Bather Five
Faces Strong
Pointe Squad
Seek to Avenee
Lost Weeks
RoseviIIe Defect

The Battling Bathers quintet
tonight will attempt to aVengc
their loss at the hands of Rose
vile last week, when they face
the Crosse Pointe basketball
five. The game will be played
on the opponents court and will
start at 8 p. m. The reserves OF
both schools will play a game
starting at 7 p. m.
Although Coach Roy Quinn
says that tonight'S opponents
will be twice as tough as Rose
vile, he believes that the re-
suits of the encounter may
prove more favorable for Mount
Clemens High school, for, he
states, the Bathers have worked
hard this week, and tonight they
will be playing for all they are
worth, and not experimenting
as they did in the seasons open
err.
Both schools have their last
years squad back, Quinn said,
and the game will probably be
a nip and tuck affair. Crosse
Pointe will be big and good,
Quinn added, and will employ
the man to man defense, as do
the BatherS. Last year the two
teams split their two games,
Crosse Pointe beating the Bath
erS by nine points. and Mount
Clemens beating them by four
points. Both teams play in the
Border Cities League, Of which
Crosse Pointe is the leader as
result Of their % to q win
over Pontiac last week.
A new basketball league call
ed the Big Six, may be formed
Quinn said, but as yet, Crosse
Pointe, which would be the
sixth member, has not yet dc
cided TO Join. The league, II
Crosse Pointe did join, would
be composed of Mount Clemens,
Hazel Park, Ferndalc, Port Hur-
on, Birmingham and the Polntc
team.
Mount Clemens probable
starting team: Arnold Thoel,
center; Bob Manning and Ray
Vickers. forwards; and John
Torrey and Bill Ross, guards.

Maple Leafs )
in Champ Form
Conodiens Face
Stiff Competition

The blame for the Montreal
Canadiens' failure to make the
National Hockey League race a
repeat of last years runaway
can be laid at the door of one
team-the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The Leafs again last night
proved themselves the champ
ions premier stumbling block
by fighting to a 22 draw at
Montreal with only II men in
uniform.
The impasse gave the Leafs
sole possession of second place
over the idle Detroit Red Wings,
and left the CanadiCns with
only one victory in five games
against Hap Days Toronto crew,
against three defeats.
Playing with two makcShlft
forward lines, the Leafs showed
remarkable vitality in throttl-
ms the powerful Montreal at
tack, and goalie Frank McCool
helped by having one of his
good nights. He was particular
ly effective during a blisterlng
Canadlen attack III the closing
minutes.
Mel Hill put the Leafs ahead
nearly halfway through the first
period when he took a pass by
Lorne Carr TO beat Bill Durham
clcanly. Canadien Comet Maui
rice. Richard got it back four
minutes later TO cap sustained
Montreal offensive.
Center Elmer LaCh Of Mon
trcal put the Canadicns ahead
midway through the second heat,
but Bob Davidson squared II in
side Of three minutes, and then
they battled SCorelesSly through
the third session as 10000 look
cd on. The split decision left in
tact the Canadien three point
margin over Toronto.
All teams are idle tonight, but
Boston is at Montreal and De-
troit at Toronto Saturday night.

GiveGreenB Bay
Team the Odds
But One Eye
Apparently Closed
TO N. 7. Record
BY JERRY LISKA

