Ohio Probe Sought;
Called Graveyard
OF Grid Coaches
BY the Associated Press

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Feb. 16.-
The Ohio House of Representa-
tives has been asked to investigate
the athletic department of Ohio
State University - termed "the
graveyard of football coaches"
That's what State Representa-
tive Howard w. Oyster said yester-
day the school has been known as.
Ohio State has had five coaches
in the last decade and is looking
for a sixth to fill the vacancy left
by Yves Fesler, now of Minnesota
Oyster, who did not attend Ohio
State, wants particularly to know
whether tax money is spent on
sports there because he says he's
against that.
His resolution called for the
House Finance Committee, which
passes on appropriations to the
State supported school, to con-
duct the inquiry. The House took
no immediate action on Oysters
request.

Marty FurgoI, Leader
AT Har|ingen, Wes
Ready 10 Quit Tour
BY the Assoeioted Press

HARLINGEN, Tex, Feb. To-
The $4,000 Rio Grande Valley
Open pushed into its second round
today with the field chasing Marty
Furgol. a golfer who's looking for
a job.
The tall Long Beach, Calf, pro-
fessional who has won only pocket
change thus far on the seven
week tournament trail, yesterday
whipped par by six strokes over
the battered, muddy 6,095-yard
Harlingen municipal course and
his IS stood up as the lead.
He was just one stroke ahead of
veteran Henry Ransom of st. An
drews. ILL.,, and Chuck Klein of
San Antonio. Tex, when 1875
players of the original field of 146
answered the call to the tee today.
Marty grinned all over. Last
week. when he failed to finish in
the money of the Texas Open
at San Antonio, he said he guessed
he'd just have to quit. His total
bankroll on the winter tour was a
puny $480-earned by taking 10th
in the Los Angeles Open. But a
new sponsor came along and he
found he could go through this
tournament and also the Houston
Open next week.
Plays in Championship Style.
So Furgol is after the top money
and then he'll be interested in
good club job somewhere.
Marty played the very difficult
courSe-made so by weather con-
ditions-yeSterday in champion
ship style. He conquered the back
nine-toughest nut for most of
the pros to crack-in "a strokes,
2 under par.
Ransom was considered the
strongest challenger. The big
Texan, who is one of the top
money winners of the year, pitched
in an eagle with his fine &c. 1t
was on the back nine and enabled
him to take a 4-under 80 there.
It was the best second nine of
the day. Ransom scored the
eagle with a wedge shot of 25
yards.
Some of the top-rated fellows
failed to get into the par-breaking
bracket. Lloyd Mangrum of Chi
cago, for instance. did an even
par II, as did E. j. Dutch) Har-
rison of st. Andrews, Ill.,, the
Texas Open champion. Man
grum, leading money winner of
the year, has been the big favorite
for $4,000 first money here.
Burke Shoots So.
Jack Burke, jr., of Houston, an
Iother favorite-he's the defend
ing champion-did quite all right.
He had 2-under-par SO and was
in seventh place, in good position.
A stroke better were Ed Furgol of
Royal Oak, Mich, the golfer with
the withered arm; Glenn Teal of
Jacksonville. Fla, and Max Evans
of Detroit.
Among the casualties were
Clayton Heafner of Charlotte,
N. c., a tough campaigner who
couldn't play because of illness,
and Fred Haas, jr.. of New Or
leans, who was disgusted over
his first nine and withdrew. He
didn't turn in card for even the
first nine.
Lew .Worsham of Oakmont, Pa,
scored a II.

Liverpool and Birkenhead and the
walkout's leaders were trying to
call stoppage in London.
The waterfront strike was un-
official, and was believed to be
Communist inspired whatever the
reality of the grievances. Arthur
Deakin, secretary Of the Transport
e. General Workers Union to which
most Of the strikers belonged, said
the efforts to spread the dispute
to London "bears the imprint Of
Communist headquarters"
The British dock workers were
asking for a guaranteed daily min
imum Of $3.50 (25 shillings).
Across the channel in Antwerp,
Belgium, Communists were report
ed ready to call another dock strike.
In Manchester, $4,000 engineer
ing workers dissatisfied with ma
tional wage settlement were parti-
cipating in ego slow" movement
and there was a possibility that
10000 would strike soon. A new
grievance was the dismissal of 200
workers at plant which closed
down because Of the ego slow"
movement.
Observers were confident that
the entire Manchester situation was
being manipulated by a few Com
munists out to disrupt defense in
dustries. 1t was the old, old story
familiar to many American union
lists. The Communists were seiZing
upon grievances to fan discomfort.
Meanwhile, the British Institute

special manpower assistant to Mrs.

Wilson said the manpower policy
committee headed by Flemming
would advise him on all problems
relating to effective use of the ma
tons manpower, including alloca-
tion of workers to essential indus
tries; review federal policies and
recommend ways to make them
more effective; write legislative
proposals, executive orders and
regulations on manpower.
Budget Director Frederick j.
Lawton, testifying before House
subcommittee on executive eXpendi-
lures Feb. 8 pointed out that the
committees powers were strictly
limited to giving advice. He said
Wilson's office had no legal power
to exercise the kind of broad man
power controls which prevailed
during World War ii.
Tobin already had set up a de-
fense manpower office in the Labor
Department and wanted to organ
ize his own advisory committee.
Under such an arrangement, Tobin
would have reported directly to
President Truman and Wilson
would have been by-passed. Labor
has feared Wilson would throw
manpower into the hands of Gen.
Lucius Clay, one of his top aides,
who is believed to be unfriendly to
labor's viewpoint.
