NEW FlSHERMEN'S
 CANNERY WORKER
 UNION ORGANIZED
AFL Forms New Resident Fishing Industry Workers
 Union 10 Replace AMWU

Formation of the United Alaska Fishermen and Cannery Workers Union, AFL, was announced today by Ken Bowman, Alaska organiz- CT for the American Federation of Labor and the Seafarers Interna- tional Union.
 William R. Walton, of Sitka. has been named as temporary Presi- dent of the Union and Peter Mel sen of Sitka has been chosen as temporary Secretary-Treasurer The UAFCWU will maintain headquart- CTS at Sitka.
 Bowman said that the UAFCWU was formed primarily to solidify and unite AFL efforts in the AL aska fishing industry. The new union will get its start in the First Division with an initial mem bership of approximately 2,000 workers and hopes to reach a total of 5000 members in this division It IS merging With the old AF'L Alaska Marine Workers Union, which is being abandoned.
 UAFCWu hopes to branch out to the other divisions later and merge with the AFL United Fishermen of Kodiak, Upper Cook Inlet and Lower Cook Inlet The latter un- ion is a former CIO union which joined the AFL fold last year Bowman hopes other CIO locals will follow suit to make the new union stronger.
 The new union will concentrate on a membership composed pri- marily of Alaskan residents, all though ron-residents will not be excluded. Bowman said this con- firms the AFL policy of establish ing local unions within areas where workers actually live and work, giving complete self-govenment and autonomy to the locals.
 Its policy" he said, will be to work primarily for the best inter-

Bill Heck Recall
By Lewis F. Atchison

"I've been, around" the stout
gentleman was saying with a
twinkle in his eye. II had the
mount on Eugene P. Levering's
Guardian In the last jumping
race run at the old Benning track
finished second to Tommy Tay-
lor on Essex. Look 1t up If you
doubt ne, it's in the record. Oh,
I ce i tell you some stories, and
T i'll some time when we get a
lance to sit down and have a
.ong talk together"
Billy Heck smiled and arched
his eyebrows in a knowing way
while his fingers drummed fast
cadence on the desk.
Tell him about the voyage you
took on Noah's Ark" ribbed Kelly
Miller, equipment manager for
the Redskins.
That's all right boy" replied
Heck, taking the jibe in stride.
''I could tell him about the time
I was in Joe Cans corner at
Goldfield, New, when he beat
Battling Nelson. And when we
stepped off the train at Balti-
more I got a good whaling from
my father for it right in front of
the crowd that came down to
welcome Joe home.
My father was a big, strapping
man who stood 6-feet-3 and
weighed over 200 pounds, and he
really gave it to me-"
Heck's face lighted up as he
recalled the incident. His dad
was a great friend Of AL Her
ford, who managed Cans, Wash
ington's own Kid Sullivan, Young
Peter Jackson and a host OF
other great ringmen OF that era,
and growing up in that sports
laden atmosphere naturally made
an all-around fan of young Billy.
The family lived close by the
Pimlico race track and Heck
grew up knowing and loving
race horses, too.

when John Hancock won at
100-1. OF course, I wasn't sup
posed to bet, but he was good
thing and I couldn't let him get
away from me, so I had a dollar
on his nose"
Heck was riding at Marlboro
in those archaic days when the
nearby half-mile track included
jumping races on its programs.
He was about II then, as close
as he can. remember, and while
his 145 pounds were too heavy
for fiat racing he was as much
at home on a good jumper as
your grandfather in his favorite
rocking chair. One of his buddies
and fellow jockeys at the time
was Frank Brown, son OF the
Maryland Governor.
Billy can talk sports until the
cows come home. He claims the
distinction Of having the first
promoters license issued in
Perth Amboy, N. j., and has a
barrel of stories about those
hectic days.

