Page 8___________________PIONEER_________March 24, 1943 BETWEEN US GIRLS BY TAXIE KUSUNOKI Falling in luv iz like falling downstairs; we never kan tell exact- ly how the things waz did. --Josh Billings HEH, HEH!l We have a sneaking sus- picion that the telegraph operator at La Junta is trying to do some social work on the side. In a telegram sent here by Hana Uno from La Junta to in- form the parents of the girls who went with her to the conference that their daughters would extend their stay, the operator relayed: "Please reform parents, Rikimaru, Konishi, etc. children staying over- night." WARNING Do not believe any ru- mors instigated in this center by Tosh Ninomiya. Within the past week, he has "married off" a half dozen couples, every one of whom would l-o-v-e to get him into a dark, dark corner. ETC…. And this is as good a time as any to give you another of our friend Anon's choice sayings--Remember your tongue is in a wet place and likely to slip! SQUELCHED Didja hear of this male, who, in an attempt to show his superiority, had to ad- mit utter defeat to…a horse? He hiked 65 miles in 19 hours in a race with a horse, but returned to home base to learn the horse had covered 135 miles! FEMAIL "Fascinating Suyeo" Sako rec'd his second fan letter this week. Like the first, this one came from a girl. His cohorts hoot and heckle , but Sako claims "they're just jealous." AND--" Don't forget Tad Has- call's music appreciation hour (6:30-7:30) tomorrow night: 8H-3B. You're li- able to get everything from Rimsky-Korsakov' s Scheherezade to righteous New Orleans jazz. Fun! FILM CHANGE IS EXPLAINED "Pardon My Sarong," which began its run here last night, will be shown through Sunday evenings, according to the recreation depart- ment. On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights, chapter three of the serial, "Mys- tery Mountain" will accom- pany the main feature at all showings. However, a new film, "Iron Duke," starring George Arliss, will also be shown Friday, Saturday, and Sun- day, together with the ser- ial, at the mess hall not showing "Pardon My Sarong." In this way, two different movies will be shown in the center, for the three days beginning Friday. This will enable residents who wish to see the serial- without seeing "Pardon My" Sarong" to do so by going to the mess hall showing "Iron Duke." The same ser- ial will be shown at both places. Must Obtain Ration Books It is absolutely nece- ssary that food ration books be obtained by all persons leaving the cen- ter, says Leave Officer Willis Hanson, especially since meat and edible fats rationing goes into effect on March 28. Hanson, who is in charge of issuing these ration books, reports that it re- quires at least a week to secure them so all resi- dents who anticipate leav- ing the center are advised to apply for their books at least a week in ad- vance. To Check Idle Farm Machinery SACRAMENTO, March 17-- The California Department of Agriculture last week began an inventory of Japa- nese-owned machinery, now rusting and idle on farms and in warehouses through- out California. Frank M, Kramer, super- vising inspector of the de- partment, said: "The State Department of Agriculture is bringing this important matter to the attention of the Feder- al authorities, and will do everything it can to get this vital agricultural machinery -released to our farmers….” Washington officials so far have denied governmental agencies the right to take steps to obtain possession of the machinery. A preliminary check dis- closed that 267 tractors, owned by Japanese, were idle. TWO TYPEWRITERS ARE MISSING Two typewriters borrowed from the Housing office at the time the Housing office was located in the barrack buildings have not been re- turned. Please return the type- writers at once to the Housing office or the Prop- erty office. Both are L. C. Smith typewriters, serial numbers 401266 and 202309. The FARM FRONT More than one-half of all the farm land on the proj- ect has been given over to outside farmers to work be- cause of the lack of farm workers from the center and of necessary equipment. The farm section has given permits for these farmers to take over and some are preparing to start. Some 1200 acres have been turned over to these farm- ers. More people are negotiating for land, on the proj- ect. They will raise alfalfa, sugar beets, feed crops, and grain on the land that is located north of the San- ta Fe railroad tracks. The farm section is trying to get the necessary ma- chinery, but is finding it very difficult. Most of the needed seeds have been purchased and are available. Planting of early peas and onions is ready to begin.
