B. M. WILL NOT
 TAKE CARE OFF
 FROSH TUITION
New Financial - Athletic Clashes Loom = No
 Strike Vet
By BERNARD J. MILES Limited Press Staff Correspondent

United Press Staff CorrespondenD
 Pittsburg, Nov. 16.-(UP)-De- emphasis of football at the Univer- sity of Pittsburg went beyond the dream stage today as Business Manager John Weber refused to take care" of tuition notes signed by freshman players.
 When presented with bills for $50 for their first half-year tuition, B members of the freshman squad re- piled, We came to Pittsburg with the understanding we would receive athletic scholarships"
 Weber said that since the sports de-emphasis program announced by Chancellor Dr. John c. Bowman last November, all athletic scholar ships had been banned, and remind ed the boys that they had signed promisory notes for the $500 full tuition fee, and payable to the uni verSity.
 The players, forming one of Coach Jock SutherlandiS most promising freshman squads in years, said they had believed the notes were a mere formality and that the athletic de- pertinent would take care" of them.
 Weber said the university had no idea of taking care" of the notes of that tuition bills "are payable currently" He did promise some extra jobs to help the boys liquidate the notes. But this only created another impasse. The students claimed they already were overtaxed with jobs, studies and football.
 So far as is known the freshmen are not planning to strike" or quit school in default of their notes. They practiced yesterday for their last game of the season against Kiski Prep Saturday. If a satisfactory solution is not found, however, Pittsburg may lose valuable grid talent Sutherland needed to replace three members of its dream back field" seniors Goldberg, Stebbins and Chickerneo.
 Weber's stand was the third mani- festation of official determination for strict professional" ath- letic policy.
 The first came last fall after the Panthers had been acclaimed almost unanimously as national champions. Almost sure bet to participate in the New Years day Rose Bowl game, the team announced it was not interested in the coast trip. The action was attributed to the schools refusal to grant a demand for spending money" to players eligi- ble for a California trip.
 The second demonstration came this fall when IS sophomore squad members refused to practice because of differences" with the Pitt busi- ness department. They demanded to know just how long, and hard they were expected to work on their various jobs around the building, and whether they could get wage advances.

ANDERSON YALE GAME STARTER
Naugatuck Boy to GO Against Harvard-Line
 Uncertain, Too

New Haven, Conn, Nov. 16.-(UP) Coach Ducky Pond today experi- mented with his Yale backfield combinations as large-scale prepara- tions went forward for the Harvard game here Saturday.
 Pond remained uncommitted on the starting backfield lineup, and intimated there may be some changes, too, in the line.
 Indications were that Ray Ander- son, sophomore, who played an ex- cellent game against Princeton, will start in the quarterback position against Harvard. The other start CTS may be Al Wilson, Johnny Mill Ter and Eddie Collins.

Second Round Opens ]; Sharon Average l23.0;
 MarineIli Shines

American Brass, first round In- dustrial league bowling leaders, kept up the good work by getting off to a clean sweep start in the first games of the second round last night at Mattatuck alleys. They won all three games from Ingersoll and in addition took high game of 615, and high team total of 1,798. To make the evening perfect from every angle, Eddie Marinelli the Brass No. 4 man, hit a high single of 162 and a three game set of All with strings of 118 and 131 added to his best single.
 Chase Metal, runners-up to Am- erican Brass, won all three games from Scovills, and may move up to challenge for the lead later in the second round. Mickey Sharon of the Chase team, incidentally, was left out of the high average men, through a clerical error, when as a matter of record, he is runner-up to Benny Stoke with 21 games aver age of 123.9, excellent rolling in anybodys league.

