/ Might Be
Wrongful
-by p. G. Stromberq'

Wnether IL DE Ialr or UNFAIR,
honest conviction or plain
prejudice, it is nevertheless
pertinent for Americans to
wonder why Great Britain has
not taken more advantage of
the breathing spell offered while
Hitler is engaged in Russia.
People who have no patience
with nor liberation for the
obstructionists headed by the
Wheeler Nye Lindbergh group
are so anxious to see a cessa-
ton of constant German sue
cesses that they want to know
why some major effort has not
been launched during the past
three months.
Quite naturally we are given
only the information which will
not divulge military plans. It
could well be possible that Eng
lands military leaders have
used the respite to strengthen
vital positions. It might be
that they have done much
more effective and devastating
job of destruction on the
French, Belgian and Dutch
coasts than is generally known.
American critics are in need Of
encouragement. They figure
that masterful and strategic
retreats are fine but battles
and equipment are not won by
retreating. On the contrary
much equipment apd n3annower
are lost.
So it might be that in her
effort to conserve materiel,
Britain has decided against
creation of another western
front through costly invasion
of the continent. Much more
is likely to be gained by
smashing air-attacks and by
spotting land forces and equip
ment in vital positions-posi-
tions which might. prove the
real battle ground of the near
future.
Britain's occupation of Iran
and Iraq are steps which indi-
cate this trend in her policy.
A study of the map will show
the tremendous Importance of
these two countries if and when
the Germans break through and
attempt to obtain control of
the worlds richest oil fields.
Between the Black Sea and the
Caspian Sea lies the Sea of
Azov around which is located
the rich oil fields of the eau
casus from which Russia draws
her oil supply. With Hitler's
hordes now in possession of
Odessa on the Black Sea and
with pressure being brought on
both Bulgaria and Turkey to
join the Nazi forces it is evil
dent that the Germans plan a
major effort to reach the Suez
Canal by land. This is what
Britain has been preparing to
meet and this is where Herr
Hitler must be stopped.
Lack of favorable reports
from the British adds to the
feeling that perhaps England is
not herself exerting an all out
effort.
Common sense, however. can
not help but sway one to the
belief that the stake is too high
for England to permit any de-
lay in her supreme effort. I'm
patience is not conducive to
good, understanding. Every
ounce of sympathetic support in
America is essential to encour-
age a higher and higher pro-
duction of war materials. And
the greater the volume of our
shipments of tools of war to
the British the greater will be
the encouragement to them.

YALE UNDERDOC
 AGAINST PENN
Nelson Rated Football Moses at New Haven;
 Wesleyan vs. UcOnns
By United Press

All Connecticut college football teams move into front-line duty again tomorrow, but interest cen- tered on, two major games - the Yale-Penn and the Wes,eyan-Uni- versity of Connecticut encounters.
 The Ellis, meeting Penn in the Yale Bowl, held the center of in- terest because of the thrilling vic- tory over Virginia last week. In that game, Virginia led l9 to o at the half, but Yale came back to score q points in the second half, while holding the visitors scoreleSs.
 Nelson Real Leader
 Coach Spike" Nelson denies working any magic" on the team In the locker room during the half time intermission, but there are many who doubt this. There was 8 strong feeling on the campus that a re-birth of Eli football power was at hand, and that Nelson was the man who would lead the Yales to the promised land.
 Penn, however, scored surpris- ing victory over tricky Harvard team last week, and there were not a few who felt the visitors, despite the loss of Frank Reagan, still had enough punch to carsh out vic- tory over the Ellis tomorrow. In any event, close contest was expected.
 Seek First Win
 Meantime, final preparations were being made today for the first big game between two Connecticut small college elevens-Weselyan and Con- necticut, both of whom still are without victories for the season.
 The game will be played at Mid- dletown and was regarded as a toSS-up.
 Trinity, victorious in two games. meets Worcester Tech at Hartford, and the Connecticut team was fla vored heavily.
 The U. s. Coast Guard Academy team. perhaps the strongest among the small colleges in the state, goes after its fourth straight victory at Troy, N. Y., against Rensselaer,. Ar- hold meets Wagner, and the New Britain Teachers play the Trenton Teachers in other games.

