Alaska Wide Open For Invasion

SEATTLE, CP) - Congressional Delegate E. L. Bartlett describes every port in Alaska as being wide open to invasion.
 In a review of the Territory's defense situation for the Post-In- telligencer, Bartlett declared:
 Southern terminals of Alaska's railroad, the vital lifeline to the Interior, and undefended and vul- nerable to attack.
 There are no military inStalla- tions or soldiers in Southeastern Alaska to protect the sea and air ,, routes.
 The air forces three bases are ill-equipped and undermanned; they are centered in an area one fourth as large as the United States and lack any outside de- fenSe perimeter.
 There is not a single naval craft in Alaska waters.
 The total naval air strength con- sists of Is fighting planes.
 No actual construction will start until next spring on any part of the s93,000,000 military works program authorized by Congress.
 Bartlett recently made an in- spection tour of the Territory.
 Rep. Hugh Mitchell of Seattle said during a Tuesday talk here: Alaska needs an entire develop ment program of highways, roads, docks. hydroelectric power and radar defense screen"
 The Washington Democrat add ed: "Men are living in disreputa- ble shacks, even the commanding officers. They need 12,000 troop barracks and 1000 substantial and comfortable family quarters"

Alabama Receives TOrnadOes For Thank ksgiving

BIR M INGRAM, Ala, CP) - Thanksgiving Day tornadoes roar ed down at four points in east Alabama yesterday and killed IA persons. Forty-four persons were injured.
 The vicious, out-of- e a n storms left several other persons missing and damaged more than a score of buildings as they leap frogged in three counties about dusk.
 An entire family of 10 Negroes was wiped out near Hackneyville in Tallapoosa County, 60 miles southeast of Birmingham. The mammoth wind picked up their weatherbeaten little home and hurled it 300 yards across the road into another house.
 The second house was occupied by another large family of Ne groes, but none was reported hurt. Both houses were demolished witnesses said they appeared to explode after the smashing inn pact

Territory Should Take Over Schools

Continued from Page One) plan to convince him that the ANS should not keep many schools in backward areas for many years to come.
 Terry Moore, president of the University of Alaska, pointed out that although one-third of Alaska's population was native, few were qualified to enter the University because high schools were not available to the majority.
 He stressed that any study of the educational system must take in secondary schools. Everyone present agreed the University would be the ideal place for any such study to be made, and Foster said he though he could scrape up between $3,000 and $5,000 to support it, and hoped other inter ested groups would make dona- tions.
 There exists at present no du- plicatiOn of educational facilities in any Alaska community, Foster sadi, with the exception of Fort Yukon.
 He pointed out that Henry Ro- den, at the time he was Territorial attorney general, gave him an in- depreciation of a law, which says the Territory must take native children if they desire to attend.
 The present collection of the s per head tax for education" Eos ter said, "can be made from na- tives as well as whites, if the col lectors ask for it."
 Strongest point many persons opposed 10 allowing natives to at tend white schools have used in that the former pay no school taxes.
 Stumbling blocks in the way of joining the ANS school system with that under the commissioner are the present vocational train ing now used by ANS and school lunches, both of which are con- sidered vital unde rcertain condi- tions by ANS.

AOMMENTS::

QooopopooooqppQQoaooo!

Several years ago a group Of
kind-hearted individuals formed
the S.P.C.A. (Society for the Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Animals). In
similar vein, | would like to ini-
tiate a movement to promote the
formation of group to be known
as the S.P.C.P.O. (Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Basket
ball Officials.) Seriously, I'm con-
vinced that there is no individual
in the sports world who reaps so
much adverse criticism as a bas-
ketball official. This harangued vic
tim of voviverous verbal abuse is
guiltless in most instances but he
is unable to defend himself dur
ing the course of the game for
ethical reasons. The primary rea-
son for this underserved criticism
is the fact that at least 900 of
players, spectators and even
coaches are not familiar with the
complexities of the basketball
rules.
Let's consider then, the prob
lens which confront basketball
official - that hard-working
gentleman in the striped shirt who
"does his best and gets no rest" !"
First of all, in order to become an
official, the "glutton for punish
ment" must pass a rigid eXamina-
tion covering every phase of the
rules - more than six wrong
answers in the 45-question test
eliminates the applicant until the
following season. Once he has
passed the exam, the new official
must purchase the required equip
ment and usually serves his zap
premiership" by officiating second
ary contests such as practice scrim-
images, amateur, junior high school
and junior varsity games. This
breaking in" period is usually a
very discouraging phase of the of
ficiating routine since the lack of
experience often creates difficult
situations in the proper admins
tration of the rules. However, con-
slant hard work and a determin-
alton to improve invariably pro-
duces a good official who is then
ready to be tossed to the Evolves"
politely referred to as "spec-
tators."
Contacts must be made with
schools and league officials in
order to secure officiating assign
ments for high school and college
games and the unethical practice
of soliciting games is prohibited by
the local officials organization of
which every recognized official is
member in good standing.
Except in small schools, two Of
ficials are used in every high
school and college game and these
assignments are made well in ad-
vance of the season. The fees paid
to the officials vary according to
East Cleveland leader. [volume] (East Cleveland, Ohio) 1942-1970, 1949-12-15

