WALLACE, Oct. l - During
this particular tour of duty I'm
supposed to keep you informed
about the goings on of the Wal
lace Tobacco Market, which
believe to be a sort of promised
land for farmers who're looking
for the well-known and clicheo
top or high dollar for their to-
bacco.
But I think it's about time
somebody was telling you about
the Wallace High School football
team.
So-o-o-o, here you are: To be-
gin with most of the boys who'd
ordinarily go out for football
and other sports around here
begin almost from the cradle in
the fairly important life bust
ness of making a living. Don't
get me wrong. I do not mean

Deamon Deacons Work
On Offensive Drives

WAKE FOREST, Oct. 1.-P-
Coach D. c. Walker, still work
ing to instill more offensive
drive into his Wake Forest De-
mon Deacons in preparation for
meeting Clemson Saturday, wa
encouraged today by the running
of two substitute backs.
In the offensive drills thai
took most of the practice time
today, Bill Gregus, freshman
tailback, and Carl Haggard
wingback, managed to ge1
through for a number of long
gains. George Prior, the number
one fullback, also made a num-
Der of nice gains.
The Deacons suffered two
other injuries during a bruising
scrimmage yesterday. Center

University's Blue Devils moved
another step closer to their i'm

with Tennessee's Volunteers to-
day with a spirited VIC kout the

for the Brogden Boys and from
all indications the Wildcats are
making all possible preparations
to start the conference M;ars off
with a victory.
Last year the locals managed
to exc out a 6 to 0 victory over
the Birds in a hard fought bat
tie. Both clubs are reported to
be in good condition for the
scrap and a bang up gridiron
tussle has been forecast.
Yesterday afternoon the field
was full of players and the air
was full of footballs as the
coaches ran their charges through
all the plays in the book. Scrim-
mage, passing, punting, T form
alton drills and other tactics
employed on the a-:idiron were
given to the lads.
Another sham battle is slated
for this afternoon as the Wild
cat coaches strive to whip the
squad into tip top condition for
the all important conference bat
tie.
The Blackbirds, under the
crafty coaching of E. E. Adkins,
are expected to operate from
the single-wing and short punt
formation. With this in mind
Brogden has been spending a
lot of time devising a method of
stopping the Blackbirds.

activities as the boys in Will
mington, say, do. 1 do mean,
though, that a good many of
them start out pretty young to
learn all about how to make
good tobacco, cucumbers, corn,
and a lot of other such items
that grow on farms.
You see, Wallace, with a pop
ulation of around 1900, is es-
sentially and primarily a far
mer's town. 1t is, in fact, one
of the best farmers towns any,
where in the State from the
standpoint of outlets for agricul-
tural products and as a trading
center. Therefore, Wallace High
school draws a great many of
its students from the surround
ing farm area. And a good
many of these students, natural
ly, have a lot of farm and other
chores to perform. They can't
give their completely undivided
attention to football and such
matters.
Even so, the boys here, under
the tutelage of Coach Thell Ov-
erman, a former Guilford Col
lege star who did postgraduate
work at Carolina and picked up
a lot of coaching know-how from
that Old Gray Fox, Carl Snave-
ley, have been impressive in
their first two starts this year.
They scored a total of 81 points
to nary a one for two opponents.
They licked Jacksonville q to
0 in their first start and they
smashed Warsaw last Friday 40
to 0
Soaking wet-but without any
thing on but their birthday suits
the first team fielded by
Coach Overman weighs in at an
average of lat pounds. That's
pretty light in the football bust
ness. These youngsters, howev-
er, make up for their lack of
avordupois with speed and alert
ness.
Coach Overman has taught
himself a pretty good quartet of
starting backs in Casey, James,,
Carlton, and Herring. Herring,
Jimmy, that is, has developed
into a toe artist when it comes
getting that extra point after a
touchdown. In 10 tries this year
he's booted points eight times.
The line is lighter than it pos
sibly should be but the boys
hanging on to the teachings Of
Coach Overman, are rapidly
learning the tricks of blocking
and so far they've used these
tricks we'll. What they'll do
when they come up against
stronger opposition is something
else again. But they haven't
given cause to complain up to
now. In the line are Roger Ack-
erman at right end, Max Morri-
son at right tackle, Co-Captain
Max Skies at right guard, M.
B. Pope, center, Jimmy Powell,
left guard, Thomas Townsend
left tackle, and Charles Carr at
left end. Coach Overman has a
high regard, too, for Earl Jones,
his tackle replacement who's
seen about as much service as
Morrison and Townsend IN the
line.
Next Friday the boys take on
Mt. Olive there in an Eastern
Central Conference game, Wal
lace being one of the eight
teams in that conference. The
big game of the season will be
played in Wallace against Gin
ton Oct. 10.
Other games on the local
schedule this year are La
Grange, there, Oct. II; Burgaw.

