Groups Named 10 Offer
Draft Deferment Plans
In Scientific Fields
By John A. Giles

The Government agencies that
have had different ideas about
draft deferments for scientists and
college science students were max
ing an attempt today to agree on an
overall recommendation to local
Selective Service Boards.
Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey an
nounced yesterday the appointment
of 20 educators and scientists to five
committees, charged with drafting
recommendations for men engaged
in or studying agricultural and bio
logical sciences, engineering, the hu-
manities, physical sciences and social
sciences.
Co-ordinated Action.
Draft officials emphasized the &C
ton was taken with the ''co-ordina-
ton" Of John r. Steelman, assistant
to the President; the Interdepart-
mental Committee on Research and
Development, and the Research and
Development Board, unit of the
military establishment. All have
taken an interest in the subject.
The Interdepartmental Committee
has been reported to advocate the
deferment of all such scientific stu
dents on the ground they are vitally
needed at this time. DR.. Steelman
is understood to support this po-
sition. The Research and Develop
ment Board recently entered the
picture with the appointment of a
special committee to study the prob
lem.
Selective Servnce, looking to the
time when its manpower pool will
be much lower, does not look with
favor on mass deferments of any
group. Gen. Hershey, in a speech
before the committee, commented
that "manpower is not unlimited"
He said the groups proposals will
not be orders to local boards but
only recommendations.
$1,000 Involved.
Officials have estimated that as
many as $4,000 students are in
volved. All such students now are
deferred for one year under the
draft laws provisions.
The committees, which were or
ganized at the meeting yesterday,
include:
Agricultural and biological SCI
ences: DR.. Leland w. Parr, George
Washington University School of
Medicine.
Humanities: DR.. Charles e. Od-
gard, executive direction Of the
American Council Of Learned Sci
ences here.
Physical sciences: Thomas B.
Nolan, assistant director, Geological
Survey, Interior Department, and
Dr.. r. c. Gibbs, National Research
Council here.

Atcheson and others who persisted
would be alive today.
Normally. it is no trick at all for

Net 2c Award Per PosfhoIe
By the Associofed Press


DECATUR, ul.-Postholes are vir-
tually dirt cheap in this area. About
2 cents hole, to be sure.
This little figure has been reached
by Macon County court jury in a
condemnation suit brought by the
Illinois Power Co.
The case got into court when
some land owners objected to having
the power lines on their property.
A posthole was figured to take
up about 1/2,000th of an acre. So
the jury decided that Farmer Oscar
French was entitled to 8 cents for
the equivalent Of four holes on his
property. His land was valued at
$500 an acre.
Farmer John F. Stretch, whose
land was valued at $3.50 an acre, was
awarded 1e cents for holes for 10
poles.

N0Ire Dame Tested
Rv Northwestern

NOTRE DAME, Ind, Nov. IL
Coach Frank Leahy's Notre
Dame Fighting Irish will attempt
to get over their biggest hurdle
Of the season here Saturday
when they entertain the North
western Wildcats in the 28th
meeting between the two teams.
Kickoff time is slated for 1870
pm. (CST).
Interest in the game is prob
ably higher than ever before
in the many years the two teams
have been playing what with the
Irish unbeaten and Northwestern
having suffered but one setback.
The Notre Dame eleven will
be seeking to extend its unbeat-
en- streak to 26 games and will
be after its goth straight win. If
successful, it will tie former all
time Notre Dame marks.
The all-time series between
Notre Dame and Northwestern
has the Irish in front with %
wins, three losses and two ties.
Notre Dame won a year ago, 26-
19. The closeness of the series is
more clearly illustrated by the
fact that in more than half of
the previous games, ID to be ex-
act, the two teams were separat-
ed by margin of nine points or
less. The first game was played
in 1889, Notre Dame winning,
90.
Concerning Saturdays game,
the Irish, as has been the case
for the past few weeks, may be
somewhat handicapped by in
juries. Emil Sitko, star right
halfback, suffered severely
bruised rib against Indiana last
Saturday and was not expected
to be ready this week until at
least Thursday, if then, Terry
Brennan, first string left half the
past three years, has been on the
sidelines with a bruised knee
since the Iowa game, three
weeks ago. Larry Coutre, num-
Der one reserve for Sitko, has
been out since the Navy game of
two weeks ago with sprained
ankle. Reserve left halfback Err
ME Zalejski has also been spec
tator since the Middle contest be-
cause of the recurrence of an
old knee injury.

ledoans goal line in the last
minute of play.

up against the powerful Big
Reds, Walter Gunlite, lie; Harold

field Bobby Sarchez went in at

Jim Zettner, rh; and Vic Irvine,
fullback in place of "Porky'
Jennings, who is nursing an in
jured knee.
The first half ended with
neither team crossing their OPP
ponents' goal line. However, in
the third period, the Local II
All-Stars started to click and a
pass, Sarchez to Ewing was
good for 80 yeards. Several
pluges by Vic Irvine netted the
Toledoans sizeable gains until
the Unionmen worked the ball
to the Adrian one yard line. lr-
vine carried the ball to the two
inch line and on the next play
Bobby Sarchez hit the center of
the line for the score. Harold
RAIDER tried to kick the extra
point but the ball went wild.
Adrian could do nothing
against the strong Local II line
so the Michiganders took to the
air where they completed a few
short passes. AS the All-Stars
presented a stubborn defense,
the Big Reds were forced to kick
and each time Local IL gained
yards.
The game ended with the ball
in Adrian's possession on the
Local IL 17-yard line and the
score still 6 to 0 in favor of the
Union team.
