FRIEDMAN JOINS THE WAVES 
   Lucille Friedman, in-
structor at the Amache sec-
ondary school, received
her induction notice for
the WAVES Monday.  She will
report to officers’ train-
ing school in Smith College,
North Hamption, Mass., on
Sept.   25.
  When asked how she feels
about being inducted, she
simply replied, "I'm sorry
to go, for I'll miss the
kids."
   She expressed her pre-
ference for WAVES because
her brother is in the Navy.
   In a short while Fried-
man will hand in her resig-
nation    as     an instructor,
but, in the meantime, she
still performs her duties
as teacher and friend to
the  students.
   “Write to me, and keep
up my morale," she asks of
the   students.

DENSON,   Ark….
   A three-per cent interest
rate on co-op membership
certificates was  declared.
  Two hundred high school
boys were assigned to go
woodcutting for a period
of three weeks.
They  Game,  We Saw,   Here's  The  Story-
   Onlookers     (   curious   or 
looking    for      friends   )   ,
"courtesy  service" men,   nur- 
ses'   aides,   Boy  Scouts     (a
definite     pause   in tribute 
to  those  hard-working  gen-
tlemen),   press   people,   si- 
lent  "observers,"appointed 
personnel-all these and
more, too, contributed to
the congested goings -on
that constituted, the induc-
tion of more  than 500 Tule-
ans at the high school aud-
itorium Wednesday evening,
a day earlier than sched-
uled.
  The first busload ar-
rived at the point of in-
duction at about 6:30 p.m.
(leaving Tule Lake at
8:55 a.m. Monday, they
reached  Granada at 6 Wednes-
day), and the process of
rushing them through to
their respective blocks
went somewhat as follows,
as  seen from the sidelines.
  As each person entered
the building, he was given
a routine health check (the
usual”say ahhh-“business),
after which each family
head was sent through the 
usual registration proce-
dure, given a silk-screened
Neebo welcoming here,
a pamphlet containing in-
formation about Amache, a
copy of the PIONEER, and
the assignment to his apart-
ment.   We don't doubt but
what  the  newcomers were   a
trifle taken aback at the
formidable line-up of some
20 girls   and   one   boy wait-
ing to "register" them.
(The original plan called
for  six.)
   Boy Scouts were on hand
to transport baggage from
the buses to their very
worried owners, and were
it not for their splendid
work, considerable m o r e
congestion would have re-
sulted. As it was, the
fellows (from the busy as-
sistant Scoutmaster to the
four-foot     Cub     carrying
the five-by- five bundle)
handled their job with a
minimum of mishaps.
   Tired as they must have
been, the travel-weary Tu-
leans managed to remain
fairly cheerful through the
bustle of registration, es-
pecially when on occasion
they spotted friends not
seen  in years.
   It was about 7:30 p.m.
when the last person had
been processed and given
instructions as to baggage
and  housing.
   Housing problems, inci-
dentally,will for several
days be a jolly headache
both for Tuleans and for
administrative officials.
The former will be largely
concerned about being "miles
apart"from friends and fa-
mily,while the latter will
be faced with the task of
correcting the situation
(everybody concerned fondly
hopes ).
