Granada P I O N E E R Vol. I, No. 67 Amache, Colorado May 22, 194 3 SANITATION Rules Given A step designed to re- lease more workers for the center farm has been taken by the sanitation depart- ment which this week cut down the number of stokers employed. Hereafter, res- idents will be allowed to use the laundries from 8 a.m.. to 10 p.m., and the baths and showers, from 12 noon to 10 p.m. only. SEEK SIX INSTRUCTORS Six native-speaking Jap- anese, preferably men, are being sought by J. M. Cow- an, director, Intensive Language Program of the American Council of Learned Societies, to serve as teaching assistants. Ap- plicants should not be old- er than 25 years of age, but the absolute age limit is set at 30 years. Persons accepted will undergo a training period at Yale university, and will receive $150 per month, plus travel expenses to Yale, the salary to hold during the training period. The three important re- quirements are fluency in speaking the standard To- kyo dialect of the Japa- nese language, education, and personality. Reading and writing ability in the Japanese language, while desirable, is by no means essential, said Cowan. Persons interested in these positions are asked to contact the employment office immediately. RADAMAKER HERE John Radamaker has ar- rived to assume his duties as a social analyst in the community services division. In the state of Washington he worked with the Japanese Americans and also speaks the language. Prior to that he taught at Bates College, Me. ===CALENDAR=== TODAY 7:00 p.m.--Movies, "Kitty Foyle," 7E mess hall. 7:30 p.m.--YBA social, Ter- ry hall. 7:45 p.m.--Movies, 6G mess hall.

YOUTHS 3 Sentenced Charged with beating up an employee of the co-op shoe store, three center youths, Ken Muranaga, George Uriyu, and Kow Takesako, were sentenced to 60 days in the county jail at La- mar this week, according to Police Chief Harlow M. Tomlinson. They were reported to have assaulted Henry Kaji- oka, shoe clerk, Saturday night, because he had named them and two other juve- niles as having stolen a pair of shoes from the co- op store that same after- noon. The youths called out Kajioka, who was at a dance, and depended to know why he had told the police a- bout the theft. Upon Ka- jioka 's reply that "it was his duty," they turned on him and beat him to the ground. On being taken before the justice of peace in Lamar, Tuesday, the boys pleaded guilty to the charg- es made. SPRINGER REDUCE GAS ALLOTMENT In compliance with sug- gestions made by Guy M. Springer, district manager of the Office of Defense Transportation, who has made a check-up visit to Amache, reduced allotments of gas- oline and mileage have been put into effect by the center 's transportation division. The new gasoline allow - ance is 9,100 gallons, per month for the next quarter year; the mileage allowance is to be 81,833 miles per month. Gasoline previously allowed per month was 15,000 gallons, and 115,000 miles was allotted monthly pre - vious to the new orders. This is approximately a 40 per cent reduction in both mileage and fuel, and serves as notice that no transportation vehicle may travel more than the abso- lute minimum in order to accomplish the needs of this center. VISIT CENTER Thomas Cavett and Gene Hagberg, representatives of the Dies committee, were among visitors in Amache this week. They arrived here Thursday on official, business. They left for Heart. Mountain yesterday. VOLUNTEERS LEAVE Walter J. Knodel, center Selective Service officer, announced that 66 of the total 124 Amache volunteers have left for induction up to Thursday. A contingent of 19 enlistees left for Denver Thursday.
