Crosby Swimmers
Much The Best In
Yale Interscholastics

Any doubt that Crosby High
school sponsors the best swimming
squad in the State of Connecticut,
despite the loss of the league cham
pionship by two disqua.ifications,
were completely dispelled Saturday
at the Payne Whitney pool OF Yale
University, where Crosby swimmers
COPIED five individual champion
ships in min events, while the best
Hartford Public could do, was three
state titles, though its Bob Kuipan-
owski had the distinction of being
the only double winner of the day,
outSwimming all opposition in the
220 free style and the 100 yard
dash, defeating Crosby's Dick Nc
Cleary in the latter event, which
he swan in 0:57:3.
Showing that its members could
team up for q victory, as well as
win individual championships, the
Crosby medley-relay team Of Paul
Lux, Vic Romanauskas, and Tony
Lombard took that event, ahead Of
Bassick, the league champions from
Hartford Public finishing no better
than third.

Sees Nation
Deprived Of
Alien SkilIs

New York (JPS)-The barriers
erected against loyal aliens who
are eager to serve the United
States are depriving the nation of
skills needed for the war program,
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt de-
clared here at the annual confer
ence of the National Council on
Naturalization and Citizenship.
Saying that there are friendly
aliens who wanted to do some
thing in civilian defense or work
for the Red Cross" but were re-
jected because they were mot
citizens" Mrs. Roosevelt decried
the practice. IF they are anxious
to serve it seems a terrible waste
not to use them," she said. "a
great problem we must face is
that of what real equality in citi-
zenship means.
Recently the Council of Jewish
Women was compelled to revice
its refugee training program for
the Red Cross because Of the re-
strictions to which Mrs. Roosevelt
took exception.

FEATHER OF
Social Security"
Is MOurned

New York (JPS)-Known as
"the father of social security"
Abraham Epstein, who a few
weeks ago marked his 5Oth birth
day, died here of pneumonia after
a weeks illness. Born in Russia
in 1892, he came to America as a
boy. Educated at the University
of Pittsburgh and Columbia, he
early interested himself in legisla-
ton for social security. A fear
less investigator, he insisted on
economic soundness for his social
reforms. It was not until the New
Deal came into office that he saw
MANY of his advanced ideas on re-
lief for the aged and the unem-
ployed being incorporated into
law. His various books on social
security were regarded as source
material for sound social security
legislation. At the time of his
death he was Executive Secretary
of the Association for Social Sc
curity.
