the enemy and how to keep from
being kicked.
Nothing fancy here. It's all
rough-and-ready, hard work, tough
ening up. No frills. And they eat
it up. These kids are great. They
average around % years and most
of them never had chance for any
form of athletics before. They find
out what it does for them in just a
few weeks.
Building Confidence
"What we are working on beyond
fitness" Jack said, sis speed and
poise. But more than all, confidence
in themselves.
"When they first come here they
have no confidence at all. In about
three weeks they are different fell
lows - heads-up, come-and-try-to-
take-me fellows"
Jack moves around Hey, keep
punching = keep punching = keep
those hands up-what's the trouble
one in the stomach? Well, take a
little. rest. Then 60 and get him."
You would be more than surprised
to see the difference between first
week classes and classes.
The improvement in speed, skill,
poise, toughness and stamina is
amazing.
Each group gets two hours day
of this in addition to coast guard
duties, and that leaves little time
for any resting spots. Putting in
eight or nine hours day, Dempsey
at 2l0 looks as fit as he did at Maui
NEE Bay % years ago. AS fast?
That's something else that belongs
only to youth.
about Louis and Conn
I asked Jack what he thought
about the heavyweight situation.
CATER another year in the army"
Dempsey said, "neither Louis nor
Conn can expect to be near the old
fighting form. Louis isn't kid any
longer. A years layoff, or longer
layoff, is sure to tell heavily on his
speed, his timing and his reflexes.

punch coming, but seeing it too
late-or rather, not being able to
call on my refexes in time-is some
thing else.

army two years, it will be a mira
Gle if either ever can come back to
championship. form. Both are great
fighters and great fellows. But army
training is entirely different from
the speed and the sharpness you
need in. the ring.
"And there's that thing they cal

no team. play between them.
"Joe. and Billy may be better thar

DAIRY MANPOWER'

Df11AC MIAMI SVGAS
Fortnight Sen. Berkeley Bunker
of Nevada had long talk with the
President the other day on the war
manpower problem, in which he en-
phasized the need of swift action to
meet the labor shortage on dairy
farms.
''I'm from a farm area myself
and I know what these dairy people
are up against, said Bunker. Gun
less we move fast we will have a
serious shortage next year. Already,
many farmers are beginning to
slaughter their dairy herds because
they can't get help to tend. them"
The President admitted the prob
lem was serious, and assured Bunk
er that the War Manpower commits
sion was aware of it. He added,
however, that he doubted any steps
the government might take. to re-
lieve the farm labor shortage would
be complete answer.
"The government can't solve this
alone" said Roosevelt. "We are
going to have to depend on the farm
ers themselves for individual initia-
tive. I'll give you an example. of
what l mean"
The President then told how a
neighbor of his in New York state,
owning large dairy, farm, had
partly solved his labor shortage by
employing students. from a. nearby
high school to milk the COWS,
"Boys did the milking in the morn
ing and group of girls from the
same school took over in the after
noons," he said. e.s,..
"That sounds Like good idea, Mr..
President" observed Senator Bunk
er, "but it isn't exactly a new one.
When I was boy on a Nevada
farm, I used to milk 10 cows every
morning before school and 10 at
night. And 1 had to ride eight miles
to school on bus"

llNl Akl
Gault, because they all liked him,
too thes also in social service
work, being the boys worker at
Georgetown Children's House,.
but they thought it was wonder
full to have de Saussure ex-
changed for name like Gault-
and now, ironically enough, they
can't seem to remember the
Gault and still call her Miss de
Saussure!
She and her husband both
come from the same town, Green
vile, S. c. After she was gradu-
ated from Winthrop College in
South Carolina she went to New
York City for some practical
training in social service work.
She also got some in the Vir-
ginia mountains, and she has
gotten a lot more in these 10
years in Washington. Right now
she's busy getting things organ
lied for Christmas. She and DR..
Tucker have a theory that needy
parents would rather play their
own Santa Claus. That instead
of a Christmas basket that some
one else has chosen for your chill
dren, it's much more fun to do
the choosing yourself and the ar
ranging. So they give money to
those Pensioners who need it and
let them have the fun of the plan
ming and the shopping. Money
for this work is raised through
contributions from members of
the congregation and from others
interested in this particular So
cial service.

The meeting is called a ''confer-

the problem Will be discussed. Bu'
the real reason back Of the meeting
according to unofficial reports from
the federal War agencies, is that the
average state and local official, like
the average citizen, is yet to realize
the dangers ahead.
Ask the average man, mayor OF
governor whether he thinks there is
any chance that private cars may
be requisitioned and taken from
transporting workers to and from
INDUSTRY. Nine out OF Ten Will say
no. Maybe they are right but hardly
a week passes that communications

If the war lasts long enough there
is little doubt that it will be done
Staggering Of opening hours in or

be discussed at the meeting. The
appointment Of a state transportation
official is expected in the near fu-
ture.
