Elephant That Crushed Child
To Be Put 10 Death by Circus
By ths Associated Press

SARASOTA, Fla, Mar. 28.-
Dolly. a circus elephant. must pay
with her life for crushing a s.
year-old child to death.
The 27-year-old work beast
stomped the child's head beneath
her massive foot at the Ringing
Bros. and Barnumt& Bailey quar-
ters here Sunday.
The child, Roger Schooley, was
feeding peanuts to several ele-
plants when Dolly seized him
with her trunk and dashed him
to the ground. The animal had a
reputation for gentleness.
Henry Ringing North, the cir
Gus president, said last night that
Dolly would be led to huge pit
dug for the purpose, given an
overdose of some narcotic, and
will be buried where she falls and
dies.
Dolly's execution will take place
before the circus breaks its win
ter quarters here Thursday.
Roger was the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Elmer Schooley Of Las
Vegas, N. Mex. The father is
studying at the Ringing School
of Art here. He is a professor at
Highlands University at Las
Vegas.
An investigation into the child's S
death is being conducted by w. M

Issue Of Federal Aid

On Junior Colleges

ROANOKE, Va, Mar. o. Del
egates to the 30th annual conven-
ton of the American Association
of Junior Colleges today weighed
the effects of Federal aid on their
institutions.
Resuming sessions of their four
day meeting, the educators consi-
dered divergent views of two
speakers on the program yester-
day.
DR.. Jesse P. Bogue, the associa-
tons executive director, urged
members to resist any Federal aid
which might include controls.
ANY grant from the Federal
Government which would destroy
the ability of the community COL
leges (used as a synonym for
junior college by the delegates) to
meet their own demands would be
disastrous" he declared.
Citizenship Training Urged.
THE only form of acceptable
grants must leave the schools free
to meet the demands of their par
ticular communities, not put them
in a straitjacket."
DR.. Bogue also suggested fur
ther training for citizenship and
fuller living, even at the expense
of technical skills.
A more tolerant view of Fed
eral funds was expressed by Fran
els j. Brown, staff associate of
the American Council on Educa-
ton.
Fear of using public funds is
unjustif1ed in terms of current de-
velopments, Mr.. Brown told the
delegates. He said grants in
various form already have been
accepted by educational institu-
tions.
It is no longer logical for an
individual to say. II am opposed
to Federal aid to education" he
contended. "One can say, I am
opposed to this type of Federal
aid to education.
Need Of Secondary Training.
William r. Wood, United States
Office of Education specialist on
junior colleges. stressed the i'm
portance of the junior college in
a nation where secondary school
training is becoming increasingly
common.
At least half of the annual age
groups will now complete high
school education. he said, adding
that about three-fourths of high
school graduates are dumped into
the labor market at a critical
period Of their lives.
"The community college can
make this change gradual through
further training" he said. Young
men and women will be better
able to accept adult responsible
ity."
He urged a community college
within the geographical reach OF
every youth in the Nation.
Mr.. Wood suggested the COM
munity colleges concentrate on
the teaching Of citizenship and
human relations as we'll as on
technical skills.

event-the address of the Presi-
dent-Which completed the eve
ming ceremonies.
Although the entertainers who
performed were undoubtedly of
the very first rank, nevertheless,
taking into consideration the pur-
pose of the dinner, the program
as a whole and the relation of the
musical numbers to the dinner
and principal ceremonies of the
evening, it would not square with
realities to say these few musical
numbers altered the whole nature
of the affair.
Accordingly, it is the conclu-
sion of this Office that the dinner
in question should be held not
to be subject to the admissions
tax
In ruling that the cabaret tax
also did not apply to the Jeffer-
jackson dinners, Mr.. OH
phant said:
In the instant case, the scene
Iof the Jefferson-Jackson dinner
was the National Guard Armory
lin Washington. Normally the
National Guard Armory is used
for basketball games, exhibitions
and the like. 1t appears that
diners are very rarely held in the
place and entertainment is ordi-
narily not furnished in connection
with the selling of food or refresh
ments. In any event it could in
no sense be considered to be a
roof garden or cabaret as those
terms are commonly understood
Nor does it normally have the
same general characteristics as a
roof garden or cabaret.
COP Paid $4,000 in Tax.
Therefore, it is the opinion OF
this Office that the amounts paid
the Jefferson-Jackson Dinner Com
mittee are not subject to the
cabaret tax.
The Republican Lincoln Day
Box Supper. given February 6
was a political rally-just as was
the Jefferson-Jackson Dinner. It
was attended by leading members
of the Republican Party, includ-
ing House Minority Leader Mar
tin, Senators Taft of Ohio, Wherry
of Nebraska and many others
many of whom delivered short
speeches which were carried over
the radio, as was the speech OF
President Truman.
The Republicans pointed out to-
day that approximately 10000 per-
sons paid $1.20 for admission tc
the supper party-the 20. cents be.
ing the Federal admissions tax
This netted the Federal Govern
ment upward of $4,000. The boz
suppers were sold for 81 each anc
bore no tax. The COP committee
it was said, asked the internal
Revenue Bureau for ruling anc
were told that the ticket could be
so divided, but that the admis-
sions tax must be paid. The Re.
publicans also had entertainment
singing and general dancing by
those attending.
In 1948, the Republicans gave

