For the first time, we have been called upon to help in the emergency and student body has made a fine and patriotic response. At an assembly held Tuesday, Sep- tember 22, County Farm Labor Board Chairman, Ralph Deliay and Principal G. N. Green, made pleas to the stu- dents. Mr. DeKay pointed out that al- cohol from which smokeless powder is made is obtained from sugar. Enough powder is obtained from an acre of sugar beets to fire a complete salvo from a warship, he further stated. Students interested in working were asked to sign up in home rooms and a large number responded. Students over I4 years of age will be requested to work in the beets while the younger volunteers will work in the potato fields. The foui Hi Y clubs are planning to split up into four competitive squads, The squad making the best record will win a plaque. A few hints to students planning to work in the fields: Wear war-time trousers or slacks. This will prevent you from filling the cuffs with dirt, which in turn might add appreciably to your weight. Pretend that each beet you top is an enemys-this will help you to forget the pain in your spine. Keep your eye on the potato-to para- phrase a golf term--it won't help you any to keep looking back to see how much You've accomplished. Potato pickers and beet toppers go to Aberdeen to help Idaho farmers during harvest vocation. Some of Poky l-ligh's beet toppers save the farmers' crops, and incidentally earn thou- sands of dollars. On the first day of harvest vacation an enthusiastic truck load of students leave the auditorium at eight o'clock. 's-. f'RQ.G5' ' I i MAMA 1 A170 MWA! W ' r My WQ5 faire! .t..'-Illlvqntlk
