not re-induct draft-ag e

which means that they will
be required to report to
their nearest pre-induction
physical examination sta-
tion when called.
CALL FOR  WOMEN”CATSKINNERS”
AS  LABOR  SHORTAGE  FORESEEN
   Local project's farm division doesn't harbor any
desire to get caught with its "plants down," so it is
making an urgent plea for-of all things-woman tractor
operators to forestall the impending labor problem this
season when the boys  "get  caught  in the    draft."
   Farm land preparations are already behind schedule,
bemoans Roy Nakatani, farm office manager, but despite
obstacles lettuce, spinach, beets and radishes have
been planted. Planting of dry onions and Irish pota-
toes are in full swing, and other varieties will soon
be transplanted  from the hot beds.
   Nakatani stated that other centers have already
hired woman tractor operators, so interested female
evacuees are urged to register at the farm division or
timekeepers  office.
RICHARD  SHERMAN
TO  LEAVE  FOR  ARMY
   Another veteran member
of the local appointed
personnel, Richard C.Sher-
man, property officer,pas-
sed his pre-induction phy-
sical examination on Feb.
22 and is scheduled to be
inducted Feb. 27 at Fort
Logan. Sherman, who will
bid farewell to Amache Sat-
urday, served as a CCC
company commander at Little-
ton, Colo., before joining
the WRA staff.
   He stated: "After ap-
proximately 14 months of
service with the Granada
relocation center, I can
honestly say that I have
greatly enjoyed  my work
and experiences at Amache.
I sincerely appreciate and
value the friendship that
was  given me."
