SEABEE TROUBLE
Preliminary studies have reveal
ed that the SeabeeS caused tne
most trouble" The coast guard is
considered exemplary, although the
marine corps has the feeling that
thev have been doing the best job.
There is a recognition on the part
of the committee tn a much as
Granger had said earlier, the
further down in the ranks of COM

Walton from policy develops.
The desire has been to treat
with commanders at bases, but 1t
has occurred To the committee that
personnel officers are just as lmpor

gram depends upon the coopera-
ton of these individuals.
Although the Granger party, now

son, Dean of Jackson College will

Mr.. Banks in further statement
said that the victory Loan Drive,
even though the shooting war is

great amount of work in the after
math of the war which call for

the boys and girls are still in uni
form in the far away places of the

Labor Expert
In Variety Job

WASHINGTON, D. C.,Oct. =
The appointment of John R. Steel
man, labor expert, as a special
assistant to the President, reopens
the question Of appointment Of
colored person either as secre-
tary or a special assistant to the
President.
President Truman announced
the appointment of DR.. Steelman
at his press and radio conference
last Thursday. Asked what would
be Mr.. Steelman's assignment,
Mr.. Truman replied DR.. Steel
man would serve Gin any capacity
in which | wish to use him."
Advice on matters particularly
concerning colored people is
usually given the White House
by white employee. This white
employee usually obtains informa.
tion and opinion from some color
ed confidant and passes it on to
one of the six secretaries.
Appointment of colored per-
son in the executive offices to
advise on matters Of policy and
important questions affecting
colored people would stop this
practice and give colored people
an opportunity to make known
their views to che President thru
official channels.
Someone acting with the au-
thority of the President behind
him would exercise considerable
influence in obtaining compliance
with FEPC directives in two
fields in which the agency still
has jurisdiction.
Another matter upon which
Mr.. Truman touched at his press
and radio conference last Thurs
day, in which colored people are

WAR VETERANS AND FRESHMEN
 COLLEGE TASK
BY MASON BLOSSER United PresSS Staff COrrespOndent)

Columbus, O., Jan. l3.-tUPJ -- Freshman athletes, who have been instrumental in keeping collegiate sports in operation during the war may have difficulty in competing with more mature returning service men unless steps are taken to pro- vide well-rounded athletic programs for both, officials of the National Collegiate Athletic Association warned today.
 The N. c. A. A. was warned to review it's basic athletic reguia- tiouS in a forum on postwar inter- collegiate athletics held yesterday in connection with the annual meet ing of the body.
 II. C. Willctt Of the University of Southern California, who suggested the review, Siad many athletic auth critics feared that the more ma turc veterans Will crowd the young CT students cut of athletics all-to- gethCr."
 Although the age dilferential has not benc considered q major prob lem, Willett said 1t was one of the most pressing and that the N. c. A. A. should draft measures promptly to forestall complications,
 He also recommended that college entrance examinations, lowered be- cause of the war, be returned tO their former level as soon as feasible after the war.
 Accelerated college programs which graduate students far too early" also should be discontinued, he said.
 R. w. Haigicr, dean of the Uni versity of Michigan Law school sug- gestcd that the old schism between colleges which pro3olytc athletes and those which re-emphaSize re- cruiting programs be made perman- ent.
 Athletic capacity should be neither a bar nor a cause for Schol- arship award" he said.
 A. w. Hobbs. dean of art at the University of North Carolina de- vclopcd the theme further by em- phasizing that "athletcicS cannot be separated from good educational program"
 intercollegiate and intcrscholtic games serve as incentives and a. tests of fire Of such qualities as self discipline, self control and the will to Win,' he said
 The three day sessions whic!; more than 1000 educators, coaches and athletic officials have atten- dents, will be concluded today Wit.1 election of officers and transaction of routine business.

A high-scoring Taft Prep basket ball squad, coached by Rod Beebee comes from Watertown to Water bury tonight to test the mettle of the Leavenworth Tech Tigers, coached by Bill Tracy, who seems to have the best Tech hoop squad of record under his wing this season. Reserve teams of the two schools open the hoop program at 7:30 on the Wilby court, the varsity game to follow an hour or so later
 Leavenworth' problem is a de- fensive one - keeping Tafts John ny Geupel and Ted Munson in check. Both tall boys who have on eye for the hoops and are very good under the basket the Prep school pair showed up very well against Watertown last Wednesday,
 Joe Eiduks, Herbie Ciarlone and Joe Cocchiola are figured to carry the Leavenworth scoring burden; with Harry Metropolis and Joe San tagotta apt to have a strong part in the Tech defense.

 U.S.R. VS CHASE

Another first round Sunday bas- ketball triple-header has been card ed by the I. R. A. for the YMCA court tomorrow with three good games on the books. An attractive "B" contest featuring Bristol and Seth Thomas teams opens the pro- gram at 1 30 D. m. to be followed by the first of two excellent "A" games At 2:30 D. m. the U. $. Time and Scovill E. R. A. clubs will match hopos; with the 3:45 D. m. headliner showing U. s. Rubber and Chase teams.
 Little To Choose
 Anyone of the three games can go either way" which means that there is little to choose in ability and scoring power Time and Scovill should be a humdinger of a game; with Ruboer favored over Chase if Bobby Thoads plays; but his compe- tition is doubtful due to an ankle in- jury last Sunday in the Scovill game won byq USR, 39-29.
 Bristol and Seth Thomas could be very close. off the records Of both teams while the success of the Sco- will Club against U. s. Time de- bends on the luck" of Joe Joyce, Howie Kraft and Felix Longo when they begin to lombard the hoops. The Time team, with Johnny Stol- lar Skippy Goodwin, Lou Gallulo, and the Delaney lads is very fast and figures to Outpoint the ScoVill squad, but there is no certainty on thta score as Joyce and Kraft could easily account for 90 points on one of their good" days.
 U. $. Time and U. Rubber is the big" game for next week Wedncs- day night; particularly if both teams win tomorrow
