New House strategy on displac-

eral major concessions designed to
make such bills more paIatable to
the very bitter opposition raised
during the last session to any bills
affecting present immigration reg

The House Judiciary Committee
has been working on the draft of
bill originated by Rep. Frank
Fellows, Maine Republican and

quota each year may be used in
this way until the "mOrtgaged"
quotas are all accounted for.
This feature of the bill is con-

influx of immigration over and

On the other hand, it represents
the chief point of disagreement
between the Fellows version of DIP
legislation and bill being prepar-
ed by Congressman James G. Full

Javits, of New York, both Repub-
hcans. Fulton and Javits, whose
bill would admit 100000 DPS, do
not want to see the future immi-

The nationwide study, covering
the 1947 period, was made public
by Jacob Grumet, national chair
man and Arnold Forster, director
of the Leagues Civil Rights Divis-
ion. It analyses and evaluates the
trend of anti-Semitism in all Sec
lions of the United States, coord-
mating reports received from
train field observers.
While Americans overwhelming
ly rejected association with pro-
fessiOnal anti-Semites, and there
was less "Organized" anti-Semitic
activity than in previous years,
the public nOEetheIess exhibited
a disturbing lack Of insight into

survey declared.
It noted that there was mo wide
denunciation" or Expressions of
resentment" by the American COM
munity where "obvious acts of an
anti-Semitic nature were prompted
by the 'gentleman's agreement
type of bigotry-an unfortunate
trend on the American scene"
Major findings which the League
recognized as disturbing were:
1. A tendency among respon-
sible sections of society to accept
public figures previously cOnsid-
cred unacceptable"
2. An increase in employment
discrimination.
8. Greater discrimination in
housing, with increased use of
racial and religious restrictive COW
enants in new BODYBUILDING de-
velopments.
4. Widespread use of racial and
religious quotas in screening appli-
cants for admission to colleges and
professional schools.
S. An increase in the practice
of excluding Jews, as a group,
from many hotels and resort areas.
6. Widespread circulation of
approximately IS anti Semitic or
suspect newspapers, in addition to
other types of 'hate" literature.
Z. Increased anti-Semitic senti-

Johnny Sain, Boston Braves
Highlander, has reached the half
way mark in his bid to become the
first National League pitcher since
Mort Cooper to win 20 games three
years in row.
Sain, native of Belleville, Ark,
pitched the league-leading Braves
to a Al victory over the New York
Giants yesterday for his 10th victory
He's the first senior circuit finger
to win 10 this season and now has a
1915 record.
The soft-spoken 2e-year-old hurler
has won seven of his last eight starts
and appears cinch to reach the
coveted 20.
The Boston ace held the Giants to
four singles yesterday. Two of them
helped produce the Giants lone run
in the opening inning.
The Braves tied the count in the
second on Bob Elliott's sixth home
run and won it in the seventh when
Tommy Holmes belted three-run
double.
Cards Nosed Out by Cubs.
The victory enabled the Braves to
increase their lead over the runner
up st. Louis Cardinals to 2l2 games.
The Cards dropped a 4-3 decision to
the Cubs in Chicago.
Andy Pafko drove in all of Chi
cago's runs. doubling home mark
er in the first and blasting three
run homer in the seventh.
The third-place Pittsburgh Pi-
rates knocked off the Reds, So, in
Cincinnati and jumped within
half game of St. Louis.
Ageless Fritz Ostermueller throt-
tied the Reds on six blows while the
Pirates slapped Harm Wehmeier
Tommy Hughes and Walker Cress

The Philadelphia Philiies pulled
within one percentage point of the
fourth place Giants by beating the
Dodgers, Al, in Brooklyn behind
Schoolboy Rowe.

Harvard, Yale Crews
Renew Strong Bids
For Olympic Spot
BY the Associotsd Press

PRINCETON, N. j.. July a.
After two strenuous days of rowing,
which served only to eliminate four
OF the original IL crews, the experts
still were looking for some reliable
dope today as the Olympic crew
tryouts moved into the semifinal
stage
The "repechage" or second-trial
system, installed this year for the
first time wiped out the upsets of
the first day and gave two beaten
fsvorites chance to get even.
Harvard and Yale, beaten the first
cay after being picked as the East's
main hopes, we're back in the run
ming through repechage victories
Each was lined up against the
crew which had upset it the first
time out.
In today's first heat. Yale was
slated to meet its conoueror, Prince
ton. and the only surprise winner
Of the second day. the West Side
Rowing Club of Buffalo, N. Y. Har-
ward, beaten by Cornell Wednes-
day, got second crack at that
rival today. The third heat pairing
sent Washington against California,
a west coast natural. The three
victories viii go into the final race
tomorrow.
West Side Crew Surprises.
Yesterdays three second trial
heats didn't produce any real races
The West Sides, in upsetting a
slightly favored Wisconsin crew, won
by the narrowest margin-about a
half length. Harvard, rowing with
impressive strength at a low beat,
led Navy across the line by length
and half and Yale's fast-stroking
eight beat Massachusetts Tech by
slightly larger margin.
In the best race, Wisconsin
squirt in the last quarter mile
brought the Badgers shell up al
most even with the West Sides.
Then Russell Slaper, the club stroke
oar, lifted his beat to 40 and the
West Side shell jumped ahead again.
The results left little basis for
comparing the semifinalists except
the impression gained by watching
them row. Harvard, we'll matched
eight has looked consistently good
The Harvard oarsmen all are De-
tween 1873 and 191 pounds and be-
tween 6-l and Ga in height. Wash
ington, tall. rangy crew averaging
6-31a inches, is comparatively light.
The Huskies. however. were good
enough to win at Poughkeepsie and
rowed smoothly and powerfully in
their trial heat here.
