SANTA CLARA, Calf. Dec. 30.
The University of Santa Clara,
once a national football power,
has quit intercollegiate football
because it costs too much.
Officials of the Jesuit school.
last of the Pacific Coasts Catholic
colleges to succumb to the f1nan-
cial strain, said the school lost
about $4,000 this season on the
sport and $4,000 in 1851.
Santa Clara's president, the
Rev. Herman j. Hauck, S.J.. said
today the move was made regret
fully Gin difference to the general
economic welfare of the univer-
sity."
The Broncos had scheduled
eight games for 1858, including
Stanford. Texas, Rice. California,
Miami, Idaho, San Jose State and
College of the Pacific.
Santa Claras head coach. Dick
Gallagher, had resigned last
month to rejoin the professional
Cleveland Browns as scout. Three
assistant coaches now lose jobs.
The university has fielded foot
ball teams since 1902, except in
World Wars I and II. The
Broncos went to the Sugar Bowl
in 1887 and '38, beating Louisiana
State each time, and upset Ken
lucky, 21-13. in the Orange Bowl
in 1850.

Washington'S most popular bowl
ing tournament-the Bowlers' Full
Handicap-will be held from jan
uary 5 through February l. Final
plans for the month-long COM
petition we're announced today by
Walter Waddington, president of
the Metropolitan Washington
Duckpin Operators Association,
which sponsors the annual event
dedicated to the BoWlers' Victory
Legion.
Although more bowlers take part
in the tournament than all other
events combined, it produces no
profit for the operators. This is
because only league scores are
counted. The bowler posts a 81
entry fee before shooting his
league games and the dollar is
split equally between the prize
fund and the Bowlers' Victory
Legion.
The tournament provides equal
opportunity for all, with full ham
dicaps based on a scratch Of 1913
for men and 118 for women. with
separate prize lists. Every league
bowelr at member plants of the
operators association, plus the
Government Printing Office,
YMCA and Almas Temple. is en-
titled to enter each time he rolls
a league set.
The Washington mems and
women's city tenpin associations
have affiliated with the operators
in promotion of the tournament
and will have a division of their
own. presided over by Matt
Bennie.
A. L. Ebersole, national direc-
tor of the BVL, again is the tour
nament chairman. In eight years
the event has produced $42.195
for the BVL. which was awarded
the Veterans Administration
Certificate of Appreciation this
year for its work in Frightening
the lives of hospitalized veterans.

students. There will be no lights
for night football. Night football
would bring out parents and in
crease interest, not to mention an
increase in funds that would be
made available for use by the
schools.
Some day, it is hoped, the con-
f1ict in Korea will end. When it
does, current bans on recreational
construction will be lifted and
hard-to-get materials will no
longer be hard to get.
However, the Korean conflict
isn't the only thing holding back
erection of lights at a high school
stadium. Plans call for building
ia stadium at Coolidge before
lights are considered. The stadium
lis expected to be put up within
two years, but current plans don't
call for lights.
Then, there is the matter of
racial segregation, which has been
dumped into the lap of the Su-
preme Court justices. A ruling
either banning segregation in the
schools or allowing it to continue
will be rendered by the Court in
1883.
The year 1852 has been a good
one for the District schools, the
matters above Notwithstanding.
Were better off than we've
ever been in the past" says Hardy
Pearce. director of athletics for
the Division I schools. "Our teams
are well equipped now. I don't
know what we would have done
had it not been for that $65,000.
Congress has appropriated that
sum for use by all the District
schools for athletics. It's an an
nual appropriation, first voted
last year.
/ Before then the schools didn't
know where their next dime was
coming from. Like the football
coach who told a reporter:
I'm going to cut my squad to
38 players.
"Why?" the reporter asked. DO

AN EXAMPLE IN COOPERATION

The complete cooperation of the British Govern ment and the U S. Air Force in England is example of peace-time integration never before achieved by two first rate military powers.
 In 1948, the first group of United States bombers was sent to England for period of thirty days The stated purpose of that mission training, which is still the ostensibe reason for the considerable Air Force complement in England. That thirty days was extended to ninety days then extended indefinitely.
 US. Air Force groups were rotated in and out of England, coming one or two at time, and today the United States has a complete Air Force, including a fighter wing and three bomber wings, in England.
 The arrangement between England and the United States concerning these forces is unique one, No treaty has been concluded and lease has been signed. The Americans occupy British bases but are solely under the Operational control of the United States Air Force.
 The British Government attached no condition to their occupation and the RAF has turned six of its best bases and two large depots to the United States Air Force free of rent In addition everything existing those bases when the Americans arrived given to our Air Force without charge.

Nearly Hundred Delegates Attend The Democratic
 Convention at Anchorage

The Democratic party is largely responsible for "our great degree of prosperity, never Def for e achieved by any nation," Victor C. Rivers, temporary chairman, told delegates to the territorial Democratic session, in his well come address at Anchorage.
 He declared that reports of sub- Versive activities in high govern ment places have been greatly exaggerated by the press" and the Republicans "have made great stock of them."
 Nearly a hundred delegates from all over the territory are attend ing the convention at the YMCA, first to be held in four years.
 Main business of the three-day session will be the election of six delegates to the national conven- ton. One delegate and two alter mates will be named from the sec ond and fourth divisions, and two delegates and one alternate from the first and third.
 In his address Rivers declared that he is confident of a Demo- cratic victory throughout the na- ton, and called on Alaskans to set an example to the States in this respect.
 Other business concerned the appointment of a credentials com- mittee: w. w. Knight from tn e first division; Howard Lyng, sec on d; M P. Smith, third; and Frank Barr, fourth. Rivers is a fifth member because of his sta tus as a member of the central committee.
 Rivers is acting as temporary chairman of the convention pend ing the election of a new leader.
 William Bittner was named head of the steering committee, with Wendell Kay and Robert McFar- land as members.
