Story Of Stanford Tutor

Last year, if you remember, STAN
ford didn't win one in her own
league. The advance report on her
team this year was: Maybe a
little better. but not much; figures
to land in the cellar"
So, up to date, the Indians, under
the new management of Mr.
ShaughneSSy, have beaten San
Francisco. Oregon, Santa Clara,
Washington State and Southern
California. while they themselves
have not been beaten or even tied.
Shaughnessy's material is better
than any one expected. But so is
Shaughnessy, boys. So is Shaugh-
messy.
There is a Cinderella flavor to
the slight, gray, soft-spoken fellow
who looks more a professor or trigo-
nometry than a coach. Come to
think of it. I don't know what a
professor of trigonometry is sup
posed to look like. Or a coach
either. Coaches range in appear
ance all the way from Stout Steve
Owen, who looks like a hotel, to
Pop Warner. who looks like a Latter
Day Prophet.
The best word I can think of for
Shaughnessy, the last time I saw
him, is "wistful" He had just fin

Supplementary to the agreement,
the Is unions, through the Council,
adopted a resolution pledging all eff
forts to keep production for the ma
tional defense power program at the
highest possible level. The unions also
promised to stamp out any subversive
elements that might arise.
T. V. AS labor policy has drawn
high praise from many sources. The
most comprehensive analysis of the
policy was made recently by Judson
King, director Of the National Popu-
lar Government League, and published
in pamphlet form.
"The T. V. A. experiment" King
said, "gave it's board and it's en-
ployes an opportunity to set up new
and advanced type of labor relations;
one in which the old master-servant,
dog-eat-dog, strike-and-lockout meth
DDS would be abolished"
All foremen and superintendents
were coached in administering the
policy, so that labor would be fairly
treated. Those who failed to go along
were disciplined or dismissed, King
pointed out
The result has been, he added, that
not only has labor won superb work
ing conditions, but efficiency has been
high and construction costs low. King
suggested that the T. V. A. idea be
followed by all publicly-owned utili-
ties in the nation.

Americanism."
Mr.. Green said he was not referring

He urged that the Communist Party

corroborated when a signed state

five years ago and while she was

that has now been minimized."
