Soft Policy Charged.
II cannot explain it, but the
State Department Division of Far
Eastern Affairs is definitely soft
to Communist Russia" Senator
McCarran asserted. After adding
that he agreed with Senator
Bridges earlier comments, SEN
ator McCarran continued:
This soft attitude toward Com
munist Russia is definitely present
in the Far Eastern Affairs Divis-
ion. When our own State Depart
ment peddles the Communistic
propag ganda line as in the case of
the departments assertion that
Mao Tse-tung, the Chinese Com
munist leader, is not a real CAm-
munist, it ds time something was
done shout II. 'ss 'vsssa
The State Department withheld
comment on Senator McCarran's
statement as a whole. Press Officer
Michael j. McDermott said he
knew of no one in the department
who had said that Mao was not
a real Communist.
Senator McCarran painted a
gloomy picture of the situation
that would develop throughout
Asia if communism prevails in
China.

MY proposal" he said. sis not
based on any desire to do some
thing for China, but Is based on
the urgent necessity of taking
positive action against communism

enlightened self interest.
IF communism takes China
completely, communism will take
all Asia. If Japan is denied access
to the markets and the food sup
plies of China, this nation will be
forced to give up its position In
Japan, not for military reasons.

moves out of Japan, the japanese

communism or starve. She will
not choose to starve;. and with
Japan under Communistic domi-

Ice Cream Company
Warehouse Damaged
By Spectacular Fire

A spectacular, three-alarm fire
which sent flames more than SO
feet into the sky early today
partially destroyed the roof and
upper floor of a two-story ware
house of the Garry Ice Cream Co.
at Fourteenth and D streets Sc
The fire was believed to have
started from an incinerator. and
a local alarm was sounded at 1927
am. with other alarms following
in rapid succession as the flames
gained headway.
While an unusually large
amount of District fire apparatus
was assembled at the warehouse
blaze, fire broke out in Takoma
Park in six condemned row houses
in the 200 block Of Lake avenue
The homes had been vacant for
four months and there was nc
estimate of damages.
No Injuries Reported.
A mistaken report that the fire
was in the j. Enos Ray School at
Ray road and New Hampshire
avenue brought out additional
equipment from Silver Spring
Mount Rainier and Brentwood.
In the warehouse fire, flames
broke through the foot
roof Of the warehoues and lighted
up the surrounding area for time.
The fire was combatted by Is en-
gine companies, six truck COM
panles and WatLI tower and a
rescue squad crew. No one was
reported injured.

The brick building had a wood
and slate roof approximately 60
feet high in the center and 40

black panther may have proWled
the streets of South indianapolis
last night. Police aren't sure.
Armed officers combed the area
where several residents reported
seeing the silky marauder. But
the big cat, if it was there, stayed
beyond the eyes of his pursuers.
Indianapolis radio stations re-
lated police appeals for persons
to stay indoors. StrollerS were
asked to return to their homes.
The woman who first told police
of seeing the panther also said
she had seen a truck belonging to
the Cole Brothers Circus nearby.
A police check showed the circus
now is playing at Liberal, Kans.

Middies are seventh in passing

Zastrow, the 208-pound Algoma,

Only three others have exceeded
Zastrow's SOB yards through the

NEW YORK, Oct. 13.-There
will be three outstanding games
of national note on Saturday that
will have direct bearing on the
seasons rating. These three
games are Notre Dame and Tu-
lane at South Bend, Minnesota
Ohio State at Columbus and
California VS.. Southern California
at Berkeley.
Notre Dame and Tulane are
rated high among the country's
leaders, with the mythical ma
tional championship in sight
Minnesota and Ohio State will be
battling for a late December visit
to the Rose Bowl at Pasadena
while California and Southern Cal
will have the same Rose Bowl as
their major target.
The 1949 Tulane outfit is rated
with the best teams the Green
Wave ever sent into action. Henry
Frnka, an able coach, has been
waiting many years for the ma
terial that finally arrived. But
the job of invading South Bend
and rolling back such stars as
Williams, Gay. Hart, Sitko, Mar
tin, Toneh and others looks to be
beyond any ones reach.
Irish Have Great Squad.
This is q fine squad Frank
Leahy has at Notre Dame-a
squad with q big, rugged line and
fast hard-hitting backs who can
either run or pass. He has fine
quarterback in Williams and one
of the games finest players at
either end or tackle In 245-pound
Leon Hart. Hart at the age OF
20 is still growing" Leahy tells
you. What a man he'll be some
day! For Hart, at 6 feet 4 Is
fast as we'll as gigantic.
Leahy realizes Tulane is one Of
the main barricades he has to
hurdle on his way to a national
crown. He has about eight first
class backs headed by Sitko and
Williams and a line Of speed and
power.
Henry Frnka has big line that
is also active. He has a number
Of backs rated around the top
level and you can depend upon 1t
that Tulane will give all she has
to avenge a number Of Notre Dame
defeats.
This game will give Leahy a
definite idea of his team strength
for the long. hard trail that leads
to Dallas and S. M. U. in Decem-
Der. It will be one of his hardest
tests. It may be his hardest battle
all year, not even barring Navy
Michigan State or S. M. U.
Anyway, this will be one of the
new can1paign's'major games with
q direct bearing on later rankings
Bierman Is Determined.
Bernie Bierman has been work
Ing overtime for several years to
dethrone Michigan and reach the
Rose Bowl. A fine Army team last
week beat him to the dethrone-

ment act. But Bierman still has
his vision adjusted on the balmy
sun of California around New
Years day.
BY an odd coincidence. Ohio
State has had the same idea. AS
Michigan, Illinois and North
western can't visit Pasadena this
year, this leaves the matter wide
open to the Gophers and the
Buckeyes.
The winner is almost certain to
get the Far Western call. And
here they are hooked together on
Saturday at Columbus where moro
than 10000 are expected to gather.
Bierman has one of the great
lines Of the age. He has Tonne
maker at center and Tonnemak-
er's displacement is around 240
active pounds. He has Nomellini
at tackle and Nomellini ranges up
around 260.

nominee from the Far West. Cali

and now Southern Cal, with .
better team than the 1948 Tro-
jams, is trying for the New Years
Day appointment.
Both squads are packed with
reserves this season but it re-
mains to be seen whether either
has a back of All-America caliber.
The team that has will win. Both
teams could be stronger defensive
ly, so this should mean an after
noon Of high scoring.
These are not the only big
games Of the day. Cornell and
Yale, both unbeaten, meet at New
Haven, where Herman Hickman's
charges will face the team picked
to win the Ivy League crown.
