Squad Should Be Balanced.
Maryland's squad should be bal

the upper classes with IL of this

iors and 10 sophomores advanc-
ing. The only freshmen carried
on trips this year were Dick Biel-
ski at fullback, Joe Horning at
right half and the Cumberland
youngster with the brilliant
S hoolboy background, Lynn
Beightol, at quarterback. There
will be other frosh moving up,
however, and it is probable the
Terps again will be permitted to
use freshmen next year. How
ever, with the exception of a find
like Horning, Tatum seldom
counts on freshmen.
Spring practice should produce
something interesting as regards
the fullback situation.
In 1949, Ed Fullerton was the
Maryland fullback and Mighty
Mo played halfback. Last March
in spring practice, Modzelewski
was shifted to fullback where he
almost doubled his yardage of
the previous year and won a place
on the Associated Press ALL
America second team and most
valuable player honors in the
Sugar Bowl.
Fullerton Most Valuable.
The change also was good for
Fullerton. He emerged as the
Terps' most valuable all-round
performer.
Now Modzelewski will be gone
but Tatum still has Fullerton.
Will Big Jim put Ed back at the
fullback spot or let Bielski and
Ed Barritt fight for the job? AS
a sophomore, Barritt started the
season with a wonderful day
against Washington and Lee in
his first varsity game, but seldom
has been heard from since. How
ever, Mighty Mo left little oppor-
tunity for his substitutes.

New Deck For
Jet Landings
On Carriers
BY ERN HAUGLAND
AP Aviation Reporter

WASHINGTON lp - The United
States and British Navies hive
invented a new kind of carrier
flight deck-a "side porch" runway
angled off tc the left side of the
snip.
Il Is designed to make landinr
safer and easier for jet aircraft.
And with the far end of the runway
jutting over the port side of the
carrier, the likelihood of a plane
crashing into others parked on the
flight deck, or into the carrier
island, is greatly reduced.
The two NavieS jointly an.
nounced that the new deck ar.
rangement is being installed for
test purposes on the Essex class
carrier Antietam, at the New
York naval shipyards.
There is difference of opinion
as to what it should be called.
The British, who thought up the
idea, call it the angled deck. The
Americans, arguing that ''angled"
might imply slanted or tilted =
WAereas the deck is perfectly level
tentatively call it the canted
deck.
I'VE are open to suggestions, !"
said Rear Adm. T. S. Combs, chief
Of the Bureau of Aeronautics.
One newsman suggested the "
deck, since the angled deck juts
off from the regular flight deck
to form a narrow deck. Other
suggestions: side porch deck,
check deck, cockeyed cornice.
Combs said the conversion of the
Antietam will cost around a million
dollars but should result in even
greater savings in terms of ship
damage, reduced weight and say.
iHgs Of life.
He said carriers with the new
type deck will be unable to pass
through the Panama Canal because
the deck will add about 81 feet to
their top width.
Combs said the safety factor
arises from the fact that the line
Of flight is off to the left side Of
the ship.
''If the plane falls, il goes over
the side Of the deck and only one
plane is lost" he said.
''If the forward firing guns 60

landing, they would discharge into
the water. And if the rockets
should come off in landing, there
would be no danger of them slid

Political Intrigue Revealed
AT New York Crime Hearings

NEW YORK R-Reputed under
world boss Frank Costello emerged
today, in State Crime Commission
testimony, as a man also once
known as ''the boss" around the
Manhattan Democratic organiza-
tons Tammany Hall.
The statement was made yester-
day by former Tammany district
leader as commission witnesses
and previously-undisclosed records
spun a web of political-underworld
intrigue stretching from smoke
filled rooms to courthouse cham
berS.
/. Daniel Neustein, the former
Tammany leader, said he held the
post from 1941 until 1945 when he
was told: "The boss didn't want
: me any more" He said "the boss"
reference presumably was to Cos
tello.
Neustein also asserted it was
"almost common knowledge in
those days that nominations for the
(state) Supreme Court had to be
paid for"
After the hearings by the New
York State Crime Commission were
adjourned for the weekend il was
announced last night that U. S.
Atty. Gen. James P. McGranery
had asked for transcript of testi-
money by Armand Chankalian,
administrative assistant to the US.
attorney here.
McGranery's action climaxed a
day of rapid-fire developments
highlighted, among other things, by
Chankalian's testimony that he
once interceded with Gov. Thomas
E. Dewey in an attempt to get a
restoration Of the voting privileges
of Thomas (Three-Finger Brown
Luchese.
Luchese, an ex-convict who BIOS
somed into a wealthy New York
garment manufacturer, was des-
cribed earlier by federal marco
tics agent as the successor to Co.'S
tello in the underworld hierarchy.
Costello now is serving an 1S-month
sentence in Atlanta's federal peni-
tentiary for contempt Of the U. S,

night quoted McGranery as asking
for the Chankalian transcipt ''foI

Neal was the next witness and
kept spectators in laughter as he
testified about $3.50, 900 in cash he
said his father gave him a years

on this money the past 10 years
and that by last February it had
