PRINCETON, N. j., July o.
Princeton will play its 1912 football
games with Navy and Army in
Yankee Stadium, New York. Asa
Bushnell, acting director Of athletics,
has announced.
Both games originally were sched-
uled for Palmer Stadium.
THE gas and tire shortages and
the limitations of railroad travel to
essential purpose. together with the
increasing length of the working
week, will make 1t impossible for
any Princeton alumni who ordinarily
come here for football games to fol-
low their usual custom next fall,
Bushnell said.
"By transferring the Navy and
Army games to New York City we
are making it possible for alumni in
that area at least to see the Prince
ton team play"
The Navy game will be played on
October II, and the Army contest
is slated November 81.

Godgets
Compound to SeqJ
Cracks in Roof
Is Applied Easily
BY HILSON MUNSEY.

Leaks that developed in the roof
and other places during the winter
should be sealed up now. Roofs of
felt, tar and gravel, corrugated iron,
tin or concrete all would be the
better for a protective coating that
will fill up the cracks and crevices
and save the rooms below, to say
nothing of the woodwork in the
house.
This material is applied directly
over the old covering and will save
the cost of replacements. 1t is a
heavy adhesive compound made of
waterproof oils, asphalt, asbestos
and other necessary ingredients.
While it is much heavier than paint,
1t can be spread easily with an
ordinary roof brush. 1t will spread
uniformly and will put an elastic
one-piece coating over the entire
roof that will keep out water and
offer protection for a long time to
come. 1t can be used with equal
effectiveness on a fiat roof or on one
that is sloped.
Applied in Any Weather.
The sealing coat can be applied
In any weather, even if it is raining,
and it doesn't matter if 1t is hot
cold, wet or dry. 1t is shipped
ready to apply, without thinning or
heating, in four different colors-
black, maroon, red or green. 1t
also is useful around chimney fash
mgs, cornices and skylights.
Before applying, the surface to
be treated must be swept thoroughly
or, better still, brushed. This
Is done to remove all paint, scales,
dirt, tar and loose gravel. Then the
roof should be examined for breaks
In the seams or flashingS and any
open seam or cracks in the surface.
These should be repaired first
with special plastic made by the
same manufacturer. If the hole
or break is more than a l2-inch
wide, it first should be filled with
a piece of burlap before. applying
the plastic. All loose f1ashings
should be nailed then coated with
the plastic. If the roof is old and
porous, or if it shows signs of
taking, it first must receive a coat
of primer, then the sealing material
should be brushed on literally.
Where a felt or composite roof
has buckled, these buckles should
be split open and the edges nailed
down before the plastic coat is
applied. These roofs, when old. re-
uuire a printing coat of a gallon
for each 100 square feet; then the
sealing coat, using approximately
two gallons to 100 square feet.
Window Frame Sealer.
Now also is a good time to seal
up the window frames and make
them watertight There is prep
aration that will do this work very
well, indeed, and which will not
dry out under the effects of
hot sun, and it is not affected by
the cold Of a winter, at least to
q go below zero cold.
1t remains plastic, though the
surface hardens enough to permit
painting. 1t also is useful for
window glazing. 1t won't dry out,
and it takes up any vibration that
might cause a broken window.

handcrafts for wall decorations and

ANB EXECUTIVE BOARD TO HOLD
 MEETING HERE

Roy Peratrovich, Grand President of the Alaska Native Brotherhood has issued a call for all members of the Executive Board to convene in Juneau, January Is, 1943, for an important conference.
 The Board meeting will replace the annual convention which is held on the second Monday of No- vember of each year. Peratrovich and members of the Board thought it inadvisable to hold the annual convention this year because many of the members are employed on vital defense projects, and should not absent themselves during these critical times. Many others are with the armed forces.
 Plans will be outlined for a systematic and sustained member ship campaign, and to give great CT support to the war effort, so that every available and able man and woman of native blood will be engaged in some capacity in con- tributing towards the prosecution of the war One of the first heroes of the present war was General Clarence L. Tinker, an Osage h. dian, who met death in the Ha- waiian Islands while leading Am erican bombers to combat Japa- nese fliers.
 Any proposed legislation which may tend to be discriminatory will be closely studied, and it's intro duction discouraged, said Peratro- vich.
 Any legislation presented at the forthcoming sixteenth biennial session of the Alaska Legislature should be carefully considered, and any bill even remotely discrimina- tory should not be introduced. It