Hotel. 1t was intended-like the
Democratic dinners-to raise con.
tributions of 500 or more. Mem.
bers of the committee said today
that after informal discussion!
with the Internal Revenue Bureau
they decided that the 20 per CEN

Tie Shaw
BY Bob keefer

A momentary defense let-up cost
the Shaw gridders a victory and
enabled scrappy Collinwood
eleven to turn an apparent loss
into a TT tie in a bitter neighbor-
hood scrap at Shaw Stadium last
Friday night before a crowd of
5000 enthusiastic fans.
The Cardinals tailed in the sec
ond period on Mike Vara's 6-yard
end sweep and doggedly held their
advantage until four minutes had
elapsed in the final canto. At that
point the Shaw secondary got
caught mapping on an off-tackle
thrust by Joe Trivisonno, Collin
woods talented sophomore half
back, who started to his right and
then cut back, slipped through the
arms of two would-be Cardinal
tacklers and OUTRAGED George
Shriver down the sideline for
72-yard scoring jaunt.
Ralph Ferrara then split the up
rights with perfect placement
and the Railroaders STAYED off a
desperate Shaw scoring thrust in
the final minute to gain a hard
fought deadlock.
Shaw's touchdown came about
when George Measor took Trivi-
sonnno's punt on the so and raced
to the Collinwood 6, Tackle Frank
Langdon paving the way with a
nice block. Vara then deposited the
ball in the end zone on the next
play and Sophomore Len DiLillo
booted the extra point to put the
East Clevelanders ahead. The
Cardinals muffed an excellent
chance to pull the game out of the
fire in the final period when a
daring pass play on fake punt
missed connections. With the
scoreboard showing six minutes of
play remaining, fourth down and
two yards to go, Vara dropped
back to punt with the ball on the
Shaw 39-yard line. Instead, he
flipped pass which dropped be-
tween Gene Pattie and Gerasimos
both of whom were in the clear
with the Collinwood secondary
playing deep for the expected kick.
Both teams appeared ragged of
fensively, the Railroaders showing
lack of polish in the execution of
their newly-installed Information
plays. The Cardinals could gain
Cd yards by rushing and were
ineffective in the air as
they completed only of II passes
thrown. Collinwood made six first
downs to Shaw's four but, thanks
to Trivisonno's long run, picked
up 159 yards on running plays.

City Studies
Water Rates

Continuing their study of the
Cleveland proposal to boost water
rates, city officials are seek
ing still further information as to
the cause of the increase.
In reply to a request, they have
received from Mayor Thomas A..
Burke a report setting forth the
reasons for the requested 33 per-
cent boost, but the suburban Off
cials want to know just how the
figures were arrived at and are
asking other questions to clarity
the report.
Aiding them in their perusal of
the problem is A. B. Roberts, a con-
sulting engineer with wide ex-
perience in rate making for public
utilities.
East Cleveland is one of the sub
urbs which face the requested in
crease in water rates. At present
it enjoys one of the lowest rates
in the country, due to efficiency in
the operation and maintenance of
its own distribution system.

