Platt School Children Haul A Car Body For Scrap Drive, October 1942 Photographer: Eck Stanger

Ignominy is no longer the fate of old, worn-out automobiles and the Platt school children, shown above toting an ancient car body on their small express wagon, are proving the point by getting the scrapped machine to the pile whence it will be transported to the smelters, remoulded into vital war machinery and dispatched on its last journey to the war-torn corners of the world. Platt pupils shown bringing in the car (they've already brought in a great deal of other scrap material) are, left to right, Ralph Terry, Ronald Daugherty, Frank Michelfelder, Eleanor Daugherty, Guy Blachman and Donald Adams.

Two days of scouting in backyards in rural areas of the county resulted in the collection of the car body, bed frames, old boilers and miscellaneous scrap metal shown above. The five salvage scouts, shown with their "band," say they know where "there's a whole lot more." Left to right the youthful junk collectors are: Waldo Steinaway, jr., 12 years old, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Waldo Steinaway of 27 Burton Rd; Jean McAllister, 13, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harold McAllister of 5010 Park Rd; Robert Hodge, jr., 10, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Hodge of 44 Luella Rd; Donald McAllister, six, brother of Jean; and Arthur Steinaway, brother of Waldo. Just as the picture was taken, Ranger, their canine moral support, strolled in to post also.

Here's how to do it. The scrap tin can drive is on tomorrow. Save 'em, have Mrs. Arthur Resny (see photo) of 506 Maple Ridge, show you how to collapse them easily and safely, and then place them in containers on your lawn extension.