the school or league with the sti-
pend for college contests exceeding
that for scholastic games.
Since the game of basketball,
as it's played today, is so fast,
the officials must make a great
many more decisions than in foot
ball, baseball or any other popular
sport. And, because the spectators
sit so close to the playing area
and the noise and excitement is so
concentrated, bedlam usually pre-
walls, tempers flair, and disparag-
ing remarks are directed at the
officials who have the thankless
task of trying to control the game.
The abused arbitrators must make
split-second decisions on plays
which, in most cases, involve judg-
ment. Naturally, there are two
sides to every questionable decision
and, as result the faction against
which the decision is made will
usually register vehement pro-
test. Remember, too, that the physi-
cal strain on an official is as great
and often greater than on a
player. Frequent substitutions af-
ford the players an occasional rest
but the poor official must exert
himself with little or no respite.
While l readily agree that most
people are, by nature, argumenta-
tive and quick to defend their be-
liefs, nevertheless, I'm firmly con-
vinced that most fans are definite
ly unfair in their attitude and
treatment of basketball officials.
They have an exacting and difficult
task to perform and even though
they are admittedly wrong on some
occasions it's we'll to remember
that everyone makes mistakes. l
have long been of the opinion that,
if everyone. who watches, coaches
or plays basketball would be made
to referee just one game, they
would certainly be less critical of
a basketball official who is quail
fled to perform his difficult task
as "whistle-tooter."

Haber's Cagemen
Lead In Intra-
MuraIs To Date

ball league finished its second
week of play with all teams show
ing team spirit and a determination
to cop the championship. So far,
Haber's IBIS have excelled in both
the defensive and offensive depart
ments, as they have scored 81
points to their opponents 35. Close
behind these boys are Atkins 12A's
with IS and Baumgartner's HAS
with 81. The 12A's, however, have
shown consistency in every game,
quality which is hard to beat.
Luxenburg's 10A's have rolled up
the highest score in single game,
SO, and Haber's boys SO, but these
are highly exceptional scores as the
games are usually fought on a
more even basis.
The best example of play this
week was when Baumgartner's
HAS nosed out Stafford's 12A's by
4 points. Backed up by a smooth
exhibition of teamwork, center Bob
Schafer of the HAS racked up II
points to raise his 2-page total to
a terrific "A points. Other high
scorers are Bob Viehweg with 36,
and Wally Lojewski with 30.
Even though the statistics do not
make it apparent, Reeds 12B's and
Atkins 12A's seem to be the most
powerful teams in the circuit, al
though there are still many chances
for an upset. Here are the stand
ings of the 10 teams at the end

The Boys Club Band OF Wash

drew G. Bodnar. This group OF
young people. between IL and l9

itself by the quality Of the con-
certs, which, after two appear
ances In the large auditorium. bids
fair to be one Of the popular
events of the musical season.
These boys can really play. not
simply In a competent manner
but with the poise and musician
ship that older bandsmen might
envy.
It is APPARENT that Mr.. Bodnar,
formerly of the Marine Band.
knows how to select his talent and
how to weld 1t into well dis
ciplined whole. The evidence Of
their training is visible in the ac-
curacy of intonation and of
rhythm In all sections. and the
general spirit that prevaded the
performance last night. One Of
the objectives of the concert was
to raise funds to meet the imme-
diate requirements Of the school
where such excellent instruction
as was to be recognized through
out the program is obtained. Such
concerts are the clubs best pub
licity and should not be confined
to the annual event. The appeal
of these youngsters playing is
enough to start public support of
their general musical program.
