FOOD RATION NEED
Seen BY B0WlES

WASHINGTON, May 13.-Sta-
bilization Director Chester Bowles
plans to recommend that President
Truman restore food rationing in
August unless prospects for meet
ing famine relief commitments
improve quickly.
He believes, said high official,
that it may become necessary to
ration meat, butter and cheese, and
possibly bread-the latter for the
first time in this country's history.
Bowles' views on rationing be-
came known today as former Presi-
dent Herbert Hoover returned from
his round the world survey of food
requirements and headed promptly
for a conference with Secretary of
Agriculture Anderson, who met him
at the airport. Hoover declined to
comment on the conditions he found
or on his recommendations pending
a conference with President Tru-
man today.
Anderson meanwhile renewed his

warning that depletion of the ma
tion's grain reserves requires a re-
duction in production of livestock
products if famine abroad is to be
prevented next winter.
There should be temporary re-
lief of the critical famine situation
near the end of the summer when
European grain harvest is COM
pleted, but the relief will be only
temporary" he added.
eve must make a choice be-
tween feeding starving people and
maintaining our livestock numbers
at record levels. Our choice, obvi-
ously, must be in favor of people,"
Anderson declared that Ameri-
cans must "face the fact that sew
eral times as many people can be
fed directly with grain as can be fed
if the grain is converted into live
stock products.
Government officials have steered
clear of committing themselves
publicly for rationing in line with
Mr.. Truman's position that it could
not be put into effect in time to do
any good. But rationing has been
urged by many outside the admins

Reece Reiterafes Idea
US. Should Discharge
7 Million Employees

B. Carroll Reece, chairman of the
Republican National Committee
last night reiterated his belief that
100000 Federal employees should be
fired.
Appearing on the Meet the
Press" broadcast over Station VOL
and the Mutual network, Mr.. Reece
said the dismissal of 1000 900 Fed
eral workers was part of the Re-
publican economy program.
He cited figures released yester-
day by the Byrd Committee on
Nom Essential Federal Expenditures
showing increased employment in
old-line Federal agencies to support
his contention that the Government
is not cutting its payroll fast
enough.
Mr.. Reece asserted that the
American public wanted the mass
flrings. declaring that THE Federal
workers have been getting in the
peoples hair"
The Republican chairman was
optimistic about his partys chances
in the November elections, predict
ing that the Republicans would gain
control Of the House. Mr.. Reece
also predicted that Governor Dewey
OF New York would be an easy win

Has Only 7 Nurses

The nurse shortage has hit Flor
ence Crittenton Home so hard that
this haven for unmarried mothers
is now operating with only one
graduate nurse and one practical
nurse, Mrs. Frederick M. Kerby,
president of the board of directors,
reported today.
Mrs, Kerby said the one graduate
nurse is trying to take care of 25
babies, assist at deliveries and tend
a 12-bed ward of mothers at the
same time.
The practical nurse, she said,
works at night but frequently has
to stay on in the morning to help
the graduate nurse.
Mrs. kerby said the situation was
more critical now than it has ever
been. The one graduate nurse, she
said, is doing a wonderful job but
she can't continue to do it alone.
Normally, she said the maternity
ward and nursery has a staff of
three graduate nurses and one prac-
tical nurse.

C.L. &P. Mixed League

Lord Nelson was no greater hero than our own Bob Nelson, who proved his worth in the third game of the match with the Sockets last evening. His team was trailing by three pins when Bob stepped up to the foul line to start his last two boxes. If he didn't come through, the burden was going to fall on Dick Hyland. However, Bob settled the matter then and there by chalking up a double strike, which made it unnecessary for Dick to exert him. self. These AmpereS are just too good at pulling games out of the fire. You never know which mem Der of the team is going to do the trick.
 The Jets fell behind in their bat tie for second place by losing three games to the Fuses. They can't do that to you, Jack, or can they? AL though this team has the highest average In the league, not one mem- Der had total three game score of 300 this week. Perhaps they are sav- ing 1t for their battle with the Plugs next Tuesday. We shall see! We shall seel
 Did everybody in the league cel- ebrate St. Patrick's Day? The in- dividual scores would seem to indi- cate that they were still celebrating last night. Peg Rabbit was the only girl who was able to hit over 300, her total score being BOA. Again Gordon Whitaker led the scoring with 354, and Rene Drolet redeem ed himself this week with 334. Dick Hyland had third high of 328, while Jack Murphy gave the Jets some competition when he rolled a total of 326.
 With only three more weeks of bowling scheduled, isn't 1t about time that someone broke one or two of those scoring records? Harry Brennan has held high three since the second week of the season, and that is long, long time.

Greer Talks To LeaVenW0rth
 Hoop Champions
By WIN MALONEY, JR.

Coach Hugh Greer, formerly of Ellsworth High School in South Windsor, Conn, and now member of the University of Connecticut Athletic staff was the principal speaker at the Lion Clubs testi- monial luncheon for the Leaven- worth High basketball champs, at the Hotel Elton this noon. Greer, a graduate of the University of Con- necticut in the class of 1926 has a very enviable record as 8 high school mentor, and by virtue of this record is now returning to his old Alma Mater in the position which has brought him much fame. Dur ing his career he has coached at Glastonbury, Manchester and Ells- worth where he came into promi- hence with five successive cham pionShip basketball teams. Many might remember that this season his team was seeded 1lth in the CD Basketball tournament at Hartford but went into the finals only to be defeated by Bloomfield. Besides basketball, Greer has de- veloped many championship squads in soccer and track during his very successful tenure at the South Windsor High School.
 Three Sport Coach
 At the present time MT. Greer is engaged as assistant coach of Spring football and in the very near future he will take over the duties of JV baseball mentor. In the fall when the football season is ush- cred in, he will also be in charge of freshman football and varsity foot ball. besides handling frosh baseball and basketball. There is probably no one in the State of Connecticut who is more conversant with the game of basketball than Greer who with his fine personality and fine athletic record is simply fitted to assume his newly acquired duties as coach at the University of Connecti- cut.

ALI BABA AND BENNY ROSEN IN FEATURE
BY JOHN A. CLUNEY

Ali Baba, not to mention tht Forty Thieves, will be but one oA eight professional wrestlers, sched- uled to give Waterbury anotherI taste of the grunt and groan sport| tonight at the state armory onI Field Street. His opponent, big Ben- ny Rosen of New York will tangle with the terrible Turk in a finish bout that is expected to provide keen entertainment, barrel of laughs and exhibitions of strength and endurance.
 Promoters Eddie Walker and Brownie Karaban have been en- couraged considerably to believe that a good big crowd will find it's way to the Field Street drillshed, for they have had lively advance sale of tickets, with considerable de- mand for ringside seats. A block of l50 choice seats went on sale at noon today, at Mulligan's restaurant on Phoenix avenue.

 Prevented by state armory regula- tions from staging their original show on March ', after securing local permission, Walker and Kara ban were able to keep the show in- tact, tonight's card the exact line- up of the four bouts scheduled earl- fer this month.

 Steinborn, the German strong man who featured a "bear-hug" as his best wrestling weapon, helped draw the largest crowd in Connec- ticut mat history when he tangled with Jim Londos, the golden Greek, many years ago at New Haven Arena; more than 1000 people pay ing their way to see two of the best wrestlers of modern times. What Milo can do with Ross, who will have height, reach and weight on him is just what may make the bout the best on the card from fans viewpoint.
