Recapped Passenger Tires
following- memorandum has
iff received by the local Ration
ing Board from the State Ra
tioning Office:
“Since the newspaper story un
der a Washington headline that
appeared on October 1st with ref
erence to increased quotas of re
capped passenger tires, this office
as well as the local boards, has
been literally swamped with in
quiries and applications. Unfor
tunately many people have gained
the impression that everyone is
now able to obtain recapped tires.
“The increased allotment was in
tended to assist the Boards to
take care of some of the surplus
eligible applications now on file.
There has been no change what
soever in the eligibility of any in
dividual to qualify for recaps.”
COMMUNICATIONS
Dear Mr. Vining:
Well from the articles in The
Bulletin some people are still left
in school there. I always look
forward to seeing how the foot
ball games come out. I sure do
wish I was there playing with
the boys.
The Bulletin is a big hit here
and my room always has a crowd
of boys in it reading my old
Bulletins. I have saved them all
for reference about other class
mates and schoolmates who have
gone away like myself.
I can say I am the only boy
here who gets a daily paper. It is
always in my box and I appre
ciate your prompt service in get
ting it out to me.
The weather here has been very
pleasant and enjoyable. We have
n’t had but three rainy days in
a month.
Hope every one in Tryon is
feeling fine.
