WARMIN' THE BENCH
by Sgt. Frank de Blois CNS Sports Correspondent

Thing
 Football is a funny game. On Saturday morning you are hailed as the coach of the year with a wonder team on your hands and whaddaya think happens on Satur- day night? You're a fake and a phony with bunch of buns in your stable. You can make mine croquet.
 The Chicago Bears, who set all kinds of records against the New York Giants a couple of weeks ago, were punched all over the ball yard by the Washington Redskins the following Sunday. And the Skins lost to a lot of characters called the Phil-Pitt Steagles the week af- ter that.
 How about that? And how about Notre Dame? There was team for you. They beat Georgia Tech, Michigan, Army, Navy, Northwest ern and the powerful Iowa Sea- hawks. And then-while all the ex- perts sat around with their eyes hanging down to their knees-the invincible Irish lost one.
 Heroes of this number one upset of the season were eleven men who play football for the Great Lakes Naval Training Station in Illinois. They beat a Notre Dame team that had been compared with Knute Rockne's best when Steve Lach, formerly of Duke, pitched a 41- yard-forward pass to his quarter back with 30 seconds left in the ball game. If you gave script like that to Sam Goldwyn he would think you were nuts.
 Notre Dame's defeat stripped the team of it's cloak of invincibillty but failed to dim the teams aura of greatness. The Irish ended their season with an average rushing gain of 313.9 yards a game to bet ter a national record established in 1887. Coach Frank Leahy's 1943 eleven was the greatest powerhouse in Notre Dame history. Even when they lost they looked good.
 Undimmed too, were the bright, particular stars of this much-pub- licized team. Angelo Bertelli, foot ball player of the year and Heisman award winner for 1943, wasn't around at the Great Lakes lamp ooning, having been transferred to the Paris Island (S. O. Marine training base some time ago, but his replacement, Johnny Lujack was there and he looked all right working out of the T. All Ameri- can Halfback Creighton Miller looked good, too, and so did All American End John Yoniker, All American Guard Pat F'illey and All American Tackle Jim White. In fact, they all looked so good that you wouldn't think they had lost the game unless you happened to take a quick gander at the score board.
 The game was thriller, Notre Dame led 70 at halftime. Then Great Lakes pulled ahead 12-7 and in the last period the Irish nosed in front 14-12. The Sailors won 19- IA on Lach's pay-off pass, which Paul Anderson caught on the five-yeard line.
 Great Lakes triumph was the first for the Bluejackets over Notre Dame. The Sailors tied the Irish, 2 to 2, during the last war and played a 13 to 13 draw with Leahy's team last year. The Blue jackets 1943 record was 10 victor ies and two defeats, which should give them the national service team championship for the second con- secative year.
 Yes, a funny game, indeed, is football. Bring on my wicket and mallet.

MOUNTBATTEN AND
BURMA CAMPAIGN
Clos Angeles Times)

(L0S Angeles 1lmeS)
Loss by the Chinese of the ricc-bowl
city of Changteh, which the Japs have
been beSieging in a Seesaw battle more
than two weeks, is a serious blow to the
Chinese cause. Changteh is the gateway
to all Human province and to its capital
city of Changsha. 1t is true the Japs
have previously attacked Changsha twice,
only to be driven out with heavy losses,
and Human Province has thus for them
teen extremely unlucky. But there is
no guarantee that it will be SO again;
and if the Japs can hold Human, there
may be much more serious shortage OF
food in the area controlled by Chang
Kai-shek than already exists.
Where is Lord Mountbatten and his
campaign into Burma? At the time of
Mountbatten's appointment it was pre-
dicted that hammer-and-tongs drive to
free the Burma Road would begin as
soon as weather conditions permitted
The monsoon rains were over on sched-
ue about the first of October; two
months have passed with no other activ-
ity than the Chinese-American push to
open the Ledo Road, and routine bomb
ing of Jap Burma bases. OF the naval
activity in the Bay of Bengal which was
promised there has been no sign
This Burma campaign would have been
a diversionary effort which might easily
have saved Changteh, and if it succeeded
in its object would have made the Chi
nese less dependent on Human. There is
possibly no direct connection between
fighting in central China and that in
Burma, which is far removed, except that
the Japs must supply both from the
same central reservoir, but this is an
important consideration since the Jap
supply system might prove inadequate
for both campaigns. The only diver
sion to which the Japs are being subject
ed is that provided by Gen. Macarthur
and Admiral Halsey in the south and
Admiral Nimitz in the south-center
If Mountbatten does not soon get going
the monsoon season will be on again. If
China were eliminated as belligerent
it would be a catastrophe.

Rolling Mill
Men Strike:
Tie up Plant

PITTSBURGH, Dec. IL. tUP) -
Strikes affecting 5000 workers Sat
urday paralyzed war production in
the American Rolling Mill Corp.
plant at Butler, Pa. and in the
Crucible Steel co. plant in the
Lawrenceville district.
Harry Holiday, manager of the
Armco plant. said the strike there,
involving 5000 workers, constituted
an attempt by the CIO United
Steelworkers of America to force
the company to recognize is at bar
gaining representative.
The strike at the crucible plant,
which began Friday night along
scarfers, clippers and grinders, was
blamed by Joseph A. Goney, sub
regional director of the steelwork-
ers, on war labor board delay in
settling grievances.
Stanley Browning, steel union
official, denied responsibility for the
Armco walkout, asserting that the
men struck as individuals.

