Eastern limited the Johnnies to one
field goal and produced a rally that
presented Eastern its fourth cham
pionship, 22-2O. Eastern relin-
quished the crown in 1910. when
Roosevelt was a 1892 winner in
overtime.
Two years ago Gonzaga grasped
its only Metropolitan championship
by beating Roosevelt, 1926, and last
year Washington and Lee nipped
Bethesda Chevy Chase, 24-23. In
the last five years only once has the
championship team emerged from
the final with margin of more
than three points. In the last six
years six different schools have
won the title.

Western made a good game of it
against Tech for the first two
periods, but thereafter the Maroons
won going away. Tech gained an
8-6 lead going into the second per-
lod, but Ray Loves shot momentar-
lily gave Western a tie. Hank Pizza
broke this in Techs favor, and after
Dick Harlow of Western once more
knotted the count at 1910, Pizza
tailed to send the Maroons ahead
to stay. Their halftime margin was
20-15.
Lots of scoring took place in the
third frame, Tech registering II
points, including triple baskets by
Keither Harder and Bob Brewer.
Western marked up IL points by
doubles by Love and Lou Beatty.
Another pair of buckets each by
Love and Barlow helped Western
outscore Tech by 1919 in the last
period, but it wasn't enough to
threaten the Maroons' lead.

cialized training before they board
ship
1t takes approximately a year to
train an infantry regiment for the
| combat of today, owl explained.
This is divided into IA weeks of indi-
vidual training, II weeks of unit
training, II weeks of combined prac-
tive with other units and 8 to 10
weeks of field maneuvers.
While the armed forces try to fit a
mans civilian experience into his
military assignment, it was pointed
out, this is not always possible.
The Army for example, needs very
few teachers, and between Febru-
ary. 1912 and March, 1943, it was
getting about six teachers for every
thousand inductees. Thus teacher
had about one chance in hundred
Of using his previous training Dur
ing the same period the Army re-
ceived q sales clerks per thousand
inductees. 1t needs practically no
sales clerks. 1t also was getting a
number of lawyers and requiring
practically none.
Skilled Mechanics Needed.
But owl related, ut was get
ting cooks and needing IS, IA au-
tomobile mechanics and needing 18,
less than l airplane mechanic per
thousand and needing 80 or more"
The Army and Navy usually can
use any mechanical skill. But the
professional men, outside of medi-
cine ind dentistry, and the So
called white collar workers may
have to turn their abilities into diff
ferent channels.
In this connection, the Army has
found some interesting things.
For example, certified public ac-
countants have become excellent
mess sergeants-better, in many
cases, than men who have been club
stewards in civilian life. Musicians
have been repeatedly found to do
better at radio work in the Army
than some experienced radio hams
When an unusual number of
failures was reported by one Army
school for cooks, at which most of
the students had been cooks in
civilian life. it was found that these
men had been working as cooks
only because they could not get
other jobs they preferred. Now that
they were in the Army, they wanted
to come out of the kitchen and
become combat troops"

CurtaiIment Ordered
For Recreation Centers
In Montgomery

Curtailment of the recreational
program sponsored by the Maryland
National Capital Park and Planning
Commission in cooperation with the
Montgomery County Board of Edu-
cation, was announced yesterday by
Park Commissioner E. Brooke Lee.
Commissioner Lee said it has been
decided to discontinue activities at
the school recreation centers August
% and at the park and day-care
centers September 4. Originally, it
was planned to continue the project
through September II.
The change was made, he said,
because it was felt that the instruct
ors and their assistants, most of
whom are county school teachers
and college and high-school STU
dents, should have vacation before
returning to regular work on Sep
tember 49, The children also should
have rest, he said.

Poultry Black Market
In District Reported
'99 Pct. Eliminated

The poultry black market in the
District has been "99 per cent elm
mated" and fowls are now avail
able here at ceiling prices in fairly
good quantity, Joseph B. Danzansky
representative of the National In
dependent Poultry Council, said last
night.
At the same time survey indi-
Gated that beef supplies here, while
they soon may begin to dwindle
are still sufficient to meet the de-
mands of most consumers. Deal.
ers said they were a long way from
having enough beef to cash in
every ones ration stamps but that
the months long beef famine has
been definitely relieved in the last
two weeks.
The dealers pointed out, however
that most steaks now on the market
are tougher and more stringy than
usual, since the recent supply OF
beef has come largely from grass
fed cattle.
Recurring Shortages Forecast.
Mr.. Danzansky, who also repre-
sents the National Association OF
-Slaughtering Meat Professors
and Distributors, warned, mean
while, that recurring beef short
ages may be expected here. Sup
plies on the local market will begin
to diminish soon, due to a slacken-
ing in the movement of CRASHED
cattle to market, he predicted.
Poultry supplies probably are not
adequate to meet demand, Mr.. DAN
zansky said, but are beginning to
come into the District area I'm a
normal way"
Breaking OF the poultry black
market here has resulted from the
refusal of local dealers to pay above
ceiling prices to truckers and other
wholesalers, he said. He disclosed
that local dealers took this step
about a month ago, to cooperate
with the District once Of Price
Administration.
Army Action Called Big Factor.
According to the Poultry Council
representative, the recent action by
the Army in Communicating truck
loads OF poultry on the Eastern
Shore, and paying only ceiling
prices to the truckers, has also done
a great deal to discourage black
market poultry dealings here and
throughout the country.
Two District OPA off1cials-Chief
Attorney John L. Laskey and En-
forcement Attorney c. w. Berueffy-
have been largely responsible for
checking black market operations in
poultry in this region. Mr.. Danzan-
sky said. He praised both officials
for their enforcement work in the
District, and for increased enforce
ment of poultry ceilings in other
parts of the region which, he said,
was influenced by their insistence.
