SEATTLE Having seen what t is like outside" young Alaskan Eskimos who left their homes and reindeer herds in the far north are not returning home, R. B. Bolton, Veterans Administration contact representative, discovered on a trip from Nome to Point Barrow.
 Instead they are going to Nome, Anchorage, Fairbanks and other Alaska towns where opportunities are greater. Many are going into business with CT loans and others plan to obtain a government edu- cation.
 This has alarmed the older na- tives, Bolton said upon his return to Seattle, because they have learn ed that once a youth gets a taste of the outside world he never re- turns.
 The eX-sarvice men who have gone back to their villages, are keenly interested in the various phases of the GI Bill of Rights, Boltcn said He received many inquilies atoat terminal pay and the educational features from the Eskimos

SUpERSTITUTION
 K TO BE DEFIED
 BY MT. OL yMpUS

i ABOARD THE MT. OLYMPUS. Dec. IT The commander of the Nays Antarctic expedition, Ad- miral Richard H. Cruzen, let it be known today that he will defy a superstitution, probably defy it a couple times
 Cruzen, from his post aboard the flagship Mount Olympus. has giv- en his consent to the killing of an albatross.
 An albatross is a large ocean, icing bird.
 Legend has it that the killing of an albatross by a sailor brings im- mediate and lasting bad luck for the slayer, his shipmates and even the vessel The story is in black and white in Coleridge's Rime of the Ancient Mariner.
 Unworried by the mariners hard luck tale, Admiral Cruzen has rul- ed that the expedition biologist, Jack Perkins, may kill an albatross.
 Perkins first plans to trap one of the hig birds, to catch it alive ny trailing fish bait behind the Olympus. He will put an identifica- ton tag of the bird and release it.
 What Perkins wants to find out first is whether that same bird act ually will follow the ship for 1,500 miles as some people claim.
 After that test, he is interested in capturing and stuffing one or more albatross for the National Museum in Washington.
 And that is wien the supersti- ion will be tested. Admiral Cruz en says he is not worried.

|AAU Places Emphasis
On 0Iympics, Picks
Omaha for III Meet
BY II. Assoeiotsd Press

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Dec. a.
The National AAU is gearing its
program for 1947 around prepara-
tions for participation in the Olym-
pic games year hence. picking a
centrally-located city for the an
nual convention so every delegate
possible may attend.
At the closing session Of the 58th
convention here yesterday, Omaha
was selected as the meeting place,
that city being picked by the Con-
vention Committee because, accord
ing to Chairman Charles L. Orn-
stein of New York, it. is practically
in the center of the Nation.
The fact that the AAU wants to
meet where more delegates may at
tend and thus be better able to work
out every phase of its Olympic pro-
gram was reason why San Diego,
which bid strongly for the 1947 con-
vention did not get it.
President Willard N, Greim Of
Denver, who was reelected for his
third term, stressed preparations
for the Olympics in practically every
talk he made to the convention, urg-
ing attendance Of AAU representa-
tives at international meetings
where they could best determine the
rules under which the games will be
conducted so they might bring the
AAU in line and thus further Amer
ica's chances on winning champion
ships.

college football for 81 years, dosen't
intend to lift little Susquehanna

into the bigtime. his son said today.
A. A. Stagg, jr., who will be joined
by his father as co-coach at SuSque-
hanna. said it was his father'e am
bition to be grid mentor until he's
90. II am looking forward to helping
achieve his ambition" he declared.
The 84-year -old Stagg resigned
from his post at the College of the
Pacific Saturday after he had been
asked to accept the position OF
"consultant in athletics"
1--WE hape to produce winner at
Susquehanna," said the younger
Stagg, "but We are not going out of
our class just because father is join
ing me as co-coach"
Susquehanna has one of the small
est football squads in the country,
with only 33 boys turning out for
the 1916 campaign. The team won
three and lost three.
The younger Stagg has stressed
running attack, with the use of
fiankers, during most of his % years
as a coach, while his father relies
largely on the forward pass, which
he used at the University of Chicago
as far back as 1906 when a team
spanked by Walter Eckersall crushed
Illinois, $40.

