ASTRONOMY NOTES
By OLAF HALVERSON
Because Mars is closer to the
earth this year than it has been
Since 1924, 32 years ago, everyone
should make an effort to locate
this planet. In the early evening
hours at seven or eight o’clock it
is in the southeastern sky. Later
in the evening, at ten or eleven, it
is in the southern sky and just i
below the constellation called the
Square of Pegasus. Mars is in di-1
rect line with the first two stars
of the "square” and at a distance
below it equal to one side of the
constellation.
The canals on Mars do not be
gin to appear until the snows start
to melt and they are always in
the same position each season.
The land is then moistened with
water. This process starts near or
around the melting polar caps
and gradually moves down to
ward the equator. This water re
quires about 55 days to reach the
equator, vegetation springing up
along the way.

growing closer together, tho our
climates are poles apart. The
heartwarming sun that glows on
Yuma shines here, too, and none
theless fervent, we are sure, is
our mutual desire for peace . .

Quality, Not Quantity,
Is Watchword of Army
Enlistment Program
SEATTLE:—Quality, not quan
tity, is the watchword in the U.S.
Army enlistment program, re
cruiting officials said here recent
ly
In emphasizing this point the
Army has heartily endorsed a
recent resolution of the American
Bar Assn, protesting the practice
of certain judicial officers of giv
ing convicted miscreants the al
ternative of enlisting in the
armed forces to escape prosecu
tion or imprisonment for civil
crimes.
In line with this resolution, the*
Army is changing its enlistment
regulations to further pinpoint
the demarkation between the eli
gibility of youths to wear the hon
ored uniform of the military ser
vice and those who are not en
titled to enlist.
The Army does not consider the
youthful offender or juvenile de
linquent a criminal, however, and
has definiately opened the way
for boys who have “been in
trouble.”
