Closely Followed by
a Bunched EIeyens
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Oct. 3.-Notre
Dame still is the No. / college foot
ball team in the Nation, but it
looks as if the Irish are going to
have to do a lot more fighting to
hold on to their cherished laurels
this year.
The first Associated Press poll OF
the young season found Frank
Leahy's team at the top again
just where it left of last No
vember.
But four crack collegiate aggre-
gations-Michigan State, South
ern Methodist, Army and Okla
homa-are punched right behind
the Irish, ready, and apparently
able, to move up if Notre Dame
should falter.
Notre Dame barely nosed out
North Carolina. 14-7, Saturday.
A total of 100 sports writer's and
broadcasters. representing a coast
forecast panel. voted the Irish
No. l with $500 points and 63
first place nominations.
Next Teams Bunched.
Only eight points separated the
next three elevens. Michigan
State, surging to the fore on the
strength of it's upset 14-7 triumph
over Michigan. gained the No.
position with 1928 points.
Two points behind came the
Mustangs of Southern Methodist
whose passing circus accounted
for a 1927 triumph over Ohio
States Rose Bowl kings.
Army. which struck like light
ming against Colgate for a $50
victory, was voted fourth place
with 1920 points. Oklahoma S re-
built Sooners gained the fifth
ranking with 1,025 points.
Far behind this five came Ken
lucky (No. g., Texas (No. y,
Stanford (No. 81. California (No.
81 and Washington (No. 10).
539 Points for Kentucky.
Kentucky collected 539 points,
Texas 502, Stanford 464, Cali
fornia 442, and Washington 211.
Points were tabulated on a l0-9-
81, ETC.. basis with 10 points for
the No. l vote.
OF the first 10, only Washing
ton failed to get a first place
nomination. In all, IA teams re-
ceived at least one ballot for the
No. spot.
Michigan State was named first
80 times. SMU was honored with
28 first places; Army received %

Al National Shrine

More than $500 Catholics yes
terday were told that secular or
military might" or prayer for
world peace" would solve present

These two solutions were given
by the Rev. John Waldron dur
ing the third of a series of five

of Our Lady of Fatima held at

msculate Conception at Catholic
University.
The priest is director of the

1T is within our choice to either
accept the revelations of Our
Lady of Fatima and her pleas for
prayer or reject them and fall
back on the military might" Rev.

Ford Studies JAW Bid
For New Wage Raise;
Union Approves Strike
BY the Associated Press

DETROIT. Aug. 14.-Under
threat of future strike action, the
Ford Motor Co. today studied a
request from the CIO- United Auto
Workers that the present contract
be reopened and wages increased
Immediately.
The UAW represents $4,000
Ford production workers across
the Nation.
Unless the demands are met,
the General Council of Ford's
so, 0,000-member UAW Local 600 of
Detroit approved strike action for
January 2, 1851. The present
contract expires January /.
The contract now in force bars
any review of wages before the
expiration date. But Ken Ban
non, UAW Ford director, declared
the contract provides for a re-
opening on wages If both parties
agree
Cost Of Living Cited.
The union contends that "the
spiraling cost of living" justifies
a wage increase at this time.
Mr.. Bannon said wage increases
this year by competitors-General
Motors and Chrysler-"have re-
suited in inequities in the rates
paid to Ford workers and workers
in other plants on comparable
clasSifications of works"
Local 600 first demanded a wage
review 10 days ago. The COM
pany rejected the request, point
ing out that the contract did not
permit a reopening and that the
contract was on a nationwide
basis for its production workers.
The second UAW demand, in
behalf Of all of Ford's production
workers, followed.
The local apparently set the
January 2 strike date to avoid
possible Federal unfair labor prac-
tices charged for breaking the
contract.
Union To Try Five Officers.
Meantime, the General Council
for Local 600 ordered five unit
officers tried as Communist SYM
pathizers.
President Carl Stellato charged
that the five were "subservient
to the Communist Party" and in
agreement with the program and
policies Of Soviet Russia"
The five are officers of various
shop units that make up Local
600.
The council refused Mr.. Stel-
lato's demand that the five be
suspended pending trial.
