THE BEST NEWS IN
MONTHS
Perhaps the best news for Shelton in some;
Amonths, and for various good reasons, is that the:
Qway has been,cleared and soon will be in progress;
one of the new Safeway Stores of the class being}
built in many places with adjoining parking;
space, which when completed will help to relieve;
the car and shopper congestion at the present,
store location at Second and Cota Streets.
Almost as important will be the removal of,
an old eyesore which stands at the corner of two
main streets and the approach to the rather eX-,
tensive parking project carried out this summer;
for four blocks along Railroad avenue, which has!
already received much favorable comment fromi
those who drive along the highway and catch a
glimpse of the improvement which has been made,
And it is worth noting that this marks the
completion of plans in mind and the hopes of;
years in creating a pleasing city center withi
lawns, shrubs and flowers, and including the new‘
Postoffice block, City Hall, Legion and Masonic,
buildings, and the more recent improvement of
the Company Garage, L. M. Furniture Depart-
ment, Warehouse, and the hiding of the railroad!
shops and tracks behind an ornamental wire}
fence. Once the civic minded had thought it hope-l
less to expect the improvement. of the railroadf
and property along Shelton’s main street, but a?
short year has proved what a concerted effortl
will do toward beautifying a city. ‘
Perhaps best of all is the expression of con--
fidence by a large'mercantile concern spread over;
the West in the future growth and prospects for}
Shelton’s permanency, and their large investment‘
should inspire an equal confidence in the com-i
munity itself and the newcomers who are a‘ttract-‘
fed here by the industries and encouraged to build;
:‘homes for themselves. Incidentally, the class of;
the newer homes being built in Shelton indicates
the wisdom of such investment for the future. I
AN EVIL GENII UNCOBKED
President Roosevelt is now facing the genii
he uncorked earlier in the game in the person of;
a greatly magnified President Lewis, who is nowi
asserting his claim to dictate to the nation’s 130,—?
000.000, souls, as well as his own special group,l
,and determine their fate ‘,
While this present issue is trifling, merely;
over five per cent of the men dn “captive” coal,
mines who have refused to pay dues tribute to‘
Lewis, there are many other big issues to be set-l
tled, notably the welders, the airplane and shipi
workers and the railroad men.
But it will be noted that all the recent strikes
have been in key spots plainly intended to hold,
mind was bent on crippling the United States in'
its efforts to get behind the men who have been
forced ,into service. l
Congressnow threatens, if President Roos’e-I
velt gives the word, to pass legislation intended
to delay or prevent strikes in defense industry,
but probably nothing much will be done until the
nation arises in its wrath and in plain English
tells the President, Congress and the big labor
leaders to stop foolishness all along the line, if:
it is not too late. ,
It goes without saying that the great massl
of American labor is patriotic to the core, and'
could not well be otherwise since it is largely}
their sons who are. in the ranks and may in due
time be on the firing line; but their leaders seem
\
to be drunk with power over millions of men and!
money and have set themselves even above the
President. The average worker is well satisfied
and only asks to be let alone and permitted to-geti
in full time on his job. ' ,

WHAT’S BECOME 0F ALUMINUM JUNK?
The 0PM is preparing for a nation wide cam-I
paign against waste and after the success in
gathering up old aluminum by the public, is talk-;
ing of similar campaigns for scrap metal, Isuchl
as has not already gone to Japan; waste paper and!
any old junk around the home, and soon the land,
may resound in the 'old-time cry of “any old rags,l
sacks or bottles.” .
Come to think of it there have been no re-e
turns from the aluminum campaign and it is said
that much of this is still hanging around old ware-
houses, but that none of it will ever see new life;
in an airplane, as was promised when the people;
got behind the campaign and encouraged thei'rl
boys to gather it up.
It is all very well. to make fun of “,Herrg
Schickleburger” but we must hand it to Hitler for
getting things done, starting from. scratch after
World War and building the greatest war and!
fighting machine on earth, and no fooling.

Olympia Has Easy Time in Annual
Thanksgiving Clash, Win-
ning by 33 to 0
What tiny satisfaction any Shel— V
ton fan could salvage out of Olym-
pia’s easy 33 to 0 Victory over
the Highclimbers in the annual
Thanksgiving Day football game
could only come from one source
—the sensational play of Ted Van- '
Ted closed three years of play
as a Highclimber regular with by
far the finest game of his high
school football career. He made
tackles on both sides of the field,
whether' the play came his way
or went to the other side, he
blocked vigorously and until the
last couple of minutes of the game
climbers completed, most of them
pretty difficult catches.
There would hardly be an ob—
jector even among Olympia fol-~
lowers to label the rangy Shelton
end as the outstanding player of
the game, despite the obvious fact
that the Bears must have had
some stars to run up a five-touch-
down verdict.
From‘ the first minute of play
there was little question of the
outcome. After kicking off to
time they laycd hands on the ball,
returning Sheltonls punt for a 65—
yard touchdown via a lateral from
Ted Leidy to Tim Randall.
The Highclimbers held until the
second play of the second quarter
before yielding another Bear tally,
but Randall culminated a 50-yard
drive which started with a pass
four yards. Passes from Leid‘y to
Jack VanEaton played an impor-
tant role in the advance.
The Bears scored again in the
scoring after passes and laterals
had put the Bears in position af-
'ter a 60—yard march. Two touch-
downs in the last period turned
the game into a rout, Randall
throwing a pass to Darrel Sand-
ers for one and Ray Bert, center.
intercepting a pass and rambling
45 yards for the last one. i
The Highclimbers held Olympia
well enough on running plays but
couldn’t fathom the Bear laterals
and passes, which were used ex—
tensively. Shelton’s line played
good ball defensively but very
poor ball offensively.
Outside of VanOverbeke, High—
climber luminaries were Carrol
.Hill and Donn Nelson in the line
and Bob Puhn in the backfield.
Olympia made tcn first downs,
Shelton three.

Comparison of Navy and Civilian
A study of the incomes of an enlisted man in the Navy, and
a civilian. iud‘ ‘ w by co arison that a Seaman First Class
probably has 7' net i come than a civilian making ten-

The comparison appearing below is intended to reflect this
in greater detail.
