bership if in the union"
Z In support of the accusation, the
union says it has noticed for sew
eral months that Negro applicants,
particularly women, are "given nc
consideration at-all, while white
applicants were steadily being
hired"
To test and establish the fact
that discriminatory hiring prac-
tees were being used, the union
sent two white women to apply for
work. On the same day, the union
said 13 Negro women had been
told that no n was being hired.
Continuing their complaint, the
union said the white women were
taken to a room in the rear of
the employment office, inter-
viewed, hired and put to work.
One Of the women, Eleanor Sal
kind, was asked by the foreman,
William Cummings, if she knew
any other "white girls" who would
like to work at Swift. He is said
to have explained, "You see, we
got a lot of colored people here
during the war and now we can't
get rid of them"
A spokesman for Swift, how
ever, denied that there was any
discrimination in it's hiring policy.
He said the company definitely
has no policy of discrimination in
employment.
The official also said that while
no records are kept of the num-
Der of employees by race, that more
than half of the plant force is
colored. There are no Negroes en-
ployed in the offices as clerks OIL
typists, however.

NEW YORK (ANP) With the
pro season over in New York here
are a few impressions, garnered
from observing both sections of
the new league operating at the
Polo Grounds and the Yankee
Stadium.
Most exciting football player of
the entire season, no matter what
he did, running, fumbling, missing
passes, scooting about on the field;
Buddy Young of the Yanks.
Most valuable and greatest de-
fensive back on any team; Emlen
Tunnel of the Giants.
Most unsportsmanlike statement
Of the season, Greasy Neale's al
legged remark that he'd like to see
any team win the championship ex-
cept the Cleveland Browns. Well!
Most disheartened and debated
bunch of football players-the
same Philadelphia Eagles against
the Cleveland Browns that Sept
ember night the Browns almost
chased the Eagles out of Munich
pal Stadium.
Most futile team; the Baltimore
Colts.
"Mostest and bestest" fast backs;
the Los Angeles Rams.
Most enthusiastic pro player in
the entire league, Bob (Stonewall)
Jackson of the Giants. He just
loved to play, that's all.
Most missed player of the year;
Bob Mann. Both the Detroit Lions
and the New York Yanks could
have used old "Glue-fingers" more
than once.
Most moderated player on any
team, Bill Willis Of the Browns.
The other boys got the press not
ices; Bill just played a whale of
a game.
Most disappointing games of the
year, the Browns VS. the Giants
as far as the Browns were con-
cerned, the Giants VS. the Yanks.
The Yanks disintegrated after
whacking the Big Bad Bears.

Cop|on Lawyers Seek
Appeals Delay

The United States Court of Ap-
peals here today was asked to
postpone hearing oral arguments
on the appeal Of Judith Coplon
from her District Court conviction
on attempting to portray national
security secrets.
Postponement Of the appeal
argument from April % was asked
pending final disposition of a mo-
ton to be made in District Court
for a new trial on the basis of
newly discovered evidence. An
other reason given for asking the
postponement was to allow New
York attorneys, to be substituted
for counsel who represented her
in the local trial, additional time
to prepare for argument on the
appeal.
Miss Coplon was convicted here
last summer on charges of at
tempting to portray national Sc
curity secrets and of removing
certain confidential records from
the Justice Department. where she
was employed. She was sentenced
to serve a total of 40 months
to 10 years, but has remained out
on bond pending appeal from her
conviction. Since her conviction
here she has also been sentenced
to Is years in New York for plot
ting to spy for Russia.
The motion asking postpone
ment was filed through Attorneys
Max L. Rosenstein and Archibald
Palmer, who represented her at
the Washington trial.

ness to get out of work.
Pvt. Ralph w. Harper, of Hy-

pulled December 20 and was on
sick leave for 46 days from Janu-
ary % to March 6. He said he
suffered the entire time with a
