Russia Informs u. 5.
Barrier on tourists

By Stefan Andrews

{ r
The Commerce Department has
been informed Soviet Russia viii
permit the first American postwar
tourists to enter the country py
spring OF next year.
simultaneously, 1t was disclosed
the frst big batch OF American
Observation-Disclosures SO and 100
win be permitted to go to Leningrad
next July to attend the holding OF
the first Russian fur sale since the
end Of the war.
The two moves, revealed for the
first time today, were hailed both
by Commerce and State Department
oficiaIs as f1eralding the resump-
ton of the peacetime practice OF
exchanging cultural and business
visitors on large-scale basis Win
the Soviet Union.
Ernest C. Ropes, chief of the Com
merce Departments Russian TRADE
Division, who returned recently from
= visit to the USSR, said he has
been told by Soviet officials that
only lack of hotel and travel accom-
modations prevented them from
opening the country Immediately to
tourist travel.
Negotiations Begin.
By spring of 1948, he said the
Russians informed him, they expect
to have considerable part of wartime
devastation cleaned up and hotel
accommodations provided in sum-
cient quantity to permit a gradual
influx of tourists.
He stressed, however, that. the
Russians themselves emphasized
that spring of 194S would be the
earliest" they could get started on
the tourist program.
Although State Department OH
ciaIs were informed of this plan
only late yesterday it was under
stood the Soviet Intourist Agency
had been negotiating with two
American travel agencies for some
time to handle the United States
travel contracts.
In New York, Louis Berdansky,
president of the World Tourist, Inc,
told the North American Newspaper
Alliance he already had signed a
contract with Intourist representa-
tiyes to handle Soviet Amerl-
can tourists. But he said no VSas
had been issued yet. -.
Mr.. Berdansky announced he had
booked between so and 100 Amerl-
can businessmen to attend the Len
iflgrad fur sales He said this was
different from the tourist contract.
The Russian purchasing agency.
Antorg, itself was inviting business
men to come to the auction sales.
State Department officials said
they believed this is the first time
since the end of the war that Amer
ican businessmen have been invited
to enter the USSR in such great
numbers. Heretofore, Amtorg has
restricted entry to several at a
time.
The plan to let tourists in next
spring was regarded as even more
significant. Officials said this might
be the first "big break" In the
Soviet stalemate over a
broad reciprocal exchange OF stu
dents, scientists and other visitors
between the two countries.
Nose Harvey, consultant on Rus
sian affairs in charge Of the cultural
exchange program, said the depart
ment had been working on the ex-
change plan for more than year
and things now looked hopeful"
that it might finally be consm-
mated.
He said only handful Of Ameri-
cans have been permitted to visit
the USSR thus far, and these gen.

RALEIGH TO TIE
EASTERN A IA
Conference Standings

Fayetteville, exhibiting one Of
the best offensive teams in East
ern Glass AA Conference history,
notched it's third straight loop
victory over the Durham Bull
dogs Friday night 1876 in Soldier
City to keep Bill Dole and his
eleven in the undefeated class.
Nub Smith, the outstanding
prep pigskin prospect in Eastern
North Carolina, scored his 18th
touchdown, raising his point total
for 1947 to 80. He got away for
second quarter, driving across
that lone tallying trek in the
from the eight yard stripe. Other
I'D makers were Malcolm Yates,
who scampered % yards, and
Howard Cheshire, who blasted his
way through the Durham for
ward wall from the four. Able
Williams converted only once in
three attempts.
A Fayetteville tumble set up
Durham's only touchdown in the
fourth quarter. One play netted
10 yards, and then Dickie Poe
tossed an aerial to Lloyd DeLona
in the end zone.
Raleigh, runnerup to the Bull
dogs in the conference, failed to
penetrate a stubborn Goldsboro
line at Goldsboro, and was held
to a Sc tie. This marked the Sec
ond deadlock for the Caps. The
Fayetteville tilt is the key one
remaining between Raleigh and
the championship. Touchdown
scorers in the tie were Westbrook
for Raleigh and Westbrook for
Goldsboro. The Raleigh West
brook countered on a pass, while
the Earthquakes Westbrook went
over on a ground play.
The Wilmington Wildcats, with
their lineup shifted around, look
ed impressive in battering the
ECTC Freshmen, 1910, at Legion
Stadium. The MINIS play puts
them back in the running for the
championship. If they can do as
well next week a Goldsboro,
chances are that the Cats can
make things hot for both Raleigh
and Fayetteville after their poor
start.
Homer Brewer, Jimmy Piner,
Irwin Gore, Charlie Smith, and
Bob Lewis played brilliantly TO
the Wildcats.