Coach Dorais Dropped
|By Grid Lions; Sale
0fCIub Uncertain
BY the As,eei1isd Press

DETROIT, Jan. 9.-Whether the
Detroit Lions are nursed into the
1948 National Football League sea-
son by Fred Mandel, jr., or new
owners, one thing was certain
today-they will not be coached by
Charles E. <(Gus) Dorais.
Mandel. in move believed to
add strength to suggestions he
would retain control of his profess
sional grid entry that lost 20 of "a
games in the last two years-as well
as sizable piece of money-few
into Detroit yesterday and bought
up the remaining four years of
Dorais' $25, ,000-a-year contract,
probably for close to $4,000 cash.
Since Mandel, through a clause
in the contract, could have settled
completely with Dorais on the basis
of half years pay in case the club
was sold, his action in buying up
the balance OF the agreement was
solid hint that his present plans
are to keep the club at least for an
other season.
Dorais 'Wen Satisfied"
Another angle, of course, is the
possibility that clearing up the
muddled situation with his coach in
advance may be condition of sale
of the club to a seven-man Detroit
syndicate which has been dicker-
ing with Mandel for a month.
Lyle Fife, spokesman for the syn
dicate which has indicated it will
seek a franchise in the All-America
Conference if it can't obtain the
Lions, said that he talked with
Mandel again yesterday, but had
nothing to report regarding the pos
sible deal.
Flies group offered Mandel an
estimated $175,000 for the Lions two
weeks ago, but the offer was turned
down.
Previously Mandel had said that
Dorais was through as coach of
the Lions, although his contract
continued through the 1851 season.
Mandel and Dorais had a secrecy
agreement regarding the terms OF
yesterdays settlement, but Gus was
described as well satisfied with
the payment.
Two Likely Coaches Named.
The names of Bob Winslow, 1947
backfield coach of the Lions, and
Wally Butts, coach at the Univer-
sity of Georgia, were linked with
Dorais' post if Mandel keeps con-
troll of the club.
1T won't be Frank Leahy OF Notre
Dame or Ed McKeever of San Fran
cisco, that's for sure" Mandel said
Rumors had connected both with a
possible shift to the pros.
Dorais said that his ties with the
Lions now definitely are severed,
that he had no plans for the future,
but would 'rest" for awhile.
Maybe I'll get out Of football
and into private business" Gus
said.
He has been q football coach for
SO years since his graduation from
Notre Dame, going to the Lions in
1943 from University Of Detroit.

Bill Heck Recalls Epic Goded Bout Rode in Lost Chose at Bennng

"I1l tell you about them, too,
when we have more time," he
promised. Especially the time
the sheriff was after one Of our
fighters and his manager grabbed
the purse before the fight and
swan the river to keep the law
from impounding his money"
Heck now is the handspring
in the Athletic Equipment and
Renovating Co. and in that
capacity is able to combine busi-
ness with pleasure. The company
cleans and repairs sports equip
ment for schools, colleges and
professional teams all over the
country and it's quite a task.
During the war when equipment
for civilians was at a premium,
Heck's outfit played major role
in keeping sports going. The
company does work for teams as
far away as Hawaii and does it
within a week. The plant is at
New Rochelle, N. Y, and keeps
busy the year around with a staff
of expert tailors, harness-makers
and shoemakers.
Modern equipment has had a
tremendous effect on sports"
Heck contends. We've got bet
ter, safer games, faster times,
ETC., because the equipment is
better and schools have found
it pays to keep their material
in first-class condition. That's
our Job and we take care of
schools of all kinds. Our clients
range from one little school that
gives us $50 worth of business
a year to the big universities
whose accounts run into thou
sands of dollars
There are little tricks to the
trade, such as painting football
cleats with a mixture of graphite
and gasoline to keep mud from
clinging to them.
But that's another story
said the roly-poly Heck. "I'n
tell you about it when we've got
more time to sit down and have
a nice, long talk"

Eastern-Coo|idge Till
Tops Two Twin Bills
In High Court Play

High school basket ball schedule
makers have come up with a cou-
pie OF nice features for today's open
ing Of the District public high title
series. Two games this afternoon
and two more tonight at the Ar
mory are sending all eight teams
away in a chase after the title held
for two years by Coolidge.
What may be the best game OF
the four is the Coolidge-Eastern
tilt, opening the night double-head-
er at 8 o'clock. Eastern's Ramblers
are seeking revenge for the way
the Colts manhandled them in the
championship game last year, and
this is a chance for them to get it.
The Colts apparently aren't SC
strong this season while the Ram
blers are mentioned prominently as
title contenders. Last year Eastern
beat Coolidge during the regular Sc
ries, only to be swamped by II points
when the chips were down in the
playoffs.
Another promising feature is the
Central-Wilson game closing out
this Afternoons double-header. Both
have teams seeking title recognition
Central with fast, tall squad and
Wilson with a good starting five
that needs only more reserve
strength and the return of Pat
O'Neill, now sidelined with a leg
injury, to make itself a real factor
in the race.
The other two games on today :
program were Western against
Roosevelt, opening the afternoon
program and Tech against Anacos-
tia in the nightcap.
Another top-grade schoolboy bas-
ket ball race getting under way to-
night is the Virginia Group l North
ern Virginia High School League
involving George Washington g
Alexandria, Washington-Lee of Ar
lington, Fairfax and Lane of Char
lottesville. G. w. won here last yeal
and reached the State finals.

