In reply to Mr.. Parkinson about the
Korean casualties, on May 29th, 1851,
Ia months ago, General Omar Brad
ley testified before Senate Committee
that our casualties in Korea were then
I41,000. The Press on that day gave
our casualties as $4,000. About seven
weeks ago the United Nations an
nounced that the Allied casualties in
the Korean War are $4,000; about 90
per cent of the Allied force are Ameri-
can boys. From the above 1 asserted and
am still assured that American cas-
ualties in the Korean Police Ac-
ton are above 100000. I seldom an

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

tamount of mower with the same loss of
l6o5, would cost GA times the cost OF
the 5O-miIe line. In other words, the
| cost increases as the square of the
distance This is true whether built
by the Government or anyone else
| These costs have to be incurred to save
prohibitive line loss. If the voltage in
any case is doubled, the size of the
cable can be reduced one half, and the
cost is reduced about one half also.
However, 220 900 volts is about the
| practical limit
| Now let us consider the Wheeling
] Contract for Canyon Ferry power. our
publication dated May 23rd carries a
| statement, to the effect that the charge
| for wheeling is a $4,000 annual gift
| from Uncle Sam" That would seem to
| imply that it costs nothing to render
| this service. Perhaps a few figures
| on the subject would be enlightening.
Let us assume that the Government
built the transmission line from Can
yon Ferry to Great Falls at cost of
$1,231,16S What would be the annual
cost to the Government as compared
to the Wheeling Contract? 1t would
look something like this:
Interest a go .....--- .-..-..... $S7 $4,000
Operation and Maintenance

Depreciation a. 1%o ---.----..--.--- lz,51z'OU
According to the 1850 Report of the
Montana State Board of Equalization,
the Montana Power Company pays taxes
to the counties of Cascade and Silver
Bow, on $1,231,163 of assessed valua-
ton the sum of $40,373 Since the Gov
eminent pays no taxes, the customers
have to make up the difference, so the
total cost of power to the customer
for its transmission from Canyon Ferry
to Great Falls, would be YS13S,S69 per
annum. Since the wheeling charge is
only $4,000, saving to the Govern
ment, or in other words to the people, |
is S93,S6 So, over a period of % years, |
it would cost the Government over
8, 600, 900 to own the line as compared |
to the 100000 to rent it. Lewis and |
Clark and Cascade counties would lose |
S8SS,000 in taxes during the period the |
naive conception that wheeling charges
are gift" can only be held by those
who are uniformed on the subject.
Now a point that occurs to me is
his. What would the Government do
With the power if it transmitted it to
treat Falls over its own lines? 1t
would still have to construct hundreds
# miles more of transmission lines
o serve its customers, at an additional
.ost of many millions of dollars, and
lave still greater line loss. The Pow

something to see-119 points in
three major games.
Eastern interest centers about
the Maryland-Navy game. Here
again we see two undefeated op-
ponents. Our choice is Maryland.
In what may be an upset to some,
we pick Army to defeat Pitts
burgh.
Villanova and hard running
Gene Filipski get the nod over
Boston College while Boston Uni
versity should edge William and
Mary. Ivy League encounters
favor Cornell over Yale, Penn
sylvania over Columbia and Dart
mouth over Rutgers.
In other Eastern games we fore
see Colgate beating Harvard, Holy
Cross outscorlng Brown and Penn
State beating Nebraska as the
Cornhuskers operate without
Bobby Reynolds.
Louisiana State Picked.
Down South, the Louisiana
State-Georgia game is a key one
and we favor Louisiana State in a
close contest. Duke should roll
over North Carolina State, Geor-
gia Tech gets our vote over Au-
burn, and Mississippi State is
given a slight edge over Ken
lucky.
North Carolina resumes play
and should beat Wake Forest.
Tennessee gets the nod over Ala
bama. and we like Mississippi over
Tulane, Florida over Vanderbilt
and Miami over Richmond.
Rice and Southern Methodist
occupy the Texas spotlight snd
we pick Rice in a high-scoring
contest. Texas Christian gets cur
vote over Texas A&M and Texas
looks like the winner over Arkan-
saS. Non-conference games FORE
see Baylor beating Texas Tech.
Missouri downing Oklahom AIM,
Tulsa trimming Kansas State
and Colorado beating Iowa State.

