PTA Hears Parents
Use Movie Theaiers
As Baby Sifters'

A committee Of the District Con-
gress Of Parents and Teachers will
investigate complaints that some
Washington parents are using movie
houses as places to 9eave their chill
dren while they go out at night.
Mrs. c. H. Bennett, who pre-
sented the matter yesterday at a
meeting of the PTA Board Of Man
ayers, heads the committee.
Mrs. Bennett said one theater
manager reported it was not un-
common for him to lock his theater
and go home leaving a youngster or
two still waiting for parents. An
other theater official said there were
10 to IA children in his theater every
night for the late show, she went on
Children Seen Begging.
Another report was that children
had been seen begging adults fol
admission prices at theaters.
Many Of the children, Mrs. Ben.
nett said she had been informed
are too young to care for themselves
and depend on ushers to help them
with their coats. Youngsters otter
fall asleep in the theaters.
The problem is an old one, &C.
cording to Capt. Rhoda Milliken ol
the policewomen's bureau. Otter
the parents are young people who
cannot afford sitter, she said, ano
who don't seem to have relatives
available to care for their children
when they want night out.
Hazards Are Cited.
The hazards of the practice, she
pointed out, include the child's de-
privation of adequate sleep and the
chance that he might fall In with ar
undesirable" adult, although she
said the latter occurrence is moi
too frequent.
Capt. Milliken said when a chile
Is found alone at a late show, the
bureau sometimes talks with the
parents and attempts to work out
arrangements to prevent a repeti-
ton. Theater managers. she said
are doing the best they can to pro-
tect the children.

Citizens Group Would Add
More Nurses 10 City Staff

More nurses for the District Health
Department staff were asked by the
Cathedral hts-ClevelRnd Park
Citizens Association at d meeting
last night.
The group pointed out that more
nurses are needed for making the

port read by Owen B. French, presi-
dent, that one nurse served $500
District students as compared to one
nurse to 500 students in Sacramento,
Calf.
The association also asked that
the liquor laws in the District be
strengthened and that the number
of stores be limited. They urged
that the present restricted areas be
enlarged.
The group will elect new officers
at its next meeting.

Georgetown Prep to Boost Junior Golf Again
Host Tourney Starting Today School Aims Regain Links Lead

It's most recent graduates to make
national golf news was Jack Coyle,
runner-up in the Intercollegiate
this year and a big name in mid
western amateur golf. The Prep;s
top man last. year, Preston
Murphy, medalist and finalist in
the Metropolitan Schoolboy cham
pionship, starts at Notre Dame
next week.
The course has been consider
ably changed since the days of its
best golf teams. 1t measures
nearly 5000 yards, but is on the
tricky side. Dettweiler and Buddy
Sharkey played the old course in
66 each, but it will be up to the
Juniors to post a new mark this
week for the changed layout.
The Prep layout has been played
by number of professionals, in
Guiding Horton Smith, but official
Iy, at least, has been host only to
two women golfers, Helen Dett-
weller and Babe Didrikson
Zaharias.
Rev. Calvin MacKavanaugh,
coach of the Prep's golf team, re-
grets that the students do not re-
port until September 10 and thus
will miss the junior match play
open. But under Rev. William
Maloney, S. j., headmaster, ant
Rev. MacKavanaugh the Prep will
be strong contender for local
scholastic honors next season and
may turn out to be the stimulus

The District cannot claim more
than two male golfers between
the ages of II and-27 with any
great prospects in competitive
golf, so to prevent a recurrence
of the present lack of links tai
ents among the youngsters
Frank Emmet continues today
with his personally sponsored
Junior golf program.
With the exception of Billy
Griffin and Charles Price, who
are in the early-20 group, there's
a big age gap between the Brown
ellis, Bogarts, etc, in their late
20s, the present rulers of District
golf, and 17-year-old Bubby
Worsham and his future champs.
The District Golf Association is
sponsoring the first District
Junior match play open that gets
under way with an 18-hold quail
flying round at Georgetown Prep
today, but as usual with local
junior golf, it's Emmet who orig
mated it and Is pushing the
three-day affair.
Emmet is taking the youngsters
back to Georgetown Prep (where
he used to be general manager),
the school that set the pace a
decade or more ago when local
junior golf hit an all-time high.
The nine-hole course that sur
rounds the school on Wisconsin
avenue, halfway between WASH

