Redskins Rated Next to Browns
by Colts, but Ball Finds Flaws

backer and later became a cas-
ualty himself.
Coach Herman Ball Of the Red
skins agreed with some critics
that it was the Redskins shod-
diest performance to date.
We'll have to play better tl.an
we did today to get anywhere in
this league" he said. We've got
to capitalize on situations when
we have the passer trapped behind
the line. Too many have been
getting away. little got % yards
on one play after we had him
way behind the line"
Shades of 1912. Sammy Baugh
not only called for double-wing
formation with a direct snap from
center in the second period, but
followed with 58-yard quick kick
that caught the Colts flat-footed.
The ball rolled dead on Balti-
more's %.
The Redskins recovered four of
six Colt fumbles, Laurie Niemi
getting two and Ed Berrang and
Jerry Houghton one each. Niemis
recovery of Rip Collins bobble
set up the Tribes first touchdown
in the opening period.
The official paid attendance of
26,654 was good, everything con-
sidered-especially in view of the
Colts seven setbacks in a row. II
was the Tribes sixth consecutive
victory. Judging from the noise
every time the Colts gained. there
may be a possibility of building up
strong inter-city rivalry be-
tween fans of the two cities.
Joel Williams, Colt center who
got the Redskins into a court bat
tie with the Richmond Rebels
last year. was bounced out of the
game, along with Gene Pepper
Tribe guard, for being too rough
in the final period.
Ball conceded the Colts short
gain passes between the, 20-yard
lines. He didn't want Chem to
complete any long ones for six
points.

Board Refuses Survey

The Prince Georges County
Commissioners today turned down
fatty a request for survey OF the
county government by an outside
agency.
The study was requested Tues
day by the League of Women
Voters. the Civic Federation and
the American Association of Uni

Noting that their answer was to
be used in opposition to the county
government bill now pending be-
fore the General Assembly, the
commissioner said:
Under the circumstances the
commissioners unanimously con-
cluded that no survey be requested
at this time"
Support and opposition to the
bill was expressed by Prince

the Beltsville Grange. Earlier, the
League of Women Voters declared
the measure is designed to
strengthen the Democratic organi-
zation's hold on county affairs.

Coal Strikers Receive

PITTSBURGH, Feb. 16 (P.-
CIO and AFL labor groups came
to the aid of striking soft-coal
miners today with donations of
food and money in some sections
OF the country.
Idle diggers also obtained sacks
of free Government surplus pota-
toes, distributed by Government
officials.
The walkout, in defiance of
stop strike orders of both John
L. Lewis and a Federal court,
appeared sure to continue at least
to the end of the week. The 372,-
900 idle miners VOW they won't
work without a contract. They
say current contract talks in
Washington do not change things.

Judge Richmond B. Keech, who

Public Workers
Continued From First Page J

President Philip Murray last No
vember to consider charges
against UPW, declared that the
union present leadership is the
same which led the former State,
County and Municipal Workers
in the tortuous paths of the
Communist Party for years"
UPW was formed in 1946 by a
merger of the SCMWA and the
United Federal Workers. The
history of the UFWA, prior to
the merger, docs not exhibit the
shifts and contortions that
SCMWA policy does" the COM
mittee stated. The new UPW
lost no time in declaring its
stand" that was identical with
the Communist Party line on
practically all issues, the COM
mittee added.
Replying to what it described
as the UPW's attempts to identify
the CIO itself with Communist
policies and to assert that the
CIO made an 'undemocratic"
breakdown on the UPW, the COM
mittee declared:
The committee feels it is nee
eSsary to state most emphatically
that the committees conclusion
against UPW) is not based on
any theory that the international
unions composing the CIO must
conform to CIO policy or be
labeled disloyal The charge
against the UPW is not that it
differs from CIO policy. Unions
have a right to differ on policy
matters. ." The charge against
the UPW is much more funda-
mental.
Testimony Is Summarized.
ut is that UPW does not adopt
its policies on the basis of any
honest objectives of American in
dustrial unionism set forth in the
CIO constitution, but rather
adopts policies and takes actions
with regard only to the achieve
ment of the anti-thetical pur-
poses of the Communist Party.
The charge, in short, is disloyalty
to American trade unionism.
The committees report sum-
married testimony Of two major
witnesses against UPW. One was
Charles Rindone, who said Flaxer
and other officials attended Com
munist Party meetings at which
the SCMWA policies were deter
mined. Mr.. Rindone described
himself as former Communist,
The other witness was Joseph
Adamson, a UPW organizer, who
said he saw frequent signs of
close ties between UPW moves
and policies and those of the
Communists.
Mr.. Flaxer. the report stated,
did not deny to the committee
that he was or is Communist.
He made such a denial at a press
conference while the hearings
were in progress, the report noted.

Teachers Pay Raised

Teachers salaries will be in
creased as much as S700 year
under a new pay scale approved
last night by the Falls Church
School Board.
The scale ranges from $4,000
to $4,000. The minimum will
apply to teachers with normal
school training but no classroom
experience. The maximum will
go to those with master degrees
and ID years of teaching.
While the new schedule will be-
come operative in September,
school officials said, the entire in
crease may not be granted then.
But they predicted it will be in
full effect within two or three
years.
The board reserved the right
to increase individual salaries
more than amounts provided in
the scale.

'StromboIi' Inferior

that the picture "Stromboli' is not
as good as the Ingrid Bergman
story behind its filming.
Nearly all of the critics inter-
viewed in the lobby of the Pantages

day expressed dissatisfaction with
the picture. Some of the answers
were flip: THE volcano was the
high point in the picture" II
think James Fitzpatrick (the
travelogue maker) has done it
better" Il don't think it was
worth the trip-for Bergman or
me"
More serious critics praised Miss
Bergman's acting, but found fault
with the story. Said one: Il don't
think it is up to the high standards
of Roberto Rossellini. The climax
is weak, even the music was let
down"
Andy Devine was the sole Hol-
lyWood name noted at the show
ing. Il thought the picture was
good,,' said the hulking comic.

reaction was generally similar.
