Williams expects to develop a
pair of competent guards from Ed
win Thompson, Marshalltown; Ken
meth Suesens, Burlington, and Joe
Van Ysseldyk, Muscatine. All are
sophomores with plenty of size.
The HawkeyeS won six and lost
six in the conference race last year.
Their opponents for the coming
season are Illinois, Ohio State, Pur-
due, Chicago, Wisconsin and Mich
igan.
Over Minnesota Way
COACH DAVID MAC MILAN,
~ starting his ninth year at
Minnesota, has seven lettermen
around which to build his team.
George Roscoe, football star who
played forward last year, has been
shifted to guard and has been team
ing with Dick Setback, another let
ter winner. William Freimuth, six
foot, 20O-pound guard last season,
is being given a try at center al
though George Gustafson, six foot,
two-inch sophomore, is making a
great bid for the position. Charles
Wallblom and James Baker, both
regulars last year, are expected TO
hold down the forward jobs.
The Gophers have shown none
too much promise in their prelim-
mary games this season, especially
in their 29-to-26 defeat by Carleton.
They won five and lost seven in the
Conference race last year.
Minnesota's opponents this sea-
son will be Illinois, Michigan, In
diana, Northwestern, Ohio State
and Purdue.
Prospects at other Big Ten schools are
to be outlined later by Winthrop Lyman

THERE is no talk about a cham
l. pionship at Iowa, where Coach
Rollie Williams is building almost
an entirely new team Only two
major letter winners from last
season are left, Sid Rosenthal, Chi
cago, forward, and Capt. John
Barko, forward.
Barko was the fourth high scorer
in the conference last year, but his
intercollegiate competition will end
Feb /, making him available for
only half of the campaign. Bush
Lamb, sophomore football star, is
being groomed for Barko's job.
After Barko's graduation, four
sophomores probably will be in the
regular lineup. Jack Drees, a six
foot five-inch giant from Eu Claire,
Wis, appears to have the center job
clinched.

Don't Quote Me-
(By United Press

WASHINGTON, May II. WP)-As
mas been widely publicized, the
navy department here has only a
vague idea of where the U. S. fleet
now is.
This is due to the great secrecy
with which the fleets movements
have been cloaked in order to in
crease the effectiveness of the war
games.
1t is likely, however, that despite
the precautions and the secrecy
that the navy department has a
somewhat clearer idea of the fleets
whereabouts than the congregation
of the Somerdale, N. j., Community
Baptist church.
The congregation submitted a re-
solution to the senate which has
been duly referred to the commit
tee on naval affairs. The reSolu-
ton protests bitterly against the
naval maneuvers of the Pacific
fleet in the Baltic Straits"

NRA FADING AWAY

1t begins to appear, when a majority
of Democratic senators oppose a two
years extension for the NRA, that the
child of General Hugh S. Johnson is in
deed in bad way
The youngster born amid such blow
ing of trumpetS two years ago is getting
the treatment usually accorded in real
life to poor relations or neglected or
phans.
Originally the NRA was to expire next
month. President Roosevelt desired a
two years extension, but his party rep
resentatives in the upper house of con-
gress yesterday turned thumbs down"
on the suggestion and decided nine
months would be enough
There was plenty of ironic humor and
lots of bitter truth in the letter from a
Missouri editor which appeared in yes
terday's Don't Quote column, relative
to the NRA.
Charging that the NRA is squeezing
the little man out of business, the editor
asserted he had been informed he must
pay So to the government through the
NRA for the privilege of belonging to
"code," or else go to jail or be fined.
He contends the NRA has played such
havoc with his business that he cannot
find the So with which to pay and pre-
sumes he will have to go to jail.
Admitting that the NRA has develop
ed certain phases that have been OF aid
to American industry, we can't quite
forget our first experience with it.
All of us know the mountain country
west of US is dotted with small cafes and
restaurants operated by families, all OF
whom assist in conducting them. For
merly valley overnight visitors to the hills
depended upon these cafes for an early
morning breakfast when they were re-
turning to the valley. When the NRA
came along it prohibited these cafes from
opening at the usual hour, thereby not
only depriving valley residents of break
fast but also depriving the families op-
Grating the cafes from the revenue they
would pick up in the early morning
hours Earlier closing hours at night
also cut down the revenue. Happily the
NRA restrictions were ignored later, to
the convenience of valleyites and the
profit of the cafe owners. While they
were observed they worked no good and
did cause harm.
That one phase was an indication OF
what the NRA could do to the little fell
low and it has done similar things to
many other little fellows" in its two
years of existence. We wonder if even
the nine months extension is not too long.
Today the President starts on a week
end fishing trip and we hope he doesn't
imagine every fish squealing bonus"

Federal Judge Charles c.. Briggle
on their conviction of conspiracy
charges.
Sentence was passed after the

Both were freed under $4,000 bail

a new trial, said he did not believe
the court was justified in disturb
