George J. Pappafotis of 1915
Thirtieth street NV, who was
voted Wilson's outstanding athlete
of 1949. Both are 10.
According to Detective Charles
H. Calderwood, they blamed a
recent series of articles in a news
paper about David Connors on
how easy it was to break into
homes and decided to make some
money"
The youths were to appear in
Municipal Court on the charges
today. Both were free last night
in $1,000 bond.
Offlcer Corey, who has been with
the Metropolitan Police Depart
ment for nine years, said that

Then, he continued. a voice said
Wait minute. sir. Who is it,"
The chain was unfastened, Mr..
Corey said, and a youth standing
in the entryway eyed his. uniform
and stammered:
You got me red-hapded."
A second youth then walked In
from the bedroom, Mr.. Corey said.
At the precinct. their pockets
were emptied of a watch and
three rings. Detective Charles H.
Calderwood said. The detective
said the youths had thrown some
of their loot on the living room
floor while the traffic officer called
for assistance.
The Pappafotis boy had several
small tools in his pocket, the de-
tective said. including table
knife. a nail file, a filed-down
skeleton key. a nail clip and a
pocket knife. The detective said
he entered Mr.. Corey's apartment
by jimmying the lock.
Assumed Friends Name.
Talbert, a graduate of McKin-
ley Tech in June of 1948. enrolled
at Wilson in September of the
same year under the name of q
friend. Ralph Swiggard. After
early games, Tech students identi-
fled him as Talbert, Wilson's VIC
tories were forfeited and Talbert
was dropped from school.
Pappafotis' name is engraved
on a plaque hanging in the prin-
cipal's Office at Wilson, designat-
ing him as the outstanding ath-
lete Of 1949.
From Wilson Principal Thomas
j. Holmes came criticism of the
publicity in the arrests. He
termed it IAN unfair slap" at all
the other students at Wilson who
don't do that sort of thing"

NEW YORK-1t might be a trltle
difficult to work up a great wave
of sympathy for the S25, 000-a-yeaI
man, but a little examination Of
the subject will disclose that this
salary-category doesn't mean the
man making that much money an
nually is living in a bed of roses.
According to agencies specialize
ing in these ultra starched-collar
jobs, the holders thereof have their
problems, chief of which is what
to do to improve themselves and is
there any chance for advancement.
But. these agencies say, if the
SOS, 0O0-a-year man works hard, and
uses his brain, he may get ahead.
More Big Jobs
There's no question that more
big jobs ars available today than at
n time in at least 10 years." says
w. Gail Camp, head of n of the
upper bracket agencies.
Scores Of good openings have
gone begging for want of the right
man." says Walter A. Lowen. direc-
tor of another agency.
These and other experts in the
field cite recent examples of $3.50 DOC
a year men who made good.
The merchandise manager Of a
large electrical company got a S4O,-
900 job with a machine manufacture
err as vice-president in charge of
sales. After several reorganiza-
tions, he was made president.
A veteran salesman went to a
pharmaceutical company as sales
man, was promoted to sales mana
ger of a subsidiary and then be-
came president of a new branch.
Another man left his job as sales
manager of an electrical appliance
firm to become sales manager OF a
chemical company. In three years,
he climbed to the presidency at
$50, 900 a year.
Situation Not Black
You see. the situation is not
black.
Camp, Lowen and other agency
heads report they have on hand nu-
merous applications from COM
panies to fill jobs paying more than
SIS. 900 a year. They're looking for
sales managers, general managers,
executive vice-presidents and other
flight brass in such fields as
radio. television, house furnishings,
air conditioning and electric and
drug manufacturing.
Camp, president of Executive
Service corp, points out that with
a return to the buyers market
many firms face competition for a
.ong time, and a lot of related prob
ems.

Jays. Everybody is forced to work

ally every company is either open

 Bridges told a news conference that no law passed by the Hawa iian legislature could force load ing or unloading of island cargoes on the Pacific coast.
 But even as he spoke, canned pineappe was being loaded for the first time since the ILWU struck May l for a wage boost of 32 cents an hour. A new non-union firm, Hawaii StevedOres, Ltd, was putting the shipment aboard the Isthmian freighter Steel Maker
 Asked if he thought the strike was near settlement, Bridges re- flied:
 More and more issues are being raised all the time"
 One way to settle it, he added, would be arbitration by a board of Hawaiian businessmen not con- nected with any of the "big five" sugar agencies.
 The union repeatedly has de- manded arbitration. Employers have rejected it, contending they should not be bound in advance to accept an award on wages by third parties who have no finan- cial responsibility.
 Bridges referred to the "big five" as "feudal lords," and said their attorney James Blaisdell "got the horse laugh" in Washing ton last month when he told a Senate committee there was no "big five"

Colorado Has
 BOuntifuI Supply Of Uranium
By Oliver w. DeWolf

WASHINGTON CPy, Colorado's uranium deposits are ample to supply the nations vast atomic emery program, Senator Millikin R.-ColoJ said yesterday.
 Similar assurance came from Senator Edwin C. Johnson O. ColoD, who declared there is a tremendous amount of uranium in the Colorado plateau country"
 Both Senators are members of the Senate-H0use atomic ene"gy committee.
 They spoke out as thc United States prepared to eHto, into "eX- ploratory conversations with Great Britain and Canada on long range program of collabOra- ton in raw materials, supplies and exchange of atomic informa- ton.
 At present, the United States gets the great OulK or us uranium the basic material for atomic weapons-from Canada and the Belgian Congo.
 Tn contrast to the rich deposits of these mines, the Colorado uran- ium is scattered throughout the carnotite ore of the region. II is both difficult and expensive to ex- tract.
 The primary mineral for uran- ium is pitchbblende. The atomic energy commission has said no one is actually producing that mineral in this country.
