JOB CLEARANCE
 CENTERS URGED
 BY WING OFFICE

Community committees. using To- cal offices of the United States Elm ployment Service as clearing houses for both information and job place. ment aid, were advocated here to- day by E. E. Lincoln, Asst. Director, War Manpower Commission, as a first objective in an adequate veter- ans program.
 MT Lincoln pointed to highly sue cessful demonstration centers, con ducted by the national office of WING in January of 1944, which he purposes:
 l. Exploration, on a local level, of services that should be made available to veterans upon their re- turn to civilian life.
 ?. Use of USES offices as a cen tral point to which veterans could come for information and help in finding suitable jobs.
 3. Coordination of community effort in order to avoid duplication and conflict and save the returning servicemen from unnecessary trips to a variety of agencies
 The demonstration centers in which experimental veterans service programs were installed were in Denver, Houston, Los Angeles, Min neapolis, New Haven, Philadelphia, and St. Louis.
 Among some of the local groups who participated in these centers, depending upon the community in which they were set up, were the Veterans Administration, Ameri- can Red Cross, Chamber of Com merce, Selective Service local boards, Nurses Association, Public Library, schools. and Training agencies, as well as labor unions, civic officials, physicians, womens clubs and other organizations.
 "As men and women were dis charged from the armed services and as war employment Is cut back, many persons will experience serious difficulty in readjGsting from war to peace activities" MT. Lincoln said. ITO give appropriate assistance to the individual in making this read justment, 1t is necessary that infor- nation be easily accessible in every community as to services and bene- fits available"

''HAND5 ACROSS THE BORDER" ON
 CAPITOL'S BILL

Republic again rings the bell in the latest of the dynamic Roy Rog- CTS westerns. The current subject is Hands Across the Border" op- ening at the Capitol tonight for a two day run.
 In the new film he portrays a 1 light hearted, foot-loose singing cowboy, who rides into the midst of an intriguing situation. Since the first covered wagon days, the Adams family have bred fine horses on their ranch near Buckaroo. Their horses have always been famous, and until recent years regularly won the government cavalry horse con- tract award.
 The present holder of the family, breezy Jeff Adams (played by Joseph Crehan) is proud of his horses and leis ranch but he would rather gam ble than attend to business, so for several years now he has let the government contract for horses slide into the hands of suave Buckaroo business man, Brock Danvers On slow Stevens). Danvers has his eye on the Adams ranch and means to get control of it. He also has a pcssessive eye on Jeff's pretty, stage struck daughter Kim, played by Ruth Terry.
 When Rogers sees how the land lies, he protects the Adams interests routs the villain and wins the heart of lovely Kim Adams.
 The Sons of the Pioneers, with their tuneful melodies. contribute much to the general excellence of the film.
 The second feature is "The Girl Who Dared" thrilling new mys- tery drama.

Hi there! The Student
Council sponsored a Sadie Hawkins
dance last week, and It was a won
derful success. The frolickers came
dressed in bright shirts and jeans.
and Ted Knoll even brought a pipe.
However, the fact it was empty
made a difference.
Corn stalks were seen everywhere.
and cider and doughnuts were the
refreshments. We can truthfully
say, that the cider affected no one
in any particular manner.
Every boy in the place was on
the floor at some time or other,
and I think this incident should
loosen up some OF the reserve that
certain fellas seem to possess. ANY
way, We wish to say thanks. for a
wonderful time!
Although we have not as yet the
final results in the Drive for BaS-
ketball Patrons" I see by the chart
that Irene Dzuibak is in the lead.
At the last report, she has col
lected s163 from her patrons. It's
swell to bring in a total like that.
especially when We realize what a
task it was. Congratulations, Irenei
After waiting so long, and having
received so many false reports and
misleads, think today the infor-
nation is authentic. The J-Hop is
to be held on Saturday, December
l. You can purchase your tickets
from any junior, and We sincerely
hope to see you all there!

contest in regard to Book Week.
and it was a rough contest to the
final round. The contestants num-
bered Is, representing all the re-

Runners up were. Virginia Witczak

it!