CANOl A FUMBLE?
(Christian Science Monitor)

Much remains to be learned about the
Canol project before final judgment is
passed. AT present, it looks like tumble
on the part of the Army, and costly
one, $50, $1,000, but not one that Will
lose the ball game.
The North is a fabulous land, and
rich one. It's potentiaities as route
for air travel are well portrayed on the
maps. Few men know its mysteries bet
ter than With hjalmur Stefansson.
When it was reported that Stefansson
had suggested and outlined the Canol
project as means for supplying useful
gasoline and oil for the military planes
based in Alaska, many people felt that
at least the Army had en- joyed good ad-
vice in it's undertaking. Mr. Stefansson
himself, however, now states that while
he suggested a general plan for oil devel-
opment along the Mackenzie River Val
ley in Canada, he had consistently oppos-
ed the specific Canol project because 1t
entails road and pipeline over noun
the refineries should be located in Alas
ka rather than in Canada.
For the money spent, observes Mr.
Stefansson the Army should now be re-
ceiving some $4,000 barrels of oil day
instead of the 5000 Canol is producing.
That is one succinct commentary on the
Canol project and spending. Secretary
Ickes' assertions that a few tankers, or
barges, could have supplied just as much
oil to Alaska at a much smaller cost is
another. But, of course, it will remain
for events, and for the development of
postwar aviation, and of the Northands
themselves. to unfold the true place OF
Canol in history.

NO NEED FOR
THIRD PARTY

Announcement of Paul Oyster earst-
while candidate for the United States
senate on the Prohibition ticket, that
he is attempting to organize third par
ty, its main tenet being opposition to
internationalism, may or may not STIR
interest 1t should get nowhere.
This country does not need or require
third party to guide it out of the pres
ent tangled conditions or to guide it in
the future No doubt the move will end
as have many other such attempts. Third
parties may be conceived and be organiz-
ed in the heart of major party con-
vention, such as Teddy Roosevelts Bull
Moosers That this might happen next
year when the Democrats convene is not
at all unlikely. Indeed, it is brewing
now Senator Cotton Ed) Smith ram
paging South Carolina democrat openly
has declared for just that move now and
picks Senator Byrd as its 1914 candi
date. Lots of political water will go over
the dam before next June, and no one
can predict what will happen.
But the need for third party is plain
nil as far as principles are concerned,
Oyster offers nothing new nor does he
offer anything that either or both the
major parties could not handle il the
leaders will get down to cases and keep,
their parties alive to the needs of the
country and the world, and go on repre-
senting that basic principle of two
party government which is the balance
wheel for this democracy.

PREDICTION WHEN

ences among the allied leaders. backed
by definite knowledge that far-reaching
campaigns have been outlined at these

will end
= Generally the flare-up of overcOn-

the contrary there is the belief that it
. may take a long time Notwithstanding
that the allied war machinery ready for
battle is piling up at an amazing rate.

Gen. Eisenhower,
Roosevelt Meet

the combined British American
staffS.'
This statement aroused interest
here because it had been generally
accepted that grand Mediterranean
strategy" was determined at the
time of the American invasion of
North Africa. The statement, there
fore, may have been a guarded
reference to plans for new opera
tons in the Mediterranean area.
While in Carthage, Mr.. Roose-
welt lived in large villa facing the
sea and Cape Bon where German
resistance in Africa ended late last
spring. The villa, which was known
as the White House" before it was
used by the resident, stood amid
the ruins of the ancient city which
was so prominent in early Roman
history.
In talking with Eisenhower at
Carthage, Mr.. Roosevelt, according
to the dispatch, constructed a
final and complete picture" for the
Allied command "of the myriad de-
taIc agreed upon by the joint staff
to make possible execution of the
new overall strategy"
This was the third meeting in

Mr.. RooSevelt's stop at Tunis and
Carthage chmaxed a tour by the

The play in todays hand is one
have spoken about again and
again, because whenever it comes up
in tournament, see a number of
players miss it. But first, just one
word about the bidding on todays
hand. Many players let four aces
influence them too much. Over
North's bid of one spade, South
should bid either one no trump or
two clubs. He had to find a lot of
things In North's hand to help him
make his contract.
Declarer won the opening lead
with the heart ace. Now here Is
the play-with a five-card dia-
mond suit to the king queen-nine
and four to the ace, should the
ace be led? Or should the lead
come from the hand containing
two honors? The correct play is
the ace.
If the diamonds are split three
one, it doesn't make any differ
ence which way it is played. If
the four diamonds are in the East
hand, at least one trick must be
lost. But If the four diamonds are
n the West hand, as they are in
his one, the lead of the ace allows
lhe declarer to finesse West out Of
Ill his diamonds and make five
siamond tricks. Then the declarer
mad only to win either the spade

Beauties Hints
Use Model Tricks
To Keep Hair-Do
Neat Attractive
BY ALICIA HART
NEA Staff Writer

Does your carefully dressed colt
tumble or go blurry an hour Or so
after you put it up? Then try these
professional tricks that models use.
When you plan Golf, indulge
hair in its idiosyncrasies. 1t has a
natural part-sometimes slanting
and sometimes straight. Give in to
it. If hair doesn't swirl naturally at
the crown, settle for whatever line
it takes at this starting-off point.
When you put up your hair, nail
it down with enough pins. Too few
studded here and there, in the hope
that they'll hold, is another reason
why hair tugs loose. If it lacks
body" tease it bit to give it
more substance, by running your
comb through your hair the wrong
way.
To keep bury outlines clearly
etched, go over your Golf after you
dress it with touches of lacquer.
To preserve the handbook look, even
through wear and tear, carry with
you some self-saturated lacquer
pads. One or two, stored in your
compact, will take care of repairs.
