Granada P I O N E E R
Vol. I, No. 46 Amache, Colorado March 10, 1945
ENLISTMENT ENDS TODAY;
MINIDOKA HEADS LIST
A special appeal is be-
ing directed towards single
and unattached men who
answered "Yes, if drafted"
to number 27 of the ques-
tionnaire to come in for
Army enlistment before it
closes at 4:30 p.m. today,
said Walter J. Knodel, ad-
ministrative member of the
military team.
Quite a number of last-
minute volunteers have been
reporting to the employment
office. According to sta-
tistics, men with a greater
amount of responsibilities
have come in, he added.
In a wire received yes-
terday, WRA Director Dillon
S. Myer announced that 300
Minidoka residents volun-
teered for the Army.
The 300 volunteers in-
clude 41 who are married
and 24 with children, and
11 Japanese-born men who
are not eligible for serv-
ice at the present time.
Project Director James
G. Lindley reminded resi-
dents that enlistments will
be taken until 4:30 p.m.
today at the office of Wal-
ter J. Knodel.

RED CROSS
NETS $1795
The Granada relocation
center raised $1794.93 as
its contribution to the Red
Cross War fund, announced
John 0. Moore, head of the
drive. Of this amount,
$540.17 came from the ad-
ministrative personnel and
$1254.76 from the evacuees.
The education department
led all the administrative
divisions with a contribu-
tion of $166, while 8K
turned in the largest sum
among the center blocks,
with $60.35.
No active soliciting
was carried on among the
evacuees, nor was there a
quota set. All contribu-
tions by the center resi-
dents were voluntary, Moore
reminded. The $500 goal
set for this project ap-
plied to the administrative
personnel only.
Moore expressed his ap-
preciation for the co-oper-
ation he received from
both the administrative
staff and the evacuees.
The result, he thought, was
quite remarkable.
RESIDENTS MUST
REGISTER NOW
Any person who failed
to do so must register
immediately at the employ-
ment office , announced
Registrar Lewis W. Fans-
lan.