Newton, Mass, Oct. l0-Scout re- ports of Clemson's great football team have spurred the Boston Col leg eEagles on to strenuous efforts in preparation for the meeting oi the erstwhile Cotton Bowl rivals al Fenway Park, tomorrow at 2:30 p m.
 Coach Denny Myers, greatly con- cerned over the impressions the South Carolina contingent made on Endboach Harry Mar who scout- ed them in two games, conducted a series of scrimmages last week, and concluded the heavy drills with a skirriish between the varsity and freshmen on Wednesday. The latter ran the Clemson plays featuring powerhouse fullback plungeS, and forward passing.
 Exceptional power and excellent condition were noted by Marr as he viewed the Tigers in games against Presbyterian and Virginia Military Institute. Besides wallop- ing both of these opponents by one- sided margins, Clemson defeated North Carolina State last week. end while the Eagles were idle.
 Injuries to both regular ends will weaken the B. c. frontier and Coach Myers realizes that his team will have to put up top-notch performance to atone for the 6-3 loss to Clemson In the 1940 Cotton Bowl.

Has Had Defense" Work Since Oct |; Employment
 Man Is CO-Defendant

San Francisco, Oct. 10.--(UP)-- Robert Uhl, professional baseball player owned by the Detroit Tigers, today sought to escape induction into the army through a new ap- peal to the federal courts.
 Federal Judge A. P. St. Sure yes- terday denied Uh', 28, an injunction to void the draft boards order for him to report for induction.
 Uhl immediately reported at the armory but his attorney, Leonard B. Schmitt, said he would file B petition for a writ of habeas corpus to get him out today.
 Uhl sought to avoid conscription on grounds that his employment in @ shipyard was essential defense employment and therefore rated de- ferment.
 C0-Defendant
 The petition said induction would deprive Uhl of his liberty without due process of law, and named Fred Real, assistant director of industrial relations at the Bethlehem ship building Corp. for refusing to sign a form stating Uhl was necessary employe.
 Uhl went from the semi-pro lots of San Francisco to Chicago, the Detroit Tigers and last year to Beaumont in the Texas League as a pitcher. He has been employed as a shipf1tter'S helper at Bethlehem since October 1.

Salem, N. IT., Oct. LThe two year olds will be asked the vital question come Saturday at Rocking ham Park.
 They are scheduled to run mile and sixteenth for the first time in New England this year, and such qualities as stamina and courage and staying power will be tested over the gruelling distance course.
 There are at least two debutantes on the grounds who seem cut out for the distances, who seem destined to go on and become excellent three year olds in another year. One of them is Joseph Dobb's Chuckle, win ner of the Salem Stakes at the old Rocks summer meeting and blaz- ing young star in Maryland since then. Tn her most recent start, af- ter winning two races at Havre de Grace, she ran a fighting third to Colchis in the Richard Johnson Stakes, losing by length and a half to the crack gelding who raced . dead heat with Alsab, the two year old champion of the year.
 The other is R. S. Castles Coholga who, in seven starts, has won three races. She is a daughter of Cohort and Mint Olga, and the other day, in beating Begda and winning an allowance race here, she acted like 8 thoroughbred who could run all day and far into the night.

Coach Eddie Reilly of Bridgeport Central High school, is expected to bring a stalwart squad of footballers to Waterbury for first showing of the season Saturday afternoon against Crosby High array that has yet to win its first game. Hard practice this week has the club in good condition, though an injury tc Sopoholmore back, Mcdonald fur. ther set back Coach Bill Schofield's plans for the game. Fairfield Higt and Central played a scoreless tic last week, and the Reilly. team has been undefeated thus far in the sea. son. The game is scheduled for 2:ls p. m. and with Drumm, first game fullback who looked good against Norwalk, still on the injury list be- cause of knee trouble, Crosby's chances of winning are anything but rosy though the line play has remained good and the backs are beginning to get the idea 10 the game fundamentals. Hummell and McSherry, with D'Augustino are ex- pected to do most of the ball-carry- ing for Crosby.
 Good Game Looms
 Wilby's visit to Naugatuck should set the scene for a top notch game at Recreation field, Naugy, always tough to beat in the borough and with a natural ability for coming from behind, will face a Wilby back field that looks like the best Wildcat quartet in several seasons with Yarnell, Overton, Salvatore and Fitzgerald.
