Residents are in for some unnecessary suffering unless 80 men sign up to handle coal, it was announced by the Placement Bureau today.

With cold weather fast approaching, an urgent call is being made to all able-bodied men who are unemployed to relieve this present emergency.

Clothes, gloves and other necessary equipment will be supplied, the Bureau added.

Two branch offices of the Placement Bureau will be opened in a day or two it was revealed by Frank D. Fagan, director of employment, today.

Rental agents for Japanese evacuees must register under the new federal rent-control act by Aug. 15, 1942, it was announced today by Evan Haynes, regional rent director.

If you have rentable property, rented or offered for rent in one of the defense-rental areas, it must be registered either by you or your agent. If you have an agent, be certain he has filed your property. If you personally are handling the renting of your own property, it will be necessary for you to obtain and fill out the regular registration form.

You can obtain registration forms by applying to the Legal Aid office in #1908.

The rent law coves all types of dwelling units, but not commercial, structures unless any portion is used for dwelling accommodation, nor does it include farm lands or any dwelling thereon which are customarily used in the farm operations. If, however, a structure exists on a farm and it, or any part of it, is rented solely for purposes of residence, it must be so registered.

Through the generosity of Modoc Union high school, wood-working tools and machinery have been made available for use to the people of Tule Lake. Among the tools which have been let are band saw, table saw, jointer planer, double-power grinder, two lathes, and 20 framing clamps, besides a sundry of hand tools. Nails, sandpaper, glue, and lumber (when available) have been liberally given absolutely free to woodworkers.

Under the guidance of D.G. Reid, shop instructor from Modoc Union High School, the shop located at #1508 has already been the outlet to the whims of more than a thousand enthusiasts. Cabinets, drawers, desks, chairs, and the all-popular "geta" (500 pairs) have taken form in the shop. One young lady-typist who had never even carved a tooth pick, undertook the task of building a vanity seat for her dresser. "And she did a pretty, nice job, too," chuckled Reid.

Anyone over 16 years of age, man or woman is welcome to use the power tools. Though many youngsters come to whittle away the hours, they are not allowed to use electrical equipment. The shop is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and again from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.

Several hand tools have been missing from the shop. These missing tools should be returned or must be replaced.

Tables of various Project offices have been stolen. Proj. Director E.L. Shirrell admonished that a severe penalty will be inflicted on all persons continuing such practice.

The third in the series of a community forums will take place tonight from 7:30 p.m. at the outdoor platform. "Should High School Curriculum Here Emphasize Vocational Training?" will be the topic with Harry Mayeda as moderator.

In view of the uncertainties of our future, would vocational training be most practical? Should the curriculum emphasize general knowledge?

What should be the policy of the high school? Attend and participate in the forum tonight.

Mary Bonnack, here from San Francisco to supervise over the census, will be the outside speaker. Superintendent of Schools Harkness and the Reverend Daisuke Kitagawa will be the other two speakers. Questions from the audience will be answered by the speakers. E.O.

Candidates for the U.S. Army at Savage, Minn., will be interviewed beginning today by Walter Tsukamoto at #1908.

I. The following qualifications are to be considered in selecting those eligible:

1. Candidates must be eligible for the draft.

2. Candidates should preferably possess the following qualifications:

a. High school graduates from American high schools.

b. Possess a fair degree of fluency in oral Japanese.

c. Should be capable of reading elementary Japanese, i.e. at least Katakana and Hiragana as well as not less than 500 - 1000 Kanji. They should preferably be able to read Japanese newspapers.

II. From candidates whose qualifications come within those indicated above, it is desired that the following information be elicited:

1. Name; 2. age; 3. profession; 4. religion; 5. schooling - English and Japanese; 6. has he been to Japan?; 7. status of parents and relatives - former, present, sisters and brothers; 8. are close relatives living in Japan? - in army, in other government work; 9. former military training in Japan? - Chugakko Kyoren, and other.

There is a persistent talk about preserving the citizenship status of the Japanese-Americans while we are relocated in a colony like this.

There is a greater persistency among opportunistic politicians outside to wrest that constitutional right of the nisei.

We believe in the intelligent public opinion of the American people to take care of these ill-advised opportunists. Perhaps it is naive for us to think that way, but our faith in American sense of fair-play and good taste has not been shaken as yet.

However, we must never lose a single opportunity on our part to preserve and protect this right to vote and everything that is implied in that right.

