Army to Expand Special Training for Youth in 1944
Washington AP reports a broad expansion of short term college training for boys near draft age at Army Navy expense. Seventeen year olds may enter programs to prepare for induction, with tests March 15 and potential paths through V 12 and ASTP. Training emphasizes applied sciences and premedical tracks, with limited foreign language options and varying lengths of study before active duty. The plan aims to keep colleges operating as Army reduces its current specialty training. The piece also profiles Major Dick Reed, Marion high school alumnus and Army flyer, outlining his service and decorations.

Lard Exempted From Rationing Amid Surge in Production
The Office of Price Administration freed lard from rationing in March as hog slaughter rises to record levels. The War Food Administration allocated 50 million pounds of lard to soap makers for March, with civilian access set at 20 million pounds. Deliveries to soap manufacturers must finish by March 31. The future ration status depends on civilian allocations in coming months. January and February output reached about 514 million pounds, about 200 million more than last year, with yearly production expected to surpass 3 billion pounds and set new records.