ington and Rockville, was closed
for five years, but under Green's
keeper Reuben Hines, formerly
at Congressional and East Po-
tomac. it is in good shape. The
fairways are dry, but the greens
are surprisingly good.
In fact, the summer members
and guests that the prep school
allows to use the course while the
students are on vacation, were
Dragging that they were putting
on the best greens in town.
For five years, from 1880
through 1885, Georgetown Prep
was undefeated in scholastic golf.
1t challenged all Schools within
mile radius, sometimes played
as many as three matches a day,
but kept on winning.
Finally in May of '35 four
some from Roosevelt High School,
Bobby and Jimmy Brownell,
Andy Oliveri and Bob Morris
stopped the Prep's winning
streak. Three members of that
foursome were in the news last
week, Bob Brownell and Morris
for qualifying for the National
Amateur and Oliveri for captur-
ing his third city public links
title. Jim Brownell now is a Vir-
ginia farmer, doesn't own a golf
club.
Maury Nee, Billy Dettweiler,
Frank Allan and a host of others
were Georgetown Prep products.

SEE SMALL RESULTS
IN SPECIAL SESSION
ON EUROPEAN RELIEF

Washington (LPA)-With a vote
expected this week to authorize
stop-gap aid to France, Italy, Chi
ma and the occupied European ma
tions, attention in the Capitol turn
ed last week to the twin questions
what will Congress do about infla-
ton? and what will Congress do
about the Marshall Plan?
Drafts Of legislation to carry out
President Truman's 10-point pro-
gram against initiation are expect
ed on "the hill' some time this
week. Meanwhile, four Congress
sional committees have been hold
ing hearings to snipe at the pro-
gram, concentrating on the price
control and credit-restriction plans.
AS for the European Relief Pro-
gram, which has acquired the in
itials ERP for the sake of brevity,
President Truman expects late this
week to present the actual estimate
of requirements, our ability to meet
them, and a list of the Congres-
sional action needed.
The Republican leadership, mean
while, is preparing it's own anti
initiation program over the pro-
tests of Sen. Robert Taft (R., Ohio)
who a few hours after the Tru-
man message to Congress had is
sued blanket blast on govern
ment controls over the economy.
COP Congressman, worried about
the present rent control law, plus
voluntary" action by industry to
hold down prices, and tax cuts
which may look like relief for low
income families but will be weight
ed in favor of the wealthy.
Both Republicans and Demo-
Gratis were divided On the stop-gap
aid bills. Three Republicans (Lan-
ger, N. d., More, Okla, and Rob-
ertson, Wyo) and three Demo
Gratis (McKellar, Tenn, O'Daniel,
Tex, and Glen Taylor, Ida.) voted
against the European aid author
ization in the Senate. A sharp fight
in the House Rules Committee over
the measure took place between
Rep. Leo E. Allen (R., Ill.,, chair
man of the Rules group, and Chair
man Charles A. Eaton (R., n. J..
of the Foreign Affairs Committee.
Allen is bitterly opposed to any
aid to Europe. Eaton, also a Re-
publican, is very much in favor Of
the bill
Nothing except the stop-gap aid
authorization, which was schedul-
ed to be passed by Deg. / when
Congress met at the special call of
the President, is expected to be in
final legislative form when Con-
gressmen leave for their Christ
mas and New Years holidays on
Dec. 16. They return Jan. 6 for the

END FRENCH STRIKES
MARKS START OF FIGHT
AGAINST CP IN UNIONS

into trouble spots are being speed
lily withdrawn.
1t is clear that not only did the
Communicated National Strike
Committee, which is now officially
dissolved, take a severe licking,
but the prestige of the CGT itself
has suffered a grave setback. Leon
Jouhaux and his fellow anti-Com-
munist leaders within the CGT will
have hard struggle to bring back
into the CGT break-away unions in
many industries, and a still more
difficult time in persuading many
rank and file workers to renew
their membership in the union
movement. But they say this must
be accomplished if the nominal hold
of the Communist Party on Frances
principal labor federation is to be
broken. The seeding union of rail-
way workers has called for the uni
fication of the ti-Communist
groups outside the CGT.
The government and the popular
i-Communist forces have an i'm
portant victory but the fight is
not over. AS Jouhaux said at the
end of the strike: "We ask the new
government to adopt and execute
without weakness a program de-
signed against initiation, resulting
in an increase in production to a
maximum, and to an increase in tax
revenues, and a more effective dis
tribution of public expenditures 4. ;.
1t is in this manner, and not by
emergency laws, that an end will
be put to misery and to discomfort
and to agitation which is raised
among the workers and which
makes them ripe for efforts at ex-
plotting them for political aims"
Final point in the governments
strike settlement offer was one of
consultation with the National Eco
nomic Council, a sort of industrial
parliament, of which Jouhaux is
