FOOTBALL JOLT

Lexington, KY, Jan. 21-CUP)--
Officials Of the Southeastern Cone
ference said today that the uni
versity Of Georgia had appealed q
$500 fine levied for alleged use OF
ineligible football players and that
the school would be given 9 hear
ing at the spring meeting Of faculty
representatives.
The unprecedented dis ciplinary
measure was announced yesterday
by DR.. r. g. Funkhouser, confer
ence secretary who said the confer
ence investigation disclosed TIA
grant violation Of the rules In spite
Of definite advices to the contrary
by the conference commissioner,
M. s. Conner"
Funhouser said that Corners
minutes on the case stipulated that
Coach Wally Butts Of Georgia had
maintained an attitude Of defiance
for conference regulations"
$1,000 Limit
Although, according to Funk
houser, there never had been q
previous instance of a college being
fined for use Of ineligible players.
There has been a long standing
conference regulation providing for
fines as high as $1,000 for each
offense. Presumably, Georgia could
have been fined q total Of 5000,
81 900 for each Of the five players
involved.
The players transferred to 0eor-
gia from other schools and under
conference regulations were In
eligible to play during their first
semesters. However, the league off,
Gals amended this rule for the
duration Of the war at their mid
winter meeting in December and
next season players similarly trans
ferred will be eligible from the start.

DENVER, Sept. 5-tRE-Deploring
unrest within labor's ranks, the
National Federation of Federal
Employees appealed by resolution to

dent unions
The federation also voted itself
''unequivocally opposed to and
against strikes, picketing or other
public acts against government"
President Roosevelt said in a let
ter to the convention today that
the civil service commission has
set up fair and equitable rules to
govern reduction of federal po-
sitions as war conditions permit.

Headquarters, 11th U s. Air Fore es, Alaska, Jan. 4(UP)-Aleutians- based army planes, in the first army combat mission against the Kurile Islands since last Sept. II, struck at Japans big naval base at Paramu- shiru, 1900 miles northeast of Tok- yo, and Shimushu on Dec. 31.
 The 11th air force announced the raid carried out by four army Cat alina flying boats. 1t was the first disclosure of & raid on the twin Jap anese bases.
 GA navy communique issued at Washington said lon Dec. 3l, group of army bombers bombed Para mushiru. Results were not observed. All our planes returned safely.")
 The raid, the first in which the army had sent Catalinas against the Kurile Islands, brought the bombers over their targets around midnight.
 Erratic anti-aircraft fire burst around the planes as the bombar- diers made runs on the army staging area at Paramushiru and on naval installations in Shimushu Island, just across a narrow Str:-
 One Japanese night fighter, the first reported in North Pacific &C., tion, challenged the four Catalinas, but failed to inflict any damage.
 The four bombers unloaded more than 5000 pounds of Augmentation and incendiary bombs, but damage inflicted was not observed.

Strike Hurts
 Food Program

Washington, Jan. 4. CUP)-De- claring that "every pound of food is necessary for total war and early victory" Economic Stabilization Director Fred M. Vinson today called on striking New England fishermen to resume production at once.
 T am advised of continuance of the fishermen's strike in Boston, New Bedford and New York, he said in a telegram to Capt. Patrick Mo- Hugh, president of the Atlantic Fishermen's Union. This is a seri- ous blow to the wartime food pro- gram"
 The fishermen halted work in protest against price ceilings set by the offlce of price administration.
 Vinson declared that the OPA had gone to "the maximum extent of price action permitted by law and sound policy and that its Dec. 10 offer to place retail dollars-and- cents ceilings on fish in the east and to appoint special committee to iron out other differences was as war as the government could go.
 Backing up the OPA'S refusal to grant temporary suspension of ceilings on haddock, cod, black backs and yellow tails, Vinson said, the agencies of government |. inform me prices received by fisher men are fair and equitable.
 Fishermen from the three cities have been on strike since mit- November. The stoppage is costing the nation an estimated 100000 pounds of fish a day.
