ViIIanova Calls NCAA
Tourney Ban Illegal
BY the Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 8.-Villa-
nova College considers itself eligi-
BILE for the postseason National
Collegiate Athletic Association
basketball tournament, but the
NCAA doesn't.
I'VE consider ourselves very
much eligible" declared Athletic
Director Bill Connolly of Villa
nova today. 1--WE have taken no
action on recent memorandum
from the Compliance Committee
pending return of our president
(the Very Rev. Francis x. N.
McGuire), but we see no reason
why we should be ruled out"
Connolly declared it was Villa
nova's position that any boycott
of the school in regard to tourna-
ment competition is against the
NCAA constitution.
ut is our understanding that
the resolution of President H. C..
Byrd of Maryland passed by the
NCAA prohibits any action against
the seven schools until a commit
tee has investigated the sanity
code and reported back to next
years meeting" Connolly added.
Connelly's statement was in
answer to one made yesterday by
Bill Anderson, Lafayette College
athletic director and member of
the three-man NCAA District 2
Selection Committee. In the dis
trict are New York, New Jersey
and Pennsylvania.
Anderson told the Philadelphia
Basketball Writers Association
that Villanova, with record of
1873, was not eligible for NCAA
tournament competition because
of n-compliance with NCAA
regulations. +"
"We cannot give them consid-
Grafton until they write to NCAA
officials and state they are COM
plying with regulations" Ander-
son added.

Washington meeting Duke about

.Undefeated
Cards Play
Heights Next
by Bob Keefer

!. Shaw's high-geared cagers will
be favored to keep their Lake Erie
League slate clean when they meet
Heights on the Tiger court to-
morrow night. The game will COM
plete the first cycle in league COM
petition in which the Cardinals are
still undefeated while the Tigers
have won only one of their four
circuit contests. However, in spite
of the difference in their present
overall records (Shaw has a CO
mark while Heights owns a As
slate) tomorrow nights game will
probably be closely contested.
The Tigers have always given
Shaw trouble on their own floor
and they are certainly capable of
playing better basketball than the
brand shown to date. The lone
league win for the Heights quintet
was a 59-49 decision over Lorain
while their trio Of loop losses have
been to Elyria, 5O-45; Lakewood,
45-43; and Shaker, 61-48.
They opened their season with
successive victories over Lincoln,
1887 and Warren, 48-41, and
drubbed Euclid 60-40 during the
Christmas holidays. Their other two
defeats were administered by Guy
ahoga Falls, 52-48 and Canton Nc
Kinley, 63-53. The fact that the
Tigers have never scored less than
43 points in any of their nine games
to date is ample proof that they
pack scoring punch.

THE IMPORTANCE OF VOTING

When Ralph Bushnell Potts recently made report to
the American Bar Association relative his voting he said
in part follows ~-~"1 49,
"The blood of free stains my ballot sheet What
others do shall not carelessy make my marks vote
not because can but because must vote if my bal
lot alone decided the contest lose preference but
will not throw away my sacred vote For within the
BOOTH hold in my humble hand the living proxy of all my
countrys honored dead"
If feel deeply this, relative his vot-
ng surely no man or woman in Noble county will deliber
ately stay away from the polls next Tuesday
1t is believed that of the largest number of

The issues at stake important The opportunity
to go to the polls and vote you wish you
stay away and fail now to exercise this privilege may not
always be yours
The eyes of the nation focused Ohio in the COM
ing election The role you play should be considered
minor one is important that you and you alone go to
the polls.

en- the law. The Administration, of
course, has bitterly opposed the
law at every turn. President Tru-
man vetoed it when it first was
passed and during the 1948 cam
paign he promised that he would
make repeal of the Taft Hartley
Law the first order of business for
the 81st Congress. OF course, he
failed to deliver on that promise,
just as he failed on the other ma
jor points of the CIO-PAC labor
socialist program.
The Taft-Hartley Law is meet
ing the test of time and it has
been upheld repeatedly in the
courts. Public approval of this
law is now at its highest point,
according to impartial public
opinion surveys.

unfair labor practices by manage

Wagner Act, and (2) by subjecting
labor unions to the same obliga-
ton to perform their contracts
and be otherwise liable for their
acts, to which individuals and cor
porations are subject. The result
is to make the National Labor Re-
lations Board a governmental ju-
dicial body instead of an agency
of the labor unions. The Taft
Hartley Law outlaws the closed
shop, closed union which made
individual workers and young
persons seeking employment COM

and caprices of union leaders in

The greatest perogative that
man has is his freedom to work
Few words have such individual
and yet such diverse meaning to
different people as the word
work" and no form of action
has more diversity in its concep-
ton, because of different view
points, than work.
A little child when asked his
idea of work said, Anything
have to do is work and anything
! want to do is play, which
answer showed that the child
recognized his relation to that
form of activity known as work
also it demonstrated that work
had been presented to his mind
as drudgery.
Drudgery is work we make
difficult, which is done because
we must do it and which we re-
gard with aversion; it is the hare
sordid form of work seemingly
without hope and apart from any
of the joy of accomplishment.
Work should be,a joy; it should
be the motive of our lives; anc
it would be if we regarded it ir
the light of its being a labor oi
love, but we have come to think
of what we call labor with al.
most a sense of pain. The secre'

good faith and give reasonable
notice to the other of desire to
change the terms of contract. It
forbids the check-off of union
dues unless authorized in writing
by the employee. 1t prohibits Sec
ondary boycotts and jurisdictional
strikes. 1t withholds the protection
of the law from unions until each
of their officers have made an oath
that they are not members of the
Communist Party.
1t requires unions to make an
annual financial report to their
members. 1t does not otherwise
interfere with the internal af-
fairs of unions.
It requires that union welfare
funds supported by employer con-
tributions be trust funds and speci-
fies other safeguards all calculated
to insure that the employees ac-
tually receive the benefits.
THE CIO-PAC demonstrated its
dominance over the White
House when it recently persuaded
the President to remove the gen.
eral counsel of the National Labor
Relations Board. The Presidents
last appointment to the Board it
self was cleared first with all the
union bosses-despite the fact that
the Board is supposed to treat
both employers and unions alike.
No such clearance was sought
from representatives of employer
organizations.
The PAC is now seeking to gain
the same kind of domination over
Congress and is conducting vio-
lent campaign against members of
both Houses who are up for re-
election just because they voted
for the Taft-Hartley Law. In Ohio,
they have taken full charge of my
opponents campaign, telling him
what to say and where to go. Sig
nificantly, however, they have
dropped the Taft-Hartley Law as
an issue in this State. After three
years of operation the rank and
file of labor know that it is no
"slave labor" act, but instead one
under which they have achieved
higher wages, better working con-
ditions and greater benefits and
pensions. The wives of workers
are also highly satisfied with
higher and more steady take-home
pay.
Jacob Malik, the Russian dele
gate to the United Nations, re-
Gently told a special political
committee of the UN that he
