Trojans Boast Fast, Heavy Team
The Ponce Cavalier varsity will go into an official game for the first time in three weeks as the fighting Trojans of Lake Worth high school visit our home field this afternoon. The upstate team will be here on serious business. Lake Worth has always considered Ponce a traditional rival and can be expected to pull no punches as it tries to avenge the 12-6 defeat handed them on their own field last year. Coach Gary McLendon, when approached Monday, stated that the Lake Worth team is heavy and has practically the same group as last year. "This has always been a hotly contested game," the mentor added. The only comparative that can be used is through the Miami Beach game. Both Ponce and Lake Worth held the Tycheroes scoreless, but Ponce scored one more touchdown than did Lake Worth. Cavalier starting lineup will, as usual, be both a surprise and a puzzle. The coaches are still experimenting to find a line good enough to stop as strong a bunch as Lake Worth is using. Mr. McLendon expressed the opinion that we'll need a backingly more flexible line today than we had in the Miami Beach game in order to pounce on Lake Worth. You can expect to see several new boys break into the lineup.
Ponce Notes
The Ponce Cavaliers last week honored one of their outstanding backs as they elected Bill Shane to the position of co-captain to succeed the ineligible Leroy Westberry. In Shane they selected a boy who has been known to play good, clean, heads up football. Bill is playing his third year on the Cavalier eleven and has made excellent showings against every foe so far this year; he has earned letters for both previous years. Five former students now in the Army and Navy visited Ponce recently. Among them were Corporal Buster Young of Camp Blanding; O. L. Carter, Platoon No. 232, Norfolk; Ralph Boartfield, Army Air Base, Orlando; Keith Phillips and Kenny Stockman are on leave at the present time. Chosen to lead the senior class this year are Phillip Dorn, president; John Kelly, vice-president; Lillian Gregory, secretary; and Bobby Ayers, treasurer. Food takes its rightful place in the annals of art with the beauty of carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals well illustrated in the prize-winning posters above, conceived and drawn by Barbara Kipp, Phyllis Blakely and Nancy Gramley, reading from left to right. The 1941 national Book Week theme is "Forward With Books", and at Ponce de Leon this theme will be carried out during the week of November 2 as a period of special observance of all the good things that books bring to each individual, with emphasis on books for better citizenship. With the country dominated by national defense, the home economics department has started a program of vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, proteins, and the important part they play in defense. A poster contest to illustrate the same was won by Nancy Gramley, Phyllis Blakely and Barbara Kipp. Preparations are being made on a dark room for the Camera Club which has long been trying to find a place where its members could develop their pictures and carry on research work. The new dark room will be in the former chemistry storeroom back of the chemistry laboratory. Tentative plans for a South Sea Island dance, the first of its kind ever to be sponsored at Ponce, highlighted the first meeting of the National Honor Society held Tuesday, Oct. 21. Further arrangements for this dance to be held Dec. 12 will be made at this afternoon's meeting.
UNCLE SAM'S SAILORS ON HORSEBACK SEE PANAMA FROM THE SADDLE
No, the U. S. Navy doesn't have a cavalry unit, but many a sailor straddled leather before giving up his bucking broncho or plow horse for the bounding main. The sailors in whites above are seamen in the U. S. Naval Reserve on shore leave in Panama. No distinction is made between sailors in the Naval Reserve and those in the regular Navy. Enlistment in the U. S. Naval Reserve is for four years, but all men enlisting in the Naval Reserve will be released to inactive duty as soon after the national emergency as their services can be spared, regardless of the length of time remaining in their enlistment. If the emergency ends within a period of several months, those enrolled in the Naval Reserve will not be required to complete their 4 year term in active service. Opportunities for advancement, to learn skilled trades, for travel and adventure are identical whether a man enlists in the regular Navy or the Naval Reserve, and his pay, food, clothing, medical and dental care are the same.
Employers Asked To List Needs For Manpower
All employers in Florida, especially those who have pressing need for additional help, should immediately list their employment needs with their nearest State Employment Office to facilitate the proper placing of Florida men who are being relieved from active military duty, Brigadier General Vivian Collins, State Director of Selective Service, said today. "All types of unemployed Florida ex-service men, or those who desire new jobs, are referred by Selective Service local board reemployment committeemen to the State Employment Office," he said. "This facilitates cooperation with employers to make intelligent distribution o fthis additional manpower for National Defense production. The first and important obligation of the employer, however, is that he advise his nearest State Employment Office as to his employment needs." Jobless In First Place General pointed out that while the law makes it mandatory for an employer to restore a returning soldier to his former position, or a position of like seniority, status and pay, many men who are completing terms of service in the Regular Army, Navy and Marine Corps, as well as selectees, were unemployed when they began their military service. To expedite the proper placing of these men, he said, the Selective Service Reemployment program has been amplified by arrangements to establish "referral offices" in Army camps to interview men whose records indicate they might be useful in the priorities divisions of National Defense production and to so classify them before their return home. Under the general reemployment program of the Selective Service System all members of the armed forces when about to be relieved of active duty are filling out Selective Service Form D.S.S. 128, giving details concerning their civilian occupations, aptitudes, experience and desires. These forms will be culled at the referral offices in the camps before being sent to National Selective Service Headquarters and thence to local boards and to State Employment Offices. Will Select Men The referral offices will select those men meeting requirements set forth by the Labor Division of the Office of Production Management, for which the U. S. Employment Service Division also is the official agency in the matter of personnel procurement. They will be questioned as to their skills and concerning possible employment in the War or Navy Department mechanical plants, or in the factories of priorities divisions of National Defense production such as aircraft, ship-building, etc. "In returning Florida soldiers, General Collins said, are instructed to get in touch with their local board reemployment Committeemen as soon as they reach their homes. In the meantime, the committeemen will have received complete data concerning each man—his special occupational skill or aptitude, training and experience, and his military record. This information also is sent to the State Employment Office, which will cooperate with the local board reemployment committeemen and Florida employers to see that each man is placed in the job for which he is best fitted and most needed.

Florida's Forest Future Is Bright
Florida's forest future is a bright one. A long growing season, abundant moisture, and a variety of desired hardwood and softwood species give the State an enviable position among our neighbors. Sawmill operators, pulp men, turpentine operators, and landowners are abandoning the "cut-and-get-out" method of a few years back and are planting and protecting the woodlands for future use with the assistance of the Florida Forest and Park Service aided by Federal funds. Florida's productive forest land totals 22 million acres, about 78 per cent being pine, 15 per cent hardwood, and 7 per cent cypress. About 13 million acres, or 60 per cent, is classed as second growth ranging in size from saplings to small saw logs. The present timber stand is approximately 23 billion board feet as measured by the International rule; this takes into account pine and cypress having a diameter of 9 inches or larger at breast height, and hardwoods measuring 13 inches. In terms of pulpwood, the volume is computed to be 116 million standard cords, trees over 5 inches in diameter in all pulping species being considered. The Southern Forest Survey of 1934-35 revealed that 36 million longleaf or slash pine trees were being worked for turpentine, 56 million were resting or had been worked, and 700 million unworked trees ranging fro mone inch in diameter to turpentine size (9 inches) assure a future for the industry. In 1934, Florida's forest reserves were supporting 910 woodusing establishments and accounting for 7,230,000 man-days' employment. This figure is the equivalent of the full time employment of 36,000 people.
