Most people probably think that
{. w. does not have reporter
because of the scarcity of arti-
cles and after reading this article
they will knew it, 1t is funny how
during normal times a page and
a half used to be used for Junior
articles and now during this war
period when the spirits should be
really kept high the Editor is
lucky if he gets a half page to
set up. Maybe it is because Of
guys like me that are too lazy
to write or maybe it is because
SO many OF the Saxon boys are
in the armed services. If that is
the case why not use the extra
space to tell about these boys.
Surely there is plenty to talk
about when you hit this subject
because of the large number Of
boys in the services and the diff
ferent places they are stationed
and different ranks.
So maybe is wouldn't be a bad
idea if the officers of the T. S. J.
| A.. (if they 'are not all in the
armed forces) would get some
thing started on it.
Bowling is still going on every
Tuesday and will probably con-
tinue for some time since there
won't be any basketball league
this year.

CPtNldA DlSpatSn 70 Inc SiHE.
NEW YORK, April l8.-With the
constantly increasing flow of many
materials into the war production
program, glass is being hailed as
one of the important substitutes in
the manufacture of civilian goods
the American Glass Review reported
today.
Items never before associated
with glass are due to make their
appearance. The Bureau Of Indus
trial Conservation with the CO.
operation of the industry is COM
pleting a study of possible substi-
tutes. 1t is suggesting surprisingly
number of household and industrial
accessories whose manufacture in
glass will not only be feasible and
practical and affect a vast saving
in critical materials but will open
a market for items whose manufac-
ture otherwise could be made on a
very restricted basis.
II is suggested that a low-coSt
tempered glass bucket would have
a great volume of sales because of
the desire TO have two or three
buckets in every seacoast home for
sand to combat incendiary bomb
fires. Name plates and road mark
ers also would be practical: glass
in storage batteries to save hard
rubber: glass jewel bearings TO re-
place sapphire bearings and glass
handles for umbrellas. racors, elec-
