Await Pipeline
300,000 Barrels Per Day
To Start Flowing In '43
WASHINGTON, Oct. 28.- ())- At
the rate of 300,000 barrels a day, oil
to lubricate the Allied war machine
and take some of the squeaks out of
eastern transportation troubles will
start flowing out of swelling south-
western stores through the world's
largest pipeline next June 1, federal
odficials announced today.
First link of the underground lubri-
cation line-- a 530-mile leg from
Longview, Texas, to Norris City, Ill.-
will be completed this December, and
for the next five months the oil will
be trans-shipped on eastward by
train, barge and truck.
But assurance that the final 857-
mile link would be completed came
today when Chairman Donald M. Nel-
son of the War Production Board said
that 224,000 tons of steel would be
allocated for the extension.
Petroleum coordinator Harold L.
Ickes said the line would be laid from
Norris City across Indiana and Ohio
to Phoenixville, Pa., -from where
branch lines will be laid to the Phila-
delphia area.
Icrap Scavengers
Scultle Old Piano'
Culture took a wartime blow yes-
terday in the ruthless hands of
sledge-hammer wielding Michigan
Daily scrap hunters as they way-
laid a historic grand piano at Hill
Auditorium.
The four Daily scribes, assigned
to the task of destroying this ex-
quisite percussion piece, chopped
and pounded and sweated over
what they termed was the "tough-
est set of Ivory they ever lit into."
Some norosity, however, did en-
ter the workers' minds as they sent
chips of mahogany hurtling into
the ai. An auditorium attendant
had calmly remarked, "Do you boys
realize that this very piano has
been played by Rachmaninoff?"
Passersby stopped and also
seemed aghast if for no other rea-
.'son than the sight of persons vehe-
mently wrecking and readying this
:musical ware -for the scrap heap.
'The piano yielded at least 20
pounds of valuable cast iron.:

The British Eighth Army, supported by the Allied air arm, broke f'urther inside the Axis desert positions
as the newest Allied offensive continued. Allied airme n caught an enemy-escorted convoy trying to slip along
the coast from Derna to Tobruk and two ships carrying supplies to the desert front blew up under bomb and
torpedo hits. RAE' fighters attacked a truck convoy near Sidi Barrani (1) and believed they damaged it be-
yond repair.

October Garg
Wil Present,
Football Facts
Ceithal Will 'Reveal All';
Crowd Reaction Shown
In Record Size Issue
Pessimists may think football is on
the wane during war-time, but the
October Gargoyle, appearing on cam-
pus tomorrow, will give it a new boost.
Captain George Ceithaml's 'behind
the scenes article'-"Inside Football,"
will set the gridiron theme of the big-
gest issue of the Gargoyle ever pub-
lished.
Ceithaml's feature reveals facts
about football which the general pub-
lic knows little about. He puts in a
plea for the scrubs and describes the
night - before - the - game parties at
Barton Hills when even Line Coach
Biggie Munn joins in the amateur
show.
"A football player might remember
a good mark he once received in
Chem. 3," says Ceithaml, in talking of
team friendships, "but he will never
forget the, tine so-and-so blocked the
pants off him in practice, or hit cen-
ter for five yards and that last minute
touchdown."
From its focus on the team itself
the Garg camera turns to the specta-
tors. Three pages of photos show
grandstand reactions and how the
fellow behind the goalposts sees the
sport. For the girls, there is fashion
news-what to wear at the game and
at the parties afterward.
In addition to these new features,
Garg readers will find many of the
old ones. back. Campus Talk, a column
by Wormsley, books and drama re-
views will all- be a part of this month's
issue. Editor Olga Gruzhit, '43, prom-
ises lots of photos and cartoons
throughout the magazine.
The Garg goes on sale tomorrow for
20 cents each, and will be available
at the center of the diagonal, .the
front of the Union, the engineering
arch, the romance language building
and University Hall.
Yearly subscriptions are still avail-
able at the Garg office in the Student
Publications Building.