CHICAGO, Dec. Is 49, CFD -
With obvious sectional pride,
bct-makerS in this precinct rate
the Green Bay Packers one
touchdown better than the New
York Giants in their battle for
the National Football League
title in New York Sunday.
This apparently comes from
closing one eye TO New 4ork's
earlier $40 romp over the West
ern Division champions and
closely scanning statistical col
umns with the other.
Strangely, a comparison of in
dividual statistics for the rCgu-
lar l0-game season shows the
Giants to be as much a one
man" team as the Packers,
whose aging but still brilliant
Don Hutson led the League in
scoring and pass-catchlng.
New York's Mr.. Big is bust
in Bill PaSchal, who gallopcd
off with the League ground
gaining title tor second straight:
season, Not only has PaschaI
accounted for almost half of his
teams total of 1882 yards by
rushing, but he carried the ball
nearly as many times as the rest
of the Giant backs combined.
Two Of the other 10 giant backs
have carried the ball more than
a dozen times-HOWIe Living
Ston with "a tries and Ward
Cuff with rs.
On the other hand, Packer
ball-toting has ben shared by d
half-dozen backs topped by
FullbaCk Ted Frltsch with 307
yards in "a tries. Yet Green
Bay trails in rushing yardage by
Scant 1882 to 1,5l7 margin.
Paschal, who grabbed the
rushing championship with 1877
yards in 1876 attempts. has tai
lied nine of New York. II
touChdoWns by runs. The re-
naming eight were contributed
by six different players. The
Packers have produced 10 touch
downs from sCrimmage, Well-dl-
vided among seven players.
Green Bays pass receiving is
strictly a one-man proposition.
Hutson has gathered in SO toss
cs for 966 yards and nine touch
downs. HutSon' 5 total of catches
is 20 more than the combined
efforts of New York top three
receivers, O'Neal Adams, Frank
Licbcl and Cuff.
Despite the WhirlWind finish
of New York'S rcInCarnatcd
passer, 3i-year-Old Arnie Her
Der, former Packer star, Green
Bay has the best tosSCr, Stats
tically He is IrV Comp with 80
competitions in 1T attempts for
an average Of asp, against Her
bcrs mark of SO in sc triesfor

Although Livingston topped
the League in pass interruptions
with nine, the Giants hold slim
33 to % margin in team inter
ceptionS.

NEW YORK, Jan. 4.-In what
was reported the first case of its
kind In this area, Supreme Court
Justice John E. Mcclellan denied
yesterday a landlords plea for evic-
ton of soldiers wife who expects
baby soon.
The 594 Tenth Avenue Corp.
sought to dispossess Mrs. Eve
Schatzberg from her one-and-one-
half-room apartment in the Bronx.
Mrs. Schatzberg's husband, Ru.
dolph, was inducted into the Army
July 4 and is now stationed at Fort
Meade, Md. Her lease expired Au-
gust 10. she said. and the landlord
refused to renew it. ...-
After Municipal Court Judge
Christopher C. McGrath refused to
dispossess Mrs. Schatzberg from
her $36-a-month abode, counsel for
the landlord asked Justice MCGEE
han to compel Judge McGrath to
take such action.
Counsel for the landlord argued
Mrs. Schatzberg was entitled to no
special consideration as a soldiers
wife, since access to the apartment
had been sought since last June be-
fore her husband was inducted.
Judge McGrath himself came into
the Supreme Court chamber to
plead to Justice McGeehan on the
woman's behalf.
Aside from the legal angle" said
Justice McGrath, II appeal to you
not to make me dip my pen into
the blood OF American soldiers and

MOSCOW, Jan. .4.-Premier Sta
lin, who in the course of the war
has greeted all kinds of people, from
chiefs of state to simple Russian
peasants, is looking forward to
shaking the hands of four little
girls who have become supreme
patriots.
These girls are named Svetlana,
Lily, Galina and Valentino.
The story OF their underground
activities is thrilling all Moscow
They were in the province of Khar-
kov during the Nazi occupation
and, in q small way, they carried
on a campaign that gave the Ges-
tapo plenty of worry.
All four are members of the
Young Pioneers League-an organi-
zation of the Soviet open to girls
10 to IA years. During the occupa-
ticn they made a solemn oath to
wear their red ties. This they did
by hiding them under their dresses
But their allegiance did not end
with the wearing of red ties.
They produced a wall newspaper
which they pasted UP In a remote
section of the city where German
guns had blown down most of the
buildings.
Once the paper was up the little
girls would go along the streets and
say to Soviet women, "Auntie,
know where you can find some wood
for your stove. Look over by the
ruined houses"

Mr.. Murphy said the guard was

OF the gasoline had been taken. He
said the rest of the cache was re-

the Warrenton regional ofice, who
began an investigation to determine
If the gasoline had been illegally
obtained, said today that the OPA
Is continuing its investigation. He
said no Federal warrant was sworn

had disappeared.

had left the case to 60 to Roanoke
where he was scheduled to appear in
a court case.
