SO serious mas the housing SnOIt-
age for students become that the
college fathers have lifted strict
rulings for women. If the girls are
lucky enough to find an apartment
they may live there without super
vision. But apartments, students
say, are non-existent.
Three in a bed, finding a room
outside of town, even committing
from their home towns are three
ways the girls are trying to solve
their housing problem.

There are $3.50 goods at the

of 10,050 students.
With global warfare perched on
the steps of Angel Hall. student
body and ADMINISTRATION now seem
ready TO step down out OF the
ivory tower and 60 10 work with
war in mind. Not always has this
been the case. AS late as last June
coke-swilling was a major activity
and the senior ball band choice
was more hotly debated than issue
of war.
In just the last month a new
spirit has begun to manifest itself.
President Alexander Grant Ruth
ven has expressed the new spirit
with his unequivocal demand that
every male student justify his
presence in school with training
toward war duties. The newly re-
vealed probability that practically
every university man will see &C
tive military duty within a year
adds impetus to Michigan's desire
to carry more than its share OF
the war burden.
In cooperation with military in
telligence branches of the army
and navy, intensive courses in
Japanese, Malayan. Chinese and
Russian are preparing students for
highly important war work.
Army and navy ROTC's have
begun an admirable program of
expansion of facilities and building
of unit morale. When Col. William
A. Canoe took command of the
army group less than year ago
il had campus reputation as a
dodge from physical education.
Today the ROTC is realizing its
potentialities. The 1.100-man unit
recently took over a defunct fra
ternity house and at last in spirit
il equals the 200-man naval unit
which organized only two years
ago has already set a splendid
example.

SEWING TO SAVE

A woman of KenneWick says that
one of the most sensible of special
weeks" on our calendar is the sew
and save week. There is a principle
Of reasoning back of it even though
it may originate with 1nerchandiz-
ing in view. Always the guarding Of
family budgets, the using of rem
nants, of altering hens and side
seams, designing new models, comes
into this picture of sewing to save.
Women feel there are so many at
tractive patterns of materials and
guides to assembling and finishing
which makes the work more simple,
that almost anyone can sew today
and do it well. You don't have to
tumble in the dark. Sewing is fas-
cinating work to many women and
when the men folks can't tell wheth-
er the woman wears an outfit that
speaks of large style centers and
actually came from the yard goods
of the local store, then
that is really putting the needle
where it belongs, as we see it.

LOTS OF CARS

LOTS OF CARS
With all of the wailing over the
automobile famine, the disaster in
the cutting down of business to both
manufacturer, dealer and the buying
public, we can take a look back at
last years production of autos and
see where many men saw this COM
ing and bought cars before the
scarcity arose. The Automotive
News sends out its report for the
1941 production of cars and trucks
and its figures are the highest since
the peak in 1929. The total for 1941
production of cars and trucks and its
figures are the highest since the
peak in 1929. The total for 1941 is
over 100000 which proves that
while many garages hold some pref
ty old models that there are a lot of
folks with new cars on hand and
with good treatment they will have
them shining for several years to
come. We do not know what the fuk
ture business will be in the auto
mobile industry and it is using only
common sense to take care Of our
cars today.

WE CAN'T TALK

There has been criticism in Eng
land Of discrepancies on the part OF
the highest office to the lower in the
matter of conducting this war. There
is hardly a fight of any kind but
that when the going gets tough,
some of the fans want to change
managers and coaches. They blame
the score on the other fellow. There
has been no doubt but that the sit
uation is severe enough to cause
grimness on the part of a people,
who have undergone a severe strain
for a long time. Patience is diff
cult to practice without a letting off
of steam during a three-year
stretch and without finding fault
because the home team meets with
reverses. England has had her hands
full, has borne her trials nobly and
her people have served as examples
OF courage under pressure. They
have been singing 'iRule Britannia"
in key for over three years of this
wearisome fray while we are new
corners ito the fight and haven't yet
begun to realize that this is war
to the death. Americans cannot af-
ford to criticise England in he1
quarrel for surely we have enough
to occupy our hands and minds right
here at home. The Pearl Harboa
failure is reason enough for us te
look to our own Lack of co-0pera-

needed all the more. The slogan
that has come out of the surprise at

might be well also to adopt for the
duration another slogan: "Remem-

WASTE NOT

No one needs to tell us that We
are very wasteful country. In Ken.
newick we admit it but are willing tt
help put a stop to it if by so doing
we will assist in putting an end tx
this war. Perhaps it is because
America has always had such ar
abundance of everything that we
have become a nation to forget a
shortage in our needs. BY advertis-
ing products and offering attrac-
tive prices Americans have been sold
ON the idea of purchasing new
rather than using up the old. II
might have been alright then, but
not today. Of course we all know it
is necessary to sacrifice luxuries
during a war and few who haven't
already tasted Of the denial, but
even at this there is no such acute
shortage as has been facing the 9TH
er nations, especially the Axis pow
ers, who for a long time past have
been sacrificing as they built up
their machine for the present con-
fict. They have been even cut
ting down on the necessities in or
der to be ready to strike. We are to-.
day having far more in the way of
food and materials than other coun-
ties have been having for years. But
now we consider what we can get
along without, pulling out of trunks
in the attic certain cast-offs that
might be fixed, bringing out of the
shed and garage discarded items
that might come in handy again.
But daily we must bear in mind that
there are many things which we
fhoughtlessly waste that are vital
in defnse; to squander them will
prolong the war. We can help by
carrying our packages than to have
them delivered since this saves gaso-
line and rubber for trucks. Save old
scrap iron and remember of the
vast amount we shipped to Japan a.
few years ago and what she has
done with 1T! Don't burn paper and
cardboard since you already know of
its Importance. Tell your merchant
to save his paper bags if you can
carry the article without, or not
have a parcel wrapped if unneces-
sary even though it has been custo-
mary.

In1S country mas Deeu cr1ClclSeQ
because of the fact that previous to
the Pearl Harbor attack we permit
ted the shipment of oil and scrap
iron ito Japan Some point this out
as a mistake and insist that we are
entitled to criticism for having done
so. It might be that we are, but let's
consider the facts. Long ago those
at the head of the nation knew we
were heading toward a war with
Japan. This was, from the begin
ming, a part of Hitler's plan. We
could not help it. The only thing we
could do was to put off its coming
as long as we could, until we could,
in a measure, get ready. We accom-
plished this by permitting Japan to
buy certain items in this country
and ship them to Japan. This held
off Japan for a time. Finally Hit
Ter gave the screw another turn and
forced Japan to make impossible
demands upon the United States.
These demands were the subject of
negotiation when Japan struck at
Pearl Harbor True, we could have
refused all shipments to Japan
two years ago but if we had Pearl
Harbor would have come sooner and
Pearl Harbor came too soon as 1t
was. This country never did desire
to release material to Japan. It was
done only as an appeasement and to
delay as long as possible her entry
into the war against us.

We believe the program to save
