An EorfuI of Oddities
 From World of Sports

On New Years day @ strong u1l- derdog Alabama combine beat the strong and once defeated Boston College array before a crowd of 3O,OOO strong in the Orange Bowl in Mi- ami. The men of the hour come up in the quartet of August, Nose lev. Craft, and Joe Domnanovich, "Pama's" All American. They turned Q victory into a defeat for Boston College in the last half, by using one swell formula (they call 1t strategy).
 The final score was Alabama S7, Boston College 21.
 Texas IA; Georgia Tech
 On the first day of the New Year a crowd of 36,000 Cotton Bowl root CTS saw the powerful "Longhorn" team from Texas roll over the fay- ored "Cornbread" team from Geor- gia. While in New York as well as all over the country most of those unwise "Bigtime Speculators" were paying off at the rate of IA to z, tor 2 to D. The final score was IA to T, (you can weep all you want to now). .. PetrinO Winks and a Court Fan
 Thinks
 During the Tech vs Wiloy game at the Wilby gym the other night Charlie Petrino, that very able court official from Bridgeport was doing his utmost to be very sociable with everybody. Suddenly an over anxious fan pipes up: Among the teams you have seen so far this season, which one do you like the best? The referee just shook his head.
 The fan said, How do you like Wilby?" The referee smiled and answered, Pretty good" How about Tech?" "Well, they look pretty good, tco." Then the ian who was a very loyal Crosbyite piped up: How about Crosby? The referee just looked at him and winked. The fan scratched his head, and the game went on.

BOSTON SHORTAGE
 MADE LESS ACUTE
Million Gallons of Kerosene Temporarily Relieves
 Range Oil Problem

Boston, Jan. S.-(UP)-The acute range oil shortage in greater Bos- ton was temporarily relieved today as the result of the arrival and re. release of an emergency supply totaling 100000 gallons of kero- sene.
 Petroleum Cordinator Harold L. Ickes ordered the release of a special reserve stock of 100000 gal- Ions and shipment of 100000 gal- Ions arrived from New York yes- terday. This extra fuel took care of immediate needs and allowed some householders to obtain @ slight re- serve.
 However, the amount was said to be about one days supply and of- ficials warned that the regular daily shipments were not sufficient tc care for needs.
 A new avenue of transportation shipping range oil in drums by box car-was expected to give the area an extra 357,5OO gallons aday, but the first shipment was not due fol a week or 10 days.
 Though the situation eased slight ly in the Boston area, it still wa! critical in industrial cities such al New E--.sord and Brockton.
 Officials meanwhile struggled tc solve the less pressing but equally important problem of heavy fuel oil: and Coy. J. Howard McGrath oi Rhode Island indicated he might order non-eSsential establishment. to close on Mondays.
 Several war plants in Rhode Island have been forced to close fol short periods during the past two months because of lack of fuel and the governor believed his proposed action might prevent the closing ot schools and industries.
 Three schools in Massachusetts two in Lynn and one in Natick-- already have closed to save fuel and their pupils were distributed among other schools. Several Wells, Me, schools were scheduled to close from Jan. II to Feb. 9.
 Mayor Maurice J. Tobin of Bos- ton, acting to save oil, announced city hall would be closed on Sat- urdays and that no lights or elevator service would be available after 6 p. m. daily. He said all such service would be halted because the building obtains its power through the use of fuel oil.
 Gov. J. Howard McGrath has sug- gested that all non-war industries operate on a five day week basis as 8 means of conserving fuel oil.
 He announced yesterday that he was considering a plan to close such establishments on Mondays as well as Sundays. Places of amuse- ment, however, would be allowed to operate on those days and close for two days later in the week when workers had returned to their jobs
