Shorter school periods driven by state bulletin and schedule limits
Officials adopted shorter periods to meet state Bulletin 471 while preserving offerings. Six periods forced compromises with arithmetic priority and insufficient flexibility for art music and handwork subjects. Grade and high school teachers faced differing off period allocations amid the wartime constraints. Navy submarines sank 201 Japanese warships and 1 113 merchant vessels totaling over 4.7 million tons during World War II.
Weekly Livestock Report From Fort Worth Stock Yards
Fort Worth Stock Yards reports weekly livestock activity with prices and totals for cattle hogs and sheep. Market demand remains strong with steady to higher bids across grades as buyers return for seasonal offerings.
Cattle and calf receipts fall as hogs and sheep rise

Medium fat lambs 21 to 24, culled 14 to 20. stockers and feeders 15 to 22.50. slaughter yearlings 15 to 20. stockers 17. Old sheep 8 to 10, some 10.50 earlier in the week.
