Entered as Second Glass Matter, at the Postofflce at American Fork, Utah, under the act of March 3. 1879 uitiAMll f DITOtlAL Subscription Rate $150 Per Year We Love You, Girls in Blue! Dear WAVES, . You are now 10 years old. July 30 was your birthday. And we love you. As a military editor during WWII we had a chance to see and know a great number of wonderfully disciplined, sharp, well-trained young women. As we say, we loved you then and we love you now. But there's someone who doesn't love you, or else the , public relations staff in charge of your tenth anniversary has been sold a bill of goods. And here's our reason to think so: - Perhaps you are unaware that for your tenth anniversary the armed services Home Town News, something or other, sent out a beautiful montage matrix size five columns 12 inches deep, along with a three-page story. As we said, we love you, but we-love our newspaper even better, because that's how we make our beans Now girls, hasn't anyone told you that newsprint has gone sky high? Or that weekly newspapers in these times must be held so tight, in order to squeeze out an honest nickle, that sometimes we don't even get all of the home town news in the week it happens? It's a fact We're now writing our stories so tight that even the obituary page screams. In that beautiful montage there are 11 different functions of the Waves shown. All of the Waves were so beautiful we wanted to use it against our better judgement Now here's a little secret on how your anniversary might have gotten a big play in the country's weekly press. Often, there are a few holes, now and then, that need to be plugged up many times an editor and makeup man will look for a casting cast-ing that runs from one to two columns. Now here's the secret: You just tell your PRO to break up your different functions func-tions as Wawes into mats of not more than two columns, with a good cutline story. Have the PRO'S send these mats together far enough ahead of your celebrations or what ever else and 111 bet you a pound of salt water taffy that hundreds of editors would use them. And oh, yes. Tell them to keep separate stories to one page or less. ., ' Now as to the matter of paper, and nice flat 9x12 manila envelops, which could easily be substituted with No. 10 envelops, en-velops, in which to send stories that do not concern our district dis-trict or state. Please send only when one of our men or women in service are involved. And also, tell everone that you talk with in all the services that if all PRO's used half as much paper, there'd be enough newsprint so that we might could use a 3 column six matrix on another important anniversary, v But as we said in the beginning, we love you!

Korean Veterans Have University Rules Change New type veterans, those of the Korean war, will join the collegiate crowd when the Uni versity of Utah fall quarter begins be-gins In September. Some 25 Korean Ko-rean veterans have already applied ap-plied for schooling there. Several features of the educa tion bill for Korean veterans are different from those of the World War n legislation Unl verslty officials report Korean veterans cannot register for school before August 20, 1952, and must enroll by August 20, 1954 or within two years of their discharge, whichever date is latest. The new legislation is also dif ferent in nature. It is designed in measure, to convert the vet eran into a cash student and a-ward a-ward him Instead of the school with a scholarship. Instead of paying the school directly for a student's schooling as it did under un-der the old GI bill, the VA now pays the veteran and he 4s responsible res-ponsible for paying his tuition, fees, and other school costs. This new method of payment will make some difference in costs charged by the school. It will enable universities to reinstate re-instate out-of-state fees for veterans vet-erans and collect such payment from veteran as well as non-vet eran students. a community that Is advancing and keeping up with the best of them.

American Fork has been building, rebuilding,: and modernizing, which serves as a reminder that we're returning to Utah's Progress Ai&d By Provo Foundry 6 Machine Co. One ol the Provo firms that have been especially Instrumental Instru-mental In the progress of Utah Is the Provo Foundry and Machine Ma-chine Co., located at 400 East 9th South In the manufacturing center of the Provo district Established in 1895, the con cern Is today one of the oldest from standpoint of continuous operation serving the people of this district. Starting from a small beginning fifty-three, years ago, this concern has grown and flourished as Provo Itself has prospered. Today Provo Foundry and Machine Co. is a recognized leader as a fabricator of steel and their mammoth plant is kept constantly busy manufacturing manufac-turing the myriad of smaller items it-ems up to the highly sought after af-ter steel pipe and tanks. Much of the success of this enterprise is due to the splendid manner in which president Tho mas F. Pierpont and vice-president T. J. Larsen have directed the activities of the Urm. Mr. Pierpont gained his practical education ed-ucation In working with the firm during its less prosperous days and has subsequently solved many problems of overhead, distribution dis-tribution and purchase of raw materials so satisfactorily that the concern is now able to suc cessfully compete with any foun dry and machine shop in the Intermountaln region. The location in Provo of this enterprise accounts for the success suc-cess that central Utah has achieved as a manufacturing center as other industles will not locate where there is not a foundry and machine shop to keep industry on the move.
