The slide rule you would ordinarily buy thi Urm will not
b roady for four months. Sorry, it can't bo helped ... It
has to do with defense. Tanks, guns, airplanes, all begin
with mathematics and mathematics means slid rules.
Although we have multiplied our production, the Defense
Program still absorbs rules slightly faster than we can make
them now. But we are still increasing production. Within
four months we are sure we can take care of everyone . . .
Bxs&'&dll Isxdpszi c2$2er
Meanwhile, you are not forgotten. We have in produc
tion a quantity of special slide rules that will tide you over
until your standard rules are ready. These rules are not
for sale. We will lend you one upon the deposit f $I.OO
and give you a full trade-in allowance when your stand
ard rule is ready. No charge for wear and tear. Use this
rule with our compliments as long as the temporary emer
gency lasts! Your campus bookstore has K&E "loaned-on-deposil"
slide rules in stock for immediate delivery.

Lincom journal opinion of many
writers, this one included, that the
Viscount was not giving every
thing he could when he was out
on the field in the earlier contests
this fall. ... He seemed to be
coasting and then came the trou
ble with the books and it appeared
that his football career had ended.
. But he had to make good as
is now evident.
Looking Into the Future
The big fullback had to show
that he could hit the comeback
trail and his first hurdle was the
scholastic one. . . . Instead of quit
ting in the middle of the stream
as many would have done in the
same circumstances he looked far
enough ahead to see that his only
way was to be eligible for the
final games.
A Comeback
The comeback that he made was
good enough to warrant him a
vote ?n the Associated Press poll
for the comeback athlete of the
year. ... He was drafted by the
Brooklyn Dodgers at the end of
the grid season and he had ac
complished one of the goals that
he had set for himself. . . . After
his showing in the East-West all
star tilt last Thursday, Jock Suth
erland showed that he was favor
ably impressed. . . . Jock is the
Dodger coach.
