Truman Tries To Appease South

WASHINGTON, (P-President Truman today appeared to have broken the ice on southern ap- pointments with his nomination of Abraham Benjamin Conger as federal judge in Georgia.
 Conger was recommended by Senator George D.-GaD, vigorous foe of the Presidents civil rights program and one of the Democrats wt.e has refused to go along with MT, Truman's request for $4,O0O,- 900. 900 in new taxes.
 The Presidents action in send ing the nomination to the Senate yesterday was widely interpreted as victory for those in the Demo- CT stic party who have counseled against trying to punish Dixie lawmakers who didn't get out and root for the President in last years campaign.

Alaska RR. Rejects Longshore Bids

HORACE, (A1 - Alaska railroad officials announced yes terday they had rejected bids re- ceived from private firms to per form longshoring work on the government dock at Seward.
 Bids were submitted by firms in Seattle, Seward and San Fran cisco. They were termed too high on a basis of cost per ton of cargo handled.
 The present method of negotia- ting contracts with private firms may be supplanted by issuance of new specifications, with invita- tions to bid on the basis of straight rates per ton for general cargo, with exceptions on designated types of penalty cargo.
 New invitations will be offered June 4, with the awards effective Aug. 1.
 Unless the new specifications produce bids from private opera tors at rates lower than those quoted, officials said the work would be performed by the rail- road as a step toward reducing ing overall costs to the Territory.

By GEORGE Huber

Georgetown's football line, ex-
pected to be a bit on the weak
side this season, is looking better
all the time. A tough two-hour
scrimmage on the Hoya practice
field yesterday showed that Coach
Bob Margarita is putting together
a forward wall that is capable. es-
pecially on defense.
Development Of a tight and
hard-charging line also is popping
up Georgetown's pass defense
which looked weak in early scrim-
images. The guards and tackles
are charging the passer with more
vigor. Line Coach Bill Battles
doesn't have all the guards he d
like, but may develop some.
Hoya passing also looked good
yesterday, especially that eng;-
neered by Francis Mattingly, a
lanky sophomore quarterback, who
got his high school football edu-
cation at Charlotte Hall. On one
occasion Mattingly completed four
successive heaves for a total OF SO
yards. His ball handling at quar-
terback isn't polished as yet, but
that isn't too unusual for player
with no varsity experience.
Bad news for Georgetown is
confirmation that severe stomach
ulcers will keep Billy Conn, its
speedy and brilliant left halfback,
out of action for probably the
whole season. After several days
of hospital examinations, an Off
cial report on Conn is that he has
a penetrating duodenal ulcer" a

George Washington also had
bad news for its grid supporters
yesterday when it was found that
Guard Jim Regan, senior 1885,
FOUNDER, must undergo operation
on a damaged knee. The surgery
is slated Friday. Regan last year
was one of the iron men on the.
Colonial squad and played nearly
so minutes of every game.
Conn's loss at Georgetown
leaves the Hoyas severely UNDER
manned at left half. The other
regular left half is supposed to be
Babe Baranowski, who last year
broke a collarbone. Yesterday the
peppery Babe took part in his
first scrimmage and reported no
damage to his shoulder, but Coach
Margarita still is worried. To
strengthen the left-half post
Margarita plans to shift Lou Mil
ler, a 165-pound halfback, to that
slot. Warren McFague, a promis-
ing sophomore, also operates at
left half.
The future appears bright at
Maryland from the looks Of A
freshmen who drew grid equip
ment yesterday. Plenty of heft
was evident among the yearlings.
Among the newcomers was Dick

Mckinney Unsigned,
U|ine Says; Rothgeb
Quits as Manager

Reports that Bones Mckinney,
star for the Washington Caps pro
basket ball team, had come to
terms for 1949-50 and had been
granted special concessions, are
ridiculous" Owner Mike Uline
said today.
AS far as Uline is concerned
Bones still is on the unsigned list,
and if he does sign there will be
no Bones Mckinney charity
games. Earlier reports had the
Uline management agreeing to an
exhibition game in Raleigh, N. c.,
with Bones as sole beneficiary.
Bones also, according to the re-
ports, was to be allowed to stay
in Washington while the team
flew to Der>ar for its regular Ma
tional Basket Ball Association
game. Bones doesn't like to fly.
No Special Consideration.
"There is nothing to that re-
port" said Uline. Bones wanted
to ship our floor to North Caro-
lima last year and I had to stop
that. Bones will get no special
consideration. All players will be
treated alike"
Asked if it was possible that
Bones had come to an agreement
with Coach Bob Feerick without
Uline's knowledge, the Arena
owner replied:
"Feerick is coach. Period"
Definitely signed is John Nor
lander, raising the number of Caps
in the fold to nine. Dick OKeefe
and Dick Schultz also have agreed
to terms, while Fred Scolari, Leo
Katkaveck, Ken Leslie, Jim Rick
ert, John Rusinko and Feerick all
have signed. Players as yet un-
signed are Jack Nichols, Sonny
Hertzberg and Kleggie Hermsen.
Rothgeb Leaves Position.
Paul Rothgeb, manager OF Uline
Arena for the last three years and
dlSO 11ldlldSCl Vi U&lC S0PD d110
the Washington Lions hockey
team, announced his resignation
today. Uline said Rothgeb's duties
would be assumed by Bob Foster,
general manager of the Uline
plant, until a new arena manager
is appointed.
A new arena manager, Uline
said, probably would be some one
who now is a member Of the
Uline organization or q former
member, but he indicated he does
not have a definite person in
mind.
Rothgeb would give no reason
for his resignation, but said he
and Uline parted ION the best of
terms" He said his future plans
are uncertain, but that he would
remain in Washington and has
several irons in the fire." His