it flows through the heart chambers
while doctors take X-ray films. The
fluid shows up on the films, tracing
the flow of blood without injury to
the patients heart.
Through this technique, doctors
are able to diagnose obscure heart
and chest ailments which yield no
clue to simpler methods of examina-
ton. Sometimes q patient is thereby
spared an unnecessary and danger
GUS operation; sometimes the need
for surgery is confirmed. Originally
developed by DR.. Robb and his asso-

developed at Mount Alto.
The research center will provide
consultation service in heart disease,
according to the Veterans Admins
tration. 1t will accept selected pa
tients, who require special diagnostic
procedures not available elsewhere.
DR.. Robb, the units chief consult
ant, has been prominent in the
study of heart disease for many

Scientific Board Offers
3-Point Program for
Research Traininq

Declaring that economic pres
sures are the main factor hamp-
ering our scientist training at ali
levels" the Presidents Scientific
Research Board yesterday told
President Truman that an adequate
training program is the only alterna-
tive to "a serious impairment OF
all scientific effort in the years
ahead
The board headed by John r.
Steelnan, presidential assistant,
suggested the following three point
program:
l. Obtain financial support for
colleges and universities to enable
them to expand and improve facili-
ties and equipment, and to increase
Institutional stats and raise
salaries.
2. Develop a broad program for
support of basic research in higher
educational institutions.
3. Build up a national system OF
scholarships and fellowships to con-
tinue Federal support of students
as the benefits under the G1 Bill
of Rights expire.
IF we do these things promptly
and only If we do these things
can our scientific future be assured,
said the board, in making public
the fourth of a series of five re-
ports on expansion of scientific re-
search. In an accompanying state
ment, President Truman recalled
that the field covered is at present
the subject of study of the Presi-
dents Commission on Higher Edu-
cation"
The report said that the "scien-
tific progress of the Nation depends
on about one-half OF l per cent
of it's population-some 100000 per-
sons" comprising the trained man
power concerned with operation and
expansion of "our chronological
economy"
Summing up, the board said:
THE shortage of highly skilled
scientists is the product of sharply
increased demand accompanied by
less -than-normal supply'-a condi-
ton stemming from wartime edu-
cational curtailment.

Last-Minute Meetinq
Called in New York 10
Avert Transit Strike
BY the Assoc;otsd Press

NEW YORK, Oct. 11.-A hastily
summoned meeting of officials of
the third Avenue Transit Corp. and
the Transport Workers Union, CIO,
at City Hall today appeared the sole
hope Of averting a strike of company
employees set for am. Monday.
Company and union officials were
asked to meet with Theodore
Kheel, director of the city's division
of labor relations. by Mayor William
O'Dwyer, who said "a strike would
deprive over a million passengers
of their regular transportation to
and from their homes and places
Of work."
The company runs bus and trolley
lines in Manhattan, the Bronx and
lower Westchester County.
A strike vote, approved unan-
imously last night at a meeting Of
1900 day workers, was similarly
approved today at q gathering of
800 night men. Austin Hogan, pres
ident of the union local, said
stewards would meet tomorrow to
make final plans and that all en-
ployes Of the company would be ex-
pected to report for strike duty
Monday at depots, barns and termi-
mails.
The strike vote was taken after
union officers reported to the men,
berShip that the company had made
no counteroffers to union demands
for 25-cent hourly wage boost, a
company-paid welfare fund, three
week vacations after five years of
service and other benefits.
The company has maintained that
present revenues would not permit
1t to meet union demands. Current
wage scales were not announced.
Mayor Stanley Church of New
Rochelle said strike would ter
ribly cripple" the city and offered
his cooperation to Mayor O'Dwyer
in attempting to reach settlement.

