Saturday Is Last
Day Blue Tokens To
Be Used AS Change

Saturday (September 16) is the
last day on which blue ration to-
kens may be used in odd numbers
or as change, the district Office of
Price Administration reminded
housewives today.
From Sunday, September II,
through September 80, blue tokens
will be accepted by grocers only in
groups of 10, OPA said. The use
of blue tokens will be discontinued
entirely October 1, and after that
date only stamps are to be used.
The withdrawal of blue tokens
is the result of the removal from
rationing of most processed foods,
except canned fruits, on September
II. Effective that date, all blue
point foods remaining on the ra-
ton list will be assigned point
values in multiples of 10, the dis
trict OPA said. The point changes
for these foods have not yet been
received by the district office.

Nisei Sergeant
Killed In Action
On Italian Front

S/Sgt. Kazuo Masuda, "a, was
killed on the Italian battle front
August 27. This word was re-
ceived from the War Department
by his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Cen
suke Masuda, who live in the Riv-
ers War Relocation Authority
camp. Memorial services will be
held Friday morning, September
Is. That evening, a younger
brother, Mas, will leave to report
for active army duty. Another
brother, Takashi, is with the famed
442nd Battalion in Italy. Still an
other brother, Mitsuo, has been
inducted and has come from Chi
cago to visit his parents while he
awaits his call for active duty.
Before evacuation the family was
engaged in truck farming near
Santa Ana, California.
Kazuo was a graduate of Hunt
ington Beach High School where
he was active in all types of ath-
letics. He and his brother Taxa
shi left Santa Ana on October II.
1941, for army duty and trained
together at Camp Savage before
going overseas. A few weeks ago,
the army paper, STARS and
Stripes" paid tribute to the BRAY
cry and ingenuity of S/Sgt. Kazuo
Masuda in an article entitled zone
Man Nisei Mortar Team Confuses
Nazis." The article read as fol-
lows:
"A one-man mortar team made
the positions of several Nazis in
northern Italy confusin' but def
nitely not amusin'.
1T was worked by Staff Sgt.
Kazuo Masuda, Santa Ana, Calf.
The Nazis were entrenched on a
hill. Sgt. Masuda dashed I'D the
slope, filled an extra helmet with
dirt and buried the mortar barrel
in 1t. He squatted beside this EN-
placement and wrapped his stubby
legs around the tube. He had no
sight or tripod, so he calculated the
range in his head.
THE Nazis poured shell after
shell at him, but the one-man NOR
tar team kept at it until they with
drew in confusion"

On Coolidge

Early indications give prom
ise of larger crop than last
year, despite bugs and
early shedding, gin mana
gers agree.

This week sees the beginning Of
trek of loaded cotton wagons to
Coolidge gins as ginning of the dis
trict's cotton crop gets underway.
A general survey of local cotton
conditions bear out the opinion Of
most gin managers that this years
cotton crop, while not up to par,
will be better than last years crop.
There has been considerable
trouble with bugs in some sections
and because of evtreme hot wealth
er shedding has been general
throughout the district.
Boswell Gin was the first district
gin to get started on September 2.
c. e. Odom brought in the first
load of cotton, definitely of better
quality than last year, according
to Earl Nabors, manager. Since
then cotton has been brought in
| by Vensel Brothers, Jack Roberts,
Joe Farr and E. NJ Gammage. At
present Boswell gin is turning out
about 35 bales day.

staple, followed in close success
sion by Hans Christensen, w. F.
Dunn and Fleeta Storie. This
years cotton is definitely better
than last years crop to date, ac-
cording to M. M. Ware, manager.
If weather conditions are good
there is every reason to expect a
reasonably gratifying cotton year.
he said.
Westerns Coolidge gin will be-
gin ginning operations Monday, ac-
cording to Earl Mauldin, manager.
Repairs and improvements are still
/, underway on the gin, which burned
last year. Cotton is now in their

San Carlos Water
Project Compares
Well In Report
Area served has had average
water level lowered only
slightly In past two years.

The continued shortage of pre-
cipitation over Central and South
ern Arizona, now in it's second
year, is reflected in the annual geo.
logical survey report on ground
water conditions and pumpage, is
sued from its Tucson office re-
Gently.
In Pinal county pumping from
underground supplies has risen
from $4,000 acre-feet of water in
1910 to $4,000 acre-feet in 1943.
The area in Pinal county served
by San Carlos Irrigation and Drain
age District is the most favorable
among the areas in the states de-
pending upon pumping water for
irrigation needs in spite of con-
tinued shortage of rainfall over
central and southern Arizona, ac-
cording to figures released by the
geological survey in Tucson this
week.
This annual report shows the av-
erage water level in and near the
San Carlos project has lowered
only slightly in the past two years
while all other areas served by
pumping water show a real, and in
some cases, a grave increase in
the pumping OF underwater sup
plies.
When this report was called to
the attention of Carl Anderson, dis
trict engineer of San Carlos dis
trict, he remarked that approx
mately $1,000 acre-feet of water
had been pumped up to September
1st and he estimated that about
1000 acre-feet would be pumped
by the end of the year which is
only slightly more than the water
pumped last year. c. J. Moody is
the project engineer.
According to the geological re-
port the average Pinal county
pumping from underground sup
plies has risen from $4,000 acre
feet of water in 1910 to $4,000
acre-feet in 1943. In the Queen
Creek area of Maricopa county, in
clCding all wells between the Salt
ard Gila rivers and east of the
Salt River valley project, pumping
in the same period has increased
from 1850 acre-feet to 173.20O
acre-feet of water.
In the Duncan-Virden valley area
in Greenlee county pumping like
wise has increased from 2,436 acre
feet in 1910 to 1000 acre-feet last
year. In the Stafford valley pump
ing rose from 24,6OO acre-feet tc
$4,000 acre-feet.
While the average water level Ia
and near the San Carlos project in
Pinal county has lowered only
slightly in the last two years, the
water table in the Eloy area has
dropped IL feet and in the Mari
copa area 10 feet, the report states.
The total drop in the Eloy area
from 1910 to December, 1943, has
been 1Sk feet.
The Queen Greek area dropped
212 feet in 1912 and three fet il
| 1943.
Most of the areas that depend
solely upon pumping ground water
for their irrigation supplies are
rapidly depicting their supply by
over-pumping," the report states.

