OUR EXCLUSIVE LINES
COLLEGE STATION, TEXAS
From the office of Dr. C. C.
Hedges, director of civilian defense
in the College Station area a list
of instructions has been released
for the use of air raid wardens in
training those in their areas in
the necessary precautions to be
taken in all possible cases of
danger. These included air raids
without warning, air radis with
warning and general instructions
for use during blackouts and spe
cial bomb controls.
IN CASE OF AIR RAID
WITHOUT WARNING
Keep calm.
If at home, turn off all lights
immediately and stay inside.
If in a car, stop immediately at
curb being sure not to block any
driveway or fire plug; if at night
tum off motor and car lights; seek
nearest shelter one floor above
ground or lie down flat in the
open.
If on the street, seek nearest
shelter one floor above ground, or
lie down flat in the open.
In case of daylight attack, stay
inside, do not rush to help with
children at school or elsewhere.
Provision has been made to take
care of the children at school. Do
not use the phone.
IN CASE OF AIR RAID
WITH WARNING
Head for home if you can get
there within five minutes easily,
safely and without undue rush.
Otherwise stop car at curb, turn
off lights and seek shelter. All
traffic, whether on highways or
within the city will be stopped
after five minutes.
Don’t use the phone, lines must
be kept clear for emergencies.
Detail the various members of
the family to their different du
ties.
Prepare blackout room that has
been chosen for that purpose.
Do not turn off main light
switch, gas cutoff or pilot lights.
In case of fire or incendiaries
out of control, always follow your
warden’s instructions. Help will be
on the way.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Appoint one member of the fam
ily to be chief of operations.
Mother is usually the most re
liable. Detail the various members
of the family to perform specific
duties when the emergency comes.
This will save time and confus
ion.
Reasons for a blackout room,
rather than turning off lights.
(a) It is for the protection of
you and your family.
(b) Remember that an air raid
may last for some time.
(c) It affords greater protec
tion against flying glass
from shattered windows.
(d) It provides for better mo
rale. A family together less
ens fear, makes for greater
comfort, and avoids any sep
aration or loss of the differ
ent members in case of em
ergency.
The blackout room should be
the one with the least window
space (and some comfort). The
dining room may prove to be the
most favorable.
Blackout material and its place
ment. Do not go to any unneces
sary expense, but use any ma
terial that provides the safety that
you desire for your family.
Do not use the phone. The lines
must be kept clear for emergency
calls.
Do not leave your home and go
driving around in search of chil
dren or members of the family.
The roads must be kept clear for
emergency vehicles. A greater loss
of lives may be sustained from
automobile accidents than from
falling bombs.
Turn off all lights, including
porch lights, when leaving home
at night. This will avoid all un
necessary damage to your pro
perty by the warden, in case of
an air raid.
* Avoid burning trash, or having
any outside fires at night. Do not
smoke during air raids, except in
your blackout room.
Clean up your attics and trash
pilete, including dead grass. Pro
vision has been made to have all
trash collected and vacant lots
cleared off.
Provision has been made for the
delivery of sand to each home.
Keep this sand dry and provide
metal recepticles for its delivery
to you and its later use.

A Revolutionary New Principle in
Modern Tractor Farming
Your eyes will pop wide open when you see the FORD
TRACTOR with FERGUSON SYSTEM in action. You
won’t believe that any one tractor can do all the
things this tractor actually does until you see it per
form. It puts to shame and out-maneuvers old-style
tractors half again as big—brings a new era of prof
itable farming, at surprisingly low cost.

stopped to determine the cause of
and excitement and Lynn’s com
panion jumped out of the car leav
ing the door open and Neiwah
took advantage of the opportunity
to escape.
He was caught after a long
chase by throwing a coat over
him.
Because these lizards are rare,
he is valuable. Lynn, has been of
fered a boa constrictor in exchange
for him but has not traded as yet.
When asked what he wanted with a
boa, Lynn replied that they made
very good pets and are nice to
have around.

ball on the reserve 36 yard line,
and in four consecutive plays Wild
Willie Zapalac smashed his way
over for a touchdown.
Outstanding in the line for the
regulars were Truman Cox, an
end who is due to see plenty of
service next fall, and Slats Holder
who played the entire game at
center, Bill Sibley having been
forced out due to a cold.
Coach Norton’s main problem in
spring training has been to find
capable replacements in the line,
and to develop a strong ground at
tack to couple with the potent Ag
gie aerials. However, from the
looks of things the past three Sat
urdays, next fall the oft repeated
cry of the past three seasons will
once again ring out across the
gridirons of the Southwest, “Stop
those Aggies.”
