basketball team he is develop
at New York University-and
because Of the spectacular
showing the team has made, he
has been able to command his
figure for the appearance Of
the varsity on the basketball

breakers are ahead for Howard
for the star of his up and
coming freshman team is Ed
Williams, lanky colored center
much in the order Of George

N THE REALM OF
IS PO Z T S..

Otian Brown Bomber Retzlaff,
next opponent for Christian
Joe, falls in the "lion" cate
CORY when he says he'll beat
the Dusky Destroyer. That's
as much lynn as you'll see for
many a day.
When a professional boxer
these days offers to get into
the same ring with Mr.. Joseph
Louis Barrow, the heavyweight
to en- dali heavyweights, he
ought to be looked upon as a
mental oddly. Rotzlaff does
not necessarily need the cash
as the 81 year old white youth
is worth 100000 after six
years Of fighting. If the truth
must be known, it is the same
ambition tina made medieval
alchemists seek a mythical
philosophers stone" which
would turn everything it touch
ed into gold-the accomplish
ment of the impossible.
Every boxer today knows
that a victory over Joe would
belong in the class of hiking
from New York to London.
There would be fame a plenty,
and the mark is worth shooting
It. That is, if you re like Nathan
Hale who was proud to give his
one life for his country. When
they fight Louis, those who say
"Id die for dear old Rutgers
get their wish.
Jack Blackburn, who once
trained Retzlaff admits the
white boy is tough. Charley,
who stands SIX foot four and
weighs 1913 does have something
of a punch. But for that matter,
a couple of lads named Max
Baer and Kingfish Lovinsky
whatever became of them7)
could also hit. That means Ret
zlaff, by his reputation, is mere
Ily making it harder on himself.
Well, it's lis own funeral. If
Charley wants to commit sui
eide before several thousand OBJ

COMMUNISM BILL
ACTION SEEN NEAR
Chairman Norton to Expe.
dite Sisson Amendment
in Committee.

Early House action on the bill of
Representative Sisson, Democrat, Of
New York to amend the widely-dis-
cussed anti-communism rider in the
1886 District appropriation act. was
predicted today by Chairman Norton
Of the House District Committee.
The bill, which would amend and
clarity the so-called "red rider" is
now in the District Committee. She
will make an effort to have the full
committee report it favorably at the
regular meeting next Wednesday. SO
it can be placed on the House CAL
endar in time for consideration on
the next District day." February "a.
Mrs. Norton declared she favored
the Sisson measure and thinks it
should be brought before the House as
soon as possible. The red rider"
she said, already has done a great
deal of harm to both teachers and
pupils in the washington schools"
Committee Action.
Plans for expediting committee ac-
ton on the bill were made by Mrs.
Norton after bitter verbal battle on
the floor of the House yesterday be-
tween Sisson and Representative Blan-
ton. Democrat, of Texas, champion of
the red rider"
Angry words were hurled during
the discussion, as the House alter
nately laughed and applauded, espe-
cially over an unexpected develop
ment when Representative zioncheck,
Democrat, of Washington injected
himself into the battle.
zioncheck became aroused when
Blsnton said an argument he had
made was Jasmine and ridiculous"
and demanded that the Texans words
be taken down-a preliminary move
for expunging the remarks from the
record. Blanton had previously ac-
cused Zioncheck of having been
"doped" when the anti-communism
rider was adopted at the last session,
but he withdrew that remark.
Blanton said he was perfectly will
ing" to have his words taken down.
The Texan took his seat as Speaker
Byrns and Lewis Descher, House par
Humanitarian. thumbed through the
pages of huge dictionary to find the
definition of "asinine"

he found, but announced: Il don't
think there is anything in that lam
guage which is improper"
Point of Order Withdrawn.
Il thought I was being compli-
mented by being called an ass by the
gentleman from Texas" said Zion
check Now that I am not compli-
mented, 1 withdraw the point of
order"
Sisson argued that the anti-com-
munism rider was put through Con-
gress unfairly and the effect had been
exactly the opposite of its purpose by

This Changing World

BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

The convention Of diplomats held in

Czechoslovak. Austrian and Yugoslav
statesmen all agreed that the iron
fence against the Reich must be

to find a new protector.

BILLIARDS SWEEP

More Snow Predicted for
Northeast Tonight or

BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, February 12.-New bliz-
yards swept into the Northwest today
as a cold wave was forecast for Okla
homa and more snow for most of the
Northeastern States either tonight or
tomorrow.
Cornbelt States, already near punch
drunk from repeated onslaughts by
subzero waves and billiards. labored
furiously to reopen railroad lines and
highways. Many communities re-
manned isolated, food and fuel short
ages continued acute, schools were
closed and suffering proceeded un-
abated. Several new deaths were re-
ported.
Many cities were forced to burn
wood, and, in a few instances, corn
was used to supply heat.
Billiards choked highways anew in
Western Montana. Highway traffic in
Northern Oregon was almost at a
standstill, due to sleet storms. Idaho
reported roads blocked by snow for the
past four days.
California had moderate tempera-
lures, with rain at San Francisco.
Slightly moderated temperatures were
predicted for Illinois and Indiana. The
mercury stood at above zero in Chi
cago at 2 am.
The Ohio River was frozen over for
l00-mile stretch from Pittsburgh TO

Two men and six boys were rescued
from an island in the Ohio River near
Owensboro, KY. They we're marooned
since Thursday and suffered from cold
and hunger.
Another ice gorge formed near Pa

manned isolated on a work boat since
Friday. They were reported in no i'm

Three car ferries and three other

gon, Mich, with little apparent chance
TO free themselves until the wind

today described the latest draft of the
road-closing resolution as "inopera-
tive" and said he would try to have
amendments made when it comes up
in the Senate. There we're no indi-
cations. however, that the issue would
come up in the Senate today.
Senator Byrd said the people of Vir-
ginia are not trying to prevent the
removal of any hazards existing on
the road adjacent to the airport. but
emphasized that they want some pro-
vision made for a substitute highway
If the existing road is closed. He
pointed out that Military road was
declared to be public road when
Congress provided for it in 1912. He
indicated his fear regarding the new
resolution Is that If the airport did
not buy the road at the $4,000 price
called for in the resolution and no
one else made bid for it at auction,
that the road would be closed without
q substitute.
Meanwhile, airport officials. declin-
ing to comment on the new measures.
said there Is no change in their plan
to withdraw Military road guards and
turn of traffic lights at 4 pm, Satur-
day.
The Commerce Department has
served notice that If control of Mill
tary road traffic Is suspended, 1t will
be compelled as safety measure to
prohibit further use Of the airport by
transport planes Of the four airlines
operating out of Washington. The
Post Office Department and the air.
lines are ready to move airmail and
transport operations to Logan Field,
Baltimore, as soon as the field is closed
Airport officials indicated they would
refuse to pay $50,000 for Military road
under terms Of the new Senate and
House resolutions. since there is no
guarantee that the Government will
not build competing airport and
force them out of business.
Should the airport corporation re-
fuse to pay $4,000 for the road, the
Secretary of War is directed to ad-
vertise and sell that portion of the
road at public auction, at a minimum
price of $4,000. Sale of the road
at auction, it is believed, would de-
stroy the airport for airport purposes
and result in its subdivision and sale
for industrial development.
The joint resolutions were intro
duced over the opposition of airport
officials
