British Plan Cruises
Out Of New York in
Quest for Dollars

LONDON, Dec. (CDN) Brit
aims many plans to increase its
intake of dollars include assigning
one of its three big cruise ships to
operate out of New York for the
winter.
The Mauretania, which has been
substituting for the Queen Eliza
beth and the Queen Mary when
either is laid up for repairs, will
make a series of five cruises from
New York down through the Carib-
bean to, Havana and back.
The British Cunard Line hopes
to take in more than $2,500,000 in
United States currency during the
January, February and March
cruises.
This experiment is one Of the
many plans being pushed by Britain
to increase its dollar income so 1t
can buy essentials from countries
demanding dollars instead of pounds
sterling.
Company Needs Dollars.
On the Cunard Lines Atlantic
runs, most passages are bought in
British pounds. The company pre-
fers dollars.
The Caribbean cruises from New
York will touch Nassau, La Guayra
(Venezuela), the Dutch island Of
Curacao, Colon (Panama), Havana,
and return.
For 15-day cruises, passage will
be from $500 to $1,000. AL accom-
modations will be first class.
While Sthe Mauretania is fitted
to carry TOO passengers, the Cunard
Line hopes to have only about 300
luxury travellers for each cruise.
New Liners Being Built.
Much of Cunard's new dollar in
con ne will be from money spent
aboard these ships.
i The line hopes to roll in the dol
i lars as fast as 1t can In the next
\ three years before several proposed
modern liners are built in the
United States. 3d..
Meanwhile, plans for construction
of several ships, larger and faster
than the two queens, are being
drawn in an effort by the United
States Maritime Service to catch up
with Britain in handling trans
Atlantic and world passenger ship
ping.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL
 STARTING
By BOB GRuBR

NEW YORK, Sept. 2o.-tR'-Col- lege football sneaks in the back door today in it's usual early-season attempt to push baseball off the sport pages.
 The schedule-makers have cast aside tradition in some cases, and mot all of the several score open CTS are of the September warm up" variety. In fact, some of these games, come late November, may have a bearing on sectional or national rankings.
 Wnlie a certain number of big colleges open against comparative Ily easy opposition, the results of at least a half-dozen games are going to be watched for what tho politicians call significant trends. One of these is tonight's Penn State e-Washington State tussle at Hershey, Pa. The power packed Nittany Lions are regarded as one of the casts stronger teams, while the experienced Cougars may be a surprise team in the Pacific Coast conference race.
 Down at Oxford, Miss, Ken lucky and Mississippi get the Southeastern conference proceed ings off to an early start, with Kentucky's Wildcats slightly favor ed over aerial-minded Ole Miss if the going is sloppy.
 Kansas, favored in the Big Six conference, has a fought night game assignment in Texas Christ ian, although the Horned Frogs don't figure to cause much trouble in the Southwest conference race
 Kansas State also gets underway under the lights and the night air may turn the fortunes of the Wildcats, who haven't won a game since late in l944.
 i The opponent is Oklahoma A and M, turned down in a bid for Big Six membership and also look ing forward to better days.
 At Texas, where Blair Cherry has installed the T formation with Bobby Layne as key man, the Longhorns get their first test in Texas Tech. Two other teams seeking a return to power, Mis- souli's Tigers and St Louis U clash as Columbia, Mo. The Arkansas RaZorbacks, co-oWners of the { Southwest conference champion

WALLACE BERRY E IN STAR ROLE IN
 BILL AT CAPITOL

1 A big attraction comes to the Capitol Theatre Sunday with the showing of The Mighty McGurk" starring Wallace Beery in the role of a clustering ex-prizefighter.
 Beery, whose biggest screen tri- umphs during the past 33 years have been scored in roles with children, is teamed with Dean Stockwell, acclaimed for his DOT trayals in Anchors Aweigh' and "The Green Years The hoy ac- tor plans an orphan who idolizes and reforms the ex-pug.
 The supporting cast is headed by Edward Arnold, recently seen in Three Wise Fools" Aline Mac Mahon, who won Academy consid- eration for her characterization in Dragon Seed" Dorothy Pat rick and Cameron Mitchell.
 Arnold plays the owner of bar room. Miss MacMahon is the out spoken proprietor of pawnshop who has spent 20 years in trying to tame Beery, Miss Patrick is the romantic interest of the film, and Mitchell plays young fighter who turns Salvation Army cap tain.
 A natural for Beery, The Mighty McGurk" marks change of pace for him. Sprinkled with comedy and action, the screen story also offers the star a heart warmir.g, dramatic characteriza- tion.
