Fat Wonderland

Though it was the current Wash
ington slogan that we must fight
our way to victory, we cannot pro-
duce our way to it," the production
curves were moving rapidly upward
on the heels of congressional appro-
priations upward of II billions of
dollars for war purposes.
One returned war correspondent
said coming back to America was
like returning to a ''fat wonderland
Of food and furs and frills.''
Leon Henderson warned America
along the same line, saying that
there was something like a Is billion
difference between the purchasing
power of the people and the value
of purchaseable commodities-that
we were not saving enough, buying
enough bonds, but had too much
money to buy things we couldn't
get.
The newsman had said, simply,
we were ''too fat'' and ''not lean
enough" He said his first thought
was "can this country be at WARP"
Yet DR.. Gallup, in his poll of
public opinion seemed to feel that
the general public was far ahead of
the political leaders in their concept
Of what was needed in the way of
spirit and realization.
Whatever the public or the lead
ers were thinking or doing, produc-
ton was going ahead, faster and
faster, in wider and wider sweep
Of providing the materials neces-
sary for war.
And millions of men had regis
tered for selective service, ready to
man the guns that were being built,
and the planes, the tanks and the
ships.

 LAST NIGHT
MaIamute sand CheeGha kos Win-Next Games
 Friday in Douglas
SCORES LAST NIGHT Hilicrest Bows to Malamutes, 39-z5 Cheechakos Biitzkrieg Beavers,
 44-lS

The Malamutes' speed was too much for the Hillcresters last night and the latter fell to de- feat 39-25. The main trouble With the Hillcrest squad was that they didn't shoot often enough when they had possession of the ball. Instead they tried to work the ball under a basket guarded by a tricky pair of guards.
 Johnson of the Malamutes was the leading scorer with six field goals and a free throw for l3 points. He scored from all angles of the court and showed some fancy ball handling to the crowd 'of spectators that turned out for Hthe contest in the Juneau Hi gym Lundeberg and Calkins scored ten points apiece to keep the Malamutes in front from the open ing whistle.
 Second Game
 The second game of the eve ming pitted the fast stepping Chee- chakos against the Beavers, a team that has shown power in its last game against the Falcons. The game wasn't as much of a runaway as the score shows and here again the losing team had as it's main fault the lack Of shooting at the basket when it had the chance. The Beavers are far from a weak team and may score an upset at any time Shork-Smith & Co. were a perfect combination and the writer still can't figure out how this team lost to the Wages the other evening. Tn e writer shall have to list it as the upset of the season so far.
 Shork, the leagues leading SCOT CT, scored five field goals while his partner, Smith. was busy sink ing six. Shorty" Powell surprised everyone by sinking five field goals and a free throw for total of eleven points.
 The finest center in the league, is without a doubt, Pennock. He was all over the court and is a constant spark plug to his team. The Beavers just couldn't seem to get organized, but last night might have been their off night, a thing that each team must have. Watch these Beavers because if they click in their next games you will see some real basketball and pro- bably a big upset for some league leader
 The next games will be played in Douglas between the Bruins and St. Louis Blues and the Cheecha- kos vs. the Malamutes. These games will be played Friday evening, De- cember 18

I tell this little story to lead up to something I heard at local bar the other evening while trying to dig up some local sport news. A man in uniform was taking a verbal shellacking from one of the town citizens. He told the uniformed man that the Army trucks were a menace to civilian traffic that a bar was h--- of a place to fight war and that he wished the whole darn army would go home. The uniformed one listened for some time and being a gentleman, resisted from starting private war. He kept listening as the rattlebrain kept going finally he was un- able to take the abuse any longer and explained that his job was to take orders and were he given the que to sail on Tokyo he would be more than happy to do so, but until that time he guessed that he would keep his mouth shut and swing along with Uncle Sam whom he figured knew best, and would be mighty pleased if the obnoxious fellow on his elbow would do the same. The fellow shut upl Nov that I recall the incident I don't remember seeing War Bonds stick ing out of the blabbermouth's pocket and I recall that he is also within the draft age These fel- lows in uniform are ready to give their lives for this country so let's refrain from making these un- American wind gusts on the spun of the moment