Two of Charley's scoring

Goes
Into Clouds
For Victory

ATLANTA, Oct. 18-R-Geor-
gia Tech took to the air today
for three touchdowns after a 49,
yard scoring sprint by fullback
Frank Ziegler to down a plucky
Auburn eleven, 27-7, and remain
undefeated in four football
games.
The Tigers braced at their goal
on several occasions but Tech
took to the overhead to accom-
plish what the ground attack
couldn't. The Jackets, in yielding
their first points of the season tc
an 8O-yard scoring drive engi-
neered by Travis Tidwell's accu-
rate passing, held the upper hand
throughout. A crowd of $4,000
looked on.
Ziegler, a sophomore with
speed and power, hammered the
Tiger lines to shreds except in
the shadow. of the goal. There
Auburn was a stubborn outfit
and twice repulsed threats when
Tech had first downs at the
three-yard line and the two.
The Tigers lil/wise were held
at bay on several occasions. Once
when a tumble gave them a
chance at the Tech "a and again
at the Tech 81.
The Jackets scored twice in
the first period. Ziegler broke
over center on first down to race
SO yards for a score with a con-
voy of six teammates guarding
his wake.
Two minutes later Tech drove
SO yards to score on a courtyard
pass, Joe Brown to George Brod-
max.
Early in the second period.
Auburn went 80 yards, mostly on
bullet-like passes from TidweIl
to Ray Williams and Bill Wad
dali. A 33-yard heave to Wad-
dali reached the Tech 13. It'd
well hit Williams with a toss at
the two. Tidwell sneaked over
and Bull Cochran converted.
In the third period Tech re-
covered an Auburn tumble at the
Tiger II and Jim Still passed IA
yards to Bob Jordan for a score.
Tech scored again on the final
play of the game, a four yard
pass from George Mathews to
Red Patton, who was unguarded
in the end zone.

BRUTAL TEXAS
SOCKS ARKANSAS
IN LOOP CLASH

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Oct. Is. -
RThe mighty Texas Longhorns
displayed a brutal ground attack
today to smash the University
of Arkansas 81 to g., and mark
their fifth successive victory of
the season and their first in
Southwest Conference play.
he great Bobby Layne's pas
sing powers were laid aside as
a drenching rain fell on a crowd
of $1,000 in Crump stadium
which was "home" for the Ra-
zorbacks for this one day.
Texas smashed across the
goal three times, travelling Is,
Sc and Y yards after being jolt
ed by the fancy footwork of
Arkansas Clyde Scott who sped
AZ yards for a first period
score.
Two of the Longhorn touch
downs were scored by Raymond
Jones, hard running fullback
from Houston, and one by half
back Randall Clay-all on bone
rafting drives from the one
yard line.
Texas, in keeping within the
ranks of the nations best, pre-
scented a fast, hard charging for
ward wall that completely domi-
mated the conflict and enabled
such ball carriers as ] a m e s
Canady, Byron GilSry and Billy
Pyle to gain virtually at will.
E%ighty-four times Texas car
ried the ball compared to Ar
kansas "a and they racked up
IS first downs to the losers
three-those in the final minutes
of play via desperation passes.

