month of September, is working
with boys Monday and Tuesday
evenings. Miss Davis expressed
the hope that It will be possible to
continue the services Of Mr.. Hav.
ems throughout the winter, as the
need for boys group leaders, is
great. Many OF the girls OF the
vicinity are being served through
the Girl Scout troops which meet
at Gilbert House. but very little
is being done for the younger boys,
she said.
Kenneth Lindner Of the Gilbert
House board, has volunteered to
teach chess one evening each week
to the older boys. The University
of Michigan is conducting English
classes In the basement for the
Mexican group Thursday and Fri,
day evenings. A picture OF the
class has been taken, and list OF
their activities has been made 10
send to Washington. II is expect
ed that the Mexicans will remain in
this vicinity for about six months
after the termination OF the war
The Mexican senior girls have a
fine hostess group, and It is hoped
that the organization may be con
tinued after they leave.
For the Teen Canteen groups
there are very few who will take
the responsibility OF leadership and
management. A small group is
working on plans for this year. The
junior and the children's canteen
will not open until volunteer help
ers from the Normal can be Sc,

Post-Season Pruning Of Fruit Trees

WHEN IS the proper time to
prune fruit trees? AS a general
answer, II Is safe to say that prun-
ing can best be done during the
winter or early spring months.
With apple and pear trees,
which suffer from winter killing,
the annual post-season pruning
can as well be done in February
and March, in the north.
When pruning Is for the remov-
al OF small branches, the early
spring season Is probably as salts
factory as any other.
Pruning even during late spring.

Miners GET Extra Meat
As 0PA Studies Plan
To Aid Other Workers

BY the Associated Press.
More workers in heavy manual
labor may get extra food rations
already granted to coal and ore min
ers and few others.
The OPA said today it is consid-
ering recommendations to provide
supplementary points for longshore-
men, stevedores, foundrymen and
those engaged in strenuous con-
struction work.
These recommendations were
made by the National Research
Council, which had urged the extra
meat, fats and sugar rations award
ed coal and ore miners yesterday by
the OPA.
Expanding test program in ef-
feet since July in the Denver and
San Francisco areas, 0PA an
nounced that beginning the first
week of August, coal and ore min
ers elsewhere will be eligible for ad-
ditional ration stamps.
Persons engaged In work requir-
ing continuous exertion of muscu-
lar strength" will receive a maxi
mum of so supplementary red points
a month for meats and fats and an
extra pound of sugar each month.
Those eligible include underground
workers except supervisors, and q
few surface workers, such as black
smiths and tipple employees.
Earlier, with the explanation that
heavy manual work requires more
calories, OPA had provided extra
point allotments for loggers, har-
vesters, deep-sea and inland water
way fishermen and few miners and
construction workers fed by en-
ployers in isolated areas.
Numerous miners have complained
that the regular allotment Of so rec
points month did not provide them
with sufficient meat. Work stop
pages at Illinois mines earlier this
week were attributed by union lead
ers to the ration situation.
Operations were resumed only
after OPA promised to provide more
points.
