By Bill Fuchs

Tech High School smashed its
way into a four-way tie for third
place in the District public high
football race yesterday at Central
with a $40 victory over Roosevelt
in a game marked ny flying fists.
Roosevelt Fullback Bob wilhelm
and Tech Guard Bob Green were
elected in the fourth period for
trading punches under the goal
posts as Tech pushed over its third
touchdown. wilhelm later required
three stitches in his chin and Green
displayed noticeably bruised nose.
AS for the game, witnessed by
$500, it was no contest, as Tech
jumped out in front on the first
play after the opening kickoff with
Ray Fox galloping 81 yards on a
fake reverse for a touchdown, scored
again in the second period and piled
up three scores in the final.
Roosevelt might have made a
better GAME OF it but for two heart
breaking plays near the end of the
first half. On one Halfback Leon
Baron recovered what he thought
was loose ball and ran 20 yards
across the goal. The play was called
back and Tech charged with an
illegal forward pass. A few minutes
later Dick Heishman broke through
the Tech line from his own 26 and
raced to the Tech 8 where he was
brought down from behind by Eddie
Herbert. The half ended before
Roosevelt could run another play
with Tech leading, 1870. Fox made
the second touchdown in the second
period again on fake reverse, this
time running SO yards.
The game. rough from the outset
heated up considerably in the third
quarter, with Roosevelt the worse
sufferer. A 15-yard penalty gave
Tech the ball on the Riders 2. Bob
Stewards first try through the line
failed, but on the next play he
crashed over and Wilhelm and
Green began mixing it up in a bat
tie Of their own. The drive covered
SO yards with the running of Stew
art and the passing Of Jerry Spind-
Ter highlighting the attack. Spind-
Ter connected to End Elwood Cooke
for two aerials which netted 20
yards.
Tech scored twice again, with
Benny 'Colandreo's 21-yard aerial
to John Wolfe good for one score
and an intercepted pass by Bill
Rogers plus another roughing pen
atty against Roosevelt setting up
the other. Rogers intercepted Heish-
mans pass on Techs 48 and ran
to the 1s. The roushine penalty
put the ball on the and John
Passas plunged over.

Need for Ability Stressed.
"The need for men Of outstanding
ability in the Government has never
been more critical" Mr.. Webb said.
He said the fact that the Govern
ment does not pay fair salaries for
top positions "has resulted in the
loss Of many competent men and In
rapid turnover in top positions.
AS an example Of an underpaid
official, Mr.. Webb cited the Veter-
ans Administrator, whose salary OF
$4,000 was fixed in 1880. Today,
he said, the veterans administrator
is responsible for programs affect
ing 100000 veterans, for a tre-
mendous hospital program and an
insurance business as large as that
of the Metropolitan Life Insurance
Co.
Mr.. Warren, in urging higher
salary for the President, said:
mo job in this world is more
grueling than the Presidents, no
soldier fights harder for his country
than does the commander-in-
II think strongly that both the
President and the Vice President
should receive a substantial in
crease in salary as well as additional
allowances"

Sharp Cut in Supports
Dy the Asseeio,sd pre.s

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Dec. l3
An Agriculture Department official
limited today that the Truman ad-
ministration may oppose q sharp
drop in future farm price supports
Frank K. woolley, deputy ad-
ministrator Of the Department.
Production and Marketing Ad-
ministration, told an American
Farm Bureau Federation conven-
ton that low supports could well
lead to wasteful overproduction.
1.-The departments thinking" he
said, "is that dropping price sup
ports sharply Is not a desirable way
to adjust excess production. In fact
the use of this device by itself could
operate to discourage the conserva-
ton side of the farm program"
Mr.. Wooley gave this clue to ad.
ministration thiking as conven-
ton Resolutions Committee strug-
gled to reach agreement on the
question Of the level Of future sup
ports. ..-
The whole issue Of price supports
and other farm-aid programs Is
expected to come up for debate In
the next session Of Congress.
Mr.. Woolley's statement was inter-
preted by farm bureau leaders as a
slap at the so-called Aiken-Hope
long-range farm law passed by the
Republican controlled Eightieth
Congress.
That law would permit a sharp
drop in price supports after 1s49
The Farm Bureau Endorsed the
support provisions of this act. But

SAVANNAH, Ca, Dec. 13.-South.
ern educators today set 5000, 900 te
9, ,000, 900 as the cost Of the Nations
first program for regional college
education.
But several Governors, assembled
Tor q Southern Governors confer.
ence here, said they would balk al
the figure.
Educators made their proposals in
conferences extending from early
yesterday into the small hours to.
day. They suggested immediate re.
gional action to meet acute" South
ern needs in medical and veterinary
training, graduate studies and edu.
cational research.
several Governors taking a lead
IN preliminary talks said they prob.
ably would whittle this down "a
about $4,000, 900 for q pioneering
share-the-cost plan in medical and
veterinary training only.
To Act on Plan Today.
The Southern Governors Confer
ence and an of1shoot, the Southern
Regional Council for Education

butions from IA Southern States

States not included, will be asked
to join.
Tonight the Governors will hear
DR.. John r. Steelman, assistant to
President Truman. Tomorrow they
Will turn to other Southern prob
lens.

Issues. Gov. Lane Of Maryland,

Federal Government to take over
the National Guard. Gov. Beauford
Jester Of Texas said he would

The south's battle against q Fed
eral civil rights program was not
on the Official agenda, but several

before the conference ends tomor-
row.
About 200 presidents and deans
from more than 100 Southern COL
leges, white and Negro, met in ALL
day conferences yesterday to help
draft the regional education plan.
One major question was q long
discussed plan to take over Meharry

vile, Tenn, as . complete regionally
operated and financed school.
II the plan Is abandoned, Meharry,
Howard and q new Texas medical
school for Negroes are slated to be-
come regionaly centers under pres
