Hoyos to Shoot for IC-4A Title
InMeet at New York Saturday

Sevigne confessed he thought
his 1-mile relay team had its race
won until the last turn, when Tom
voorhees, lost his slim advantage
to Tom Carter of Seton Hall.
Voorhees,, on TV screens. seemed
to have held Carter safe when the
latter made two previous bids to
take the lead, and Sevigne thinks
Carter may have caught his man
mapping on the turn.
Garter made a smart move
jumping Voorhees, on the turn.
You usually can't do it on a turn.
and Tom probably thought he was
safe so coasted a bit"
In the IC-4A games, Sevigne
plans to break up his champion
ship 2-mile team and send the
boys after all-important first
place points. He expects to start
Joyce and La Pierre in the mile
run, Deadly in the 1000 and Bo-
land or Voorhees, in the 900.
Georgetown will run its ''B" team
in the 2-mile relay and also enter
it's mile team. It will have Don
Stonehouse and Bugs Thompson
in the sprints. The latter two
failed to place in the AAU meet,
but Sevigne thinks the IC-4A
competition will not be as keen
and that they may add a couple
of points to the Hoyas' team score.

Saturday night. At that time,
Sevigne plans to spread his men
over broader portion of the pro-
gram and shoot for the team
championship. But the two-milers
have two more meets, the K. of C..
games in New York March 3 and
Cleveland K. of c. games March
10, in which to try for better time.
Sevigne pointed out that Dave
Boland, his lead-off man, was
bumped and knocked back into
last position at the start of the
AAU race. The Georgetown run
ner out in front at the first turn
was Pat O'Brien of the Hoyas'
"B" team.
"Boland ran a smart race"
commented Sevigne. "He kept his
head and went by the whole field
at one bid instead of passing one
by one. He lost a little time on
that start. It wasn't his fault,
but we did lose the time.
I'VE lost more time on Joe
Deady's anchor Leg" the coach
continued. 1--WE Tapped all but
two teams and Joe had to run in
and out like a fellow with a foot
ball under his arm. Some were
just passing off the baton when
Deady reached them and he had
to run through them and we lost
some time there"
An unofficial clocker caught the
Hoya 2-milers ON their half-mile
stints as follows: Boland. 1:57.5;
Joe LaPierre, 1884; Carl Joyce.
1853; Deadly, 1884. With little
better luck. Sevigne is reasonably
certain the team would have
knocked an additional 2 seconds

Betting Not Confined to Garden

By the Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK. Feb. 19.-College
basketball coaches and officials
generally expressed concern and
shock today over the latest bet
ting scandal.
Three City College stars. an
NYU player and two other per-
sons were arrested yesterday on
charges of bribery in connection
with attempts to Ak games.
Here's some of the various COM
ment:
Dr. Hugh c. Willett. president
of the NCAA: "This matter is of
great concern to the NCAA. Al
though we have no particular
jurisdiction in such cases, we nat
urally would want TO do whatever
we could to combat this sort Of

"Not Confined to Garden"
Ned Irish, director of Madison

plorable situation. It could be a
blow to all sports. But gambling
isn't confined to the Garden or
New York City"
Howard Cam, NYU coach: "It's
terrible situation. but maybe it's
brought about by unsettled times.
A few rotten apples don't spoil
the whole barrel"
Nat Holman. CCNY coach: I'm
deeply upset. I am going to sit
down with college officials and
discuss this whole situation with
them. Until do that, don't feel
that I should make a statement. /"

pointed in Eddie Gard"

letics: 1--WE have hundreds Of fine

Fred Enke, Arizona coach: "I

Toledo Represented At
C|O Legislative Meeting
LITTLE TAFT-HARTLEY LAW

LITTLE TAFT-HARTLEY LAW
Senate BiIl-213 introduced by
Senator David Ferguson R.,
Cambridge is intended to out
Taft Hartley, the TaftH Hartley
Law.
What The Bill Does
The bill completely outlaws
the closed shop under any cir
|cumstances.
1t surrounds the Union Shop
with more. legalistic red tape
than exists i'm the Taft Hartley
Law. 1t prohibits the firing of
any employee under Union
shop contract for any reason
other than non-payment of dues
or initiation fees.
1t prohibits and restricts pick
citing to such a degree that it
might even be construed to bar
peaceful picketing.
1t opens the door to legal ac-
tions designed to drain Union
treasures dry, and sets up stiff
jail sentences and fines for vio-
lations of its many provisions.
Why CIO Opposes The Bill
An obvious anti-Labor mea-
sure, S.B.-213 is designed to
make Labor Unions weak and
1t ignores the fact that
the Taft Hartley Law already
prohibits closed shops, and sur
rounds Union shops with legal
istic red tape. BY going further
than Taft Hartley, S.B.-213 en-
courages anti-Labor employers
to attack Unions on two fronts.
Many of the arguments used
against the Taft Hartley Law
are equally valid as arguments
against S.B.-213.
For example, Taft-Hartley
Law elections for Union shops
have proven that workers want
Unions, for the vote in favor of
Union shops has been ne ely
98 20. But S.B.-213 still attacks
Union shops.
By prohibiting the firing of
under Union shop
Except for non-pay-
ment of dues and initiation fees)
S.B.7213 requires Union men to
work with company spies and
others whose sole purpose is to
break the Union.
What's Heppened To The Bill
S.B.-213 was introduced on
Thursday, March /. At the next
regular session, on March S, it
was automatically referred to
the Senate Committee on Com
merce and Labor.