Coach Outlines
Bears Prospects
For The Future
General outline of strength
of Coolidge Bears is given
by Coach Glenn Wilson.
Boys working hard, he
says.

The Coolidge Bears are working
hard this week in preparation for
the opening game with Buckeye,
week away, according to Glenn
Wilson, coach. The backs have
been shaping up satisfactorily in
workouts, but coaches Wilson and
Art Lanier are still looking for
aggressive linemen to fill gaps left
by graduation.
Jack Havens, Jack Prefer and
Albert Singh have been looking
good at the guard spots and two
of these will probably win starting
positions. Tom Adams is develop
ing fast, however, and Nelson
Gammage shows promise.
The tackles are husky, but green.
OF the seven prospects only Leon
ard Burtcher has had game expe-
rience. Oscar Montgomery may
make a starter, Wilson said, but
Stanley Ellis, Jack Blackwater, J..
B. Carter, Bob Ferguson and Kent
McEuen have shown signs of ag-
gressiveness the Bears must have
for their type of play. Tackle po-
sitions will probably be won by
showings in next weeks prac-
tice.
Tony Ciskowski has been hold
ing down right end and Pewee
Harmon has been working at left.
Harmon lacks size, however, and
several other players have been
given a shot at this position. 1t
seems to be the hard luck position
as both Clint Skrla and Wayne Ell
ledge. star backs last year, have
been injured while working there.
Skrla has bruised hip and Ell
ledge a twisted ankle. Both of
these boys are expected to be back
in shape next week and will be In
the starting lineup. Other end
prospects are Eugene Anderson,
Jim Vidano and Bill Ware.
Jimmy Davis and Mack McEuen,
the touchdown twins of 1943, are
showing flashes of their last years
power. If they get blocking to put
them in the open, either will be
hard to catch. The up and COM
ing sophomore flash, Eddie Schell,
will be ready to step in when
needed. Schell has shown promise
as passer and some of his south
paw heaves may be useful this
year.
The ever reliable Ken Trout is
working at both quarterback and
half and will probably be the work
horse of the backfield. He is rap
idly developing into one of the best
blockers and tacklers on the squad.
Mack McEuen also looks good de-
fensively. Freddy Sprinkles is de-
veloping into capable backfield
man. Three boys are after the
center post with Red Veazey hav-
ing the edge at present. Red was
dependable fullback last year.
Pressing him for starting honors
are Billy Irvine and Charley Pat
terson. Both of these boys will see
plenty of action.
In scrimmage last Tuesday
night the team only showed flashes
of the attack that carried last
years eleven to eight straight vic
tories. The boys are working
hard, however, and their mental
condition is good, which is a ia
vorable sign, according to the
coaches.
Other squad members are Marlin
Wing and Roland Freeland, neither
eligible until the second semester
are working out with the squad to
get experience. Both are backs.

Speed Warning
In School Zones

The speed limit of Is miles per
hour will be strictly enforced
this year in all school zones, ac-
cording to Highway Patrolman Dan
Kinser. Every school zone in the
state adjacent to state routes will
be signed and well posted; Ari-
zona motorists must accept these
signs as their warning. Citations
to see the Judge will be cheerfully
given by the partol to any driver
who does not believe in signs.
Drastic action will be taken to pro-
tect the lives and limbs of our
most precious possession our
children.
Traffic in school zones and at
school crossings will be regulated
by the school safety patrol.

Applications For "A
Gas Coming In Slow

Application for "a" gasoline ra-
ton coupons are coming into Cool
idge rationing board office very
slowly, according to Mrs. M. M.
Ware, chief clerk. Unless appli-
cations are received more prompt
ly it will not be possible to have
the coupons ready by September
22nd, Mrs. Ware said, since last
minute pile-up of work at the ra-
tion board office will necessarily
delay matters.

WITH SPLENDID

cooperation on the part of property
owners a great many dangerous
corners are being cleared of rank
weed and tree growth until it is
once again safe to approach most
of them without bringing an auto
mobile to a dead stop. There are
still some to be cleared that are
extremely dangerous which should
be cleaned up before a serious ac-
cident occurs.
COOLIDGE is ABOUT
to have a homeless ration board
because its present quarters has
been leased. Our wealthy govern
ment has provided no funds for
rental of building to house the
local ration boards which have
been forced to rely upon the largess
OF local owners of vacant property.
MILITARY EXPERTS
now say the war with Germany
can be brought to an end within
the next three weeks or it
could go on until late December or
January. Whichever is true there
is no doubt the German paper
hanger pulled a blunder when he
ordered his armies in France to
repel the Allies at all points :.
he would have been far better off
had he withdrawn his major forces
for stand along his own borders
or on the fields of Northern
France where the bitter final
battles of 1918 were fought.
