Before our unit went into action

major games had been covered in

the scores anyway and the reaction

mention Of the names of home
state and favorite colleges brought
cheers.

Kellar confidently predicted Sc

Debate on McKellar's amend
ment to the $8,557 ,OOO,O 900 indepen-

postponed until tomorrow by a
protracted controversy today over
the appropriation for the Federal
Communications Commission.
The amendment would require
IVA to place it's revenues Of APP
proximately $7o,OOO,OO0 a year into
the general fund of the Treasury
and require the authority to OBJ
tain direct annual appropriations.
At present the authority's reven-
ues go into a special revolving
fund from which it carries on its
own operations within broad auth
orizations by Congress.
Senator Hill D-Okla), who an
nounced he would take the floor
against the McKellar plan, told a
reporter he was convince it would
hamper the activities of the IVA
and limit it's capacity for produc-
ing electric power for war indus

Senator Bankhead DALAI, an
other foe of the Mcclellan propo-
sal. said it would thrust upon Con-
gress the responsibility for technl-
cal decisions that should be left
