Well, don‘t, advises McDonald White in the Rotarian Magazine. "It is a big businessâ€"and, with wars on, a boomâ€" ing one," he says. "In the United States, for example, it is in the bilâ€" lionâ€"dollar class and still growing. Industrial miracles that shame Aladâ€" din‘s lamp are recreating from the junk pile useful things in an amazing variety. In fact, almost everything one buys nowadays is partly made from waste materials. "War always booms the junk business. During the 1914â€"18 affair, scrap iron leaped from $4 to $42 a ton. History seems about to repeat itself, for already the price is climbing. If it continues, high steel prices may slow down construction work and production of both capital and conâ€" sumer goods for years to come.

The final match on the card introâ€" duces Al Swenski, claimant to the junior heavyweight championship of America, to local fans for the first time. Swenski has everything, say the nation‘s sports writers, so Lake county folks will have a chance to see for themselves. He meets Al "Whitey" Williams, tatooed roughâ€" ster from Fox Lake, IIl.
