School Board Meets
In Falls Church 10
Consider Resiqning

The Falls Church School Board
was in closed session late last
night trying to decide whether to
continue in Office or resign en-
maSse as the City Council pressed
an investigation of school affairs,
The board received requests
from more than 100 residents
asking that the seven members
stay on.
More than so citizens crowded
into the School Board office to
lend support and pledge financial
assistance to board members who
had been accused of maladminiS-
tration.

supporting the School Board and
requesting members to continue
in office were read into the board
minutes by Mrs. Reagan. Many OF
the letters were from civic groups
PTA's and women's clubs.

telling of an awareness of emo

torney's fees than we feel juSti-
fed in paying from the public
budget" Mrs. Mark Regan, board
chairman, declared.
The School Board employed
State Senator Andrew W. Clarke
to represent it in the investigative
sessions held by the City Council.
One Of these sessions was an open
public meeting attended by 200
persons The investigation was
begun after a request of the Falls
Church School Emergency Com
mlttee was approved at the first
meeting Of the new City Council
On September /.
The emergency committee listed
nearly score of charges accusing
the School Board of including too
many frillS in its school building
program and of ending a pupil
exchange program with Fairfax
County without giving considera-
ton to the lack of school space in
the city system.
No Criticism at Meeting.
No voice was raised against
School Board policies during the
open meeting, prior to an execu-
tive session, last night. Many
OF those present had attended a
public hearing at the Madison
School Friday night to support
the School Board, School Supt.
Irwin Schmitt and board policies.
The meeting was sponsored by
the Committee of One Hundred
to Protect the Integrity of Our
Schools.
AS the board adjourned last
nights special meeting, Mrs. Re-
gan said that for the members
to continue in Office would mean
personal sacrifices in business,
health and mental strain and long
hours of work.
The question resolves itself to:
Will there be enough net return
to the children if this board con-
tinues in office? If every ac-
ton of the board is subject to
suspicion we will not have time
to see that the children are taken
care of"
Council Actions ASSailed.
Many of those at last nights

ellis handling of the investigation

want to go to school next year,

is dim.
A. w. Frisby. director of educa-

School Principals
Vote To Abandon
Athletic Zoning'

The Ohio High School Princi-

ped an athletic zoning" petition
aimed chiefly at Catholic schools.
The principals decided to leave
the entire matter in the hands of
the Catholic schools to work out
ION a voluntary basis" reported
Father Edward Spiers, chairman of
the Catholic High School Confer
ence of the Columbus Diocese and
spokesman for the Catholic side.
He estimated possibly so per
cent" of the n public school adj
ministrators who signed the peti-
ton withdrew their names after

AT least so signatures were need

The Sportlight

Grade Gridders

Ball games are ball games and
the scores and statistics tell the
story of what happened-but that
isn't always the most interes sting
story. Very often it's the little
things behind the scenes in sports
that nobody Sees-or the unknown
facts that no one hears about that
prove to be more interesting than
the final score. And that is very
often true in the Diocesan Ele-
mentary football league which was
named in an article in the First
and Ten" Sports magazine as the
finest of its kind in the country.
So maybe from time to time we can
bring a few of those facts this way
for the benefit of anyone who is
interested -.
The twenty-six grade school
teams like their football rough and
tough-just ask any of the coaches.
The weight limit is 100 lbs. and
the leagues are classified as heavy,
middle and light weight but the
poundage oftentime doesn't pay off
for instance, Dom Susi's outfit
over at st. Donlinics weighed in
officially at the beginning of the
season at 88 pounds, ten under the
heaviest of the feather weights =. =.
but so far, they've been burning
up the league-and, they only had
thirteen boys to start with :. yes,
they like it rough and tough and
they play because they love it :.
Versatility was the story of st.
Vincent's q to 13 sweep over Our
Lady of Peace in the Lightweight
leagues third round of games. The
north side team was leading st.
Vincent's by the score of 13 to z
with the first half almost over. st.
Vincent's switched frankie Lamol-
nara from an end position to the
backfield where he had never be-
fore played. Result? frankie re-
versed and passed for the teams
twenty points (attention N0TRE
DAME) but with all Our Lady of
Peace wasn't out. When the
twenty-seventh point bucked over
the two yard line in the last quar-
ter, one faithful substitute was
heard to say, well, we still gotta
chance"
BY the way, Our Lady of Peace
is on the move. This second year
team from a comparatively new
school is we'll coached and is show
ing a lot of spirit.
AS far as we're concerned, the
award for the most alert player of
the season goes to Bob Armen-
trout OF st. John the Evangelist.