AT QUARTERBACK
BY GENE WARREN
Star-NeWS Sports Writer

Switches involving Homer
Brewer, Jimmy Piner, and IT.
vim Gore paid off Friday night
as the New Hanover High
school Wildcats, after a sour
showing against Raleigh,
smothered the ECTC Freshmen
$50, Friday night before ap-
proximately 1850 enthusiasts,
who still believe Wilmington
can win the Eastern Conference
championship d S pite the
teams bad start.
The changes are what reaped
the victory. Brewer, handling
the right halfback role for the
first time this season, dazzled
ECTC with his uncanny running
style and deceptive change of
pace. Gore, back at his old
slot, played a grand
game and spanked his team
mates.
Piner, however, was the boy,
who should receive more credit
than any other for the Wildcats
waking up. Running the quar-
terback job with only two days
of practice, Jimmy looked bril-
liant. He handed off smoothly,
passed very well considering
that he has never tossed a pig
skin in a game until Friday
and directed the clubs
attack as no other boy has been
able to do this season. On one
occasion Piner called a fake
punt play, faxed the ball to
Brewer SO well that three ECTC
men tackled Brewer, and then
handed it off to Jim Gibson for
20-odd yards.
Jimmy has now played more
positions than any other Wild
cat player under Coach Leon
Brogden. He came out as a
guard in 1915, was shifted to a
halfback, and ended up the sea-
son as the first string quarter
back. In 1916 Brogden moved
Piner from quarterback to right
halfback. Then this campaign
Jimmy was slated for the right
half duties again until Brog saw
no one but Piner could handle
the team from quarterback in
a suitable manner. Rumors say
Piner already has had an offer
to go to N. C. State College
when he graduates.
Bob Lewis, the 6 #. 3 in. left
end of the Wildcats, has been
the most improved player on
the team this year. He was re
garded as only a bench warm
er when the campaign started,
but has worked past Linwood
Taylor, Fritz Stelljes, Corky
Bolton, Billy Quarles, and Nor
ris Moore for a starting berth.
His pass snagging gives the
Wilmington club a good aerial
offensive.
Charlie Smith, who got in on
only three plays in Raleigh,
took the spotlight again Friday
night by blazing for this fifth
touchdown of the year, a So
yard run in the third quarter.
With Smith and Brewer, two
break-away threats in the same
backfield, the Wildcats can let
60 for touchdowns from any
part of the field. Jim Gibson
played his usually fine game on
the defense along with Piner.
Next week the Wilmington
club will see if it's showing
against ECTC stands up against
Conference competition. Colds
boro is on IT, menu and the
game will be played in Colds

against the Wildcats.

Working Girl

HERE ARE SOME simple hairdos,
"A designed especially for the work
ing girl.
What the average working girl
needs, some of the country's best
known hair-stylists contend, is a coif-
fure that she can maintain with a
minimum of home care and without
too many trips to the beauty parlor.
Home hairdos are not Just amateur
experiments in the life of working
girl. Early in her career she realizes
that she cannot look nice only three
days a week; she must be at her best
every day. Lacquered tresses may be
fine for the big party in the evening,
but they are decidedly out of place
in an Office or store.
For any girl half the battle is won
when, with proper consultation, she
finds the hairdo most becoming to
her. Then she should learn how to
make it stay neatly combed during
the day
II you have hairdressing problem
perhaps these suggestions will be
helpful:
You should be systematic in caring
tor your hair, SO that it always looks
neat. A good liquid shampoo with
hair conditioning action is the first
step. Ask your hairdresser how to set
your pin curls so that you can perform
this operation yourself. Vigorous
brushing comes next, followed by care

Tons Of Fish Dumped

As Red Tide SweIIs

CLEARWATER. Fla, Aug. "a
new onslaught of the Red Tide"
the scourge of fish along the middle
of the Florida Gulf Coast, his this
area today causing health official
to term the smelly fish situation as
the worst yet"
Collections of fish described by
beach residents as "by the ton" were
cast up by breakers at Madeira
Beach, but DR. Franklin E. Campbell
Pinellas County health director, said
the condition was bad all along
the Pinellas beaches-It's really
pretty bad"
DR.. Campbell cautioned I'VE want
people to stay out of the water
to avoid rash and sores"
Coast GHardsmen Help.
Coast Guardsmen joined county
workers in disposing of the fish,
some Of them still tapping, which
had been hit by the strange Red
Tide" that has killed millions of fish
in coastal waters since it began
its devastation about month ago.
The smell was bad. Vacationists
complained that gas rising from the
carcases caused coughing spells and
hampered efforts to get rid of the
fish.
Many new dead fish were mixed
with the tumble of skeletons and
skins of fish killed sometime ago.
Exact location of the main body
OF the tide" was not known. Aerial
observers were to fly over the Gull
this afternoon to check progress of
the long mass of discolored waters
and dead fish.
At Tampa, Representative Peter
son, Democrat. of Florida, said he
was "prodding" Federal agencies to
determine what's causing decima-
tion Of fish along the Gulf Coast
from here southwark to Sarasota.
Investigation Urged.
Mr.. Peterson also said he had
urged the War Department to in
vestigate reports that poison gas
had been dumped into the Gulf and
set off the fish-killing attack.
At Miami, one of the marine life
experts who investigated the fish
deaths, said the red tide" could af-
feet humans only indirectly.
DR.. F. G. Walton Smith, director
OF the University of Miami marine
laboratory, says the tide is caused
by a tiny micro-organism, Gymno-
dininium Brevis. so small that a
quart of water can contain 10000 900.
Or. Smith said he and co-workers
had entered the discolored waters
containing dead fish without i'll
