GHIGL|0NES
 ENTERTAINED

MT. and Mrs. A. F. Ghiglione, who, with their two children, ar rived in Juneau on the Denali, are being extensively entertained while visiting here briefly before con- tinuing to Anchorage, their former home prior to the war.
 Mrs. Ghiglione, the former Alice Palmer, who made her home in Minneapolis during her husbands absence in the armed service, was formerly on the staff of the Ju- neau Public Schools.
 Ghiglione will be remembered by construction men here particularly as the engineer in charge of the building of the Juneau-Douglas bridge, for the Alaska Road Com mission. His specifications on this job were so accurate that when the two ends met there was not a divergence of one sixteenth of an inch, which is something of a record on a job of that size.
 He was with the Alaska Road Commission with headquarters in Anchorage when the war began in the Pacific, and immediately en- listed in the Navy, attaining the rank of Commander in the Sea bees and, as such, supervised many construction projects in yarious war areas.
 They plan to leave on the Steamer Yukon for Anchorage next Sunday or Monday.

ALASKA R.R. TO GET NEW
 EQUIPMENT

SEATTLE, Oct 28.-The Alaska
 Railroad, 470-mile line connecting Seward with Fairbanks, disclosed plans today for a five-year eX- lpansion program which will take between 10 and IS shiploads of trolling stock. mostly obtained from the War Assets Administration, north.
 Col. J. r. Johnson, General Man ager, said before flying to Anchor age that TO percent of present i equipment and increasing the daily capacity of 720 net tons to 2,S60 tons in the next five years. with later increase to 5,720 tons.
 "Alaskas growth, with the re- sultant increase of Army and com mercial shipments, have made this extension of facilities necessary, he said.
 More Rolling Stock The equipment, approximately 500 pieces of rolling stock, is be- ing obtained from WAA regions over the country and sent to Au-
 burn, south of here, for storage pending shipping dates. Two diesel electric locomotives and five rail- way hospital cars have already ar rived from San Francisco. The shipments will be made to Anchorage, by either commercial ships or Army transports or pos sibly both.
 Regional WAA Director Bradeen said the diesel locomotives and railroad hospital cars were sold for what they cost the government, or $56,21426 each for the cars and $38,38077 each for the locomotives. Total of the sale was S357, ,832 84. i The two 65-ton diesel electric locomotives were used during the war at the Army's Sierra Ordnance Depot at Herlong, Calf. The hos pital cars were built in 1943 and are practically new, in railroad par lance
 Present equipment stored at Au- burn includes such varied types of rolling stock as; II gondola, two flat, and 13 hospital cars. Two 65ton diesel engines and two en- zines of the 2-8-0 types are also on hand awaiting shipment. A few cars were shipped to Anchor age prior to the present shipping strike.

the encounter. Bert Stiff, Penn back.
threw a pass which was intercepted
by Ralph Fritz, a Michigan guard.
But, as Slater called the play. his

that Bob Westfall. Wolverine full
back had intercepted.
After the game Slater angrily
asked the spotter why he had in
sisted Westfall intercepted when
Fritz really was the hero. "Aw."

to the students" Noted coaches
and referees interpreted new rules
and styles of play.
How many times out are permit
ted in one half? That was a new rule
stressed by the coaches and lecturers.
Answer: four. What about the use
of hands? A punch on the jaw has
been strictly outlawed. Henceforth,
the announcers learned, linesman
must keep his arms close to the
body on contact. instead of out front
like a left hook.
In a field as fiercely competitive
as radio announcing it's unheard of
for the standout performers to ex-
change tricks with beginners. But
here the rules of dog -eat-dog were
tossed aside.

Above all. football announcing is
a mans game. And Bill Slater ad-
vises radio reporters not to study
the names of the players with their
wives before a game. Some years
ago, on the train to Baltimore, he
began memorizing the names and
numbers of Navy players with his
wife's help.
At the stadium. Mrs. Slater, her
head as full of facts as her hus-
bands, sat next to the commandant
of the Naval Academy. As the game
mfolded Mrs. Slater kept calling
out the name OF each Navy player
and his position. while the comman-
dant searched through his program.
Finally he glared at her and de-
manded: "Say, are you a scout for
the team we play next week."

Those making high marks were ready
for advancement from broadcasting
of high-school games to college and
professional ranks.
The announcers were Quizzed on
new formations, with stress on vari-
ations of the T. The answer to one
.- question disclosed that centers now
often pass the ball right through
the legs of quarterbacks instead Of
handing it directly to the signal
caller.
The quick T, or the OF. also
came in for discussion. Announcers
learned that teams using the single
wing offensive may switch suddenly
to the r formation. The announcer
must be aware of this. And he must
sense as the backs shift who will re-
ceive the bali from center and in
which direction the play will break.
Trick Questions
A TEAM kicks the ball into the end
zone. What is the ruling? It's an
automatic touchback, of course. A
team kicks off and member of the
kicking team RECEIVERS the ball in the
end zone. It's a touchdown. On a
kickoff the ball is free after it's
gone 20 yards.
The school for announcers was
started several years ago when the
Atlantic Refining Company. which
is sponsoring the broadcasts of 120
college, 90 high-school and rs pro
games. found that too many men
were spelling into microphones with
out knowing all the answers.
One such announcer proved the
point at the Clemson-P Presbyterian
game. in 1896. Late in the first
half Banks McFadden. of Clemson,
broke through the Presbyterian line.
raced 60 yards for touchdown.
So fast was the action, the an
nouncer never called the play.
He was still busy lining the
teams up in a formation when
McFadden was over for the score.
Sponsorship of college-football
broadcasts is of comparatively recent
origin. but it has increased in the
last five years. This season Atlantic
Refining is using 10000 miles of
telephone wires for hookups.
Since it started airing football.
Atlantic has moved up mahy an
nouncers from the high-school league
to college games.
The young announcers who attend
the Philadelphia school know this
and pay strict attention to the sug-
gestion OF the senior broadcasters.

TyoRrY football announcers sat in
the oak-paneled room and kept
their mouths shut. In a sense they
were making history. For a silent
radio sports reporter is as unique as
a bathing beauty at the South Pole
without a photographer.
In this classroom just aft of Phila-
delphia's Independence Hall. these
gridiron announcers were learning
how to describe football so that even
your Aunt Tessie could understandit.
On a platform Jim Britt. Boston
announcer, was handing out a few
inside tips: Tell the truth always.
If you make a mistake, don't try to
bluff your way out. Admit it."
Britt recalled the mud-splattered
Yale Brown game he broadcast some
years ago. BY the last period the
number of every player ON the
field was obscured by muck. Up
in the broadcast booth Britt was
in agony.
When Brown completed screen
pass for a touchdown, Britt couldn't
identify the players. He dispatched
a spotter to the Brown bench to get
the name of the man who had scored.
~AsI the CoAeh"
A FEW minutes later the spotter
returned. breathless. I'm sorry.
Jim, couldn't get the players
name," he whispered. Britt burned.
II told you to ask the coach" he
penciled on a note pad.
'"The coachr' the spotter ex-
claimed. "He couldn't see any better
than we could. Why. he just sent a
sub into the game to get the players
name himself"
Football announcers are always
running into such difficulties and
that's why these 40 were gathered
together in Philadelphia classroom
to learn the facts of football life.
Top announcers such as Britt, Bill
Slater and Harry Wismer lectured
