The speaker warned that stock-ing up on necessities and ma-terials in which there is a short-age will add to the danger and probability of inflation.

During this emergency, Mayor Johnson predicted, there will be increasing demands made on en- -, tertainment within the commu-nity. There being a rubber short-age, more people will have to find amusement nearer home.

BINGHAM-DAVI- S CLASH TONIGHT IN FIRST HOME GAME Bingham Miners surprised sup-porters and Jordan district bas-ketball fans alike last Friday at Murray by exhibiting a nigh class brand of ball in their in-itial game of the season. .The speedy Smelterites were hard put to win a 23 to.20 victory from the local quintet. Tonight Davis, who last week won 36 to 22 over the Cyprus Pirates, comes to Bingham. Games begin at 7 and 8 p.m. Taking the lead in the first few minutes of play, Bingham led over Murray at the end of the first three periods, 8 to 6; 14 to 10 and 20 to 17- - In the first of the final canto the Smelter-ites stubbornly blasted ahead. Bingham tried desperately but was unable to overtake Murray, and failed to score in the final period. Sheen, Poulsen and Thur-mond scored high for Bingham. Just before the Murray-Bingha- m game during warm-up- , John Susaeta, star guard, twisted his knee and was unable to play. Ac-cording to Coach Warren G. All-so- p, Susaeta has been a consis-tent scorer in practice games and it is probable his injury will keep him from action the rest of the year. Bob Nichols substituted in Susaeta's position and played a bang-u- p defensive game. The boys have worked hard this week to find a combination that will upset the Darts. Scho-fiel- d, all state guard from last year's sojiad, is the star on the Davis crew, rated as the best team in the state. Probable line-up- s are: Bingham Position Davis Thurmond guard Brown Gleason guard Schofield Poulsen center Childs Sheen fnruarH Nichols forward Galbraith According to Principal T. H. McMullin, 500 new seats have been added to the main floor in the gym, affording plenty of seat-ing space-for-loc- al fans. . Tickets are now on sale for the five home games as follows: season ticket, general admission, $1.12; season tickets, reserved seats, $2.75-Genera- l admission per game is 30 and 40 cents.

Combined Metals and Reduc-tion company at Lark has made arrangements which will permit employees to show their patrio-tism by purchasing defense sav-ings bonds. Utah Copper company employ-ees are working toward a goal of 100 per cent subscription to the Red Cross and are also par-ticipating in the move of pay-roll deductions for regular pur-chases of defense bonds. By the end of the week Na-tional Tunnel and Mines company expects 100 per cent subscription to the Red Cross.

LaGuardia, di-:to- r, sends the following in-ductions to all U. S. citizens on 7ht To Do In Event of An r Raid" - 1. Keep Cool: Don't lose your ad. Do not crowd the streets, roid chaos, prevent disorder d iiavoc. If planes come over iy where you are. Do not tele-on- e unnecessarily. 2. Stay home: The safest place at home. If incendiary bombs J, play a spray from the gar-- n hose (never splash or stream), fitch to a stream to put any e Started by the bomb. Switch ckj to a spray for the bomb, lefbomb will turn about 15 nutes if let alone. . And only out two minutes under a fine iter spray. A jet splash, stream bucket of water will make it plode. LTader raid conditions keep a thtub and buckets full of wa- -' for the use of the fire depart-m- t in case water mains are aken. - if you have a soda and acid tinguisher (the kind you turn side down) use it with fingers er the nozzle to make a spray. nt use the chemical kind nail cylinder of liquid) on mbs. It is all right for ordin-- f fires. 3. Put out Lights: Whether or t black-o- ut is ordered, don't )W more light than necessary. eee tte If planes come over, put out or cover all lights at once don't wait for the blackout order. Re-member a candle light may be seen for miles from the air. Be ingenious in finding all you need at home to cover windows with a double thickness por-tieres, overdrapes, blankets, hea-vy black paper. Prepare one room, the one with least window plass, in the strongest part of the house, for a refuge room. Put food and drinking water in it. Put a sturdy table, mattresses and chairs in it. Take a magazine or two, deck of cards, toilet facilities, portable radio. 4. Lie Down: If bombs start to fall nearby, lie down. You will feel the blast least that way, es-cape fragments or splinters. Safest place is under a good stout table. A mattress under a table provides comfort and safety. The enemy may use explosive bombs or incendiary bombs, or both. If incendiaries are used, it's more important to deal with them than to be safe from the blast. So defeat the incendiary with a spray of water, then go back to safety under a table in a refuge room. . 5. Stay Away From Windows: Glass shatters easily, so stay away from windows. Don't go to windows and look out, in an air raid. It is a dangerous thing, and does not help combat the enemy. B.H.S. TEACHER GOES TO JORDAN HIGH J. L.
