BY the Associated Press

BY tne associated Press.
The Federal Trade Commission
yesterday announced a complaint
charging Celanese Corp. of America
with failing adequately to disclose
to the purchasing public that the
yarns and fabrics it manufactures
and sells under the name 'celanese
are acetate rayon products and are
not composed of silk or wool, which
they resemble in texture and ap-
pearance."
The commission said Celanese
Corp, in advertisements, stated that
under a current ruling of the
Federal Trade Commission, celanese
yarns and fabrics are classified as
rayon.". The F'TC said the products
"are properly described as rayon, not
because of any ruling of the COM
mission, current or otherwise, but
because of the materials from which,
and the process by which such yarns
and fabrics are manufactured"
The corporation, which has head

in which to file an answer.

football isn't sure whether it can
even get to the post next fall, but
It's going right ahead with plans
to hold as reasonable a facsimile
of spring training as possible.
While disappointed and somewhat
surprised over the Army's rule for
bidding its soldier-students to par
ticipate in intercollegiate athletics,
survey by the Associated Press
today showed most major American
colleges intend to play football as
long as they can field II men on
a side and get man to blow a
whistle.
However, little Canisus College, in
Buffalo, N. Y. announced tonight it
was giving up intercollegiate foot
ball for the duration, and attributed
its decision to Col Herman Beuke-
ma s decision.
The squads will be much smaller
and many of them will be COM
posed largely of 17-year- r-old boys
but it is with these recent high
school graduates and men who dc
not come under the Army ban
that the colleges are planning to

no spring football practice was be-

sessions will be held in the sum-
mer, however, if conditions permit
