Columbus, O., Nov.State
Welfare Director Herbert r.
Mooney requested the aid Of
Ohio universities and colleges
in meeting q serious personnel
shortage existing in the ad-
ministration Of various social
service programs throughout
the State.
In a letter to Ohio college
authorities, the welfare direc-
tor said:
During the present man
power shortage, the Depart
ment Of Public Welfare is op-
Grating under most serious
difficulties in the loss of per-
sonnel and unless we can in
terest young people in college
in turning their attention to
social welfare work, it is diff
cult to see how replacements
are to be made either pres
emily or after the war.
Mr.. Mooney pointed out
that while present war en-
ployment has made deep in
roads iia.the states relief pro-
gram, favorable employment
conditions have not substan-
tally affected other perna-
nent social service programs
such as aid for the aged, aid
to dependent children and the
needy blind, and child welfare
ervices. In these latter pro-
grams, he said, there is q need
for qualified workers on a
state and county level.

After playing one of the best basketb teams ever to appear here, the West Point out- fit with Garfnkle, Tough, Oppef. etc, and having little over one hundred people in the audience, may have been @ little quick and to the point with answers to our morning after rooters.'
 The West Point Five played a typical pro-type game, moving the ball with a minimum of fOOrworks setting up pick-offs and long shots, and at times slipping in fast break. Dutch Garfnkle of the Philadelphia Sphas in the Amer iean League, sparked the Points" floor game, handling the ball like a ''hot potato and setting up play after play. "Red'' Tough gave a fine exhibition of long shooting, while Bernie Opper handled the scoring end of most of Garfnkle's passes.

AS sports writer for many papers and as an announcer at the local radio station, Gort has become well known to most of the people of the Boat Company and New London.

Army Drills
 ,Diesels, 64-54

A good war machine doubled in brass and also played the part of a smooth operating hoop club, as West Point Armored Force, paced by Red Tough and Bernie Opper, former collegiate greats, ground out a 64-54 win over the Diesels at Bulke1ey Gym. Leading the Boat parade as usual, were the number one forward and guard in the state. Bob Callahan, and George Petrovich. Nick Shaback is missed more every game.
 Before the game, Joe Brennan, co1orfu1 hard playing gridiron guard, made known the fact that the Brooklyn Dodgers are interest ed in his football ability and made this fact on the double emphasis by sending Joe letter. Our best wishes are extended.

 This years club didn't have the crunching tanker plays or the power bucks of last years gang. Surely Wallace and Sarkkinen to- gether couldn't make up for the loss of Fitch. He was by far the greatest end this section has ever seen and maybe ever will see. The class that was met on the fields of friendly strife" during the past season was inferior to other years. In the two opening games it was almost a farce. as far as football was concerned. The Elm Street Tigers could have played better bali than either the New Bedford Whalers or Fall Riv- CT.

Most Undefeated Athlete

The owner of the above title doesn't mind being underestimated in the least, all he wants is to be allowed to play. It doesn't make any difference what the sport may be, just give him a hand in it. If there is any money to be had, he wants and demands his full share,
 but he'll play just as hard for nothing. It wouldn't do to say Joe Brennan is underestimated, but rather that he is taken for
 granted" Joe is the aggressive, hard-working type who is always in the middle of the action-just where you expect him to be. It took an outsider to really appre- ciate Pennsylvania Joe, hence the recent offer to join the Brooklyn Dodgers Professional Football Club. Joe hasn't accepted or rejected the chance as yet, but the offer in itself is proof of his outstanding ability on the football field. A three-sports man while in high school near Wilkes-Barre, Pa, Joe
 hasn't done much on the baseball diamond since coming to E.B. ex- cept for a few games with the TrojanS. His main interest has been football, but he also gives a good account of himself on the bas-
 ketball court, excelling as passer
 and on defense.

VANISHING TIARA
CHAPTER XVI
By EDWIN RUTT

Within the Charming house
there was now a sound OF revel-
ry by night. Soft music filtered
through The open windows.
Bright evening gowns swished
and rustled. The black and
white of dinner jackets and boil
ed shirts were sharp silhouettes.
MIR. H. l.. Channings version OF
a victory ball was in full swing.
On the fringes of the festivi-
ties lowered Miss Meath. Miss
Meath had made herself very
useful in the preparations for
the party. No detail had been
too small to escape her attention.
Voluntarily, and with spir-
it that bespoke undying devotion
TO her employer, she had at
tended to everything.
At the moment Miss Meath
was lowering unobtrusively, in
the semi-darkened dining room.
Here a great feast was in read
mess. Tables and sideboards
groaned under comestibles that
would have brought a tear to
the eye of Lucullus. But, as
Meath slipped past the huge

But she did him the honor of

Left alone again, Joe the
Cracker was loath to return TO
the rhododcndrons. He had al
most two hours to wait, and with
all this magnificence around
him, he saw no reason to put
them in sitting amid deW-soaked
foliage.
AS a preliminary step in solv-
ing the housing problem, he
drew forth a bottle. Entirely
counter to Miss Meath's injunc-
tons, the Cracker had provided
himself with this bottle against
his lonely vigil. Now, shivering,
he blessed MS foresight. He tilt
ed the bottle and took a Hercu-
lean drink.

False Evidence
Laid TO Expert in

Defense Chief Hints
American Made Up
Prints OF Accused
Ry JAMES L. KILGALLEN

NASSAU. Oct. 30 QNS)-An
open charge of introducing fab
ricated evidence" in a desire for
personal gain and notoriety" was
hurled against Capt. James
Barker today by Godfrey Higgs,
chief attorney defending Count
Alfred de Marigny on charges of
murder.
Riggs, who throughout the
opening stages Of today's session
hammered at the testimony of the
American fingerprint expert, sud
denly swung toward him and
made his accusation.
Indignantly, Barker declared:
II deny that"
Only a few minutes before.
Higgs had implied that Barker
had participated in a "fingerprint
frameup" directed against De
Marigny, who is charged with the
murder of his father-in-law.
Under questioning, Barker de-
MED vehemently that he and Capt.
Edward S. Melchen, head of the
Miami homicide bureau, had de-
liberately planned to get De Ma
rigny up to the room in which
Sir Harry Cakes had been blud-
geoned and burned to death so as
to get the counts fingerprint on a
bedscreen.
Then suggest you and
Melchen deliberately planned to
get the accused alone to get his
fingerprint," Higgs declared
loudly.
That's not true" Barker re-
torted hotly.
