Tip to Send in Cerro Proves
Good One as CIV. Upsets G.U.
By MerreI! Whittlesey

lshot. Every time he went up two
big hands blocked the ball and US
ually they were Cerra's. Cerra also
wound up as the games leading
scorer with 13 points.
Ripley was not as upset last night
as he was over Georgetownis prev
ious defeats. The Hoya mentor said
his team was outshot all the way as
G. w. made more openings and then
made good on them. Danny Kraus
played most of the game, but he
was a liability at times and Ripley
sent him back to the hospital after
the game.
Kreisberg, Small Also Stand Out.
Zahn said the principal difference
in his teams performance last
night and in its losing effort against
Maryland was in making use of its
superior height, controlling the ball
and forcing the other team to make
wild stabs-and Cerra.
Cerra, who was high scorer in the
All-Brooklyn scholastic league in
1943, preceding Is months in the
Navy, played only few minutes of
the Colonials' previous games but
ne played more than anbody except
Jim Rausch last night. Barry
Kreisberg came through with his top
performance of the season, with Len
Small also Colonial standout. The
game was close only once, when the
Hoyas pulled up to 20-18 in the
first half, but G. w. never lost the
lead after Small's first set shot.
I G. WIS next stop is Southern
Conference engagement with Duke
Thursday in Durham. Zahn said

George Washington Basket Bal
Coach Art zahn, who has been say
ing all along that most coaches will
not know their squads until mid
season, is not above taking a tiE
from the players.
A few of the Colonials ap-
preached "Otts" last week and sug-
gested he make bit more use OF
Freshman Art Cerra. When it came
to stop Andy Kostecka and George
town last night, Zahn shot Cerra in
the game as second choice after
Kostecka made two baskets on &c
Gustafson and from that point
it was Cerra's and G. WIS ball game
The Colonials' 45-37 triumph over
the Hoyas at Uline Arena forced the
boys in the press box to take the
pledge-no more predictions. After
Maryland upset G.. w. last week ano
the Colonials came back to humble
Georgetown, they wouldn't bet to-
day was Tuesday.
Only 3,210 Turn Out.
The fact that George Washington
has pretty good team is the cause
for ittle-if any-excitement on the
G. w. campus. The crowd was
disappointingly small 3,21o because
only 600 of George Washington:
1880 students thought enough Of
their team to pay their way in-as

Zahn admitted he thought tn

Taber Says He Intends
To Balance Federal
Budget This Year
BY the Associoted Press

Adopting a why wait unit
next year?" attitude, Represent.
ative Taber, Republican, Of New
York said today he intends tt
balance the Federal budget "this
year"
Mr.. Taber, chairman of both tn,
House Appropriations and join
Senate House Budget Committees
already has disclosed plans to d)
use "Sledgehammer" on the 194s
budget and 90 resurvey all 1914
spending programs which still art
awaiting actual outlays of money.
He also has said he will dig into
appropriations actually voted by the
last Congress. The objective will be
to recapture some of the money moi
yet spent.
Big Cutbacks Indicated.
Shaking finger at OPA, the
Commerce Department and the
Army and Navy, the New Yorker
told reporter:
MY studies indicate very large
sums that can be cut back from ap-
preparations already made, affecting
many Government departments.
ALSO, I believe. the administra-
ton has underestimate revenues In
the current year by 81 1,000, ,000, 900.
"I believe We can balance the
budget this year as well as next
year"
The Treasury now estimates cur
rent year spending at $42 500, ,000, ,00t
and revenues at SAC, zoe, ,000, 900
leaving a deficit of around $4,000,
600 900.
President Truman's $37 SOC, ,000, ,00C
budget for the fiscal year beginning
July l calls for the first balanced
budget since 1880.
Too Long to Wait.
81 have talked with representa-
tives of many Government depart
ments and members of Congress,
he said. "Why over at OPA they
still have $4,000 employees, with 7,50O
doing absolutely nothing. There's
sample of what mean.
Then there's the Commerce De-
partment. Anybody can walk over
and see. They don't have to take
my word for it. A lot of the new
units are sitting around doing
nothing. There are setups in the
Social Security Administration that
need trimming.
"Over in the Navy they have some
setups where five men are doing
what one man should.
"One man I know took a walk
through the Pentagon and he
counted until he got to IS officers
and other (Army) employees. He
couldn't count per cent of them
working.
IT am finding that these samples
represent the usual picture"
Statement Called Unfair.
Spokesman for most of the agen-
cies Mr.. Taber cited were reluctant
to comment. However, Maj. Gen.
Philip B. Fleming, head of the Office
of Temporary Controls, said OF the
lawmakers criticism of OPA:
IT don't think that's a. fair state
ment."
Gen. Fleming, whose OTC was
set up to take over expiring war
agencies, told a reporter OPA still
has a job to do with rent and some
veterans housing controls as well as
sugar rationing.
Mr.. Taber has said previously he
wants to separate 100000 persons
from the Federal payroll.
Chairman Knutson of the House
Ways and Means Committee, author
of a bill to- cut individual income
taxes 20 per cent, said that if Mr..
Taber makes the savings he fore
sees then tax cutting will be easy.

Some of them think that the only

rights are the people of their own
religion-or their own race-their
own nationality-or their own
class. They stir up prejudice
against Americans whose race or
religion differs from their own

at jobs they can do. This is not
what the Declaration says. This
is not what it means.
Just the same. most Americans
do remember that the Declaration

fighting every day to make Amer
lea live by its truths.
That al men are created equal"
All men. That's what the Declara-
ton says-"alI men are created

them anywhere belongs to the

or the mineral. They are all
equal in what makes them men.
They must be so regarded.