The first few games confirmed the

Elmer Ripley bemoaned the abb

Curbed in Practice
By Poor Weather

MELBOURNE, Dec. Sunless
Melbourne's weather shows a dras-
tic improvement soon, the Ameri-
can Davis Cup team is not at all
certain to be at it's peak in play
ing form for the big test, even
though the showdown still is more
than two weeks away.
The entire team needs a period
OF intensive practice under q warm
sun to condition itself for the hot
weather that normally prevails
around Christmas when the matches
are scheduled
Walter Pate, nonplaying captain,
also badly needs to pit his singles
candidates and doubles combina-
tions against one another all this
week In order to make up his mind
about the cup team he must nomi-
nate next Monday.
Melbourne's capricious climate
threatens to disrupt the entire pro-
gram. 1t was cold and windy yes
terday and 1t rained most of the
night, leaving the Kooyong courts
sodden and then came gusty, cut
ting winds.
In the first official practice ses-
sion yesterday, the two doubles
teams were able to play only one
long set and part Of another be-
fore rain forced a halt. The test
was far from conclusive as the
players did not like the conditions
and, for the most part, played fast
and carelessly. Jack Kramer and
Ted Shredder won the completed
set from Gardner Mulloy and VIII
liam Talbert, 1911.
Today's schedule called for singles
tests with Kramer meeting Frank
Parker in the main event Neither

leaving California more than three
weeks ago. Schroeder and Mulloy

tion than any men on the squad

80 Likely Prospects
Seek Central Jobs
Under New Coach
By GEORGE Huber

Newest and youngest high school
coach IN town is 27-year-old Gabe
Ferazzi, Massachusetts boy who
played basket ball out at Cali
fornia's San Diego State College
and who now is In charge Of the
Central High team.
Gabe got the boys all popped up
about basket ball at Central when
he arrived there this fall, and as
one result had a turnout of SO can
didates when he opened the gym
doors for his first practice. In a
crowd that size there was lot OF
chaff, but also quite bit of wheat,
and Gabe still has 80 likely pros
poets around. The spirit and fight
is there, and also some talent, and
the boys themselves aren't at all
gloomy about the seasons prospects.
Gabe himself is stranger in
town and doesn't know just how
tough or easy the league here is
compared to what he's used to; so,
until he sees some of the others he
won't make prediction about Gen.
trails chances. He doesn't seem
gloomy, however. Either he's just
naturally a cheerful chap or maybe
he's got something there.
Man0s at Pivot Job.
A couple or three regulars back
from last year gave him starter
toward this years quint. There's
6-foot-1 Steve Manos to work on
the pivot, plus Seven Steve Covey,
a guard. Also on hand, and very
welcome, too, is John Koustenis,
somewhat smaller than the others,
but fast on the floor and sharp
through the hoop. Koustenis was
standout early in the season with
the Vikings last year, but midway
through the schedule his studies
caught up with him and he had to
step aside.
Others back from the 1916 Gen.
tral team are lanky Cal Kramer and
shorty AL Singer. Among prominent
newcomers are several football play
ers, Ross Keith, Joe Ruggieri, Bob
Petrillo, Hal Sponslor and Bill Dun
ker. Ruggieri is a fast boy who is
learning his way around a basket
ball floor and 6-foot-1 Sponslor is
proving very rugged and good re-
bound grabber.
johnson Seeking Post.
Bob johnson, baseball shortstop
last spring, is out for the team, too,
and Is making such a high percent
age of his shots there's a good
chance he might break into the
starting lineup. There are others
Of nearly the same caliber on hand,
so one big Central handicap last
season, shortage of good substitutes,
won't bother the team so much
this time. Also Central has had
much more preseason practice than
Viking squads of recent years when
Coach Jan Jankowski had to finish
with football before starting basket
oall.
Last year the Vikings squeaked
into the first division and the play
offs, and they are counting on doing
better this time,
