Riders Must Defeat
Tech 10 Land Spot
In Title PIayoff
BY GEORGE HUBER.

Coolidge has lock on first place
in the high school football cham
pionShip round-robin series after
trimming Roosevelt last night at
Griffith Stadium, 800, but second
place still Is up in tie air with Will
son, Eastern, Western and Tech re-
tanning mathematical chances OF
edging out the Rough Riders. Indi-
cations are that Roosevelt still will
be there at the end and get another
crack at the Colts in the playoff.
For this 1t must win over Tech.
A crowd Of 400 was on hand last
night for an experiment in series
night football, which neither was
good nor bad. It just about paid
the freight with the cold weather
keeping many away.
Books Keep EN- Home.
Too, there is school today and
some Of the boys and girls probably
were kept at home by book work,
whereas on Friday night this
wouldn't be the case.
The game itself was $3.50, with a
series of fumbles marring the pro-
ceedings halfway through and a
number Of incompleted passes re-
ducing the caliber of play.
Coolidge packed a lot of excite
ment into the first five minutes OF
the second half with three touch
downs. The first particularly was a
beauty and one to delight the stu
dent OF football. A 10-yard dash by
John Schullenbarger and 20-yard
pass from Schullenbarger to Addy
Bassin reached Roosevelt's 13. Then
the Colts lined up with an unbal-
anced spread away out to the left

Bassin Runs 80 Yards.
Hardly a minute later the Colts
again tailed with Bassin breaking
away for 32-yard gallop after
pass interception got Coolidge into
position. With excitement still high
after this beautiful run the Colts
added a clincher when Bill Cannon
intercepted pass from Lou Timber

quarter ended Coolidge finished OF

ing opposition In the last few
days.
1t is not known whether the
Nazi high command has diverted
some forces from the Russian
front or whether a portion of
their aircraft production intended
to form the reserves in the east
has been diverted to the west.
In either case, the Allied high
command feels that the day and
night raids not only affect Ger
man morale and production but
also are helping to soften the
blow which the Nazis intend to
administer to the Red armies in
the next few weeks.
That the Germans firmly are
determined to attack the Rus
slams with every ounce of strength
they possess Is now admitted in
all military quarters.
Professionals in Saddle.
The new Nazi campaign against
Russia will no longer be "hunch
operation" Hitler is now only
nominally the commander in
chief Of the Wehrmacht. The
strategy and practical applica-
ton OF the strategy is in the
hands OF professional splicers
such as Gen. Jodel, said to be the
smartest man on the German
general staff.
The Nazi field marshals and
generals have been planning the
third Russian campaign since
February. According to the best
available information, the Ger
man high command has concen-
trated on the Russian front not
less than 200 divisions (about
100000 mem and an air force
OF at least 5000 planes. Supplies
Of all types have been rushed to
the main centers in Poland and
the Ukraine and to the Northern
Leningrad and Moscow fronts for
several months.

people must begin at once to take
over the control of military strategy
through their Congress.
They don't like the experts any
more, now that the experts seem to
favor a second front. All of a sud-
den, for their money, the experts
know from nothing
(This switching of arguments is
what have been calling "Obscur-
antism." I put the word here
within quotes because some
customers have objected that 1t
is a hard word to understand.

just skip all the quotes)
Policy Is Fixed.
We see now that this group is not
really interested In the question of
whether the experts ought to over
ride the public, or whether the pub
lie ought to override the experts.
1t Is interested in a certain military
policy OF non-co-operation with
Russia, and in pursuit of that policy
it leaps lightly, like the goat, from
one argument 10 another.
And when, last fall, it was argued
that We ought TO take the offensive

punch against Hitler, this same
Congressional. bloc wagged its group
finger wisely,sand asked, but what
about all the shipping we would
need for such an operation? We

many ships it takes to carry a soldier.
and SO on.
Now, In this late spring, the same
group argues that we ought to trans
fer our efforts to battle front
5000 miles away, rather than con-
centrate on one that Is only 5000
miles away. But nobody mentions
shipping. Nobody has yet said ship"
IN Congress, though the new strategy
would obviously require many more
vessels than the old.
All C a sudden, apparently. SOL
diers have learned to swim to the
scene of their work.

