out in Big Six company.
From q wealth Of great guards,

went to such other outstanding east

rating either of these stars the ALL

Two of last years all-America
aces, Jack Buckler of the Army and
Cotton Warburton Of Southern Cali
fornia, dropped from the top-ranking
list although still displaying rare
ability. Warburton, his star obscur-
ed on losing team, was rated by
some coast observers as even better
than In 1888. Buckler, handicapped
by leg injury, nevertheless contin-
ued to carry the brunt Of an Army
attack that lost some of the sharpness
it showed last year.
Other backfield men who earned
high recommendations during the

Washington State, the versatile Ha-

Switzer Of Cornell, Cardwell of Ne

Students Plan

TuitioninCuba

HAVANA, Nov, 6-Widespread in
terest has ben aroused by the prep
arations for the national concen-
tration of students in Havana,
scheduled for Nov. 9. Organized by
the left-wing student organization
Gala Izquierda EstudiantiD, the con-
centration is taking place under the
slogan Of unlimited free tuition for
poor students in the National Uni
versity.
The Government has announced
that in place of the 5000 students
who were granted free tuition in
the past year, only 500 would be
allowed scholarships during the
coming school year.
The Ala Izquierda, which is the
acknowledged leader of the free
tuition movement, has been the OBJ
ject Of fascist crusade carried out
by cowardly attacks of armed gangs.
This campaign, which has as its
watchword Ito destroy Communism

work of the Abe and other reac-
tionary elements, such as the Ma
chadist-Cathoic newspaper editor
Pepin Rivero, dierctly inspired and
aided by Batista.

HYDE PARK, N. Y, Nov. 6.-The
plight of the unemployed news
paper man was placed before Presi-
dent Roosevelt by a delegation Of
officers of the American Newspaper
Guild here yesterday. The group also
raised the issues of publishers in

Leading the delegation was Jona-
than Eddy, executive secretary of
the organization, and Haywood
Broun, national vice. president.
Morris Watson, Carl Randau and
James M. Kieran accompanied the
national officers.
Pointing out the acute nature of
the situation in New York City, the
center of newsdom, the delegates
told the president that there were
300 unemployed newspapermen in
the city listed with the Guild. The
formation Of a separate NR.A. code
for the large press associations or
the revision of the present news
paper code was demanded by the
delegation.
No definite statement was made
by Roosevelt, although he did ex-
press interest, according to the dele
cation.

are Party nuclei at present.
Every Party unit, every fraction
every member, will not be working
properly during the Party recruiting
dive, unless new fighters are gained
for the Young Communist League.
The building Of the Y. G. L. must
be done in a planned way. The
Party, through every one of its or
CARNATIONS, should discuss the prob
lem OF building the revolutionary
youth movement Immediately. and
outline definite tasks that will be
accomplished.
1t is our aim to build the Y. c. L.
into an organization larger in size
than the Party in the shortest pos
slbe time. The first concerted work
70 achieve this aim must be accom-
plished in the period of the next
few months.
The Central Committee likewise
calls upon all Young Communists to
increase their efforts to build an or
ganization of 1900 by Jan. l. Not
only must the Y. c. l.. achieve a
decisive increase in membership but
it must come out Of the drive with
firner roots among the youth. The
recruiting drive should stimulate
work at the shops, in the trade
unions, and in the youth organiza-
tons that are controlled by the rul-
ing class
