Knows Tricks of New Job

Nothing has happened. He ignores
the officials work, talks quitely to
his players and calmly makes sub
stitutions. The same goes for his
diminutive sidekick, Dave Keppel,
who teamed with Shirley as an
official anG now carries on as his
assistant coach. On one or two
occasions Dave has grown red about
the collar and has started to sputter
something about this or that de-
Clsion, but a little nudge from
Shirley's elbow has quieted him.
Shirley knew the folk would be
watching him to break loose from
the bench and he's made it a point
to disappoint them.
AS he was good as a referee, Shir-
ley, too, is making good in a big
way as a coach. His Eastern High
team is rated one of the best, if
not the best, among the towns
schools right now. The Ramblers
have won seven games while drop
ping two, and since they have de-
feated the two teams that beat them
Dallas started the season with the
aplomb of an old hand at the
coaching game. Sports writers who
interviewed him on prospects of his
team got the same indefinite an
swers they get from any of the boys
who have been around long time.
All about how they would be in
there fighting; prospects were fair
although there were not many letter
men returning: If we get the breaks
we'll 60 places; on the other hand
all We can hope to do is to give
some of the other teams run for
their money, etc. It's the kind of
stuff that fits any sort of team be-
fore the season opens and which
still looks good at the end no matter
what happened.

Cox Says F|y's Blast
Won't Alter Course
OF Probe Of FEC

Chairman Cox of a special House
committee investigating the Federal
Communications Commission was
prepared today to 60 ahead with the
inquiry despite a bitter blast issued
by FEC Chairman James L. Fly, in
which he charged the committee
with Joining with the military, the
radio monopoly and Wall Street in
terests" in a move to wreck the
commission.
IF the first hearing has
thrown Mr. Fly into such a state
of hysterical wrath. what will be his
condition after this inquiry has
really gotten under way?" Mr. Cox
asked in a statement issued last
night.
"As to the attack of Mr.. Fly upon
the select committee of the House
of Representatives, now investigat-
ing the commission, the committee
has no statement to make" Mr.. Cox
said The committee does not
mean to be drawn away from the
constructive job it has undertaken" :"
Reports Cited.
The text of Mr.. Coxs statement
follows, in part:
Mr.. Fly's attack upon the mill
tary and naval departments for OBJ
jecting to his attempt to take over
the responsibilities of war activities
cannot be ignored The joint chiefs
of staffs of the Army and Navy,
the chief of staff to the commander
in chief of the Army and Navy, the
Secretary of War and the Secre-
tary of Navy say they have found
that the operations of Mr.. Fly's
commission constitute an interfer-
ence with the war effort and a
threat to the Nations security. If
this be true then all possible effort
must be made to stop this action.
Charges Disservice.
The fathers and the mothers of
the boys and the girls fighting this
war, the wives and sweethearts of
the soldiers and sailors and the men
of the armed forces themselves are
looking to our military authorities
to direct the winning of the war in
the shortest possible time and with
the least possible loss of lives
Even Mr.. Fly owes a service to
the Nation rather than the dis
service of trying to destroy the
confidence of the soldier in his
commanders by charging them with
conspiring to destroy the FEC. This