fax and WI. at Lane, both start
ing at 8 o'clock.

Lights Worry Kramer
In Indoor Tennis, but
He Still Beats Riggs
BY the Associated Press

SOUTH ORANGE, N. j., Jan. g.
"The toughest thing about playing
indoors is the lights" says Jack
Kramer, last years national anna
teur tennis champion, who now is
making things hot for Bobby Riggs
on the professional circuit.
Kramer has completed 10 days OF
his Nationwide tour with Pro Titlist
Riggs, and, after getting off to a
bad start, has forged into the lead
with six victories against four set
backs, following last nights 3-6,
IS, 60 victory over Riggs here.
Big Jack, star of the United
States Wimbledon triumphs in ~,
is getting his first taste of indoor
play, and, surprisingly, maintains
that he is not having nearly as
much trouble getting used to the
canvas as he is acclimating himself
to the arcs.
"It isn't the same as basket ball
or other indoor sports" Jack eX-
planned today, because the tennis
ball is considerably harder to fol-
low. The smoke in the arenas makes
for a haze, with the result that
sometimes the player can hardly see
the ball-and that goes for Bobby as
we'll as myself" s>.,. -
The court the pair is playing on
is being carried from city to city on
the tour and Jack said he has come
to like competing on the canvas
For one thing" Jack said, "the
bounce on the canvas is faster than
on any surface with the exception
of wood and sometimes is even
speeded up more when it is stretched
out on the concrete bottoms OF
arenas"
AS a novice in the pro game, Jack
said the second most disturbing
thing he finds is the constant travel
ut seems that all you ever do is
eat and sleeper run for trains,
he laughed. "It's a heck of lot
harder grind than the comparatively
soft life of an amateur playing at
one spot for an entire week, then
making leisurely journey to the
next STOP"
Riggs?
Bobby is not like the amateurs
I've played" Jack said. Maybe he
can't hit as hard as some of the
topnotchers, but he certainly is con-
sistent. If you're not at the top OF
your game on any given night, he'll
trim you and sometimes when you
are at your best, he'll beat you
anyhow"

athletic authorities, but he admits
freely that he's interested in the
Washington job and thinks he may
be in line for 1t. And he's willing
to listen to any one else who is
around making offers. He expects
to meet representatives Of West Vir-
ginia and Nebraska, but doesn't
know what these talks will lead to.
Meanwhile, there was reliable
talk that if Odell leaves Yale. at
tempts will be made to sign Herman
Hickman, Army's line coach, as head
man at New Haven.
Il have talked with the people
from Washington and I'm sure that
I am at least one of the men they
are considering" Odell said today.
But I want to emphasize that I
always have gotten along very well
with every one at Yale. They have
been wonderful to me there.
But as a professional coach, !
think I might do better at Wash
tngton or some other college Yale
is an old-line school and is very
uncompromising in its attitude
toward athletics. Every boy who
enters Yale has to be in the top 10
per cent of his class and you know
you don't find a lot of good football
players there. Besides that, when
he enters he has to take on bur-
den of about $4,000 a year in ex-
penses.
"One of the surprising things to
me is that we get as many good
football players as we do. We get
maybe six every year. In the last
few years we've had more and that
would make it still more enbarras-
sing to me If should leave now.
My successor might have tough
time and there could be talk about
my reasons for leaving.
1T do, it won't be because Of any
difficulty with the authorities or
the alumni; just because I am a
professional football coach and I
think l could do better financially
and in the coaching field
Yale's athletic director, Bob Kip
muth, said yesterday Odell was
free to leave Yale if he wants to,
even though his appointment has
three more years to go before 1t
expires"
