ROBY, Tex, Oct. 13.-The Rev.
c. w. Parmenter, who combines
Coaching with preaching, is do
ing all right at both.
The 50-year- -old Methodist
minister took over the Roby
High School football team this
year when coach could not be
obtained. He never had coached
before-in fact. never had played
the game. But he wanted the
boys to have their football; be-
sides, he liked a good scrap.
He went to the Texas Coaching
School, studied the T formation
and decided he would use that at
Roby, although his team was
green and light.
First concern was some equip
ment. He arranged a program
that netted $285 as a starter.
Now he finds the season will
cost him at least s1oO of his own
money. He gets nothing for
coaching and teaches four hours
day in the school.
Roby has played four games,
winning the first, 60, and playing
to a scoreless tie in each of the
others. So Roby not only is un-
beaten, but unscored on. and one
opponent boasted a 1S0-pound

Tough on Office, Too

Meanwhile, fellows in the Office

writer must blush violently when
picking up his pay on Tuesday.
Already the same Davis" has been
fitted into headline, the form has
been locked and is being wheeled to
the stereotype room when over the
wire comes, Make it Pat Preston,
not Davis, who blocked that kick
and fell on it for a touchdown"
Covering a college football game
Is the most complicated and confus-
ing sports assignment Paul Calico,
for our money the best sports writer
ever to tap a typewriter, once told
of covering game he never saw.
He was in the press box at Niche
Stadium to view an Army game, but
on every play the cadet corps in
front of him rose to its feet, blocking
the view.
Covering professional game Is
easy. The numerals on uniforms are
large enough to see a block away,
which usually is the distance from
the field to the press box. You're
familiar with the players and even
when they switch a torn jersey for
another with a different number at
halftime, as happens frequently. you
recognize the player.

identity of Hoya who blocked a

depend on a spotter who called it

ride, too. Two weeks ago at Mary

piling statistics handed reporters q

Maryland-56" When informed
Maryland had gained 81 yards on
one pass play alone his interesting
comment was, Gee, I guess those
figures are wrong"
Worst Press Box Here
BY all odds the worst football
press box in the United States is the
fiimsy affair at Griffith Stadium.
The only method of reaching your
seat is to climb over the protesting
torsos of other writer's who reached
their places in the same manner.
There is no aisle
There is an alternative providing
you've been assigned a front row seat.
In that event you may pull yourself
over tremendous barrier, probably
kicking a last row customer on the
head en- route. That's a method of
exit, too, but it hasn't been used
much since two years ago Rocky
Riley, former sports editor of the
News, lost his footing and bounced
down 10 rows.
The press box at Baltimores Mu-
nicipal Stadium seems at least 10
miles from the field. On a rainy
day you wish you were covering six
other games instead because mud
covered uniforms eliminate all DOS
sloillty OF accurate reporting.
There are better places from which
10 watch a game than the Polo
Grounds press box. It's atop the
roof. which gives you a feeling YOU
might have written a more authori-
tatlve story by remaining in the
hotel room and listening to the radio
account.
A football press box can be. and
usually Is, the acme of confusion.
Sportcaster Bill Stern is acouaint-
ed with the difficulties OF covering

Alaska Statehood Bill
Introduced by Dimond;
Requirements Given

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-Alaska
Delegate Anthony j. Dimond pro-
posed that Alaska be granted state
hood with all privileges enjoyed by
other states of the union, and has
introduced bill for the admission
of the Territory as a state and
the transfer to the state of all pub
lie property and vacant and un-
appriated lands.
The bill requires that after its
enactment the Governor of the Ter
ritory call a constitutional conven-
ton of eight delegates to be elected
from the First Judicial District,
four from the Second, eight from
the Third, five from the Fourth,
and one from the Territory at large,
to be elected as are members Of
the Legislature.
The convention is to draw up a
constitution, necessary routine
for the Territory to become state.
The constitution will have to be
ratified by the people of the Ter
ritory and at the same time the
electorate will cast ballots on the
adoption of the constitution.
They will vote in on Representa- :
tive, two Senators, a Governor and
full complement of state officials.
After the elections, the Governor
is required to certify tile results to
the President who then is required
to issue a proclamation that the
State of Alaska is admitted into the
Union.
Delegate Dimond said he believed
the change from territorial status
to statehood would increase the
cost of government by two million
dollars to total of four million
dollars, and said he believed the
main objection to giving Alaska
statehood would come from vested
interests"
