conference this year, that means
it is going to take better than a

loses to the Wolfpack, it will have
to win eight of it's II remaining
conference games to make sure
of a tournament berth. Seven of
the II probably would be on the

Navy, 7erps and Hoyos Lead
In District Area Basketball
By MerreIl WhittIesey

Navy, unbeaten in five games,
and Maryland and Georgetown,
each with only one defeat. COM
piled the best records of the Dis
trict area college basketball teams
in the pre-holiday play. which
consisted of about one-fourth Of
the schedule for each team.
However, some of the teams,
particularly Navy and Maryland
were playing some of the softest
touches on their schedules. The
opposition gets tougher in early
January when the Terps and CIV
get down to serious business in
the Southern Conference race:
American University goes after its
second straight Mason-Dixon
crown, with Catholic U. among
the challengers; and Georgetown
and Navy make their moves
among the major Eastern inde-
pendentS.
A quick rundown on the early
season performances:
NAVY (5-0)-Coach Ben Carne-
Wales club won its first four games
by 18 point margins or better
before it barely beat an unimpres-
sive Rutgers team in the last
minute. Navy will know more of
it's potentialities starting Thurs
day when it competes in the Dixie
Classic in Raleigh, N. c. Navy's
top five scorers are lettermen but
Carnevale looks for help from the
sophomores before long. The Mid
dies, of course. have no skyscraper
centers because of academy height
regulations. but Carnevale, a
young but respected coach, partly
makes up for this by accentuating
speed.
GEORGETOWN (4-D-It will
be a tremendous disappointment
on the Hilltop if this f1ashy, young
team is not ranked among the
top 10 in the Nation by the end
of the season. The Hoyas' only
defeat was at the hands of Long
Island in Madison Square Gar
den, by 9 points after trailing by
with 2::20 to play. However,
the goal of the teams rabid sup
porters may be too high. Most
of the youngsters are teen-agers
and they probably will drop a
game or two that they figure to
win. Strong Siena. NC State and
La Sale are among Georgetown's s
opponents. Coach Buddy O'Grady
is skeptical of some of the rave
notices. He said the other day,
Everybody says this is a great
team but nobody has asked me

Robinson Puts Away Five Foes,
$45,OOO on European Tour

rounder in Madison Square Gar
den. Cartier and Hairston, both
New York middleweights. are
down to go 10 rounds in the Gar
den's featured attraction.
Robinson is sure of collecting
at least $500 from his Frank
furt fight, which drew an esti-
mated 5000 spectators. including
more than 1000 Americans. Part
of the proceeds went to the United
States Army's German youth ac-
tivities program, which helped
sponsor the fight.
Everybody in on Act.
Gainford said Robinson earned
about $4,000 for his technical
knockout of French Middleweight
Champion Robert Villemain in
Paris last Friday. He estimated
ne got $4,000 from his earlier
knockout win over Jean Stock in
Paris; 1000 for knocking out Luc
Van Dam in Brussels, and $4,000
for his decision over Jean WalZack
in Geneva.
That adds up to more than
$45, 900 for a months work. But
Robinson didn't spare any ex-
pense on his gala tour of Europe.
Travelling with him were his wife,
his manager and wife, two train
ers, a secretary, hair dresser, golf
instructor and a 4-foot, 4-inch
mascot"
All but the mascot, Jimmy
Karoubi, came over with Robinson
from the United States. He picked
up Jimmy in Paris and will leave
him there only because I'VE
couldn't get Jimmy's visa fixed up
in time to take him to America
with u.s."
Asked if he enjoyed his Euro
pean tour, Sugar said, yeah, it's
been fun. I'd like to come back
again If this war situation clears

The County Circuit Courts rul-

elections of county councilmen on
a non-partisan basis was dismissed
two weeks ago by the Circuit

day.
James Lanigan, assistant Coun-
ty attorney, said the council con-
tends in the appeal that the Circuit
Court decision was Contrary to

Council had no authority to pass
the non-partisan legislation and
implied that the Statewide Lind

cause the council election is sched-

Census Enumerutors Start
Work On Saturday. April I
The Unpopular Question Of "HOw Much Did You
Make Last Year?" Need Not Be Answered
Verbally = Just Send In Card

Saturday,, April l will mark the
start of the doorbell ringing over
the nation in the 18th Decennial
Census of the United States, the
biggest and most expensive quiz in
the history of our country. The first
census was taken in 1890, when
seventeen U. S. marshals with 900
assistants found the number, age
and sex of less than 100000 peo-
pie in II states of the Union and
asked them if they were free or
slaves.
About eight basic questions and
a few more sample queries will be
given the average person. Every
fifth person will be asked forty or
more and the farmers quiz will in
clude as many as 100 questions.
One of the questions asked every
fifth person will be how much
money they have made and how
they made it. There is no need TO
answer this question verbally, the
enumeration will give a card to the
citizen and the card can be mailed
into the Census Bureau, if he asks
for it.
Farmers will receive their list
of questions in the mail several
days before the visit of the work
er so that they will have the ans
wers ready when the enumerator
calls. Most of these forms have
already been mailed.
The questions to be asked you
will be your name, age, address,
occupation, where your father and
mother were born and when, the
number in your household, the head
of the household, number of chill
dren, their age, school grade,
whether or not you are employed,
where, and for how long, if not
working, when you last worked.
The enumerator may then ask you
if you have ever been married, how
long, how many times, how many
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1950-03-30

years, how many children alto
gether, where you lived year ago,
what your former occupation was
and so on.
More questions for every fifth
person may include these: what
was the highest grade of school
ever attended; did you finish this
grader; if under 80 years of age,
have you attended school any time
since February l? Were you living
in this county, on a farm, in the
same house or apartment a year
ago? That is the lead into the
housing census, in which the work.
er will want to find out what type
of house or apartment you live in,
how many people live in how many
rooms and in what condition is the
dwelling. Have you got hot and
cold running water, a sink, an out
house or bathtub with glass-en-
closed shower? Do you heat with
coal or do you cook with electricity
or are you cooking with gas?
The farmer will be asked to tell
all about his animals, his crops,
soil erosion, feed consumption and
lot of other things vital to the
Agriculture Department.
This years nose count will in
clude every person in every home,
house or hotel. On T-Night IT
for transient), every traveller or
floater registered at any hotel, hos
tel or motel will be counted. A
special T-Night is set aside for
Bowery Buns, hobos, rod-riders
and other migrants. Even on the
high seas special enumerators will
count noses.
