BEHIND
HOME PLATE
By DOUG STEWART

The members of the Junior Base
ball Team of the Morris Frock Post
of the American Legion - from
whose ranks Dave Cole, of Williams
port, became a starting pitcher for
the Boston Braves-were the honor
guests at a banquet held on Tuesday
night in the Legion Home.
A number of baseball notables
were present to honor the lads of
the team, who finished the 1851 sea-
son with a fine record of 16 wins and
only 6 losses. The team is managed
by Leroy Metz, with Paul McNeal as
his assistant.
Tonight, at the Halfway Fire Hall,
the Independent League will hold
their annual banquet, with Eddie
Robinson, first baseman of the Chi
cago White Sox, as the guest speak

| was sorry to learn that the "Y"
County Softball League has decided
against holding their annual banquet
this year, and l hope that the de-
cision does not mean that the league
will not operate next year.

Congratulations to Coach Bobby
Dodd on the sportsmanlike way in
which he treated the boys from Da-
wilson College in their game with
Georgia Tech on Saturday afternoon.
Realizing that his team was far too
good for the Davidson lads, Dodd did
not even allow his ace quarterback,
Darrell Crawford, to play at all and
his entire first string team sat in the
stands during the second half.
1t seems a pity that more coaches
don't follow Bobby Dodds fine ex-
ample. The score incidentally was
Georgia Tech "a, Davidson 7.
AS was expected, the Hagerstown
High School final game of the sea-
son at Waynesboro on Thanksgiving
turned out to be nothing more than
light workout for the Maroon and
Gray, and Coach Mel Henry could
very well have followed the fine ex-
ample of Bobby Dodd and retired
his varsity squad at the end of the
first half. For your information the
score was So to 7.

Congress 10 Consider
New GI Bill Taking in
Korean War Veterans
By J. A. O'Leory

A broad new GI Bill of Rights
to cover Korean veterans will be
considered by Congress when 1t
returns, Senate Majority Leader
Mcfarland predicted today.
THE Congress intends that
educational and vocational assist
ance. housing loans and loans to
help them get started in business
shall be available to veterans of
the Korean fighting" said Sena-
tor Mcfarland.
He made the statement in a re-
view of accomplishments of the
first session of the 82d Con-
greSs, which he said compare
well with that of any preceding
session"
Answered Attack.
He pointed out that the last
session had to concentrate on ma
tional defense and foreign policy
because, when it met last Janu-
ary. the free way of life was
under savage attack in Asia and
the alarm bells of danger were
ringing throughout the world"
Senator Mcfarland said this
Congress demonstrated that "a
great free nation could have guns
and butter, too
The steps Congress took during
the last 10 months transformed
the whole atmosphere that pre-
vailed in the world when it met in
January, he said.
To illustrate what he meant, he
pointed out that UN. forces in
Korea fought the Communists to-
q standstill, while the flow of
American arms and men to
Gen. Eisenhower's North Atlantic
Treaty Organization command
had grown strong enough to lift
the cloud of fear from Western
Europe"
In a year dedicated largely to
rearmament, while the Nation
girded itself to meet any Com
munist challenge that might
come" he said, "the American
people were better fed, better
housed and better clothed than
they had ever been before. While
bombers and tanks and artillery
rolled from defense plants, the
American standard of living went
steadily upWard-and American
prosperity spread benefits to mil
lions of other people all over the
world"
Major Accomplishments.
Among the major acts of the
past session, Senator Mcfarland
listed the appropriation of SIT
billion for all phases of national
defense. passage of the new mill
tary manpower bill and the bill
to pave the way for universal
military training system at the
next session. He mentioned also
the S7.3 billion foreign military
and economic aid program.
In the domestic field, he pointed
to extension of the Defense Pro-
duction Act, and the $50 billion
tax bill. Another bill provided
Federal aid for construction of
housing and community facilities
for workers in defense areas.
Some Benefits Extended.
Senator Mcfarland said that,
under the heading of veterans,
the 1851 session already has acted
to give Korean veterans the same
hospital and medical benefits
available to veterans of World
War II and has passed bill max
ing special provision for housing
loans to men returning from Ko-
rea.
His forecast of a new CT Bill of
Rights at the next session related
to other benefits available to
World War II veterans that have
not yet been extended to Korea.
Senator Mcfarland took note of
the fact that, despite the heavy
load of legislation, both houses
took time for many Investigations.

 PROGRAM WILL BE
 RESUMED BY FW5

Inauguration of the spring re- search program C the Fish eand Wildlife Service viii start with the arrival of the research vessels Her on and Sablefish due in Ketchikan over the weekend from Seattle, it was disclosed today at the FWS regional office.
 This will be the third season the Service has carried on it's experi ment with downstream salmon migrant traps which measure the success of the survival of pink sal mon fry through the winter
 At least six migrant trapping stations will be set up in south eastern Alaska in locales considered typical pink salmon streams. Some of the stations established previous ly were found to be not so complete ly pink salmon streams as was de- sired but as far as is possible sta tions used last year will again be utilized this season, FWS officials said. Exact locations for the experi- ment traps will be decided follow ing conferences of biologists aboard the Heron and Sablefish and Fish and Wildlife Service Alaska regional personnel, and a further study of prospective sites,
 The research program to be car ried out this season will also in clude the marking of pink salmon fry by fin clipping in order to trace migrations and the degree of the homing instinct of the salmon. One of the six trapping stations will be designated for this work.
 The field parties in the research program this season will be under the immediate direction of Will Brewington, biologist. The entire program is under the direction of Mitch Hanavan, biologist at the Fish and Wildlife Service Seattle laboratory.

SHIMKIN REPORT
 FORT YUKON AREA
 IS AVAILABLE HERE

A comprehensive survey of the Fort Yukon region-its resource pattern, problems and potential has been published by the Alaska Development Board. Copies are available from the Boards office
 The 50-page report, which was prepared by Dr. Demitri B. Shim- kin of Harvard University under sponsorship of the Arctic Institute of North America and the Office of Naval Research, has been repro duced by special permission of the author.
 Dr. Shimkin is an internationally recognized authority on Arctic and sub-Arctic development, and dur ing World War II occupied an im- portant post in the U. s. War De- partment.
 Field work for the Fort Yukon study was undertaken during the summer of 1949. The Development Board worked closely with pr. Shimkin while he was in the Ter ritory, furnishing information and other assistance.
 Although Fort Yukon, historical ly, occupies an important place in Alaska's development, little infor- nation about resources of the re- zion has been set down heretofore. The information contained in pr. Shimkin's study should facilitate development of this important though remote, region of the Fourth Judicial Division, the Development Board believes.
