WARTIME NEEDS

CHANGE i * \ i 6REYH0UND SCHEDULES EFFECTIVE WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3RD... Greyhound buses will operate on new war-time schedules. This change in service is being made in order to cooperate to the fullest extent with the ^war-time plans of the Office of Defense Transportation. The purpose is :to make every bus work full time-keeping vital traffic on the move.

Amtrka't war protram has the right at way! The great majority of the people Greyhound is carrying today and iatendt to carry efficiently are selectees traveling to examination centers, fighting men on leave or furlough, war worker* moving to their jobs, businessmen traveling on essential work. The trips they take are necessary to keep the war program rolling. With Increased service demanded for war production areas—and little increase in buses available—it is necessary to divert equipment to routes where it is most

needed.

Many peace-time features are discontinued. Operating speeds are aomewhat reduced. Express and Limited schedules are eliminated entirely. Second sections of regular schedules are being eliminated unless the buses carry a sufficient number of pasaengers. Greyhound schedules will be combined with

those of other

necessary.

bus companies, when

Conservation of rubber is all-important— and Greyhound is taking every possible I step to increase the big savings already effected. Today buses use only a fraction as much rubber as private cars per passenger, per mile—and they average more than 40,000 miles per tire. We hope that these war-time changes will not cause you inconvenience, crowding or delay. But if you don’t find travel as comfortable and easy as in normal times, please make allowances! The war effort comes first with Greyhound as it does with you I You Can Help by getting information about the new schedules before you travel — taking as little baggage as possible — traveling before or after the mid-summer rush period — taking your trip on mid-week days, leaving seats on week-ends for soldiers and war workers, .-

We said recently that the 1942 senior class of the Greencastle high school was the largest, in history, tout we have been informed that in 1925 there were 111 graduates. We referred to the files and found this was correct. As far as we can tell now. this year’s senior class of 103 members, is the second largest group in 64 Commencement exercises at the local school.

And Incidentally, the bass season for this locality will open June 16, which gives Putnam anglers two weeks before the indicated clamp-down on petrol.
