- CHOICE MORSEL It Says Here
. By BOB HOPE

I guess you all read the curious news item that appeared in the papers the ether day about six soldiers who hired a taxicab to take them to New York. Original ly there were twelve who were going but they decided that twelve would be too uncomfortable Sit- ting in one seat-so they cut it down to six.
 But the whole trip was the re- suit of a mistake-the soldiers were veterans who had just ar rived back from overseas and they were 8 little eager to meet some girls, and by the time they found out that the whistle they were following was coming from the Superchief-they were in New York.
 It. was a wonderful trip. They made good time-in fact they averaged over fifty crap games an hour all the way. I don't know whether the driver really was in a hurry but he averaged fifty miles an hour all the way to New York except once when he slowed down to 35-to change tire. It was a rough ride. Once while they were going through Arizona one of the soldiers yelled to the driver Hey, take it easy-1 almost hit my head on that last bump And the driver said Bump nothing-that was the Grand Canyon"
 I don't know whether it was an expensive lark or not, but the meter was so happy it didn't tick instead every time it hit the $lO mark-it played "The Bells of St. Mary's."

ticipate in corps and Army ma neuvers, which are vital prepara- tions to success in military cam- paigns.
 Though ROTC graduates com- posed 12 percent of the war off, cers, its most important contribu- ton was the immediate availabil- ity of its product. Just what we could have done in the first phases of our mobilization and training without these men I do not know. I do know that our plans would have had to be greatly curtailed and the cessation of hoStilities on the European front would have been delayed accordingly. We must enlarge and strengthen the system.
 An unbroken period of years training appears essential to the success of a sound security plan based on the concept of a citizen army.
 It is possible to train individual soldiers as replacements for vet eran divisions and air groups as we now do in a comparatively short period of time. The train ing of 8 unit itself cannot be &C., complished at best in less than a year: air units require even more time. The principle is identical to that of coaching a football team. A halfback can learn quick ly how to rln. with the ball, but it takes time and much practice and long hours of team schimmage before he is proficient at carrying the ball through an opposing team, utilizing the aid of the ter other men or the team. So it k with an army division or combat air group.

 Yale President Warns Against Political Grip

New Haven, Jan 5-(UP)-Y President Charles Seymour warned against the dangers of political control of education today in his annual report to the university alumni.
 Tt would be better to abandon" projects which individual univer- sities could not finance themselves than to yield independence" in accepting grants from industry or government, he said. It would be disastrous for our academic morale if the universities became involved in a scramble for the contents of a research pork barrel" President Seymour warned.
 We must be free to teach what we think is right, free to do it in the way we think best, free to admit students or exclude them according to our own estimate of their capa- city. Our power for effective service would disappear once we became dependent upon outside subsidies or control" Seymour said.
 Although he favored Universal Military Training as an essential of National Security" Seymour said he would oppose any plan to merge such training with academic edu- cation.
 In the transition to peacetime procedures, Seymour said We must recapture ancient values which have perforce for while been lost"
 Yale plans for the future include return to former standards in the medical school and establishment of a university department of re- ligion, he said.
 While granting the probability of changes in educational methods, Seymour told the alumni that Yale studies will be conservative in content.
 The university must wisely steer & course between opposing atti- tudes: on the one hand the urge to Tory complacency conceived in a nostalgia and unrealistic idea of the

Now playing at the Loew-Poli Theater is the action-packed drama Then Were Dependable" in which Robert Montgomery, Donna Reed and John Wayne are the central figures. It is courageous drama, packed with excitement and thrills, and depicting the heroc saga of the fight of PIT boat squadron against overwhelming odds.
 Both Robert Montgomery and Director John Ford resume their screen work in this MGM adaptation of William L. Whites best-seller novel, after an absence of four years in which each saw naval com- bat action. Montgomery plays Lt. Brickley commanding MITE Squad ron Three. When Cavite falls. he and his second in command, Rusty" Ryan, played by John Wayne, are anxious to prove the worth of their six PIT boats and the dauntless quality of their crews. These PTS are ordered to get Jap cruiser in Port Binanga when their Shelling makes the position untenable for U. s. troops. Ryan is held in hospital with blood poisoning while two boats of the squadron torpedo and sink the cruiser. But one PIT boat has been sabotaged and has to be abandoned and sunk.
 Though he is in love with an Army nurse, Donna Reed, Ryan compels the doctor to release him before his arm is healed. Four PTS are left on the day that news of Singapore fall comes. Brickley and Ryan eyac- uate high ranking officers to Min danao, whence they are flown to Australia.
 Montgomery offers a penetrating and finely shaded portrayal as the skipper whose unrelenting faith ir the worth of his PIT boats goadS hi men on to heroic gallantry. It is z role that stands up with the best o! his earlier work and again demon strateS him to be one of the screens sterling performers Wayne, as hi:

Quiz For MdrYldnders
Answer to Question I:

Answer to Question 4:
f., Governor Eden, last Colonial
Governor of Maryland and an
ancestor Of Anthony Eden of
England, owned the famous race
horse "Whynot," one of the
greatest race horses of his day.
Governor Eden is buried at the
State House in Annapolis. Gov
ernor Bowie also owned the
great race horse, "Crickmore,"
in the 1905. "Crickmore" beat
the famous Hindu. Truly, horse
racing is a Maryland tradition.
Answer to Question 2:
The Gentlemen of the Mary
land Jockey Club who operate
Pimlico will tell you that two
people-and two people only
pay the bills for Maryland rae
ing. These two are the horseman
who brings his horse to Pimlico
and the man or woman who
comes to Pimlico to witness the
racing. The State of Maryland
contributes no money to Mary
land racing. That is why, at Pim-
leo, the horseman and the public
come first in all considerations.

U. S. Needs More Oil

Petroleum has become an ever in
creasing factor in the economy Of the
nation. For years we have largely
supplied the world with oil as we'll as
being by far the worlds largest con-
sumner of petroleum and its products.
In 1889 we produced 100000, 900
barrels of crude oil, or 81 per cent of
the world production. During the war
our production rose to 100000, 900
barrels.
The unprecedented demand for
petroleum during the war has depleted
the know reserves and, what Is of
equal significance, has delayed pros
pecting for new fields. The known re-
serves have been estimated as sufficient
to supply our needs, at the prewar
consumption rates, for Is to % years,
In addition to these known and
proved reserves, the normal expectancy
Of discovery may extend our reserves
sufficiently to last an additional Is Ia
100 years, again at the prewar level
Of consumption. These additional re.
serves cannot be found, however
without an intensive search of every
possible oil-producing area and with
all the modern chronological methods
at our disposal.
Private initiative has kept US fully
supplied with oil in the past. Given
the chance, it win continue to do 20 in
the future.
