We often wonder if some of
the boys and gals who never
seem to have a dime when the
service collection comes around,
have a guilty conscience. After
all the boys are giving their
arms, their legs and their lives;
while we are only asking for a
dime. Remember if they hadn't t
left their jobs, you wouldn't be
working.
Who is the tall, slim fellow
on days, 3rd floor, who doesn't
like to see things running
smoothly. He threatens to lay
off the entire End shift if they
don't stop singing Christmas
carols. Maybe this man would
rather they would argue and
pull hair instead. Just the same

always sing.
Who is the welder on the

job Cut Planned
By Bomber Plant

BALTIMORE, Dec. 18 (LPA)
Less than half of the $4,000
workers at the huge Glenn l..
Martin plant here will have
jobs with the company after the
war ends, company officials
now admit.
About 5000 workers may be
retained to continue production
of fighting craft and CONNER
cial planes. Union officials
state flatly that the $4,000 fig
ure is way high" unless the
company develops more COM
prehensive plans for reconver-
sion to peacetime production.
Total employment in the auto
and aircraft industry is cur
rently 100000, they pointed
out, and unions and aircraft
firms agree that probably no
more than 100000 workers will
be needed after the war.

p. m. Plan to come and bring
your friends. Plenty of round
and square dancing and refresh
ments. Come and see the old
year out and the new year in.
WE WONDER
What is it that makes some
former think they can get more
work out of their men by MAX
ing them angry. So, Cliff, we
suggest that you be careful and
remember that bigger men than
you have been showed back.

committee for the coming cleo
ton have been elected. They are

AROUND THE SHOP
Under the sterling leadership
of captain D. Pugh, dept. 36
continues to hold first place in
the shop bowling league.
Otto Katasehke bowled the
first 200 game of his career. A
big deal.
Those rollicking rollers from
Scotland are rolling right along.
If John Mcknight would be
polite and remove his hat, his
Tool Crib team might do better.
Louis Clark seems to be slip
ping, he should bring the little
lady along again.
"CaSsinova" Steve Kozak,
dept. 36, is about ready to join
the Seabees, because he can't
keep up with the pace set in the
night spots.
Noah Scherack formerly en-
ployed in dept. 80 is back after
30 months in overseas duty. He
went through the shop recently
while home on furlough.
Bob Finch, former electrician
at National Supply is now in
England.
AS a gesture of goodwill to
Wolf, the boys in dept. 80 and
80 are going to paint the mirror
on the canteen machine black
so the lad won't be forced to
comb his hair so often. What ne
doesn't see won't hurt his pride.
The new oiler in dept. IS
was seen practicing up recently.
He was oiling the buckles on
his overshoes so he can make
better time going and coming
to work. What's your hurry
Ted?
Henie Hafner, dept. 80, is
back in crib 3. He says he
couldn't stand it any longer out

Delbert dewey Bordner.
dept. 81 says that since FDR

DOUBLE TROUBLE
BY Ted MOdrOwSki

Casimer "Skeex" Roginski is
having his share of misery late
ly. He is in the doghouse with
the boys in the Machine Shop
for running two jobs at one time
and he's having trouble with
the foreman because he won't
run three.
Just as soon as Shearmires
Sunshine Boys learn a few
tricks about the game of basket
ball they will be challenged by
the Cameo Unit Stalwarts. IN
the lineup for the Stalwarts
you will find dependables such
as Tommy Ricinski, Ernie
Schultz, Ed McMillen, Bill
Wiesehan and Frank Rippinger
The Sunshine Boys are entered
in the "Y' League under the
guise of American Can Com
pany. (This team should have
jackets to 60 along with those
Snappy unlformS).
The guy who said, Santa
Claus is the only one who can
run around with a bag all night
and not get talked about, .
never spoke more truthful
words.
Junior Mitchell said "She
laughed when l sat down 10
play-but when l came over 10

upon the broken glass. (Says

Bears Defeat
Buckeye Squad
Friday 48 to 7
Local eleven plays Ampithe-
ater high school in Tue
son this afternoon.

The Coolidge Bears got off to a
running start Friday night by de-
feating an out-manned Buckeye
team 4S to Z. With reserves play
ing half of the time and scoring
three of the seven touchdowns the
Bears had the game under control
at all times.
Mack McEuen started the scor-
ing early in the game by sprinting
6S yards to a touchdown. Jimmie
Davis scored the second touchdown
on a 25-yard jaunt through the
middle of the Buckeye team and
added another before the end of
the first quarter. All three tries
for-point were good making the
score 21-0 at this point.
With reserves playing the second
quarter Buckeye assumed the Of
tensive and scored its Z points,
but the Bear team came right back
to score again on a wide sweep
to make the half-time score % to Z.
In the third quarter Coolidge was
again on the move with McEuen
scoring his third touchdown of the
game. Reserves played the last
quarter and pushed over two
more touchdowns on the tir-
ing Hawks. Red Veazey plunged
over once and Eddie Schell con-
tributed the other on a nice cut
back run.
Coaches Wilson and Lanier were
especially pleased with the per-
formance of the line. The block
ing and tackling were good for the
first game of the season. Stanley
Ellis, Jack Blackwater and Leonard
Burtcher all tackles held down
their positions in good fashion. AL
Singh and Jack Havens, guards
looked very good defensively and
in interference running. Charlie
Patterson. playing his first game,
turned in a fine performance at
center. Billy Irvine also looked
good at this position.
Wayne Elledge, although handi-
capped by injuries did some good
ball handling and passing with
Clint Skrla and Tony Ciskowski
doing the receiving. Wayne COM
pleted four out of five thrown to
those boys. Kenneth Trout called
signals and did the heavy duty
blocking which was very effective
in getting McEuen, Davis and
Schell into the open.
Today the Bears journey to Tue
son to play Ampitheater at p. m.
The next home game is with Su-
perior on October 13.
