plant and be transported to the
downtown area in about sixteer
to eighteen minutes; if he trans

entire travel time would amount
to ten to twelve minutes
If the extensions, which we
proposed, could be built dowr

With the establishment of the
underground traffic tunnel in
the downtown area, transfers
either from other surface lines
or from the underground sub

utmost speed and convenience
For instance, a person living ir

board a bus near his home and
be transported to the downtown

bus at st. Clair and Madison
proceed to the shopping plaza

he would be transported with ut,

Women who wished to come

would board the vehicle of the

Many Units TO
Vote Security

One-half of Local 12's Units
have filed petitions for security
clause hearings and elections as
required under the terms of the
ft-Hartley Act it was revealed
here this week by Local IL Of
ficers. The balance of the shops
are preparing their petitions at
the present time and will file
in the near future.
Shops which have applied for
National Labor Relations Board
hearings to set an election date
include Bingham Stamping, To-
ledo Porcelain Enamel, Peters
Stamping, Toledo Industrial
Rubber, Swartzbaugh and La
Clede- Christy. Toledo Pip e
Threading was scheduled to vote
on Wednesday of this week.
Butcher g. Hart Unit in its
NLRB election last week voted
overwhelmingly in favor of I'M
ion security.
Reports from all sections. of
the country indicate that the
security clause elections have
been overwhelmingly in favor of
retaining the union curity
clauses in contracts. This is a
reversal of the claims made by
many members of Congress who
expressed the belief before the
law was passed that union
people, if given an opportunity
would reject their union security
Every election held here has
been almost unanimously for the
security clause.

Rose BO,vL Contestants

Three of the four major bowls are
all set for big show.
The Cotton bowl, able to handle
$1,000, has S.M.U. as the major at
traction.
The Sugar bowl, now $4,000 at
traction, can look over the field
North Carolina, Georgia Tech, Geor-
gia, Missouri or possibly Tulane.
The Orange bowl, up around the
10000 mark, will have two of the
best teams in the country from the
nbeaten and united list. Certainly
the Sugar and Orange bowls won't
suffer with five or six strong teams
waiting to be tapped or tagged.
This brings us to the Rose
bowl. Michigan, the present
champion, can't 60. Neither can
Illinois, now one of the strong
er Big Nine teams.
1t begins to look as if Northwest
ern would be the Big Nine selec-
ton. Michigan has already crushed
Northwestern % to 0. Notre Dame
will do the same. Ohio State, Min
nesota and Illinois have already
been grounded too many times.
This takes US to the west coast.
California looks to be the best team
in that sector. If California goes
through unbeaten, will the Golden
Bears be willing to meet North
western? This depends on how much
or how little pride the West coast
has left. It's joke situation.
Other Contenders, Too
Now there's another Rose bowl
angle. Oregon, beaten IA to 0 by
Michigan, barely able to get by
Southern California and St. Mary's,
a one-point scramble, only has a
few more hurdles left.
Oregon hasn't lost conference
game. Oregon can lead California
by seven conference wins to six,
and thereby get the Rose bowl vote
under a rule which favors the team
that has been without a bowl bid
for the longer time. This is per-
feet comic opera situation, or could
be. This would leave California, pos
sibly the best team developed on
the West coast in many years, out
of the Rose bowl.
1t would bring together Oregon
and Northwestern, which would
plant the famous Rose bowl in num-
Der four position among the major
bowls.

swer, who does? He is 100 per cent
right about coaches and material.
He was also right about the n.y.
pocrisy of so many of the spotless
leagues who are after every good
football player in sight. Especially
where they have football scholar
ships. And big cash reserve.
1--WE have tough job at Navy"
Rip said. 1.-THE course is hard, both
mentally and physically with so
many long working hours day,
there isn't much time left for foot
ball. 1t is all tired concentration.
1--WE have an outstanding star

thing. He's leaving-can't take

Of young fellows here you ever

Great officer material.
"Too many good football players
today want it easy. Good pay and
little work. It's good job, if you
can get it. Only we can't offer them
any such set-ups."
One answer is they are aiming
