Aberdeen tangles with Georgetown
University's undefeated freshmen
on the neutral American University
floor at 8:15 in what is merely an
other basket ball game, but If it
doesn't jam the joint and send the
customers home in heavy perspira-
ton the critics have been watching
the wrong teams.
Aberdeen Rich In Stars.
Aberdeen's record shows 10 vic
tories in 20 games, the lone defeat
coming in a game with Duquesne.
It's star studded lineup makes the
big dipper as pale as a 10-watt bulb
by comparison. 1t Is crew Of ex-
perienced and talented ex-collegians
who made indelible marks at their
respective halls Of learning and are
on their way to becoming one of the
most outstanding of several nation
ally prominent service quints.
Lou Romano, for example, hung
up a national scoring record at Glen
vile (W. Va.) Teachers College, but
got little recognition for it because
of the schools size. Joe Hetra played
regularly three years at Westminster
and appeared in a Madison Square
Garden tournament. Mark Haller
captained the Syracuse team last
year that handed Georgetown one
of its four defeats. Marty Passaglia
was a 3-year regular at Santa Clara
and Moe Becker was an all-America
at Duquesne with a New York tour
nament appearance to his credit.
Georgetown, with its Andy
Kostecka, the Matt Zunic Of fresh
man ranks, Billy Hassett, Ed LAWN,
Lloyd Pottolicchio and others, beats
the varsity at least twice week in
practice and has flashed unmis-
taxable signs of greatness in pre-
vious games. The young Hoyas'
only complaint thus far has been
lack of suitable competition, but
they'll have no beef on that score
tonight.

had before them for study during
the recess the 14-point program for
meeting the labor requirements Of
the war, presented by Sidney Hill
man, head of the labor division Of
the War Production Board, yester-
day.
The high light of the program was
q recommendation for establishment
of q national man-power board.
"Manpowered boards should,
among other things, promptly con-
slider the realistic and practical de-
termination of the military needs OF
the Army and Navy on the one hand,
and industrial needs on the other"
the Hillman report stated. This con-
sideration should include controls
necessary to prevent wastage of skillS
through voluntary enlistments in
the Army and Navy"
Mr.. Hillman had gone before
the committee to urge that control
over all Government agencies help
ing to train and provide workers for
industry should be centralized. but
emphasized that he did not mean
the separate cooperating agencies,
like N. Y. A., should be abolished.
He said the labor division of w. P. B.

members brought out the fact that

The other points deal mainly with
steps that should be taken by pro-
curement officers throughout the
Government to study the labor needs
In communities where contracts are
to be awarded. Other recommended
tions related to steps necessary to
get the maximum use out of trans
portation facilities in defense areas.
