Postoffice to Help

Meanwhile, officials at the federal building are ng plans to strip the postoffice property of all its metal ornaments, including the im- ' posing light standards mounted on the balustrades and the naval gun on the Ohio st. sidewalk. Postmaster Adolph Seidensticker . has written to Washington for per- . mission to sell the stuff to war industries. It is not clear which federal department has control over the naval . gun, but any red tape over that is expected to be ironed out quickly to get the piece back into action ' again. A Scout Army Growing : Ralph W. Hook, head of the Boy Scout scrap project, said the number. of scouts in the field collecting scrap has been increased from 2000 to more than 4000. He estimated that about fourfifths of all scouts in central Indiana had enrolled as “scrap commandos.’ 3 "At Elkhart, Ind, Miss Catherine Wolf, nationally ranking tennis star, has announced donation of 40 loving cups and other trophies to the scrap drive.

YOUTHS LINE UP T0 ENLIST HERE

Nation's ‘Best Fighters” in City Prove Eager to

Join Services.

i The nation’s “best fighters” ee youths of 18 and 19 years—have been lining up at the recruiting

offices here this week. They're not been ordered into service yet by congress, but they've been told by military leaders that they make the best fighting men. “That’s one reason why they're flocking to recruiting offices all over the nation,” Sergt. C. M. Folk of the local army recruiting station said here today. He reported that “better than 25 per cent” of the enlistments this week have been by the 18 and 19-year-olds.

Waiting in Morning

“Some days theyre lined up waiting for us when we get in in the morning,” he said. And the line sometimes extends into the hall of the federal building. At the navy recruiting office a similar trend existed. Yesterday's 70 enlistments there included 21 youth! of 18 and 19 years, Monday and Tuesday's enlist-

iments in the navy here were higher

and the lower age bracket had a greater number. ;
