Thirty-one Palmer High Schoo freshmen, sophomores, juniors

 first football practice session in

Practice sessions will be held every night after school, with the two upper classes beginning scrimmage at 2:30 pm. and the others at 3:30 pm. After three weeks of practice, Coach Norman Rousey hopes to arrange a prac- tice game with Anchorage or an Army team.
 Weather permitting, football practice will continue until late in October, allowing plenty of time for shift of emphasis to basketball before the first sched- uled game about November IS.
 More names are expected to be addd to the following list of train ees before the week is out: Jerry Hemmer Bob Harris, Paul Camp bell, John Brown, Oliver Brewer, Bob Smith, Jack McKechnie, Dick Geiwitz, Monty Larsh, Larry Me Allister, Joe Lentz, Blaine Rice, David Rogers, John Reed, Dan Wolf, Carl Burnett, Howard Els singer, Tim Miller, Carl Zoborak, Jimmy Hitchcock, Tom Davey, Dennis Buzby, Loren Sasseen, Carl Hendrickson, James Good man, Richard Hobson, Victor Klem, Adelard Beylund, Bill Cox, Gary Loyer, and Riley Curtis.

LARRY TROWBRIDGE WINS AGAIN

Again this year, Larry TroW- bridge wins first prize for the best All garden in the Valley Larry did not win easily, since there were several gardens which scored high. Running close sec ond, the prize was tied and awarded to the Sharp boys, Geor- ge and Larry. These three win ners are neighbors on Bailey Hill and members of the same All club. Could be that "keeping-up with ones neighbors'' was a factor in this case. This is Larry's third year raising a All garden; the Sharp boys first year. These three boys had many fine exhibits at the Fair. Mark Sandvik won third prize for his garden. Hon. orable mentions for their gardens go to Bobby Wimmer, Gene Din kel, Frank Delvin, Eddie Wilkes, and Adelard Beylund.

conoress Must Finish the Job

The Universal Military Training bill Just
reported by the House Armed Services Com
mittee is an essential companion piece to the
UNIT legislation which Congress passed last year.
Each act would be futile without the other, Tor
they are interdependent Unless Congress ap-
proves this supplementary legislation, UNIT Is
q dead duck.
The new bill does not commit Congress to
any new training plan or to any changes In the
plan adopted, in principle, at the previous ses-
sion. It merely lays down a set Of general rules
and regulations setting forth legal rights, dis
ciplinary measures, welfare safeguards and dis
ability and death benefits for the trainees The
code is substantially that recommended by the
National Security Training Commission, which
Congress created for that purpose.
In short, the corollary bill Is necessary TO
complete the legislative action which must be
taken before any training program can be
started. Still to be decided is the difficult ques-
tion Of when to put the plan in operation. once
Congress finishes It's part Of the job That dect-
sion can be made either by the President or
congress, under terms Of the act. The law also

Porticoes, North and South

The President misapprehends The Stars
attitude toward structural changes at the White
House and it seems advisable to set him straight
He told the reporters whom he was conducting
around the rebuilt Mansion on Wednesday that
he had been tempted to cut down the size OF
the north portico, which extends over the
entrance driveway. But the contractors opposed
it. Furthermore, it would have started another
balcony controversy" he said, and might have
induced hemorrhage by The Star.
The difference between taking something
of the White House and adding something to
the White House is the difference between night
and day. The Star did object when the President
hung balcony between the pillars Of the south
portico. For one thing, there was the fear that
the balcony was merely the beginning OF other
whimsical additions which various Presidents
have entertained. The fear remains.
But for almost 100 years The Star has been
waiting hopefully for an opportunity to applaud
some President who, instead Of adding something
to the White House, would take something on
the White House The applause, instead, has
had to 60 to the electorate, which from time to
time takes something out Of the White House.
Had Mr.. Truman gone ahead with his ideR OF
reducing the size of the north portico, which
from some angles appears as q tail about to wag
the dog, The Star would have given him three
long cheers.
