 It will take more doing to down Kentucky, National Collegiate Ath- letic Association champ.
 With four first-team men gradu- ated to the professional Indianapolis Olympians, the Wildcats still had enough left to drub Indiana Gen. tral 84 to 61.
 Lefty Jim Line dropped in 8! points, one short of the school re- cord held ty the great Alex Groza

to destroy the entire value of the weekend closure.
 Tt is therefore suggested that in addition to the openings in the heart walls now required by law, it should be mandatory to lift the outside wall of the pot at least 50 feet of the lead adjacent to the heart. Only by this or some other equivalent method can the salmon be assured of free passage through the maze of traps during the closed periods"
 These added regulations would tring enforcement problems to the fore. the board said, but pointed out that the FWS its willingness to rut more of its own men in the field to help. Thirty territorial em- rloyees would be available, the

N01RE DAME. GETS SCAR E. ON SATURDAY.

DALLAS, Dec. 5-R - Notre Danes gridiron champions are on the way home toasting the greatest four-year record in fighting Irish history-but take it from Coach Frank Leahy, they accomplished it in the nick of time.
 Next year, laments that rugged individual, his team can't hope to be half as strong as the l949 out fit which he called "the greatest team I ever coached
 Happy that they were able to finish four seasons without defeat while winning 36 games and tying two, the Irish still are talking about the thunderous game they had here Saturday when it required every ounce of drive and fight to turn back Southern Methodist 27-20
 From this years team-voted No 1 in the nation Leahy loses nine and one-half starters. And from the remainder of his first string 10 more depart.
 That one-half starter comes about in this manner: Bob Lally and Fred Wallner divided time at one guard position. Lally is through but Wallner has another year.
 Notre Dame is swept clean ot All-Americas. End Leon Hart, tackle Jim Martin, and fullback Emi (six-yardD Sitko, all are due to graduate.
 We will lose five games next year." Leahy laments.

 LIFT 50 FEET
 This it is recognized would not '-e practical for traps but the pre- sent method of lowering 25 feet 1t the heart walls on each side of the pot is not satisfactory from either the escapement or enforce ment angle. It is well known fact that under present methods of closure there is a definite holdup .of salmon at each and every trap which may vary from a few minutes to several hours, depending on tidal conditions. Where there are number of traps in the mi gratory path of the salmon thi. cumulative holdup may be enough

Range from North Enables Ship to Re ach Eurasian
 Fields of Russia

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5-tP-The far-flying B-36 bombers are under going some changes, suggested by two years of cold weather testing to enable them to operate from frigid bases in the Arctic.
 From such fields, the reach oi the lo,o00-mile range intercontin- ental tomber could be extended oeep down into the Eura ion lanc mass. Tn this vastn,ss Russia h reported to have tucked away atomic and other war goods manu- featuring plants.
 Taken in csaiunct oa with an other previously disc,o-cd pan, this would give the United States An Force doue,s-tarre,ed weaco- for wcrfare eyer tsc to9 C. tAt world.
 TOPPING OFF An Air Force official, testifying last summer before a Congressional committee, mentioned that "a typical polar operation might in volve aircraft taking off from United States air bases, the staging or topping off of these aircraft at forward base in northern Canada, Greenland, or even the polar ice cap"
 Obviously involved in this plan ming is the use of the aerial re- tueling system, by which medium tombers of the B-29 and B-50 type are given extended range through fill-up of their fuel system from tanker" planes meeting them at rendezvous points.
 Thus, targets in Eurasia would be within reach of either the B-36 or the B-29 ard B-5o types. Replying to a reporters questions about operation of B-56s in the Arctic, the Air Force said this tc- day:
 EXTREME CONDITIONS l. The big bomber has per formed satisfactorily under extreme weather conditions both in the experimental climatic hangar at Eglin Air Base, Fla, and under cold weather conditions in Alaska where B-36's have teen sent for the last two winters.
 2. AS was anticipated with a plane so huge and complex as the B-36, numerous operating prob lems occasioned by extreme low temperatures have been encoun- tered" The solution of the prob lens has resulted in changes in the B-36," but the Air Force de- clined to indicate what they in- volved.