Fort Signs
With Tribe
By Bob Keefer

Dick Fort erstwhile Shaw
basketball and baseball star who
graduated in June, has signed a
professional contract with the
Cleveland Indians after a summer
of dickering and indecision about
his ultimate athletic career.
Fort, generally regarded as the
best basketball player in Shaw cage
history, had received several scho-
larship offers from leading colleges
and universities throughout the
country but the lure of a profess
sional baseball career proved too
attractive to ignore.
Fort was signed to a San Diego
contract and will report to the
Indians minor league training
camp at Daytona Beach, Fla. next
spring where he will probably be
assigned to their Class G club at
Pittsfield, Mass. The 18-year old
shortstop, who lives at 1909 Holy
oke ave-, was given a generous
cash bonus for mixing the Cleve-
land contract and will also be given
the opportunity to further his edu-
cation at any college he may
choose. The pro contract, however,
erases his amateur status and
makes him ineligible to participate
in collegiate athletics.
Dick had also been approached
by scouts representing the ST..
Louis Cardinals, New York Yank-
ees and Philadelphia Phillies but
preferred to cast his fate with the
Indians. He had worked out at the
Cleveland Stadium on several oc-
casions this SUMMER with Hank
Greenberg, Lou Boudreau, Scout
Laddie Placek and other club Off
cials in attendance and all of the
"big-wigs" were impressed by his
hitting and fielding. The g. 8"
youth, who tips the scales at 1873
lbs, led the Shaw team to the
Lake Erie League championship
last spring, hitting .442 and field
ing with exceptional skill. Three
Of the five home runs he clouted
won important ball games and he
was at his best when "the chips
were down."
The ex-Shawite had Just about
decided to accept a basketball scho-
larship at University of Cincinnati
last week but changed his mind
at the last minute. There is a good
possibility, however, that Uncle
Sam will softer" Fort different
type Of contract in the near future
in which case his professional
baseball debut will be temporarily
referred. At any rate, we feel that
Dick has an excellent opportunity
to make the majors in a few sea-
sons. All East Cleveland will cer-
tainly be pulling for him.

1t might we'll be said that the
Shaw football team is "fit to be
tied" after their first two games
on the 1850 schedule but Coach
Bob Cawrse and his eager charges
are determined to deviate from
their deadlock dilemma" when
they face strong Euclid eleven
in an Independent game at Shaw
Stadium tomorrow night.
The Cardinals, held to a 1919
tie by East in their opener and a
TT draw with Collinwood last
week, rate a better than even
chance to enter the victory COL
umn against the invading Pan
theirs.
Our neighbors from East 222nd
st. have chalked up two straight
victories to date, whipping Ash
tabula, 20-6, and edging Shaker,
1912, but scouting reports indi-
cate that their offense has not
been too we'll co-ordinated. Unable
to move consistently on the
ground, the Panthers have been
forced to take to the air when
they reach scoring territory, three
of their five touchdowns resulting
from pass plays.
Principal target in the Euclid
passing attack has been Stan In
thar, 6 ft. 2-in. junior end, who
has caught all three of the touch
down passes, two from Bob Setron,
senior quarterback, and one from
Bill Schneider, a promising soph-
omore signal-caller. Coach Sparky
DiBiasio is short Of experienced
performers on the Euclid squad
with only fourteen lettermen avail
able from the '49 club which
dumped Shaw, 1877. The mono
gram winners are: End Norton
Boston, Tackle Andy Dorfeld, Gen.
ter Bob Behnke and Fullback Ron
Potakar.
Coach DiBiaso used the
two-platoon system very effec-
lively against Ashtabula in the
opening game but, since the, de-
fensive unit functioned poorly last
week in the Shaker contest, the
chunky mentor will probably scrap
the plan tomorrow night.
Coach Cawrse has made two ma
jor revisions in the Shaw often
sive lineup after experimenting
during the late stages of the Col
linwood game and in practice
drills this week. Duane Gerasimos,
who has experienced only mediocre
success as a passing quarterback
for the Cardinals, has been shifted
to left end where he will operate
on the receiving end of the Shaw
aerials. Don Kramer, who served
last season as Gerasimo's under
study, has been promoted to a
starting berth and will call the
plays and flip the pigskin when
the Cardinal running attack stalls.
Sophomore Ken Horton, in addition
to retaining his assignment as the
