CANTEENERS T0 AID IN BOTTLE DRIVE

Two of the city’s most enthusiastic salvaged groups, the junior police and the teen-canfeeners, are going to the rescue of the soft drink bottlers, now gripped in critical bottle shortage. In answer to a request from the bottlers’ association, the two groups. are conducting a two-week city-wide bottle collection. The drive will continue through June 23. Six junior police groups and 14 teen-canteen units will make individual collections of milk and soft drink bottles. The unit collecting the most bottles will be awarded a $50 war bond by the association and the runner-up will receive a $25 bond. Proceeds = from the reclaimed bottles will be used for junior police uniforms and for athletic equipment for both organizations. Bottlers stressed that the drive Is not to: collect bottles used daily in exchange purchases, but .to bring in excess supplies stored and out of use. Sgt. Golden Reynolds, head of the junior police, will direct that group's

activities while the teen-canteeners |

will be headed by Mrs. Wynn Arnholter,
