Tricky Split on

BY the Assoeiofsd Press

CHICAGO, Aug. 1.-THE tricky
split-T formation, which is an
other way Of saying Bud Wilkin-
son. will be the principal weapon
of the College All-stars when
they take on the Philadelphia
Eagles tomorrow night.
Wilkinson, head coach of the
All-Stars. used the split-T in
plotting his University Of Okla
homa team to q Big Seven Con-
ference football championship and
a Sugar Bowl victory over North
Carolina last season.
He has made it known that If
the formation can befuddle other
college teams it ought to be worth
a good try against the National
Football League champions.

game, for the righteous cause OF
charity, is expected to attract

1948 collegiate team was coached
by Frank Leahy of Notre Dame.
The all-star lineup was still a
secret as the team went through
its final practice session today.
In support of the basic split-T
offense, Wilkinson was expected to
give such great passers as Notre
Danes Frank Tripucka. Michi-
gan's Pete Elliott. Oklahoma's
Jack Mitchell and Oregon's Norm
Van Brocklin a fairly free hand
in their speciality.
The Eagles, naturally. will ex-
pect passing when Van Brocklin
is on the field, but they'll have to
do a bit of guessing about the
tactics of Tripucka and Mitchell.
Coach Greasy Neale brought his
Eagles to Chicago today from
their month-long training session
at Grand Rapids, MINI. He sched-
uled a secret workout under the
lights at Soldier Field tonight.

Administration 10 Push
|FEPC Showdown With
1--we on Political Profit
By the Associofed Press

Administration De ocra S
counted today on swift political
profits to flow from plans for a
civil rights showdown in the next
session of Congress. which will
begin January 3.
Senate Majority Leader Lucas
says the showdown will come in
the Senate on a bill to set up
permanent Fair Employment
Practices Commission. The agency
would have power to enforce its
orders against race and creed dis
elimination in jobs.
The FEPC bill will offer the
most serious affront to Southern
Democrats and widen the breach
that already splits that party. At
the same time, some administra-
tion leaders hope it will prove
politically embarrassing to Sen
ator Taft. Republican. of Ohio.
Senator Taft, dubbed by some
of his friends as "Mr. Republi-
can," is against the bill now on
the Senate calendar. He plans to
offer, instead, a measure to set
up a Federal FEPC to obtain VOL
untary compliance with anti-dis-
elimination rules.
FEPC Called Prime Measures
Senator Taft has said the ad-
ministration bill would create a
board that in the long run will
tell every employer how he must
make up his labor force"
The National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People
and other groups interested in the
civil rights issue have made their
stand clear; they are more inter-
ested in the FEPC bill than COM
panion measures to abolish State
poll taxes and to make lynching
a Federal crime.
And FEPC is a red flag to the
Southern Democrats. They will
throw every effort into the at
tempt to block it in the Senate.
In the House a similar bill has
cleared the Labor Committee and
is tied up in the Rules Committee.
Chairman Lesinski of the labor
group has announced he will try
to bypass the rules blockade.

Here were greeters, well wishers,
excellent hotel accommodations
