Clipper" made at DuGuesne this past
season. The students and alumni who
are opposed to the Clark-AnderSon
combine maintain that the present
talk concerning friction between An
derson and Sermon is nothing but a
smoke screen being put out by the
Clark faction in an effort to make
Sermon the %goat'. for AndersonNs
failure to put out winning football
this season and to pave the way for
making Anderson director Of athletics
in addition to being head football
coach.
Clark-AndersOn Support.
But Clark and Anderson have their
friends, too, though not SO many on
the campus, where the sentiment is
.predominantly anti-Clark and Ander-
son and for Sermon. The Clark-An-
derson faction maintain that Dave
and the coach have both worked
intellectually and unselfishly for
the best interests of State College
but that Sermon has been the disturb
ing influence and has been respon-
sible for the lack CT harmony and CO.
operation on the football squad. They
maintain that if the athletic council
would get rid of Sermon, that every
thing would be hunky-dory and that
Hunk would then have no trouble in
putting out winning football team
There are indications that this group
thought they had majority in the

athletic council and fully expected it
to fire Sermon and give Hunk a new
contract of from one to three years,
when the council met last week. But
at that time no action was taken.
Criticism of HARRISON.
The reason the athletic council fail
ed to take any action in it's meeting
last week and postponed action until
today, is believed to have been be-
cause some of the members were a
fraid to bring matters to a vote. 1t is
believed the council will have to take
some definite action in it's meeting to-
day or lose face and prestige with all
concerned.
There is also beginning to be con-
siderable criticism of Colonel Harrel-
son for not stepping in and taking
some emphatic action one way or the
other, since it is agreed that this sit
uation at State is reacting both a
gainst the college and against Harrei-
son as it's administrative dean. Stu
dents and alumni both are frankly
expressing themselves as believing
there has been entirely too much
pussy-footing and fence straddling. If
the athletic council and college au-
thorities do not settle this situation
definitely and quickly there are in
dications that the General Assembly
may step in and do it for them.

to offer Coach rs nix" Anderson an
ter before the State Council Athletic
Council, those who nave been delving
into the State College football and
athletic tangle agree. The real task
before the athletic council is for it to
decide on a definite policy and de-
termine who is going to run the ath-
letic department at State, the athletic
council, one or two alumni, or the
coaches, it. is agreed. The council
must also attempt to settle the bit
ter fued generally admitted to exist
between the Dave Clark Hunk Ander-
son faction among the alumni and
students and the DR.. Sermon faction.
There are some here VINO fear that
unless this fued within the athletic
department at State is not settled and
settled quickly it may get before the
University trustees or even be thrown
into the General Assembly, which will
convene in regular session in January
There are rumblings that it may lead
to an effort to abolish football at
State and that this effort would have
the whole-hearted support of the
Chapel Hill, Duke, Wake Forest and
Davidson alumni in the General AS
sembly.
Campus Against Anderson.
There is no doubt that most of the
State College student body and
number of the faculty members are
opposed to keeping Coach Hunk An
derson, even for another year, and
that they are likewise opposed to
Dave Clark of Charlotte, remaining
on the athletic council, since many
are convinced that to all intents and
purposes Dave Clark is the athletic
council. Those who are opposed to
both Anderson and Clark maintain
that Clark has dominated the council
for years and has run the football end
of the athletic department with high
hand, with the result that those
coaches whom Clark did not like got
out, while those he did like stayed.
AS an example, they point to the re-
signation of Clipper" Smith some
three years ago and then to the record

UPHOLD MISS. JUDGE

PHILADELPHIA, (ANP)- The
famous decision of District Judge
t. Webber Wilson, native Mississ-
ippian named to head the Virgin
Islands judiciary, in the case of
Leonard w. Mcintosh, Negro Vir-
gin Islander, which has caused a
split between Secretary Ickes and
Attorney General Cummings was
upheld by the Federal Circuit
Court of Appeals in a decision
handed down here last week.
Mcintosh, chief clerk in the De-
partment of Public Works of the
Virgin Isles, was found guilty by
Judge Wilson of "embezzling" a
small quantity of lumber, cement
and nails, worth not more than
$40. He was sentenced to pay a
fine of 5000 or serve 100 days in
jail.
At the circuit court hearing held
here in December, Secretary Ickes'
lawyers declared Judge Wilson had
overstepped his authority in his
conduct of the case and had acted
as Judge, jury, prosecutor and
prosecution Witness leaving the
bench to cross examine and harass
McIntosh's witnesses, and that he
convicted the clerk on insufficient
evidence.
In reality, however, it was a bat
tie between Ickes and Cummings
over civil control of the Virgin Is
lands, both sides contending auth
ority belonged to them. Secretary
Ickes said his office should ap-
point the attorney for the islands,
and called the attorney general a
"usurper" of those rights.
Both Judge Joseph Burlington
and Judge ]. Warren Davis, writ
ing majority opinions, threw out
the Ickes' contentious that the con-
viction was unjust, that Cummings
had usurped authority, and declar-
ed they had listened to arguments
of Ickes' attorneys purely as a
matter of courtesy"

Howdy. readers. Here we are
again, back at the old stand. We're
like a cork, duck US under the wa
ter and we bob up serenely on the
surface again. After gazing at
the moniker topping this column
for thirteen years, It has become
an obsession, a periodic perversive
necessity that, although each week
we dread its coming, we cannot
help feeling an expectant thrill
and welcome anticipation. It pays
to get hot in the collar during cold
weather. It may save fuel bills.
But during these budding vernal
days a balanced budget (tempera-
ment) seems best. So my dear
readers, we're with you and trust
you are with us in our desire for
clean leadership in the affairs
pertaining to the welfare of the
race.
