But, horrors, George has dis
covered there are even people
from labor's ranks-especially
poor little me. According to
Georges theory, simply because
l come from labor / am not
worthy to represent American
people and not capable of repre-
senting all the people.
/ will tell you a little secret,
George, that l have told you
before. Any man or woman who
is elected to public office is
elected because the majority of
his constituency who vote agree
with his or her point of view on
public issues at the time of the
election. The best representative
of people gives full and cour-
.teous hearing to all points of
view, even the minority among
his constituents. However, if he
or she abandons the stand on
issues which brought about cleo

Rote shot down the Southeast
ern Conference. team with two

Tech fought doggedly but was
out razzled-dazzled by the Meth
odists, who were hiding the ball
even from the crowd of $4,000
that rocked the Cotton Bowl.
1t was a loosely played game but
the kind the fans like to see
long, glittering runs, lofty passes,
and rough and tumble play in the
line.
Tech whipped together 256
yards on the ground-49 more
than the Methodists-but SMU
was all there in the air, complet-
ing Is passes for 223 yards. Tech
connected on two for IL yards.

The Packers have enough good

chase of veteran Quarterback

play tomorrow is conjectural.
If not, Tobin Rote. tall, 200-pound

A crowd Of 1000 saw the sea-

Furman. aided by the w. and L.

a 6-6 deadlock at halftime. But
the Purple Hurricane lacked the
necessary punch to stay with the
Virginians in the second half.
Big Walt Michaels, 21O-pound
fullback from Swoyerville, Pa. was
the main punch thrown by Wash

two touchdowns and two extra

He retired the first six men but
ran into trouble in the third. After
back-to-back singles by Joe Cor

retired the next two batters, but
walked Bob Kennedy to load the
bases. He served two more bad
pitches to Dolby and then was
forced to come in with a fat one.
Dolby promptly picked it high and
far over the left center field fence,

The homer, 9th off Houtteman

Zeckendorf, a power in real es-

estate operator who owns the
Pirates.
This is purely an investment. "
Zeckendorf said.

Before Hickey can complete the

Hickey. Walter O'Malley and
the late John L. Smith agreed to
this arrangement. Since the agree

that the Redskins probably will

Redskins can't go through it,
they'll call on Sammy Baugh and
