KICKED FOUR YEARS WITHOUT A BLOCK

TWIN FALLS, Idaho-(AP)- County Prosecutor Everett M. Sweeley was the star punter of Fielding H. Yosts high scoring Michigan elevens of 1901-02. He says that in his four seasons of booting the pigskin for the Vol verines, he never had kick blocked.
 Sweeley never had seen a col lege football game until the one in which he compted as a Mich igan freshman. In four seasons he missed only one game, the re- suit of "a little row with a math professor"

ADDITIONAL RELIEF IS GRANTED

ators of small placer-gold mines additional relief from the original provisions of the order closing all gold mines has been given to B. D. Stewart, commissioner of mines for Alaska, in a revised , grant of authority issued by the War Production Board under date of October II, 1943.
 During the past year the Ter ritorial commissioner of mines has served as co-ordinator of mines in Alaska for the War Produc- tion Board and, under a grant made in April 1943, has issued permits to many small operators to mine gold on their placer prop critics during the season that has just closed. These pemits re- stricted the number of men en- ployed on each operation to five, including the owner and asso- ciates, and were valid only for the calendar year l943.
 Under the new grant permits may now be issued for seven, in- stead of five men, to be employ ed on each operation, and the grants will be made for an inde- finite period instead of being re- stricted for one calendar year.
 The povisions of the new grant are as follows:
 Permission is granted to any placer mine in the Territory of Alaska which operated in 1922, to operate during subsequent seasons, providing the following conditions are met:
 3. That not more than one of men, including owner and asso- ciates, are actively engaged in the operation.
 2. Tha not more than one of those men, who must be either the owner or supervisor, was re- siding outside of the Territory of Alaska at the date of the issuance of this grant.
 3. No man shall be employed unless because, of age, physical handicap or other reasons, they cannot be used in essential war activities. =.
 4. That no critical material, other than those in the possession of the operator, or available sec-- ond-hand, will be required.
 5. That the operator files with the Coordinator of Mines for Alaska or his delegated represen- tative the following information: (a) Name and location of prop erty. (b) Name and address of owner or operating company. (c) Type of operation. (d) Num- Der of men who would be active ly engaged in the operation.
 6. Permission to operate shall be extended in writing by the Co., ordinator of Mines, to any opera tor for the 1943 season, provided said operator complies with the restrictions and provisions of this grant. ~,~
 The provisions of Order L-208 are waived to the extent required to obtain the relief authorized above, provided the Order L-208 in all other respects and all other orders and regulations of the War Production Board are fully complied with"
 Applications for permits to op- crate under this grant may be addressed to B. D. Stewart, Co., ordinator of Mines, box 2811, Ju- neau, Alaska, or may be filed with any representative of the Territorial Department of Mines at the field and assay offices of that department which are To- cated at Anchorage, College, Ketchikan and Nome.

TRISODIUM PHOSPHATE

Question: Please repeat the name
of the chemical used with water for
cleaning painted and enameled sur
faces.
Answer: Trisodium phosphate has
many uses in a household. It has
the effect of destroying grease, and
thus makes a good cleaner. A hand
full in dishpan makes dishwashing
easier, and one or two tablespoons
in a pail of water is excellent for
cleaning painted surfaces. In strong
er solutions it eats into the paint,
even to the extent of being a first
rate paint remover. For this, it is
used in the proportion of three
pounds to the gallon of water. When
applied boiling hot, with a dish mop
or brush, paint and varnish soften
quickly and can be taken off by
rubbing with cloth or, by using a
scraper. On some kinds of wood
the grain may be raised slightly, so
sandpapering will be needed before
refnishing. It is harmless to the
skin.
Trisodium phosphate is not stocked
by drugstores. 1t can be had from
chemical houses, and many paint
stores sell it under its chemical
name, as we'll as under the name of
beet salt. It also is sold under many
trade names.

Robot Keeps Tank Guns Level on Rough Terrain;
Gives Our Crews Big Advantage Over Axis Tanks

Tests in actual combat and on
proving grounds have demonstrated
the ability of a newly developed
robot aiming device to increase by
several hundred per cent the shoot
ing accuracy of new army tanks
while in motion. The robot is known
as gyro-stabilizer.
t'The stabilizer enables gunners in
American tanks to fire accurately
even while racing at full speed over
the shattered terrain of battle
field" Gen. L. H. Campbell Jr.,
chief of ordnance, army service
forces, explains, adding:
''Not only do the high-velocity rs
nm. guns in our Ms medium tanks
(called General Grants by the Brit
ish) far and away out-range the best
the Germans have, but we can fire
this high velocity 75-mm. gun when
the M-3 tank is in motion.
despite the pitch of the tank, the
stabilizer keeps the gun barrel at
fixed elevation and the target within
Dickenson County herald. [volume] (Clintwood, Va.) 1939-195?, 1943-09-09

focus of the tank gunner's telescope
sight.
'The advantage in striking force
gained by Americas tanks is clear.
The Germans have won their vic
tories by a skillful combination of
fire and movement. Progressing in
zigzag advance, they cover each
others advance by alternating at
firing from standing position.
''This in effect immobilizes one
half the tanks participating in an
offensive while the other half is adj
vancing. American tanks equipped
with the stabilizer are able to ad-
vance simultaneously and fire with
greatly improved accuracy.
'The new control gives American
tanks still another great advantage.
A tank that must come to dead
stop to fire accurately itself becomes
an excellent target for enemy air.
planes and artillery. Since Ameri-
can tanks can be always in motion,
they make difficult targets"

cottas are the colors that give mel
low charm to this background for

Another interesting example of a
doubled-up room for war living is a

serve pleasantly for all sorts Of
between-meals uses.
A charming-and useful-bedroom
for war time living was planned
around the heartening focus of a

walls, with printed cotton to match
for the two studio couch beds, and
for one or two chairs.

SUNKEN SIDEWALK

question. FdTC OF the concrete
sidewalk in my backyard has sunk
en-, SO that in rains and when snow
melts, long pools are formed. How
can it be raised to its proper level?
Answer: If sidewalk was made
in squares, these can be raised with
a croWbar, SO that a stone or cinder
filling can be placed underneath. If
the sidewalk is one continuous strip,
the sunken part should be broken
into small pieces, to be packed and
used as foundation for new layer
of concrete. If you are not familiar
with the work, it might be a diff
ficult job, but one that concrete
contractor would find very simple.
Asbestos Shingles
Question: How are asbestos shin
giles cut? Can they be cut with a
Ratchet, like wooden shingles? Will
a carpenters saw do? I have heard
that a mail-order house has a tool
for the purpose; would this be bet
ter?
Answer: A rigid single, made of
asbestos fiber and cement, cannot be
cut with a Ratchet. If cut with a
carpenters saw, sharpening and re-
setting would be necessary to put
the saw back in shape. A special
cutting tool for this type of single
is necessary; the one you say is
handled by the mail-order house.
Slow Hot-Water Heat
Question: Would a circulator
pump in my hot-water heating sys-
tenn help in heating my second floor
more quickly? My first floor heats
up quickly, but it takes two to three
hours to raise the temperature of
the rooms upstairs to the same de-
gree.
Answer: A circulator pump usual
ly improves the circulation of the
entire heating system, provided the
piping and pump are installed prop
erly. You should have a reliable
heating contractor do the work.
Paint for Old Fiber Wallboard
Question: How many coats and
what kind of paint will be needed
to paint a fiber wallboard installed
rs years ago?
Answer: First apply a coat of
sizing; glue or thin shellac. If a
good quality casein paint is to be
used, one coat may be sufficient,
but for oil paint, use fiat wall paint
in two coats.
