Summer Drive Shows Some Common Articles Useless

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The drafting of a great portion of the student body will place a new source of scrap before the authorities now conducting the College's war drive. The metal and rubber collected will be used in the making of guns, engine mounts, airplane de-icers, protective padding and other vital war products.

All cloth contributed will be converted into much needed "wastes," used in cleaning machinery. To the U.S.O. will go all money which is realized from the sale of old or broken records collected in the drive.

According to Bradford Cobb '44. War Service Committee. "The student made a good showing last summer by contributing two wagon loads--all of it grade A scrap--but we hope that they will do even better this time. Tin cans, bottle caps and cost hangers are not wanted. Cobb pointed out, since experience this summer proved that they were more of an annoyance than a benefit.
