20 to 10, in field goals, but had a
horrible time from the foul line,
making only 10 of "a. Meanwhile
Penn State spent most of the game
parading to the charity stripe and
cashed in on Is out of IS foul tries.
Penn State had nine-point lead
at the half and stayed safely
ahead with Milt Simon, who set a
new home court scoring record,
doing the most damage with %

D. c. Youth Army Ring Choice;
Nathan Stopped by Murphy

Larry Jones, District middle
weight fighting for the Sd Army
in the Army world boxing tour
nament at Fort Myer GYM. is IA
vored to win his bout tonight and
advance to tomorrow nights semi
finals. Jones, who won his open
ing match on Monday night, is
paired against Elifigo Bordeau of
the 4th Army, who is compare
tive newcomer to the ring.
A number of sluggers who won
frst-round bouts by knockoutS
also are scheduled for more action
tonight. These include Bantam
weight Limo Gatacia of the 4th
Army, Lightweight Marshall Clay
ton of the Sd Army and Heavy
weight Sidney Peele of the Sd
Army.
A crowd of close to 5000, largest
yet for the tournament, was on
hand last night as the Military
District of Washington's favorite.
Welterweight Andy Nathan, fell a
technical knockout victim to Jo-
seph j. (Joltin' Joe) Murphy Of
the 1st Army. Nathan absorbed
the first defeat of his ring career
when he was unable to answer
the third-round bell. Murphy, a
tough Irishman from Boston,
felled Nathan with a lightning
left hook in the first round and
at the end of the second had Ma
than backed to a corner and TAX
ing terrific beating. The MDW
battler, who had taken 81 bouts,
10 by knockouts. barely was able
to stagger to his corner at the
bell and couldn't make it out for
| the third.
Middleweight John Pratt, an
other MDW champ, was deci-
stoned by Austin Gentleman JIM
Jones of the European Command.
That makes a total of five MDW
men in the ring so far in this
| tourney without winner. Jones,
alleged to be the Army's fanciest
dresser, came equipped with his
own special embroidered satin
ring trunks and just proved to be
too classy for the local boy.

Still Retain Chance
OF PIayoff Berth

Catholic University, beaten for
the sixth time in its last seven
games when it lost to Washington
College last night, still figures to
get back into the Dixon
Conference basket ball tournament
at c. U. next week as the No.
team.
The Cards surprising 49-42 de-
feat at the hands of the Shoremen
left them with eight victories and
eight defeats with one game re-
manning - against Mount St.
Mary'S here Saturday night.
The only way Catholic U. can
miss the tournament is to lose to
the Mounts (Which it has done
once) while Western Maryland is
beating Johns Hopkins and Wash
ington College is doing the i'm
probable by beating Loyola of
Baltimore, both on Saturday
That would leave the Terrors and
Shoremen with 500 averages and
c. U. outside with 8-and-9.
c. us downfall started when it
inaugurated its defensive basket
ball tactics. The Cards won 10
of their first IL games, but in their
last 7 have beaten only Randolph
Macon.
Nick Scallion, leading scorer in
the MaSon-DiXon Conference,
bettered his average with "a
point performance while Gene
Szlarz was high for the Cards
with II. Washington took an
early 30 lead and never was
headed, although c. U. pulled
within two points at one time.

Week Involves No Big
Wage Loss
Associated Press

Henry Ford astonished the ma
tion in 1926 when he put his work
ers on five-day forty-hour week at
the same weekly pay they had been
getting for six days. 1.-THE country
is ready for the five-day week" he
said. "It is bound to come through
all industry" Today the prophecy
is close to fulfillment.
Nearly a million railroad work
ers went on the five-day. forty-houl
week Thursday. They are one oi
the last big segments of American
wage-earners to get two, off-days
every week.
The forty-hour week has become
the standard for most of the ma.
ton. 1t spread through industry
with rush in the depression years
the motive being to spread worl
and reduce unemployment. 50
1t was established by law OIL
Oct. "a, 1910, for millions of factor!
and mine workers and other engag
! ed in Interstate commerce. Thi
was under the wage-hour act O
1888.
That law did not cover railroad
workers, farmers, domestic. hell
retail clerks and certain othe
groups. Many of those people
though fewer every year-wer
working more than forty hours
week.

DeEGUGre Apple Crop
Way Ahead OF 1913
Is Estimated At 5S5, 1000
Bushels; Last Years
Crop Was Only $4,000

Delaware's commercial apple
crop for 1949 is estimated at 5S5,000
bushels, which is a market boost
in comparison to last year when
an early frost cut down the win
ter yield. The 194S crop was $4,000
bushels.
In releasing the figures, Dr..
r. o. Bausman, agricultural econ
omist at the University of Della
ware, pointed out the diminishing
Importance of apples as CONNER
cial product in the state of Della
ware. He estimated that the num-
ber of apple trees in the state has
decreased by about so per cent in
the last so years. In recent years.
he explained, the apple crop has
been below the 1937-4T average of
714,00O bushels.
The reason, as explained by DR..
Bausman, is that Delaware farm
ers find it more profitable to go
into other pursuits, such as raising
chickens, than to compete with
cheaper citrus fruits co.Aing in
from the South.
Harvesting of Summer apples
the Yellow Transparent and the
Early Williams, is now Uroceedins
in the state, while winter apples
will be harvested during October
and November.
