Redskins
To BE Hot
For Bears
BY GRAHAM HoyEY
International News Service sports Writer

CHICAGO, Nov. 13.-Look for
the Washington Redskins to play
hard, inspired-but bonehead-
football Sunday when they clash
at Wrigley Field with the Chicago
Bears. who crushed them, 70 to 0,
last December s.
Science issued that prediction to-
day, right from room 5-B of the
psychology laboratory at the Uni
versity of Chicago. Although Presi-
dent Robert M. Hutchins declared
a moratorium on football at Chi
cago two years ago. he has issued
no order to date forbidding men,
bers of his psychology faculty from
prognosticating on the grid sport.
DR.. Dael Wolfe. cheerful young
professor whose knowledge of foot
ball was surprising. acted as
spokesman for the psychology de-
partment on the all-importan Red
skin-Bear matter. He seemed TO
enjoy it.
THEY'LL BE BURNING
at Is almost certain that the
Redskins will take the field Sun
day with a burning determine
ton to make up for the disgrace
of last year." said Doctor Wolfe,
in much the same manner that
Coach George Halas might adj
dress his Bear squad. THE re-
venge motive can he n powerful
one, you know.
But IL would he my guess
that the desire for revenge In
this case might be too powerful.
1t might prove to be more HARM
full than good for the Redskin
cause. Up to a certain point,
such factor would have the ef-
feet Of keying q team for Its
best game. When the desire Is
too strong, however, the keyjng-
up business might be overdone,
leaving the players In a frenzy
which, ] imagine, would not al
low them to play top-fiight foot
ball.
Hence. I would guess that
the Redskin play will be hard
and inspired, but probably not
too smart!
BEARS ATTITUDE TO TELL
1.-THE Bears? Well. that will
depend on the attitude with
which they recall that game last
December. II they realize that
it was just one of those after
moons when they could do no
wrong and the Redskins could
do nothing right--if, they re-
member that previously the
Redskins had beaten them, they
probably will enter the game In
proper frame of mind.
"On the other hand. II that
IS to O score gave the Bears the
impression that they actually
are superior to the Redskins by
about that margin-well, they
might run into rough sailing
Sunday.
at would seem. however, that
any tendency the Bears might
have had to take an opponent
lightly would have been dis
sipated by that Is to IL loss to
the Green Bay Packers two
weeks ago.
Another thing-the Bears
have q lot OF good freshmen
this year, you know. These new
boys, although they read about
that IS to O game, did not
actually participate In II, and
hence are not apt to under
estimate the Washington team.
"Of course, these are just my
guesses, you know. Probably
aren't any better than those of
any one else"
Thank you very much, pro-
fessor. 1t looks like the Bears by
q touchdown or two. doesn't IL?

Bill Asks Pay Increase
For School Custodians

A pay raise for the $50 custodial
workers in the Districts public
schools was proposed in bill Of
fered in the Senate late yesterday
by Senator LANCER. Republican, of
North Dakota. to keep the force from
being depleted by better oppor-
tunities in other lines.
The bill asks for increases of one
third in present pay rates, as fol-
lows: About $50 employees, from
81 ,080 to s1440; 110 others, from
$1,000 to $l,600; l54 from $3.50 to
81, ,760: 81 from 81 500 to $1,000 and
103 from 81 $50 to $2,240.
Senator LANCER said the men who
run the heating plants and supervise
the care of school buildings are be-
ing attracted by other jobs, and his
purpose is to avoid a shortage in
the school force, or the necessity of
employing less competent custodians.
The bill was referred TO the District
Committee for study.

VICHY, Unoccupied France, Sept.
5.-The French announced today an
official protest to Washington
against what was described as a
Lying campaign" in the United
States press against CASTOR Henry
Haye, Vichy's Ambassador to Wash
ington, and members of his embassy.
The official announcement, which
cited the New York Herald Tribune
particularly, said the alleged cam
paign, coming after the appeal
addressed by Marshal Petain to the
American press asking it to show
more understanding in regard to
France, was felt with particular sad
ness in France
The text of the announcement:
For several days certain Amer
ican newspapers have been carrying
out violent attacks against our en-
bassy at Washington.
The New York Herald Tribune
has been particularly prominent in
this campaign directed against even
M. Henry -Haye and certain men,
bers of his colleagues, accusing these
latter of activity directed against
the interests of the United States.
Coming after the appeal recently
addressed by Marshal Petain to the
American press asking them to show
more understanding to France, these
attacks have been felt with par
ticular sadness in France.
The French government has pro-
tested to the American government
against this lying campaign against

Construction of Facilities.
The big job which may now re-
tard full utilization of tank cars is
the construction of loading and un-
loading facilities, experts said today.
When a long train of oil cars pulls
up to a refinery which previously
mas been receiving its petroleum by
water, there must be a track for
the cars to stand on, and an unload
ing rack-perhaps a mile long-to
pump out the oil.
In some cases several weeks will
be consumed in building these
facilities. 1t is considered fortunate
that winter is not here to hamper
the job. In cold weather crude oil
must be heated with special equip
ment before it can be unloaded.
There will be ample time to install
such heating apparatus before it is
| needed, 1t was said. Gasoline flows
freely at all times. so there will be
little difficulty in dealing with it.
While railroad companies were
planning today to dig long-unused
engines, tenders and other equip
ment out from under the white
