New Fiber Tokens To Be Given Out
AS Change Beginning Feb. z

When Arizona housewives and
storekeepers begin using the new
fiber tokens for ration change
Feb. q, you can keep the whole
thing straight by colors.
All red stamps that become valid
for meat will be worth 10 points
each. All blue stamps made good
for processed foods will be worth 10
points each.
The green and brown stamps al
ready valid keep their present face
values until void, that is 8, 5, 2 or
point.
Tokens will be given only as
change on purchases, to give the
housewife the difference for less
than a full stamp, since the tokens
have no expiration date.
The household food buyer is ex~
pected to obtain about the same
amount of rationed foods for stamps
validated after the changeover to
the token system. A few less points
per month are to be validated for
meats, a few more for processed
foods. It is expected that the over
all meat point values will be drop
ped slightly, to accomplish this.
Processed foods point values prob
ably will be upped little.
Stamps will remain good for long
er periods under the token-change
system, and it will make books last
longer. When the token plan
starts. red and blue stamps will be
good for about two months, plus 20
days.
The three red stamps AS, B-8
and CO in Ration Book will be-
come valid Feb. 81 for meat and can
be used any time through May 90
(co) The five blue stamps, AS, B-8,
ca. D-8 and E-8 in Book -Four will
be good Feb. q for processed foods
and also may be used any time
through May TO- Red stamps are to
be validated three at time, each
two weeks; blue stamps five at a
time, once each month, as now
scheduled.
While the green and brown
stamps are in overlapping uIe with
the rEw red and blue stamps, be-
ginning Feb. 27, ration change also

However, Carson announced the
tournament will be double elimi-

a team from the tourney. The

ed they are very much in the

ing the Douglas Bulldogs, 1927
February 5, are also in the bottom

round:
EXTRA DAY ADDED
An extra day was added at the
front end of the tourney to take
care of the extra games necessitated
by the double elimination feature
Reason for making it double elimi-
nation, according to Carson, was
because no teams were seeded,
thereby making it possible for
strong teams to shovel one another
out of the tournament in the first
few days. (Which is exactly what
would have happened)
Winner, runner-up and third team
will go to Phoenix for the state
tournament the following week.
Douglas, probably the Badgers

game to Tucson at Douglas and
