Rubber Drive
Of Two Weeks
Opens Monday

Practically all storage space
in the garages and filling sta
tons in Clintwood have been
filled with old tires and scrap
rubber this week in answer to
the call of the government fol-
this material.
The President has called upon
all Americans to turn in every
bit of rubber you can possibly
spare" in two-weeks' scrap
collection campaign expected to
determine whether nationwide
gasoline rationing is necessary to
conserve tires.
Addressing the people by radio,
the President asked householders
to search attics, cellars and gar
ages for old rubber and to deliv-
er it to gasoline filling stations
which would pay one cent per
pound and would be later REIN
bursed by the government. The
drive began Monday of this week
and will end at midnight, June 80.
"Once the rubber is in, we will
know what our supplies of used
rubber are and we will make our
plans accordingly" the President
said Zone thing you can be sure
Of, we are going to see to it that
there is enough rubber to build
the planes to bomb Tokyo and
Berlin, enough rubber to build
the tanks to crush the enemy
wherever we may find him,
enough rubber to win the war"
Oil trucks will assemble at cen
trial points the rubber collected
by the country's 100000 filling
stations. It will be turned over to
a new government agency which
will reimburse the oil industry
for the money it has paid out.
Rubber items wanted include
tires, inner tubes, crepe rubber
soles, boots and overshoes, hot
water bottles, tennis shoes, rub
Der betting, rubber gloves, rub
Der sheeting, raincoats, rubber
heels, bathing caps, jar rings,
sample tire sections and humid
reds of other articles containing
rubber.
Mr.. Roosevelt appealed to mo-
florists everywhere to cut down ON
pleasure driving and reduce both
automobile speed and mileage. He
disclosed that the army and navy
had been forced to cut their use
of rubber by 25 per cent, largely
by the use Of solid iron tires
which slow downtransport.

Grab Lead at
Start of Tilt

Moving for the third consecutive
year into the Regional finals, the
Warriors OF Ypsilanti High School
scored a 1873 victory over Gran
brook OF Detroit in the Regional
semi-tnals Friday night,
The locals grabbed an early lead,
when Fred Berger dropped a free
throw to put Ypsilanu in front 10.
A charity toss by J. Taylor eyened
the count, but Bill Strang by sink
ing two consecutive field goals,
gave the Braves a 81 margin, and
a lead which they held throughout
most Of the game.
At half-time. the Braves we're in
front on a 1920 count, and in the
third and most OF the fourth quar-
ter tight race was on for the
lead
Bill Strang opened the third
period with swishing pivot shot,
followed by two pointers by Fred
Berger and Eugene Palmer. putting
the Warriors on the long end OF a
$3.50 count. which the Cranbrook
1927 by the time the third quar-
ter ended.
The fourth session found Gran
brook threatening several times,
but never catching Ypsilanti's
sharpshooters. At one time. Gran
brook was shy but three points Of
Ypsilanti, when they trailed 1888.
In the last minute and a half, the
Braves .clinched the game by scor-
ing six points, on field goals by
Berger, Hughes and Strang.
Bill Strang. senior forward, led
the field with II points, six of
which were tailed in the first quar-
ter. Taylor spanked the Cranbrook
basketeers with 10 points followed
by Buckner with nine.
For the past two years, Ypsilanti
has entered the Regional finals,
only TO meet with an opponent
stronger than themselves. In the
1910 tournament the locals bowed
before Blissfield then playing in
Glass B. Last year, they led Davi-
son nearly all the way, only TO see
six point lead overcome them
in the fnal 80 seconds OF play.
Tonight they meet Flint Tech at
s:45 for the Glass B finals. The
teams rate about evenly as far As
past performance is concerned, ex-
Guiding Thursdays Belleville.Flint
Tech session, which the Flint five
won, 50-25. Belleville, apparently
playing on an on night" found a
great deal Of difficulty in hitting
the net, and were consequently
easy overrun by Flint.
One popularity Of the Flint Tech
squad is their onehand shots,
which they use from almost any
spot on the court They prac
tically never use a two hand lone
shot, but draw back and let the
ball fly with an almost baseball
throw, which seldom misses.
Bob Mead, center, who tailed Is
points against Belleville, is prob
ably the greatest threat the Flint
team boasts. He scores most OF his
points on tip-ins OF missed free
throws and long shots.
MartZ Andrews, who tailed II
points against Belleville, may alst
be rated as top-flight eager, spe
cializing in push shots from thu
free throw line. In short, tbs
Warriors will find the Flint quin
tet no pushover, but may come
out on top.

This is a description OF an

Choose Large Bulbs
Bulbs to be forced should be
