Regional War Labor Board to abol-

ers of America, District SO (inde-

room on the floor below. There a
door and few steps lead down into
the very long and narrow gas
chamber. The walls of this cham
Der are also camoufiaged with simu-
lated entries to shower rooms to
mislead the victims.
THE room is fitted with three
traps which can be hermetically
closed from the outside. A track
leads from the gas chamber through
the furnace room. The gassing
takes place as follows:
Turned Into "Shower Room"
THE unfortunate victims are
brought into the hall, where they
are told to undress. To complete
the fiction that they are going to
bathe, each person receives a towel
and a small piece of soap, issued by
two men clad in white coats. Then
they are crowded into the gas
chamber in such numbers that
there is, of course, only standing
room.
To compress this crowd into the
narrow space, shots are often fired
to. induce those already at the far
end to huddle still closer together.
When everybody is inside, the heavy
doors are closed. Then there is a
short pause, presumably to allow the
room temperature to rise to a GER
tain level. after which SIS men with
gas masks climb on the roof, open
the traps and shake down a prep
aration in powder form out of
tin cans labeled 'Cyklon-for use
against vermin' which is manufac-
tured by Hamburg concern. 1t is
presumed that this is 'cyanide'
mixture of some sort which turns
into gas at certain temperature.
After three minutes, every one in
the chamber is dead"
The bodies are then taken out and
burned
Only Jews Are Gassed.
"On principle only Jews are
gassed, Aryans very seldom, as they
are usually given special treatment
by shooting.
Prominent guests from Berlin
were present at the Inauguration
OF the first crematorium in March,

the gassing and burning of 5000
Cracow Jews. The guests, both
officers and civilians, were extremely

Yale Team 'FIattered'
BY Bowl FeeIers, but
Couldn't Play Game
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW HAVEN, Conn, Nov. 21.-
Yale's Athletic Association bigwigs
are extremely flattered" over the
bowl game "feelers" being extended
to thir undefeatd and united foot
ballers, but Director Ogden G. Miller
today said the Ellis positively"
would end their eight-game slate
here Saturday against Virginia.
Its new feeling to me, and
we're extremely flattered," smiled
the Blues athletic boss, "but we
positively couldn't play a post-sea-
son game this winter, even If we
wanted to. Most of the squad are
Navy and Marine Corps trainees,
and they are subject to a 48-hour
Navy rule governing absence from
the post.
THAT would preclude any possi-
bility of our going to any bowl
game, and, besides, classes are
scheduled to be held on New Year
Day"
Delighted, too, is Coach HOWE
Odell, whose lads have trounced
Coast Guard, Cornell, Columbia,
Rochester, Dartmouth, Brown and
North Carolina so far. If they lick
Virginia, it'll be the Ellis first per-
feet season since 1923, when Bill
IMallory's team swept the slate.
From a standpoint of squad
strength, Yale hardly could be COM
pared this fall with the Army or
Navy powerhouses. Nobody, how
ever, knows the elevens limitations
better than Odell, who confesses:
IF We met real big team, we
would be in trouble. We aren't big
enough"

Redskins Are on Spot
With Line Weakened
For Telling Test
By LEWIS r. ATCHIsoN.

From here in it's a hoSs race in
the pro leagues Eastern Division
and the Redskins are fully aware
they've got to come up with their
best brand of football if they hope
to survive.
The schedule apparently favors
the hepped-up New York Giants,
who are host to Brooklyn Sunday,
then finish the season in two games
with the Skins. Philadelphia, ap-
parently the hottest outfih in the
East, has dates with the Chicago
Bears, Brooklyn and Cleveland
Rams. and while form favors the
Eagles these are games in which
anything can happen. You can't
figure them on the records.
Washington, meanwhile, is getting
ready for Boston,s invasion this
week, but with an eye on the Giant
series. The loss Of Forwards Ted
Lapka and Joe Ungerer may be too
hard blow to survive, but the Skins
won't concede until all the ballots
are counted.
Neale Had Tribe Spotted.
What hurt most in the Philadel-
phia game was Sam Baugh's in
ability to put his kicks out of bounds
where Steve Van Buren, couldn't lay
hands on them. And the Eagles had
the Tribe SO well spotted Greasy
Neale was calling the pass plays and
punts from the Sideline, completely
nullifying the threat of quick kick
Philadelphia also had rangy Joe
Aguirre well covered on passes.
Neale's men couldn't stop Baugh's
rifle shots to the wingman, but they
kept him from going any place with
the ball. Joe caught six passes for
Al yards, the longest yards.
New York employed the same
strategy against Don Hutson in
topping Green Bay in the days
biggest upset. Reports from the big
city indicate that Johnny Weiss, end,
and Center Mel Helm forced Hutson
out to the sideline where Howie
Livingston consistently took the ball
away from the Packers great end.
Strictly Up to Skins Line.
Rigging up an offense for the re-
naming games will be a sizable
problem for the Redskins, and Coach
Dud De Groot frankly Is puzzled
The running attack has clicked only
sporadically. and then only when
Bob Seymour has been able to barge
through the line to tighten it suf-
ficiently to give Wilbur Moore and
Frank Seno elbow room at the
fianks. But Seymour can't go
through holes that aren't there and
that puts it squarely up to the line
The double threat of Baugh and
Frank Filchock in the same back
field may make a difference, but
once again the line hasn't given
them enough protection to pick a
receiver and get the ball away. 1t
seems to be up to the line and the
line doesn't seem up to it.