The case in point is our privilege to cast absentee ballots. War Relocation Authority in Tule Lake is offering its facilities to make applications for these ballots easier. Blanks may be obtained from the Legal Aid department at #1909.

We urge you to avail yourself of this opportunity today so that you will be doing your bit to protect the constitutional right of the Japanese-Americans. It is your duty -- a duty you owe to yourself and to your children who wish to leave in an America untainted with racial prejudice. H.M.I.

As morale builders, Tak Ota and his Royal Hawaiians are tops. The band comprised of six men of notes and a miss made their debut last week and made an immediate hit with their public.

Since then, the Royal Hawaiians have appeared at the Bussei Festival and the Rotarian dinner. At each engagement, the Island boys stopped the show.

* * * * *

Members of the orchestra met at Walerga, but they didn't get organized until they came to Tule Lake. The orchestra is composed of Tak Ota, steel guitar; Joe Fujioka, piano; Mickey Tanaka, clarinet; Shig Matsunaga, guitar; Mike Kuwahara, uke; Mike Kiyo, guitar and Fumi Sugimura, uke.

* * * * *

Maestro Tak Ota is rated one of the best steel guitar men in the business. During the last decade, Ota has played with numerous orchestras on the Pacific Coast. His most recent engagement was at the Vagabond night club in Los Angeles.

Joe Fujioka is an accomplished pianist and was a member of Seattleite Koichi Hayashi's all-nisei swing band on their California tour last year.

Five of the seven hail from the Islands. Two Royal Hawaiians, Mickey Tanaka and Fumi Sugimura, call Sacramento their homes.

Ota's crew is a smooth-working aggregation, equally at home with the "sweet" or the "hot". They have the juke boxes beat a mile, dance lovers claim.

Tuleans are looking forward to hearing more of the Royal Hawaiians' soothing music. They know a good thing when they hear it.

Bank officials at Tule Lake expressed their appreciation for response made to the appeal for transfer or deposits from other banks to accounts here.

These changes were directly responsible for the bank's latest policy of keeping their doors open three days weekly instead of two days.

Further advantages of the Transfers are that one can draw checks and have immediate access to cash in the event of an emergency.

All these factors were pointed out as great tire savers in addition to giving the local bank business which in turn would aid the community from a convenient standpoint.

Registration of pupils for the fall tem of schools resulted in 3225 enrollment for high school and 1509 for elementary school.

To accommodate the enrollees, all barracks in Block 66 and two in 72 have been set aside as temporary schools.

Already 41 nisei with college degrees have filed applications for teaching positions, and many more are expected to enlist.

Boys who desire vocational training will have excellent opportunity to do so. "Most of the students who take shop and mechanics, will receive practical training under actual shop-repair conditions," stated Paul Fleming, supervisor of Community Enterprises.

I wish to express appreciation of the feeling of the people within the project towards me in the past few days with regard to my resignation.

Owing to circumstance and public feeling, I feel it is my duty to stay on the project and do everything within my power to make this the best project in the United States.

Salem Senators thoroughly eliminated the Isleton Cowboys from the American League softball race by running up a basketball-like 37-10 score Sunday.

Sixteen runs in the last half of the first inning gave Salem a 16-2 lead and they maintained a speedy merry-go-round scoring clip for the rest of the game.

Cowboys definitely suffered an off day since errors and walks were responsible for a good share of the runs.

Royal Flushes had a tougher time than they anticipated in polishing off the 1400 ton 5 to 1.

Flushes knocked out four bingles to the losers one.

Royal Flushes won a tight 3 to 0 pitching battle over Placer Friday to keep undefeated in the National League.

Both pitchers hurled a four hit game but the Flushes bunched two in the fourth inning and scored all three runs.

In the last half of the sixth Placer had one man on with no outs by two strike-outs and a ground ball retired the side.

Winning chucker Murata of the Hub City ten hold the "wrecks" runless until the fifth, sixth and the seventh when they tallied the total of 6 runs.

Yesterday's hardball games witnessed the fall of the undefeated Violets who were upset by the underdog Hillman nine, and the nosing out of the Imais by the White River boys.

Sloppy base running and needless errors accounted for the 10-4 victory by the Hillmans. Although holding the White Riverites to a 2 all tie till the 6th inning, the Imais muffed their chance for a win by three heart breaking errors to permit 3 runs to cross the plate. The final score was 583.

Tule Lake's hitless wonders, the Ubanigs again contributed to the loss column when they were unceremoniously dumped by the Arbogans 5-2.
