notn the varsity ana the JayveeS at two separate times but that the problem is no insurmountable. At the present time it would be im- possible for them to play at night with the demand for gyms what it is. But it seems like a very good plan to have them play in the Afternoon and maybe have the freshman teams play the prelim- mary game to the jayvee contest. Of course afternoon basketball has never and will never pay in Water bury but such plan is bound to help build the varsity team into q top-flight attraction.
 This plan seems feasible and when such an idea is advocated by Coach Tracy, who turned out a City-C Championship team last sea- son, their must be excellent basis for this idea. Let's get the ball rolling today.
 Around The High School Circuit
 Les Beland, the ex-serviceman who is playing right guard on the Sacred Heart basketball team, just got in under the wire as his 18th birth day was just after the first Sacred Heart game last week. Beland really adds much to be desired to the Red and Yellow quintet.
 It is very questionable if Johnny ''MeSsup" Moriskiewicz or Jimmy All-State Piersall will be able to work out with the Leavnworth basketball squad this week because of injuries sustained in the Sum- mer and Fall respectively. Both boys held down regular spots on the championship Leavenworth hoop combine last season and both are recovering from injuries to the arm and wrist.
 Tommy Brown, a Wilby High School basketeer, informs us that the Wildcats will field a very strong hoop array this season as they have several experienced players in the lineup. The Green and White have been drilling at the Wilby gym for the past two weeks.
 
 Coach BIl Tracy of Leavenworth is still trying to fill two open dates at the beginning of his season. The Big Red mentor has called Meriden, New Britain, Niddletown and Bridgeport in an effort to book two basketball games on the 18th and l7th of December, but has met with no success. High school teams de- siring to fill these open dates are asked to contact Coach Tracy.
 
 Hillhouse. which eliminated Leav- enworth from the State Baksetball Tournament in New Haven last season, will show at the State Armory against Leavenworth on January 9th. The local basketball coach wants to get some experience with some of these State opponents

 The situation could be solved if each school in the city or In the Naugatuck valley at least would appoint an assistant coach to handle Junior Varsity hoop team in their respective schools to play in the af- ternoon similar to the setup in the freshman league.

This teamwork that proved unconquerable during the war will also help us to win the peace, to keep America free and to create in our land proper stand ard of living for all our people.
 Calling for support of the Wag- ner-Ellender-Taft bill, MT. Green told the convention:
 "The emergency legislation for veterans housing, so acutely need ed, was firmly supported by the American Federation of Labor. but it did not succeed in supplying the new homes which were needed. "RepOrts W ere circulated blaming labor for the failure to build enough housing. Your leaders investigated this propaganda and found it cOm- pletely untrue. Housing Expediter Wyatt publicly proclaimed that tho building trades unions had waived conditions of long standing to speed the. veterans home construction program and that labor was making special efforts to supply the skilled labor necessary.
 ''The facts are that there is no labor shortage today in the con" struction industry, nor is there like ly to be. The real bottlenecks pre- venting the fulfilment of veterans housing needs are the continuing shortage of construction materials and inflati1n of real estate values which has resulted in the pricing of new homes far beyond the reach of most servicemen. Also there has been a lamentable surplus of con- fusion on the part of the large number OP federal agencies which are participating in the direction Of the housing program.
 "I urge the Veterans of Foreign Wars to join labor in supporting this bill because it provides for the encouragement of large-scaio housing projects at prices that the ma jOrity of veterans can afford. Un~ der this bill the construction indus try will again be able to under" take the building of rental hOusings which is not now being produced"
