Syracuse basketball fans are
again thrilling to the name
Thompson. This time it's Bill
Thompson, of Passaic, N. j., and
a graduate of the Peddie School,
who is performing at forward on
the undefeated freshman court
team. He's a younger brother OF
the famous Thousand Point"
Bobby Thompson, of the re-
knowned Passaic High School
team of the early '20's. Bobby was
a Syracusan but never partici-
pated in varsity basketball be-
cause of a heart condition.
Thwarted in his big ambition,
the older Thompson entered the
managerial competition and be-
came manager of varsity basket
ball at Syracuse. Now he's de-
pending upon the kid" brother
to put the family name in the
headlines of collegiate basketball.
And Billy gives promise he can do
it. In addition to being the sec
ond high scorer among the froSh,
he's attracted the eye of coaches
and officials with his sensational
floor game and speed.

For debate topic, Long suggested
What has become Of the promises
of the candidate of the Democratic
party, and what can be expected in
the future based on the character of
the performance in the last two
years?"

ideal place to hold the debate, Long
said, but he added that If he could

At the same time, Long told news
men he would offer his "share-the-
wealth" program as an amendment
to the tax bill approved yesterday by
the House.
Long began his speech by asserting
that he had been a model of perfec-

The White House is expected to
greet with silence the challenge to an
open debate which Senator Long,
Democrat, of Louisiana, tossed at
President Roosevelt.
Though the Louisiana Senator and
the administration have long been
engaged in feud, the strategy of the
latter has not included public replies
to the assaults of Long.
Offering to guarantee the crowds, I"
Long proposed yesterday that the
President meet him in Louisiana or
elsewhere to debate the New Deal.
The challenge was voiced in the
first Senate speech Long has made in
two weeks. He indicated he was stirred
to hurl it by newspaper headlines
saying the President might soon visit
Arkansas to support Senator Robinson,
Democratic leader, who is up for re-
election next year, and to open an
anti-Long campaign in the South.
IF Mr.. Roosevelt has that idea"
said Long, why pick Arkansas. That

Miss Katherine Lenroot, chief of the

approved removal of the stigma OF
illegitimacy from children born cut
Of wedlock, but held that needed in
formation on identification should be
conserved.
Commenting on the resolution of the
vital statistics section of the American
Public Health Association convention
in Milwaukee, urging elimination from
official birth records of all references
to the legitimacy of a child, Miss Len
root said:
"The Children's Bureau has been
interested for many years in the pro-
lection of children against the stigma
of illegitimacy. We have taken the
attitude that no transcripts of records
for school purposes, or employment
purposes, or other purposes affecting
the life of the child, should contain
this information.
However. definite problems OF
identification do arise. What we are
therefore most interested in is practical
methods to safeguard from stigma,
at the same time conserving needed
information on identity"