Carolians at St. Mary S
Saturday For Grown

Saturday pight is the payoff for
ST. Charles Carolians and st.
Mary's Ramblers. They'll meet
head on at South field with the

football crown the stakes.
BY virtue of their IS to 7 victory
over Rosary last week Thereby
eliminating the Crusaders who had
previously lost to St. Charles) the
Ramblers vastly improved their
chances against the Carolians. The
win was not only an upset but
their first scalp of the season.

touchdown after snagging a Holy
Family bobble of an attempted
reverse lateral on the kickoff. Holy
Family came through to win
though, by a 26 to 20 count in a
game that had lot of thrills and
lot of good football :.
Much credit is due to the teams
and the officials of the schools
who have been sending their teams
to play the Sunday Games at the
Veterans Hospital in Chillicothe.
This plan of the NCCS has been
very helpful to the hospital and
the boys on the teams really have
been producing some football dur

There may be more truth than
humor in Fullerton'S remark, be-
cause no one can deny that the col
lege coach, particularly in the So
called big time" is under ter
rifle and constant pressure. In all
fairness to the Big Ten, however,
the departed coaches of the last
decade are doing all right-Lynn
Waldorf, at California; DR.. Eddie
Anderson, at HOLY CROSS; Wes
Fesler, at Minnesota; Fritz Crisler,
as Michigan's athletic director, and
Harry Stuhldreher, in fine indus
trial job, to name few.
We doubt that you'd ever guess
who is dean of Catholic college
coaches. Car you name the man
who is longer on his present job
than any other in the Catholic
loop.
Well, he happens TO be, at a fit
and hearty 43, Frank Leahy of
N0TRE DAME. This probably will
be surprising news to him. as it
was to us after surveying the BIZ
ographies of all the coaches.
Leahy coached at NOTRE DAME
from 1941 to 1943, before going in
to the service, and from 1916 until
now, which places him in his ninth
season as director of the Irish. Be-
fore that span, for two years, he had
been head man at BOSTON COL.
LEGE.
Eight-year men are DIR. Ander,
son at HOLY CROSS (1933-33 and
1950-51) and Pete Carlesimo,
SCRANTON. The six-year group in
cludes: Ed Danowski, FORDHAM;
Francis Deig, st. Thomas, and Tom
Hearden, ST. NORBERT.
Now in the fifth year on their
present jobs are George (Doc) Jac-
obs, ST. MICHAEL'S (Vt), who,
however, is in his 25th season of
coaching; Eddie kluska, XAVIER,
(o); Joe Gavin, DAYTON, and
Herb Eisele, JOHN CARROLL.
There is no substitute for stats
tics in telling which way the wind
is blowing.
Some of the Catholic teams, We
are glad to say, are doing much
better this fall than had been an
ticipated. Witness the recent week
end when Catholic grid machines
we're at the very top of the column
in eight of the IL categories GOV,

Old and New Items Can Prove Compatible
BY Gladys Miller

Any one born and reared in
America tends to take some of its
unusual aspects for granted. But
people who have adopted our
country as theirs have an inborn
interest in the traditional furnish
ings of their mother countries.
Most of these newcomers hail
from countries that have older
cultures than ours. For centuries
their craftsmen and artists were
of the best. With the worldwide
economic changes taking place. we
may find that much of the talent
displayed by these artists will be
passed up.
1t takes time to make fine
things by hand. 1t takes money to
pay for this time. In our age, al
though more people have more
comforts, there are fewer people
able and willing to pay for the
exquisite. the perfect. Conse-
quently. the fine old things of the
paSt are constantly changing
hands and countries.
New Americans Ideas.
Recently. I had the privilege of
meeting a new American, a man
who loves tradition and who senses
that we love tradition, even
though we are young enough to
see the old related to the new
with some perspective.
This new American is now the
owner of famous restaurant in
New York City.
To be near his work, he took
an apartment above the restau-
rant and furnished it with the
things that reminded him of
home. 1t is interesting to see how
these furnishings of another era
are beginning to f1t the new scene
IL Is interesting to see him add
some contemporary touches tyui-
cally American that make his life
more comfortable.
The room is good size, but not
