"IH kiss those tears away,", paid her escort , He did the best he knew how, but the tears still flowed on.. Finally he asked, "Will nothing stop them?" "No," she murmered. "It's asthma, asth-ma, but go on with the treatment." "Look, Daddy," said a little six-year-old, "I pulled this cornstalk right up all . by my self." "My, but you are strong!" said his father. "I guess" I am, Daddy. The whole world had hold of the other end of it." Winnie S. "If you subtract sub-tract fourteen from a hundred hun-dred sixteen, what's the difference?"

With the final score reading 27-20, the game was packed with thrills and fast plays that kept the crowds of spectators from noticing notic-ing the low temperature. The field was soggy from Friday Fri-day morning's snowfall, which was removed a short time before the kickoff, making playing difficult, dif-ficult, but that didn't prevent the two teams from furnishing the some 1500 enthusiastic supporters sup-porters in the stands from witnessing wit-nessing one of the best football classics in many years. The score by quarters was as follows: (Cyprus reading first) 13-7, 7-7, 0-0, 7-6, total, 27-20. Evans made all three of the Lehi touchdowns, and both the points after kicks. The Pioneers suffered two casualties cas-ualties during the game, Cooper going out with an injured leg in the third quarter, and Roberts following him with a neck Injury. In-jury. This is the first time that Lehi has ever sent a football team to the state tournament, and their splendid record of this season earns the congratulations and hearty approval of students and townspeople alike.

The boys have shown an all-out effort, and if this year's record is any indication of what is to come, Lehi will not be long in claiming the title for herself.

Vital War Plants Need 400 More Workers Vital war plants in Provo must have at least 400 more workers to meet urgent war production needs, W. L. Mildenhall, manager of the United States Employment Employ-ment Service, said today, in calling call-ing on eligible workers to consult the United States Employment Service of WMC before seeking jobs elsewhere. in spite oi recent outpaces in certain types of war production, Mr. Mildenhall said, there is a continued need for workers to fill important war jobs in Provo plants producing "must" items for the armed forces. This is a "must" program, Mr. Mildenhall said." Although we are winning, the war in Europe is not over, and the war in the Pacific may continue for a long time, he said. According to a statement by the Office of War Information, the opinion of high military and oth- tr government authorities is that the defeat of Japan will not be accomplished for at least one and one-half to two years after Germany is beaten, he added. War production comes first and, will continue to come first, Mr. Mildenhall said. The local USES office, which is located at 40 North University Avenue, can provide eligible workers with the necessary information concerning concern-ing war jobs in this community. Mr. Mildenhall emphasized the importance of consulting the local USES office before a work er migrates to another area, Every worker, whether engaged in non-essential work, he pointed out, should have a Statement of Availability from the USES in the area he is leaving in order to be sure of a referral to a job in the area to which he is going. Failure to secure a Statement may result in delays and difficulty diffi-culty in securing new employment, employ-ment, he warned. In going to another area, the worker is, of course, subject to priority referral refer-ral controls in effect in that area, and must therefore go to the local USES office there.

Steel Workers Given Pay Raise NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 26 The decision taken today by the War Labor Board seriously af fects tne governments wage stabilization policy, said Irving S. Olds, chairman board of direc tors of United States Steel. By its action, the Board has ordered increases for a great many of the wage earners in the steel manufacturing subsidiaries of united states steel corpora tion retroactive to January 3, 1944, he said. Money to pay increases must come from somewhere. Whatever the source, the public eventually pays the bill in one way or an other. This mascome about in one of several ways: (1) Higher prices for steel products and a wide range of manufactured ar tides requiring steel; (2) Higher High-er income taxes made necessary by substantial reductions in governmental gov-ernmental receipts from taxes on the earnings of industrial concerns; con-cerns; (3) Fewer jobs resulting from the financial weakening of private enterprise, Mr. Olds declared. de-clared.