the measure up for considera-
ton. Part of the time the chair
man of the subcommittee Sen
ator O'Mahoney, has been i'll.
More recently the Senate
passed the Connally bill, author
izing the President to take over
war plants in which strikes or
lockouts occurred, providing by
law for the War Labor Board,
which was created under execu-
tive order, and giving the board
power to subpoena witnesses.
On May 6, the bill was referred
to the House Military Affairs
Committee. That committee sub
stituted bill of its own, much
more far-reaching, and reported
it favorably to the House May II.
Two days later, May 13, the
House Committee on Rules voted
a special rule for the measures
consideration.
Showdown Nears.
The leadership of the House,
presumably following the wishes
of the Administration, has been
able to hold up consideration of
the rule and the anti-strike bill.
Yesterday, the proponents of the
bill met with Speaker Rayburn
and Majority Leader Mccormack
in the Speakers office. After
some discussion, it was agreed
that the rule and the bill should
be taken up a week from to-
morrow.
1t had been announced last
week that the measure would not
come before the House during the
present week, and many of the
members who wished to be pres
ent had made agreements to
leave Washington. The pro-
ponents of the bill, therefore,
made no protest against this
further postponement. 1t looks
now, however, as though the issue
would come to a showdown In
the House on June 2.
The rule is an open rule" per-
mitting the free offering of
amendments. 1t calls also for
general debate not to exceed
three hours, and then for the
consideration of the bill for
amendment under the FIVE min
ute rule.
The strategy Of administration
opponents Of this legislation has
been delay-so that 1t could win
over votes, through the exertion
of pressure of various kinds. Also,
with time, it was believed that
the Congress might cool off from
its high temperature the strike in
the coal mines had induced.
This is the old strategy which
has been used again. and again
by an administration opposed to
all restrictive labor legislation.
1t may be effective again. Anti
New Deal Democrats who are
supporting the anti-strike bill
fear that the Republicans in the
House will fall away. The truth
Of the matter is that national
political campaign, in which not

the experts" argument, is OBJ
scurantism, or double-talk. There
is a shipping problem when you
want shipping problem, and there
is no shipping problem when you
don't want shipping problem. The
shipping argument is used, not to,
illuminate, but to obscure, which is
why "obscurantism" is the only word
that flts.)
When, last fall, 1t was argued that
we ought to throw a quantity of hot
lead right in Der Fuehrer's face,
the objection was made that it was
too early for such an enterprise, that
Hitler was too strong, and that we
had better wait until we had ac-
cumulated more equipment and men.
Now, when American hot lead is
about to fly against the best tar
get in the world, precisely the same
bloc argues that there is no point
in such an endeavor, because it is
now too late to bother about it;
Hitler has become too weak to be
a menace.
Too Early or Too Late.
Besides, it adds, we have too many
men and too much equipment on the
scene, and we ought to move both
somewhere else
So, you see, that is how it goes;
it Is always too early or it Is too late,
or we don't have enough stuff, or
we have too much, and no matter
what we do, it turns out, strangely
and mysteriously, that the condi-
tionS are never just right Tor getting
rid of Hitler.
We are always too weak, or else
We are too strong, and this curious
scheme OF argument reflects isola-
tion's similar arguments of prewar
days, when it contended that we
couldn't fight Hitler, because he was
too powerful, and that he was no
threat to us because he was too
feeble.
And that, my friends, is obscurant-
ism, and think maybe I'll say so
in paragraph without parentheses,
because, after all is said and done,
1t Is the good word and the right
word and the word we are all going
to have to learn.

This Changing World
Allies Believe Round-the- Clock Raids on Reich
Will Weaken Power Of Nozi Thrust at Russia

actually know more about the
movements of German troops on
the eastern border than they
know about the Red armies.
This is due either to an excel
lent intelligence service or the
fact that the Germans do not
think it worth while to conceal
their operations too much. Such
was the case when the Nazi forces
were rolling over Western Europe.
Once the operation was decided
on by the general staff, the Ger
mans did not bother to conceal it
from their enemies.
What our eastern associates
have at their disposal to counter
the impending blow is little
known here. 1t is assumed that
the Red armies are still strong
and there is no reason to believe
differently when we take into &C
count the enormous reservoir OF
manpower they possessed. Even
If their losses in the 1912 cam
paign were as heavy as the Nazis
claim, they still can muster a
powerful force to fill the places
of those put out of combat.
The supplies sent from this
country to Russia have been re-
garded as satisfactory even by the
Russians themselves, who in the
past have complained that our
effort did not correspond to our
promises.
The Red armies have been re-
ceNing lease-lend goods over sew
eral routes and there is no ques-
tion that the bulk of the planes,
tanks, ammunition and particu-
larly food, has reached them ac-
cording to schedule.
L. S. S. r. Holds Tongue.
The Allied high command is
not particularly anxious to dis
cover the secrets of our associates,
although a better knowledge of
their production capacity would
facilitate the estimate of chances
of holding the Nazis. 1t is diff
cult, it is said, to obtain even an
estimate Of what the Russian
high command itself thinks about
the prospects OF the Nazi attack.
We are told that the Soviet
general staff is not particularly
worried about the forthcoming
operations. In the light of past
performances of the Red armies
and the high quality of their
generalship, there is no particular
reason to show more concern than
the Russians themselves.
Nevertheless, it is admitted that
the key to the war in Europe is
in the hands of the Russians. If
the Nazis are stopped short of
their objectives-as we all expect
we may look to much trouble
In Germany. 1t is highly improb-
able that the German people will
be able to stand another winter
OF war on the eastern front. But
should something go wrong with
our associates in the East, there
IS no saying what surprises may
be IN store for us this year.
