Princeton Coach Sees
Chance 10 Throttle
Improved Harvard
BY the Assoeiofsd Press

PRINCETON, N. j., Nov. 4.-Nc
national titles will hang in the bal
ance at Palmer Stadium Saturday
but the test between Princeton ano
Harvard probably will 60 long
way toward deciding the mythical
Big Three" crown.
Both schools got off badly, but
Charlie Caldwell, Princeton mentor
and Art Valpey. Harvard coach, are
looking forward to the tussle with
something less than pessianism dor
football coaches, that Isl.
Valpey's Crimson outfit slapped
down Holy Cross last Saturday
while Princeton, which looked any
where from bad to miserable at the
start of the campaign, tripped vir-
ginia. =
"It's too much to expect for us to
look as good as we did against vir-
ginia," Caldwell laughed today. I'VE
did everything right in that game
We have finally begun to hit our
stride, and I think we have q
chance to beat Harvard"
Few Surprises Likely.
Caldwell, whose team was rated
an ivy league dark horse before
the season got under way, hastened
to add:
"Of course, anybody has a chance
these days. Harvard has q good
solid football team which can pass
and run. Their makeup is about
the same as last year when we beat
them, but I think they'll be lot
tougher"
Up in Cambridge, Valpey had
some observations. of his own.
1T will be hard for either team
to pull any surprises, because we
both use systems that stem from the
same origin" he said. I'VE looked
good on defense in beating Holy
Cross, but slipped badly on offense.
The victory can be attributed to the
six reserves who filled in for our
regulars"
Harvard Scorers Numerous.
The Crimson was in bad shape
physically against Holy Cross. but
this week is figured to be better.
In addition to most of the injured
men coming back, there will be some
time for practice this week. There
wasn't last week.
One thing that has Caldwell puz-
zled: Who Is he going to watch for
as the big offensive threat to the
Tigers? No fewer than 10 men have
contributed to the Harvard scoring
column, and Valpey said he hopes
to have a couple of more on the list
before the season ends.
Only Doug Bradlee, left tackle,
will be missing when Harvard takes
the field. Doug has been out for
two weeks, and Valpey said he is
not sure when he will return.
Caldwell's Tigers also are in good
physical condition. Only John Pow
ers, who has been on the sidelines
since for two weeks, is on the doubt
full list, and he has been taking
| light workouts and may be able to
get In at his fullback slot.

Marshall Plan 10 Ease

By the Assoeiofed Press

ROME, July 29.-America's multi

an expensive bulwark against Com.

Success of the Marshall Plan, says
one ERP official, could:
1. Ease the shortage of building
materials and many other goods ir

2. Win new friends and influence
people in Eastern Europe.

should break the log-jam in trade
among European countries.
"By restoring confidence and the
flow of goods among the European
nations, some Of our shortages back
home may be eased.
For example, by reviving a large
volume of lumber and steel exports
within Europe, the United States
would not have to drain eff its
own supplies. Yugoslayia has ex-
portable surpluses of lumber, Italy
has coke, Poland has coal and Bel

CRUCIAL WEEK - Barring an
extra session of Congress, there are
only six days remaining for Con-
gress to take action on Federal pay
raise legislation.
There's no doubt that the over
whelming majority of House and
Senate members would vote in favor
of pay legislation.
But the catch is that the House
leadership can keep the measure
from going to the floor if it wants
to. And thus far. House leaders have
indicated that they will bottle up
the bill in the Rules Committee.
The only chance remaining is that
the Senate will take prompt action
in the early part of the week. as
promised by Senate leaders. and
pass the pay bill. This would put
the House leadership on the spot
and it would have to take a stand.
Some Government employees
groups threaten political retaliation
against the Republican Party next
November if the legislation is not
approved. Federal union officials say
Government employees and the
members of their families comprise
about 100000 votes, which is a
sizable block.
Republican members are joining
the Democrats in the House in
needing the leadership for prompt
action. The latest Republicans to

ForrestaI Asks Study
OF Transport Merger

Long-range studies of the air,

problem of merger as highly COM

The Joint Chiefs of Staff are

Involved not only are the vast
fleets of ships of the Army and Navy

two services and the nonscheduled
plane operations of the Air Force
and Navy.
During the war the Army's Trans
portation Corps, for instance, oper-
ated trains to ports, the embarka-
ton ports and its own ships. If the
Navy is to take over all Waterborne
transportation, the question arises
as to just where the Navy should
assume command-at the port of
embarkation or only after the ships
are loaded. Staging operations in
waftine are complicated.
Mr.. Forrestal recently divulged
before the House Appropriations
Committee that the Navy was mot

friend of Government workers, has

So when the bill came up on the

Senator LANCER felt that it would
