MINUTE TOPICS Saturday afternoon, Arthur

Rugg, well known lumberman, en­tered Johnny's Barber Shop with the remark, "Well, it looks like the end of the Japs."

"What's happened now?" asked Johnny while everyone pricked up their ears.

"I've just registered for the draft." replied Rugg simply.

We thank Leon Roberta for has generous praise of Minute Topics. The respect is mutual. Actually, we agree with him that the pres­ent parking meter charges "are not unfair." But wouldn't the non-profit Syracuse plan of 45 minutes for a penny be even more fair? Regulating parking beauti­fully, might it not prove a stellar attraction for more leisurely and productive downtown shopping?

Friends of Gordon Taylor win be pleased to know that Henry Granger has just heard from him announcing his appointment as a Lieutenant (j.g.) in the United States Naval Reserve. Gordon makes the third Chautauqua Lake Yacht Club sailor on active duty as a commissioned officer in the Navy. Doug Howard and Dr. Clyde Wilson are both Lieuten­ant-Commanders. In addition to this about 25 men out of a mem­bership of 100 are serving in the armed forces. | . M . R .
