 The four commercial and town teams represents the following groups: The Pan American Clippers, the Pan American Airways the Signacs, the Signal Corps; the Cy- ane, Coast Guard Cutter unit; and the Support Beavers, the Support group, champions of 1945.
 The Clipper basketball team, composed of former high school and college players, is the tallest, but not the largest, team in the league. The Signac team is made up of part Of last years team with several new additions including Corp. Shorty Jcnes and Sgt. Mcdonnell. The Support team. without the services so far of two former stars, Krogman and Doc" Stewart, still has strong aggregation. Not much information is available on the Coast Guard team, but with the permanent sta ticning of two large ships in Juneau scheduled for the near future, their ball club should improve propor- tionately
 Coach Anderson anticipates high interest in this years league. Fleet Week basketball games have already served to sharpen local interest in the strong and weak points of the high school teams Tonight's games will give the hoopster' fans a chance to seen all four teams in action, and should start the ball rolling in picking out the probable king team of basketball for this season.

job Tensions Rising
Truman Told By NAACP

sC>lored People has had a disturb
ing number of reports from our
chapters in 16 key states indicat-
ing mounting tension springing
from uncertainty as to fair chance
for employment in postwar period.
Feeling is general that difference
and hostility to Fair Employment
Practice Committee means that
government has abandoned Negro
Americans and they will have to
shift for themselves battling dis
heartening old attitudes of preju-
dice. Added to this is feeling of re-
turning Negro veterans that coun-
try is indifferent despite their sac
rifices in war for democracy abroad.
In whatever conferences are held
on fate of present FEPC we trust
that your wise and sympathetic
view as to its value in this critical
period will prevail. We most earn
estly and respectfully urge that pre-
sent committee be continued SO
that it may contribute its expert
ence to the solution of vexing pro-
blems already upon us and may at
the same time reassure Negro citi-
zens that the government has not
abandoned them and that the de-
mocracy their soldiers fought for
IS at work on the home 'front.'

Newsprint Still
Limited OPA Warns

WASHINGTON - Negro news
paper publishers, along with other
publishers, should not anticipate
any immediate increase in their
authorized use of newsprint in view
of the continued shortage and lack
of any definite assurance of in
creased supplies, the War Produc-
ton Board announced this week.
Benton r. CANCEL, director of
WPB's Forest Products Bureau,
said
"The end of the war has caused
considerable conjecture on the part
of newspaper publishers with re-
spect to increased supplies of news
print.
mo increase in supplies of news
print are in sight at the present
time. Imports of pulp from Europe
and cutbacks in military pulp and
paper requirements affect the sup
ply of newsprint to a minor extent
only. In fact, none. of the pulp i'm
ported from Europe can be used IN
the production of newsprint because
it is too costly and because news
print mills in North America are
not physically equipped to handle
this material"

(NNPA War Correspondent

GUAM-(SNS)- the Nays
relaxation of submarine censorship,
the thrilling stories of the under
sea fleet are beginning to come TO
light. Bill Dredge, So (xl 1-c, U. S.
N. r., an enlisted Navy correspon-
dent who has covered much OF the
action in Pacific waters, in Guam
for a brief rest, is the source OF
the following story about two Ne
gro crew members serving on fleet
submarine on Pacific War Patrol
which carried it's attacks to within
the shadow of shore batteries OH
HOnshu.
The two undersea sailors, Stew
ards, mate, &c, Jimmie McCantS,
10, son of Mr.. and Mrs Charles Nc
Giants, Ala Pearl ST., Mobile, Ala;
and stewards mate first class John
E. Buie, 80, son of James Buie,
Route 2, Box As, Red Springs, N. c.,
were togethre on the run that
brought them closer to the Japan
homeland than many Yank fight
ing man will ever get. They were
close enough to land to clearly dis
tinguish landmarks on the beach.
YOUNGER is VETERAN
Though the youngest, McCants is
the veteran. He has completed three
submarine war patrols, two of which
provided plenty of action. McCants
has stood at his battle station as
ammunition passer in the after
battery compartment during battle
surface" conditions, and has helped
reload the yawning torpedo tubes
in the ships forward torpedo room
during battle stations submerged"
In December 1914, he was on
sub that patrolled off the coast OF
Formosa, also within distance OF
the shoreline. His silver submarine
combat pin will bear two bronze
stars for three successful runs If
the hunting" is good on this trip.
McCants has two brothers in the
Army: Charles, 26, quartermaster
corps sergeant and John, 80, a pri-
vate first class, on duty in the Paci-
fic.
Buie has one successful patrol be-
hind him and is really off for Tokyo
this time as his submarine draws
closer to the japanese mainland
with each passing day.
ON MIDWAY ISLAND
Although he had no regular SUBJ
marine training, Buie was attached
to a submarine relief (repair) crew
on lonely Midway Island soon after
he came overseas, and served there
10 months before being assigned to
regular undersea duty.
During his first patrol, his sub
marine rescued five Navy airmen
who has been shot down off Marcus
Island and were floating within the
shadow of Jap shore batteries on
tiny rubber raft.
AS Buie's ship surfaced, swung
then halted to pick UP the filters,
the Jap shore guns spoke loud and
often, sending angry splashes OF
shell-stirred water up around her
decks.
Buie too, IS qualified to wear the
silver submarine combat pin, in adj
dition to his various theatre of war
ribbons. His duties, in addition to
operating the tiny galley in officers
quarters with McCants, include

NY. To Finance
 A Labor School
Cornell Becomes First American University To Give Organized Labor Direct Representation On Its Board
 Of Trustees|Labor Pledges Its Support

ALBANY, N. Y.-The first state- supported labor school in the na- ton will open next summer at Cornell University (Ithaca, N. Y), which at the same time will become the first university to give organ ized labor direct representations on its board of trustees.
 Plans for the New York School of Industrial & Labor Relations, au- thorized by the legislature last year, were revealed in a report to Gov. Thomas E. Dewey and the legislature asking an appropriation of $1OO,OOO to cover the first year expenses of the school. The report was made by the eight temporary trustees, headed by the president of Cornell and includ- ing heads of the state AFL, C1O, Associated Industries, Chamber of Commerce and the commissioner of education, who pledged full support by labor, management and the state.
 The report recommended that the school be placed under the con- trol of the Cornell University board of trustees, which would add three new members representing labor. presumably from the AFL, ClO and railroad brOtherhoods. The school would be tuition free to residents of the state and would be financed through an annual appropriation by the legislature. It would offer a 4-year course leading to a bachel- or's degree, short specialized courses for union and supervisory management, and extension courses in industrial plants, union halls and community centers.
 Courses will be designed to pro- mote better understanding between employers and workers, the report said, pointing out that many other state and private colleges are plan ming to follow New York's example. The school will accept men and women from the ranks of industry and labor as well as tudents planning career in industrial and labor rela- tions.
 Four types of courses proposed include: a foundation course cOv- cring collective bargaining, media ton and arbitration, social secur- iiy, wOrkmen's compensation, per sonnel management and union or ganization and administration; technical background course of business organization and manage ment, psychology and industry; supporting program of sociology, psychology and economies; and practical series including English. public speaking and accounting.