STATE DEPARTMENT DENIES
HAMPERIEG NEGRO TOURIST

New York, Sept. , The United
States Department denied this
week that the Government usss
its passport agency as a lever to
discourage American Negroes from
travelling abroad.
The denial was contained in a
letter sent to the National Assoc
iation for the Advancement of
Colored People by John Seaman,
acting chief of the State Depart
ment's passport division, and made
public by the Association today.
The NAACP. had complained
that colored travellers on ships out
Of New York were subjected to
much detailed questioning as e
their financial ability, their en-
ployment, bank accounts, cash,
on hand, etc. before U. S. offic.
ials would issue passports to
them.
Because American representa-
tives of the United States in for
eign countries have reported
"the cases of a lagre number of
American citizens abroad who
have become stranded abroad
without funds" the State depart
ment wrote the NAACP., the Uni.
ted States has adopted the policy
of giving careful scrutiny to the
financial condition Of passport ap-
%plicants who the examiners "sus-
pect-may not have sufficient
funds for-maintenance while a

This ruling, the letter said, us

ate against any American citizen.
irrespective OF his race or color.
Not content with this reply, the
NAACP. has written again to the
department citing the fact that
the Young woman who made the
original complaint had a certified
round trip ticket and her financial
status had been investigated and
approved by the tourist agency
from whom she bought her tick
ct. All this information was sent
to the passport bureau before the
lady applied for her passport
and still she was questioned al
great length and only received her
passport after a desperate last
minute appeal directly to Secre-
tary Hull.

"SateheI Page Greatest
Pitcher of All Times"
Says Dizzy Dean

CHICAGO, Sept. % (ANP) -
Cast another vote for Satchel Page
as the greatest pitcher in organ
lied baseball. This time the bal
lot comes from none other than
the great Dizzy himself, incapac-
itated ace of the Chicago Cubs
pitching staff, who writes a daily
column for one of the local after
noon papers. At the same time,
Dizzy lamented the absence of star
colored players from the big
leagues.
Said Dean in Thursdays COL
umn-
"A bunch of the fellows get in
a barber session the other day
and they start to argue about
whose the best pitcher they ever
see and some says lefty Grove
and Lefty Gomez and Walter
Johnson and old Pete Alexander
and Dizzy Vance.
"Ard they mention Lonnie
Warneke and Van Mungo and
Carl Hubbell, and Johnny CorA
riden tells us about Matty, and
be sure must of been great, and
some of the boys even say old Dir
is the best they ever see.
'But | see all them fellows but
Matty and Johnson, and | know
whose the best pitcher | ever see
and its old Satchel Page, that big
lanky colored boy. Say, old Dir
is pretty fast back j n1933 and
1884, ard you know my fast ball
looks like a change of pace along
side that little pistol bullet old
Satchel shoots up to the plate.
And I really knew something a
bout it, because for four, five
y airs, l toured around at the end
of the seaso nwith All Star teams
and l see plenty of old Satch.
Gle sure is a pistol. It's too
bad those colored boys don't play
in the big leagues, because they
sure got some great players. That
fellow Duncan which catches for

can't say no more than that a
catcher.
81 sure get a kick out of him.
One time when I pitch against a
Southern all-star colored team for
n Northern ~all-star team, and
Duncan catches me, and he has
a glove that makes that old ball
pop, and he makes my pitch sound
like a rifle shot, and he tells them
hitters, boy, don't get near that
plate. Don't let that ball hit you
or it kills you.
"And can they play around that
infield. Say, the way they fir
that ball around, you don't knew
where it is half the time.
Anyways, that skinny old Sat
chel Page with those long arm:
is my idea of the pitcher with the
greatest stuff ever l see."

Chicago's All Negro Town
Robin, ILL.,, A Rising
Community

CHICAGO, Sept. % (ANP) -
Consideration of the general prob
lem of Negro housing and efforts
of the National Technical Assoc
iation to have Negro engineers
and architects employed on the
proposed PWA South Park Gar
dens for Negroes here, turned pub
lie attention this week to the all
Negro town of Robbins, H., to
see what success residents there
have had IN solving their housing
and other civic problems.
Located on the far Southwest

Posen has 95 percent Polish resi-
dents.
There are IL churches, with the
18th now under construction. Most
picturesque Robbins resident is
100 year old Thomas H~arton, the
Oldest citizen who lives in a little
house constructed by himself.
Most all of the homes in the vii
lage Lave small, well kept gar
dens and the citizens have great
civic pride. For the past Is years
Leroy P. Thomas has been the
postmaster and he fills his office
with credit.
Aside from Mayor Richardson,
whose daytime job is deputy sher-
if in the office of John Toman,
other Robbins officials are o. w.

ward Brown, R. L. Allen, David
Fox and Frank Beard.