Deputy Rides Goat

ROCHESTER, N. Y. U.9 - Two
sheriff deputies are much wiser to-
day on the subject of goats. A six
party rodeo was staged impromptu
on the farm of William Stark,
when the two deputies attempted
to corral four strong-minded gray
goats who had made their way into
the field among a flock of sheep
After the deputies had made several
ineffective passes at the intruderS,
the goats turned the tables and
butted the deputies. In a final
desperate effort, one of the deputies
grasped the billygoat by the horns.
and together they roamed over the
field. The "rodeo" ended when the
goat was wrestled into the bar,
whereupon the three companion
animals followed. The deputies and
Stark hope that the owner will call
for the visitors soon.

The estimated cut In munitions

sons will be reduced about So per
cent.
or the 5000.0 900 due to be re-
leased, expectations are perhaps
half will retire from the labor mar
ket. The others will become job
seekers along with about 400, 600
currently employed to bring the to-
tai to approximately 1000, 900.
100000 to Stay on.
About 100000 of those now in
war production are expected to stay
on with present employers, but they
will shift from munitions to civilian
production.
Government officials could make
no estimate of how long it may take
for 10000 persons to find work
in civilian production. They are
hopeful, however, consumer goods
manufacture can hit its stride and
reduce joblessness sharply by the
end Of the year.

Food Purchases to Continue.
Food purchasing is expected to
remain at about the same heavy
volume for time at least.
1t was pointed out that much of
the estimated heavy reductions in
Army buying constituted only paper
cuts, since it had been assumed be-
forehand that there would be great
lessening before the year was out.
In announcing the Navy cutback
MIR. Snyder took over for the White
House the issuance of official news
on reconversion. Other Government
agencies were told to keep their war
to-peace plans private until Presi-
dent Truman gives the signal.
The purpose of this toboo, it was
explained, is to allow coordination
OF plans OF various agencies and to
prevent disclosure before peace is
an accomplished fact. The edict
caused cancellation of at least one

plans. The meeting of Chairman

Hoover Warns u. :.
Tide Of Communism
Is Sweeping Europe
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONG BEACH, Calf, Aug. IL
Stating that communism or
creeping socialism are sweeping
over Europe beginning in
Asia" former President Herbert
Hoover said today that the time
has arrived for the United States
to decide which way it will 60
to the right, to the left, or down
the middle road.
You and must not be marked as
the generation who surrendered the
heritage OF America" the former
President told an estimated crowd
lof $4,000 on his list birthday.
The address waS made at the an
nual picnic of the Iowa Association
of Southern California.
Sees Enormous Problems.
The Iowa native took note that
today Is "an occasion for the great
est thanksgiving since the end of
the first World War. Our enemies
in this even greater world war are
surrendering."
He appealed, however, for a sober
consideration of "the enormous prob
lens which confront u.s." These, he
said, were the problems not only of
recovery in our own country but
of recovery of the progressive forces
| Of Western civilization"
"The causes lie deep In the holo-
caust of misery from the war, from
power politics, from the impulse for
any change from the bitter years
which have passed." he said. "A
score Of Fascist nations have shifted
to Communism, and half a dozen
nations once liberty loving are shift
ing to Socialism. The most recent
chapter is the Socialist victory in
England"
Gives Britain as Example.
Assailing the "impoverishment
and servitude of such system" Mr..
Hoover said "the British Socialist
program should bring home to the
American people that this is no
academic question. While their pro-
gram is a creeping Socialism, their
platform has been stated time and
again-as ultimately to take over
by the government all the instru-
mentalities of production and dis
tribution including the nationaliza-
ton of the land
Whether the Nation which was
the mother of liberty in the Western
World will take over for the Gov
ernment the title to every farm,
