternative is for
those who enjoy the chimes. to lis
ten within the confines of the cha
pel, relieving those who require
undisturbed, necessary rest: 1t IS
so simple solution and will lnJure
no one.
Six mornings week the writer
arises at $50, returning home
nightly on the 10:30 or II o'clock
bus. The time is spent doing
rather strenuous physical vital
war work since May. I h
writer has been aircraft spotting
from midnight Saturdays and
thus lies down to die shortly after
2 a. m. Sundays. If, after an
average six and half hours sleep
six nights, the writer attempts
to gain special dispensation for an
unbroken seven hours Sunday, he
is labelled intolerant and sacrili-
gious then, verify, it is true that
men and melons are hard to know.
There are indeed many workers
in Greenbelt less fortunate. There
are those who work the entire
night and must use the days. with
their natural noises, for sleeping.
AS for Amigo Fog, someone
should inform him that streetcars
and roosters are not permitted ha-
bitat in Greenbelt, and SO become
two abstruse arguments. Gracias,
AMIGO, for your daring belief that
this writer shall ever spy the
pearly gates. You painted a COM
forting picture, and for the mo-
ment at least, he felt not so
much the lost soul. However, he

CT the bad name noise attendant
our eventual entry into Berlin and
Tokyo. Rather it is this writer's
conviction that the sound will af-
ford a sweet symphony, though
from your distant vantage point
at 80 Ridge Road, even the Green
belt chimes are somewhat muted.
1t is probably appropriate to add
that upon reading your entertain
ing letter, this writer was remind
ed Of the description Benjamin
Franklin gave it in the year 1928

RANGERS FORMED
 BY GAME MEMBERS
Requirements Necessary Outlined By Capt. Need-
 ham Last Night

Naugatuck, Dec. 10 - The Naug- atuck Fish and Game Protective As scciation made plans for the organ ization of unit of the Connecticut State Guard at a meeting Wednes- day night in the court room. Cap tain H. Needham told members of the requirements necessary to organ ize unit and the work required of it. Fred Baker, president, presided.
 Many members filled out applica- tions which must first be passed on before the unit can make actual plans for the organization. It will consist of 25 members to be known as the "Naugatuck Rangers. Each member must pass ap hysical exam ination and be passed on by state police. He must own his own gun and ammunition. The necessity for such unit was pointed out by Cap tain Needham. He said it would op- crate to combat para-troops which might be landed, would be the arm- ed protection of defense plants and water works and would be the first called to case of an invasion.
 Dr. Joseph Sitar was chosen re- cruiting agent for the protected unit.

BLIND PEOPLE TO STAGE SALE
Red Cross Chapter House Secured for All; Day
 Event Tomorrow

Naugatuck, Dec. 10 = There are six hundred blind people in Con- necticut and Naugatuck residents will have the opportunity to assist their education by attending the sale at the Red Cross Chapter house tomorrow from 10 a. m. to p. m.
 The blind people are being in structed in their homes by the State Board of Education for the Blind and many of them are now proficient in making useful articles which will be offered for sale here under the auspices of the state board.
 Sales such as this are held throughout Connecticut and in the course of the year most of the 169 towns of the state are visited by the sales work of the State Board. Tn this way many products made by tht blind people in their homes are sold and the proceeds are turned over tu blind workers. Much local assistance from private individuals willing 70 contribute time and effort in behalf and backing is secured for these sales through churches, lodges, pub- lie officials, business houses and of blind people.
