 age During Fall Season

 In cooperation with the United States Employment Service for Con- necticut, farmers during the past week picked up students at the uni- versity and transported them to farms in New Haven county. The undergraduates are helping to har- vest banner fruit crop which may spoil if not gathered in within the next few weeks.
 Arthur V. Geary, farm placement supervisor for Connecticut, and Vim cent T. Bree, in charge of farm placement for the New Haven office of the U. s. Employment Service, are in charge of the program of get- ting students to work on farms near the university.
 "The labor situation on Connecti- cut farms is getting increasingly difficult due to shortage of work ers," they said, in commenting on the program. we think 1t is a splendid thing that Yale students are doing.
 Our normal source of supply had disappeared both as result of the 1raft and the demands of war in- illstry. The most important weeks for gathering crops are between now md October l when apples, pears and vegetables must be harvested.

NEW ENGLAND TO
 HAVE WAR GAMES
Larger, More Elaborate in Maneuvers; They Will
 Take Place in Fall

Boston, Aug. 31.-(UP)-Larger and more elaborate war games will be held in New England this fall, the first service command said to- day after announcing the successful conclusion" of the most extensive naneuvers in the area to date.
 All units involved acquitted them selveS well and the only major fault revealed was the inadequate motor equipment of the state guards. In many cases, the army announcement said, the state guard had to de- pend on public motor transportation facilities to get to defense sectors.
 The army said mistakes were oi such nature that they taught a great deal to participants" and that the larger maneuvers-involving ad- ditional defense agencies-will profit by the lessons learned.
 The Rd Cross and the Massachu- sets Women's Defense corps took part in the maneuvers along with the army and state guards of the six states. The maneuvers, which end ed last night, stretched from Car bou, Me, to Long Island Sound anc were under the direction of Maj.- Gen. Sherman Miles, commander oi the firse service command.
 About 120 missions" including &C., Sion that would be taken in event of demolished aquaductS, seizure ot airports, railroad wrecks, commando raids and water supply damage were carried out to successful conclu- sion."

Connecticut, while never thought of usually as an agricultural state, has annual crops worth e22, 100000 grown on 21 poo farms. These crops are an important factor in the econ- omic life of the state and are needed both for increasing populations brought into man war industries and for nearby metropolitan areas.
 We hope that other colleges in the state will follow the example set by Yale in helping the farmers get in their crops. This is a splendid way to aid the war effort"
 Students volunteering for farm work are given partial credit on their compulsory physical education program. The details of the plan were worked out in cooperation with the Yale Undergraduate and Uni- verSity War councils. The registra- tion of men for work is directed by Douglas w. Franchot, a sophomore from Baltimore, Md.
