 OPA pricers point out that fruit for smaller sizes to be sold below ceiling without running the whole salers carload profit. Wholesalers say 1t can't be done with present pricing methods. Outcome will probably be that you'll be buying fruit as usual, with a compromise arrangement to avoid predicted catastrophes.
 ODDS AND ENDS

The two-session mixed pair event at the Ohio State Tourna- ment was won by Mrs. c. J. Bon ney of South Euclid, O., and Sam Rockwell of Cleveland. Mrs. Bon ner is one of the hard-working of ficers of the Cleveland Whist Club, the organization sponsoring the tournament, and her victory was very popular.
 Sa m7ockwell is one of the old time stars of Cleveland. I thought he played today's hand very well. When he counted his tricks, there were only II in sight, but he found @ way to make the extra one he needed.
 Rockwell ruffed the ace of hearts and led @ low spade to dum- my's king. Another heart was ruffed with the ace of trumpS, and dummy entered with the king of diamonds. The fourth heart was led and ruffed with the king of trumps, and a low trump was led to dummy. Three rounds of clubs were taken, Rock well discarding his losing diamond on the last round. The ace of dia- monds and the high spades ac- counted for the remaining tricks.

given out there, most of the service
men have heard about it. From May
18, 1943, when the service was first
started, through December 80, of the
same year, 247 SAT tickets were given
out to servicemen. This included
theater tickets, movie tickets, tick

lie University, to State Society and
Press Club dances, and, weather
permitting, for boat rides. Also a
variety of special events far too nu-
merous to mention here.
Tickets are mailed out regularly
to Walter Reed and to the Naval
Hospital and to those adjacent
camps where they have been re-
quested. Individual tickets are
given to the men who come to the
Booth and request them, every day

is a captain of volunteers each day,
and the service, we can tell you is

The service was originally started

cool in summer-it was not so pleas

volunteers shivered and shuddered