Ohio State Is Third
As Randolph Field
Drops 10 Fourth
BY HAROLD CLAASSEN,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK, Nov. 21-Army and
Navy-the teams that meet in Bal
timore on December 2 in the foot
ball game of the decade-rate No
l and in today's Associated Press
poll to determine the country's out
standing eleven.
The Cadets, who conquered Penn
sylvania by a 62-to-7 score last Sat-
urday, hung onto first place in the
opinions of the SO voating scribes,
but the remainder of the top 10
underwent a shake-up that ousted
Duke, despite its 34-to-7 triumph
over South Carolina, and elevated
Southern California.
Navy, 32-to-0 winner over Purdue,
climbed to second place from third
week ago. Ohio State retained
third. but Randolph Field, which
romped to a 58-to-0 verdict over
Southwestern of Texas, skidded from
the runner-up berth to fourth.
Irish Slip to 18th.
The Flyers were followed by Balm
bridge Naval, Michigan, Iowa Pre-
fight, Southern California, 4th Air
Force of March Field and Georgia
Tech.
Notre Dame, whose long tenure in
the elite ranking was broken last
week when it was ranked eleventh,
fiuttered clear down to eighteenth
this time, despite 21-to-0 conquest
of Northwestern.
Both Army and Navy will be idle
this week as they prepare for their
titanic struggle in Baltimore 10
days hence. The Cadets have scored
4Sl points in piling up eight straight
victories at slightly more than a
point a minute. Only four touch
downs have registered against them.
The Middies, after a slow start, in
which they lost two of their first
four games, have righted them
selves and only Notre Dame has
been able to score on them since.
Their attack has ground out 229 tai
lies while their line, although it
held three opponents to a minus
yardage. has been pierced for IS.
Big Ten Title at Stake.
There is no need of waiting until
December 2, however, to determine
the accuracy of the judges. Ohio
States civilians, No. 3 again this
week, meet Michigan, No. 6, in Co.

Puzzled District boxing fans to-
dav had three big questions for the
ring commission to answer follow
ing the strange actions of that body
this week. The puzzlers: Cd Why
was Guz Dorazio allowed to fight
Dixie Oliver last night when Do
razio plainly is in no condition 10
90 10 rounds? CD Why was the
suspension of Chalky Wright lifted
so that he may fight in Cleveland
December 5? 90 Why was Billy
Fox reinstated before the end OF
his 3O-day suspension for falling to
show up for a fight here?
Most peculiar of these baffiers is
the Durazio matter. The battered
veteran of more than 200 fights, his
face a mass of scar tissue and his
f1abby torso showing the signs OF
advancing years, put up a game
fight against the sharp-punchlng
oliver until his right leg began to
develop the symptoms of paralysis
in the sixth round.
He dragged that stiffening gam
around the ring for two more
rounds before his handlers, Jimmy
Wilson and Jack Pugi, stopped the
brawl at the end of the eighth to
give Oliver a TKO. But not be-
fore Oliver had f1oored the crippled
oldster for a nine-count in the sew
enth. Oliver weighed 1921, Durazio,
2O9. 1t wasn't pretty.
Fighters Punishment Lifted.
The Chalky Wright affair also is
a sorry mess. Promoter Joe Turner
and Attorney Charley Ford ap-
peared before the commission yes
terday to ask why that body had
lifted Chalky's suspension so that
he might fight in Cleveland. They
were informed that it was because
the Ohio bout was charity affair,
but Turner, who dropped a reported
$500 when Wright ran out on a
fight with Jackie Wilson here this
summer, believes that charity should
begin at home.
The promoter believes that if this
sort of thing keeps up, boxers will
be permitted to keep whatever con-
tracts they please. In the mean
time, word comes from New York
that a group known as the Boxing
Managers Guild has called boy
colt against Turner because of his
''unfairness" to Chalky's manager,
Eddie Walker. Can any one clean
up this mess?
On top Of that, there's the Billy
