CANIELLO, Italy.-Sergio fought
In the last war for his windowless
shack in this tiny Southern italy
town. Now he Is afraid a new war
civil strife between Reds and Demo-
Gratis - will shatter him and the
shack, too.
| Sergio had lost many teeth
through bad food before the war
and lost several others from a bull
llet. So his speech is hard to under
stand but his thinking is typical of
many Italians.
WAR" he said, between the
north and the south, the Reds and
the rights. I don't think De Gasperi
can stop 1t. Not even the old one
can stop It,"
Term Of Great Respect.
The "old one" was actually term
Of great respect. Sergio meant the
kindly, aging man in white who
came out on the balcony at st.
Peters on Easter to tell thousands
Of worshipping Catholics that they
cannot serve two masters. The elec-
ton, many believe, will not only
define Italy's political stand but also
how much of a place the Pope and
their religion holds in italian hearts.
Sergio Is afraid the words Of the
Pope will not mean much. And his
reasoning that civil war looms in
the near future is easy to follow.
In June, 1947, De Gasperi found
that the Communists, who had got
ten 10 per cent Of the votes in 1946,
were blocking all the governments
attempts to deal with Italy's chaos.
SO he excluded them from his cabi-
net and from power as much as he
could.
But should the Communists vote
this time rise to IS or 40 or even As
per cent, De Gasperi under his own
democratic principles will find it
hard to exclude so loud a voice Of
the people from his cabinet. He has
said many times he will not and
cannot work with the Communists.
With two parties nearly equal in
strength and unable to work to-
gether for the country, civil war to
many seems the only answer.
The Communists have already
threatened it. Red action squads"
have been organized and are waiting
for orders in Northern Italy. The
leader of Communist armed units,
Luigi Longo, has declared that If the
Democrats do not acknowledge the
results of the election, 1--WE will
chase them out as we chased out
others in our war of liberation"
Sergio has small garden and a

Attilio laughed. Soldiers with

"A little civil battle would clear

CAME HI-LITES

Despite the excellent work of
Bill Belshaw and some of the other
regulars, it was the work of the
second and third-stringers which
thrilled the fans in the 1918 VIC
tory over Genoa Thursday night.
The boys and gals who love their
football are already predicting big
things from Dick Blaskis, Bill Rid
die, Kenny Limestahl, Mike Clover,
Rudy Daniels and the other under
classmen in future years. Clover,
Daniels, Ronald johnson, Harland
Branum, Virgil Wiechman, Chet
Schaffer and Glenn Wood are
freshmen who are gaining valuable
experience this year.
Before the game started, three
husky Genoa gridders carried a
buddy across the field to the Ge-
noa bench. He was Cliff Reeder,
former Genoa gridder who was
crippled by polio last year. Cliffs
brother is a member of the 194S
squad, and the Genoa boys make
certain that Cliff sees every Genoa
game from the best seat in the
stadium.
Genoa's band is directed by Jack
Cooker. 1t includes % musicians
and the drum major, Jack Koch.
During the half-time intermission,
the visiting band displayed marked
ability at fast-time marching and
donations. After the traditional
"HI", "PC" and sc" formations,
the band formed "2" and "V" as
reminders to vote, and a large
pumpkin as Harvest Moon was
played.
Dads and Mons were honored at
the Genoa game, and the Port Clin-
ton band did right by the parents.
Wearing yellow and green covers
on their hats, the bandsmen formed
a tulip, placed their hats on the
ground and then walked away to
leave large tulip formation. AS
the band played when You Wore
a Tulip" the words were sung by
the excellent trio of Ruth Ever
son, Janice Scott and Barbara

AS it was the final home ap-
pearance of the band, Supt. D. D.

Another amazing, but timely
formation was the Little Rec

team is a victory next Saturday at
Norfolk over the San Diego Naval
Base Marines that would give them

Quantico will be seeking to rule the
Navy roost for the second straight
year. Yesterday in the mud at But
Ter Stadium here it captured the
East Coast title and racked up its
23d straight triumph by sinking Lit
tie Creek (Va) Amphibs, 1870. The
local Gyrenes dominated the game
throughout, scoring touchdowns in
each OF the first three periods while
not permitting the Amphibs to make
a threat.
Dick Ambrogi, former Naval Acad-
emy star and now Marine lieu
tenant made Quantico's first two
touchdowns, with the third by Joe
Tamillo, former high school star
from Duluth, MINI. Tamillos tally
was on the days longest sprint of
81 yards.
Just before families tally a

Young Bob Amos, promising De-

shape for his fight next Monday

phone yesterday.
Eddie Futch, Amos manager,
talked to Menendez from Nine.

where the Detroit battler is going

costing us to work up here" said
Futch, "but it will be worth it. This
is an important fight for Amos and
we want to be right for it."
Futch and Amos figure that vic
tory over Moore, who has beaten
most of the prominent light-heavy-
weights, will help make the path
upward smoother. Amos has an ex-
cellent won and lost record, but -
has yet to lick real topnotcher.
Moore, on the other hand, has been

Thanks to the Washington Lions
who have a solid grip on last place
in the American Leagues Eastern
Division. the Indianapolis Capitals
are out of the Western Division cell
lar. Last nights setto at Uline
Arena between the loops two bot
tom clubs resulted in 6-3 triumph
for the Caps. That moved them
of the bottom and point ahead
of Cleveland, which doesn't get a
chance at the soft-touch Lions for
nearly a month.
1t was an even game at 2-2 going
into the final frame, but the Gaps
added three more goals before the
Lions inserted tally. Last-period
Indianapolis scores were by Gordie
Haidy, Nelson Podolsky and Pat
Lundy before Norm McAtee con-
verted a pass from Kenny Schultz
for Washington's last counter. Sec
onds before the final horn Ed Bren-
teau added a sixth goal for the
Caps.
Washington scored a goal in each
of the first two periods, Phil Vitale
sinking the first one and Schultz
the second.
