It'll be the luckiest team that will win.

I don't care how good they are, it is the team that gets the breaks that wins. men for military service, but they must deal with individuals, not with groups. No registrant may claim deferred classification because of the simple fact that he is married. The fact that a man is unemployed or that he is employed has nothing to do with his liability for service. Certifying a man for service just because he had no job would be grounds for appeal by the registrant.

It would be manifestly unfair to jobless registrants to compel them to face the dangers and deprivations of war because they have no jobs and exempt from this sacrifice men fortunate enough to have jobs. The Selective Service and Training act provides that it shall apply impartially to the employed and to the unemployed and local boards will probably be warned not to yield to possible temptation to favor unemployed registrants called before them. WALTER C. MAYER, manager of the Flint office of the social security board, will be in room 301 of the postoffice building Wednesday from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m., and Thursday from noon to 1 p.m., to accept applications for account numbers and claims, and to answer questions about the social security act.

With war desolating thousands of their brethren throughout the world, Jews of Port Huron will join all Israel at sunset Wednesday in welcoming Rosh Hashana, the Jewish religious New Year. As a holy day, concerned primarily with the life of the individual, Rosh Hashana, eve of the first day of Tishri, the seventh month of the Jewish calendar, brings with its message of eternal values new courage to persecuted people and new strength to those called upon to aid their fellow men.

Traditional services in celebration of Rosh Hashana, "the beginning of the year" and the first of the Ten Days of Penitence, will be conducted Wednesday evening in Mt. Sinai synagogue, 903 Court street, by Rabbi Louis H. Schechter, former rabbi of the congregations B'nai Israel and Tiphereth Israel, of Detroit. Rabbi Schechter will also conduct services Thursday morning and evening and Friday morning and evening in the synagogue. A graduate of the Cleveland Hebrew Seminary of America, Rabbi Schechter attended the famous theological seminary of Presburg, in what was formerly Czechoslovakia, and the Hebrew Theological college of Chicago.

He also served as religious educational field director for the Mizrachi Youth Organization of America. The services at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday will mark the beginning of the year 5701 of the Hebrew calendar. The Ten Days of Penitence present to Jews an invitation to all men to judge themselves as they are being judged by God. The season's climax is reached on Yom Kippur, the Day ol Atonement, Oct.

The shower head was designed by R. L. Comb, of the Mueller Brass company, and H.

A. Husted, Detroit, of the Thermo-Plastics division, Standard Products, which molded the shower head of Tenite 11. The manufacturers claim that the shower head overcomes some objections to other shower sprays, because the direction of the water can be accurately controlled. It is claimed that the spray can be kept within the confines of the bathtub or shower stall, thus eliminating wet and slippery bathroom floors. In the center of the head is a screw which may be turned to remove a disc and ring from the head, making it easy to clean.

The shower head is available in 18 colors to match bathroom fixtures. It is designed to fit existing supply lines. James A. Brown, 1227 Water street: I think Detroit will win because it has the best team. The Tigers have more fight than Cincinnati, better pitchers and better hitters.
