 AMERICAN POLICY Sees Errors in China; AifirmS
 Monroe Doctrine

Los Angeles, Oct. IS (P - The American Federation of Labor frowned on attempts to interfere in the governments foreign policy in Latin America and China and re- corded it's unanimous approval of tho Monroe Doctrine.
 The resolutions committee in con- demning resolution introduced by John Sullivan of New York oppos- ing American interference in for eign countries declared the meas ure itself had no regard for truth.'
 Concerning the general subject of relations with South America, the committee is firmly convinced that a proper adherence to the Monroe Doctrine is necessary for the best interests Of the people of both Gen. tral and South America" the com mittce report said.
 Sidney Bush Arrested
 copy of resolution similar to the one condemned by the commit tee was found in the possession of Sidney Bush, who was arrested while the convention was in pro- gress and charged with communis- tic activities.
 The report declared:
 Tt is unfortunate that the man. ner in which resolutions of this sort are frequently drafted for introduc- tion in state fedcrations of labor land city central bodies inevitably leads 10 the conclusion that their authors are more concerned in pointing the finger of criticism at the government than they are in ascertaining the facts regarding the subject they attempt to discuss
 After affirming the Monroe Doc Urine. the report continued:
 Tt may be that the Nicaraguan situation in Central America was considered sufficient by the authors of the resolution to base the gen eral charge with reference to the South American republics. The com- mittee believes if proper to point out that President Green, acting as president of the American Federa- ton Of Labor and president of the Pan-American Federation of Labor. has already taken the Nicaraguan situation up with the United States government in an effort to be help full to the Nicaraguan people. That, however, is subject which is be- fore another committee which will doubtless, report fully concerning i it."

PRINCETON HAS
 A YOUNG TEAM
Eleven Is Tuned to Finest Pitch
 for Coming Battle

Princeton, Oct. IS LPl-A young ,reen team without d star but tuned
 the finest pitch of team play will
 arry the colors of Princeton into he forthcoming battles with Cor Nell and Ohio State, games which ne veteran Nassau coach, Bill Rop- r, see as tests of rival systems.
 While his husky athletes donned their togs for scrimmage. Roper frankly and not pessimistically an alyzed the strength of this football machine he has built and it's chances of stopping the formidable foes it must face in the next few weeks.
 Our team is young and green,' he said, Tit has no star. It's battles will be won or lost on team play.
 At present Cornell probably has a better chance of beating us than we have of beating Cornell, but our team will improve more between now and the game. It is younger, has more to learn and will learn it faster.
 Tn that game at Ithaca I look for a duel between opposing sys- tems-the Cornell system with it's rushing attack for short steady gains against our own more open passing and kicking game. Winning really hinges on the question of which team will develop the bet ter defense for the others style of offense."
 Ohio State, which fills Harvard s rlace in the Princeton schedule this year, will represent the western type of play in which individual brllllancy figures to 8 greater ex- tent. in Roper's view, while his own eleven will depend upon team work. Tn the east more attention is paid to details" he said, while in the west they have oftentimes the bet ter individual players" Roper men tioned Eby and Rashowski as stars of the Ohio team which he saw in action last year.
 His own squad has been tried In the crucible of heated competition for the eight open places on the team since it reported Sept. IS in better condition, Roper said, than any he has seen in his 14 years as coach. The line which emerged from the trials of early season games averages l92 and the back field 173. Only two of the regulars are seniors and the team as a unit is not old enough to vote Of these , "starless wonders" only two stand out in anything approaching individ- ual brilliance. Ed Wittmer in carry ing the ball and Earl Baruch with his educated drop kick toe. For the rest Roper relies on team work and the concentrated combination Of youth and beef.

 H. E. Fern, secretary of the Ama- teur Swimming Association, today said his association does not give official recognition to cross-channel swims.

The whole matter appears to rest with the swimmers statement and the testi- mony of witnesses.

Wright's Reverse
Fools Opponents
BALL
By SOL METZGER.

No wonder Purdue is recognized
as a strong offensive five when it's
players can do stunts like the fol-
lowing: Capt. Wright will break
back from his guard when the at
tack is advancing, instead of work
ing forward, as his guard expects).
at full speed, catch a pass from a
teammate working up the floor, and
as his opponent rushes in to bat
down the ball, Wright will execute
n reverse pivot away from this man
and go dribbling forward toward
the basket. He thus gains a lead
of several strides on this opponent.
That's great basket ball. a very
clever way of getting your defen-
sive man back of you, where he can
do little harm, instead of in front of
you, where he is in a position to
check the attack.
Wright makes his reverse turn
like a soldier executes the COM
mand, ITO the rear, march" ONLY
he does it when at top speed by
slapping his forward foot to the
floor. pushing off on that and piy-
oting on his rear foot There is no
more clever stunt in the game.
