Committee Told
Alien Workers
Not Needed

Washington Foreign workers
are being imported for agricultu-
al jobs because they are more
easily exploited than our own citl-
zens and not because there is a
need for them in this country, says
Clarence Mitchell, labor secretary
of the National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People.
Testifying before the Presidents
Committee on Migratory Labor,
on July 10, Mr.. Mitchell charged
that although there are many re-
ports about shortages of farm
workers, nobody really knows
whether such shortages exist. The
NAACP official pointed out that
many shortages are created by re-
striction of the free movement OF
labor in the South. Southern
growers fear that workers VINO
leave will not return, he SAID
and northern farmers fear that
those who come into their areas
viii remain.
In 1913, MIR. Mitchell said, the
NAACP suggested that the U. 5.
Department of Labor use Missouri
and Arkansas to test whether there
were idle agricultural workers
who could be used in other areas
This test was not made.

Georgetown has a hefty and

trouble is the gridderS mostly are

the milestone around the Hoya
neck this season.
Frankly. Georgetown looks bet
ter for 1851 than it does for 1850.
What experience there is comes
mostly from juniors who did only
a fair amount of playing last year.
In the probable starting backfield,
only Quarterback Tommy Hardi-
man is a senior and it's not cer.-
tain he'll play whole lot on Of
tense. He's the best defensive
back the Hoyas have and when
the other teams start pounding on
the gate Hardiman will be safety
man.
Also Hardiman for all his other
talents is not as good passer as
Frank Mattingly. There will be
many times when the HoyaS will
need to move far and fast. MAJ
tingly will go in to toss. He's q
rangy junior who is almost a head
taller than any one else on the
squad and he did most of the
quarterbacking and passing last
year. But he still isn't the calm
field general of fancy ball handler
that Hardiman is. Who will do
the Quarterbacking will depend on
a lot of factors.
Backs Have Much to Learn.

field are sophomores - Bugs

is very fast and Coach Bob Mar

Chamberlain Has II Veterans,
But Faces Tough Schedule
(Another in q SerieS.)
By Brion Bell, Jr.

Chamberlain defeated Bell last
year for its only victim. This
season it doesn't play Bell and
the prospects of taking an inter-
high game are dim.
Despite the usual problems that
beset a vocational school, Coach
Forrest Powars is not chanting a
dirge. 1.-THE boys spirit is fine"
he commented" and we are going
to have a respectable club"
Chamberlain has IT lettermen
back. which is large number of
experienced boys, but as to what
kind of a showing it can make
against Wilson, Eastern, Ana
costa, Western and Coolidge is
uncertain.
Powars has eight backs who will
see a lot of action. His first four
are Tony Magnetic at the quarter
back spot, Stan Rochinski at left
half, Charles Stramer at right
half and Allen Kelley at full.
The coach is counting on Mag
MOTTO to Offset the loss of Mickey
Curtis, all-high second team
choice last year. So far Tony has
looked good and his coach has
nothing but praise for him.
Magnetic is doing fine job at
quarterback" Powars said, "and if
he doesn't get hurt we should be
able to get together a pretty good
offenSe."
Reserve backs who are counted
on for service are Ernest SIevester,
Magnotto's sub; Joe Kolley and
Enrico Magnetic at the halves, and
Bob Ruth at fullback.
On the line, Chamberlain has
two boys returning who were on
the all-high honorable mention
list last year. They are Douglas
Pearson at end and Joe Bobbitt at
tackle. With Bill Griffith at
guard. they should take care of
the left side of the line.
At center and on the right side,
Powars also has some boys who
have some experience. Joe Mileo
IS at guard, Ben Culverhouse at

Sophomores, Tackle Jim Schenk,
215 pounds; Center Jim Slowey,
220 pounds, and Guard John Nc
CHM, 210 pounds. They are not
without talent and have heft and
mobility. But in the friendly prac-
tice sessions at the Hilltop they
have been making the usual mis-
takes that stem from inexperience
and there's reason to think they
won't make more mistakes when
the going gets rough.
Naturally many of these names
now are unfamiliar, but some of
these boys will be heard from as
the season progresses. Schenk
looks a real conner. And Coach
Margarita thinks so much of Nc
CHM that he has him playing as
the middle man of the defensive
line. Slowey is line backer on de-
tense, a job that calls for a smart
and fast man.

his first year as head coach in
1949, Georgetown won five games
