JGP Publishes
Total Bonds,
Stamps Sold
Sorority, Dormitory, League
House Juniors Net $17,000
From Booths, Skits, Dances
The results of the sale of war
stamps and bonds by the junior wom-
en last semester totaled approxi-
mately $17,000, plus a $7,000 bond
purchased by WAA, it was announced
yesterday by Marcia Zimmerman, '44,
chairman of the project.
Sororities contributed $8,155 to this
amount, women's dormitories $3,300,
and league houses $600. Collegiate
Sorosis led all other houses with a
total of $6,000 worth of stamps and
bonds taken by them.
Alpha Gamma Delta placed second
among the sororities with a total of
$375, while Delta Delta Delta's pur-
chase amounting to $200 gave them
third place. Houses failing to turn
in the serial numbers of the bonds
they purchased were not given credit
for them.
Thirteen junior women made up
the central committee for this proj-
ect and approximately 135 coeds
worked under them. Their work
started early in the fall and continued
until finals.
Defense stamp corsages made by
the corsage committee were sold at
football games, concerts, and dormi-
tory dances. Booths were set up in
the library, University Hall, and the
League, and stamps were sold from
10 a.m. to 5 p.m.-five days a week.
Twenty junior women made up the
skit and dance committee which per-
formed before the Eagles' Club and
sold a total of $3,500 worth of bonds
and stamps. In addition to singing
and dancing, a skit was given which
depicted bombing of Pearl Harbor.
This work will be continued again
this semester and junior women are
urged by the central committee to
watch The Daily for an announce-
ment of a mass meeting which will
be held in the near future.
All persons interested in taking
part in League activities can have
their eligibility cards signed from
3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. every day
this week and next week in the
League.

Daily Creates
'Rosie Riveter'
From Charlotte
By BETTY WOODWARD
"Rosie, the Riveter," has revealed
the fact that an article in The Daily
was responsible for her application
for work in a local war plant, along
with those other patriotic coeds who
are now doing semi-skilled defense
work for the King Seely Corporation.
This particular "Rosie" is Charlotte
Papernick, '44Ed, who is working the
4:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. swing shift in
this local defense plant. She began,
"The work is hard, but it's lots of
fun." Of the forty coeds at the plant,
twenty work together in a group
which includes Peg Bartley, '43, Lil-
lian Bates, '44Ed, and Miss Papernick.
"We usually walk down to the plant
together," said Miss Papernick, "it
only takes about 20 minutes. Our shift
really starts at 4:40 p.m., and, al-
though we haven't received our first
ceck yet, we are getting very good
pay for part-time work."
When asked if she found it hard
to keep up her school work and spend
four hours a day in the factory, Miss
Papernick replied, "I haven't had any
trouble as yet, but school has just
started. However, I don't think it will
be too hard; it's really just a case of
learning to use every minute wisely.
Several of the girls are carrying extra
heavy programs, with lab courses and
everything."
Woman Is in Charge
Of N. Y. Manpower
Anna Marie Rosenberg is director
of manpower in New York State; a
woman is in charge of the employ-
ment and labor life of 2,800 persons.
Anna, a small brunette who loves
to wisecrack, has enormous power.
She decides how many women shall
take what kind of training, where
they shall take it, and when. She fits
workers into their places in the great
puzzle of war industry with the assur-
ance and accuracy of a veteran.

WASHINGTON- (P)- To the vot-
ers of Fairfield County, Conn.:
Your Congresswoman, Clare Boothe
Luce, had another big day in Wash-
ington. She:
1) Got into a debate in the House
and heard herself accused of imper-
ialism.
2) Testified in behalf of Lend-
Lease.
3) Got a rise out of the White
House.
J. William Fulbright, a Democrat
who at 37 has been president of the
University of Arkansas and holds four
college degrees, touched off the de-
bate. He ripped into Republican Mrs.
Luce's freshman speech of last week,
when she said the United States must
Eastern, Central
War Times Battle
In County OfficeI
Mrs. Luella M. Smith is in a most
receptive mood for the donation of a
clock for her county clerk's office.
That would give her two clocks-
one labeled "court time" and giving
the hour in Eastern War Time; and
the other with a placard reading
"clerk's time" and giving the hour in
Central War Time.
The trouble is that Mrs. Smith
serves the county in two capacities,
and must operate on a different time
for each.
As county clerk she is on "slow"
time. As clerk to the circuit court she
is on "fast" time.
That's because Prosecutor George
Meader has ruled that Washtenaw
county and the county offices must!
operate on Central War Time, but
Judge George W. Sample is continu-
ing to hold court on Ann Arbor's East-
ern War Time.
As a. result, Mrs. Smith's office1
opens at 8:30 "fast" time and closes
at 5 o'clock "slow" time, or 6 o'clock
Ann Arbor time. That makes a nine
and a half-hour day, an hour more
than before time became so involved.

give immediate attention to post-war
aviation, with emphasis on what Brit-
ain is doing about it and what we
should start doing.
The First Round
Fulbright said Mrs. Luce advocated
a "narrow, imperialistic policy of
grab" which would be "probably the
most effective method imaginable of
bringing on a third World War."
Rep. Luce tried twice to interrupt,
but the gentleman from Arkansas
wouldn't yield, as they say in Con-
gress. When he had concluded his re-
marks, he and the gentlewoman from
Connecticut manned twin micro-
phones.
Inference vs. Implication
Mrs. Luce: The young and very,
able gentleman from Arkansas (Mrs.
Luce is two years his senior) has spok-
en rather loosely of what he called
my freedom of the air policy. By his
definition of what he calls a proper
policy, does he intend for this country
to control its own skies and airports
after the war?
Fulbright: I would say not any
more than we now control our ports
r:nder the traditional policy of free-
don of the seas.
Mrs. Luce: I would like to ask the
gentleman another question. In his
speech he said I "inferred" this- or
that. I inferred nothing. I implied,
and the gentleman from Arkansas did
ithe inferring. I ask the gentleman to
give a precise passage, a precise quote
from the text of my speech in Which