men now must type out reports In
addition to making the checkups.
If the 80 additional civilian en-
ployes asked in his budget estimates
are authorized, he said, 1t should be
possible to reduce the number OF
license men to one in each precinct
from two to four now needed.
Maj. Barrett pointed out the in.
creased use Of civilians was part OF
his overall program Of placing the
maximum number OF uniformed
men on the streets in regular pa
trolls as crime deterrent.
Many men who could be walking
beats now are spending their time
in the station houses, tipping out
reports, he said. All precincts have
at least one man SO assigned, he
pointed out, and the first, second
and third precincts have two each.
In addition, Maj. Barrett added,
other men often must be called in
off the streets to catch up on back
logs of precinct paper work.
Trained Civilians Much Faster.
He said the men best qualified
were used for clerical work, but few
in the department could perform
such duties as speedily as a civilian
trained for them as full time oc-
cupation.
Asked whether he had considered
using civilians as patrol wagon
drivers, as has been the practice IN
Baltimore and some other cities,
Maj. Barrett said there was merit
in such a system.
He said he had made no budget
request for personnel to fill such
jobs but pointed out policemen
driving patrol wagons would be
more valuable on beats.
Civilian drivers probably could be
hired for about half the salary be-
ing paid the members of the force
now on wagon duty, he suggested.
Maj. Barrett explained Baltimore
and other cities using civilian
ul 1NClS SlfC CllClll UllC oGdGuS VI APC-
cial policemen within narrow limits.
He said this was of value in certain
cases in assisting regular members
Of the force. -...
Paper Work, Reduced.
A substantial reduction in the
amount of paper work at headquar-
ters has resulted from the system
of handling complaints to his Office
inaugurated when he took COM
mand of the force, Maj. Barrett re-
ported.
He recalled he had assigned Corp.
Lewis Peters as clerk IN his Office to
receive complaints about police serv-
ices with authority to forward them
to officers concerned by telephone.
This system had been found salts

favorably by district inspectors and

Fight for JAW Contro'
To Liven clio Session
Opening Tomorrow
By the A,soeioied Press

BOSTON, Oct. 1l.-A slashing
fight for control Of the CIO United
Auto Workers was attracting the in
tereSt of delegates arriving today
for the labor organizations ninth
annual convention opening Monday
The fight may elbow its way into
the proceedings of the convention.
1t could even cause the first elec-
ton contest in the history Of the
CIO.
Never before has a CLIO conven-
tion voted on the officers of presi-
dent, secretary y-treasurer, or the
nine presidents. These things
have always been argued out in
advance SO that only one candidate
appeared for each post.
This year 1t happens that two of
the nine vice-presidents are from
the UAW. <
Reuther to Oppose Thomas.
They are Walter Reuther, UAW
president. and r. J. Thomas, a
UAW vice-president.
Mr.. Reuther and Mr.. Thomas are
expected to oppose each other for
UAW president at the UAW conven-
ton starting November 10 in At
lantic City.
In fact the UAW political cam
paign Is In full swing. 1t is typical
UAW campaign. That means it is
wild and savage. Mr.. Reuther is not
only seeking Reelection but is seek
ing majority OF the UAW execu-
tive board-sOmethlng he doeSn t
have at present.
The Reuther forces, strongly back
ed by certain other CIO unions
such as the textile workers, would
like to knock Mr.. Thomas out of
his CIO vice presidency.
Thomas Prestige at Stake.
They are talking about running
o. A. knight against Mr.. Thomas.
Mr.. Knight Is president Of the CIO
oil workers.
Whether Mr.. Thomas succeeds in
holding onto his CIO Office is ex-
pected to affect his prestige within
the UAW-and therefore affect the
UAW political campaign.
Most of the CLOS family squabbles
have been fought out in private
meetings this week. And not much
in the way of fireworks is expected
in the convention itself. The r. j.
Thomas issue-unless compromise
is reached in advance-may be an
exception.
Philip Murray is expected to be
elected CIO president again by &C
clamation. He will begin his eighth
year in that post.