Sooners Choice Over Kunsus
Leohy Picks 7erps Over Navy,
Army to Beat Pitt, LSU to Win

| Out West UCLA is again in the
key game of the day and once
again we are with Red Sanders
team as we pick it to beat STAN
ford. Big coastal guns are IA
vored as California downs Santa
Clara and Southern California
beats Oregon State. A close game
give the edge to Washington over
Oregon and We like Denver over
Utah.
Midwestern schedules feature
the Big Ten meetings between
Illinois and Minnesota, Michigan
and Northwestern and Wisconsin
and Iowa. We pick Illinois, Mich
igan and Wisconsin to win. Michi-
gan State gets the vote over Syra-
cuse and we like Ohio State over
Washington State. Indiana is
our choice over Temple and we
prefer the chances of Detroit over
Drake and Marquette over Ari-
Zona.
We leave South Bend early to-
morrow for a brief train ride to
Lafayette. Ind, where we meet
the Purdue Boilermakers. Ever
since his coming to Purdue, Stu
Holcomb has given us more trou-
BILE than any other coach we have
met.
Since the bowl-bound Boiler
makers are undefeated to date
we know tomorrow will be no ex-
ception. Our main concern and
sincere hope is that our team plays
for 60 minutes as it has in the
second halves of our last two
games. 1t will have to in order
to stay in contention.

Terps' Victory Streak Includes
WINNING 80 of Their Last 81

Somewhat overlooked in Mary
lands 16-game winning streak is
the fact that the Terps have won
80 of their last "a games in three
complete seasons of 1949-50-51,
two bowl appearances and four
games this season.
Maryland will be shooting for
its 18th consecutive triumph
against Navy tomorrow, a winning
streak topped only by Michigan
State. And, of course, Maryland
was the last team to beat Michi-
gan State, 34-7. in 1850.
Maryland ended its 1948 season
on a dismal note, losing to North
Carolina, Vanderbilt and West
Virginia. In 1949 the Terps lost
only to Michigan State CAD and
beat Missouri in the Gator Bowl
In 1850 the Terps were beaten by
North Carolina State and tied by
North Carolina. Last year they
won nine, plus the Sugar Bowl.
Maryland is unbeaten in 10
games.
NOTES.-The theme for every
body attending the game tomor-
row is leave early" regardless
'of where you live. That will not
be the case after the game, be-
cause with football and race
traffic meeting, dinners will be
late.
The $500 midshipmen who will
into Byrd Stadium start
ing at 12:45 will outnumber Mary
lands Air Force ROTC unit, but
not by many, as Maryland has the
largest unit of its kind, 3,100. in
the Nation. Station WWDC,
which has been carrying the Navy
games, received .ate permission
to broadcast and will carry the
game with Bob Wolff and Chuck
Thompson reporting it. That is
in addition to the WNBW tele-
cast and the WMAL broadcast.
People are still asking about
the rumor that Virginia would
cancel the November 8 game with
North Carolina because of the
polio scare at Chapel Hill and
play Maryland, which has an open
date that day. That strictly was
a rumor.

GWU Defensive Shifts
Place Prach at Tackle,
Korcheck at Ha|fback
By George Huber

Coach Bo Sherman of George
Washington football team has
made several shifts in his defen-
Sive platoon as the Colonials head
for Blacksburg. Va, and tomorrow
afternoons game against Vir-
ginia Tech.
One of the defensive shifts was
imperative. necessitated by the
absence of Tackle Tom FlyZik.
The 225-pound stalwart of the
defensive line couldn't snap back
from knee injury I received
against Virginia last week and
will be out not only this week but
also possibly next week as we'll.
In Flyzik's place will go Johnny
Prach, a 210-pound utility man
who already has seen action this
year as center and tackle on
offense and end on defense.
Donofrio Crashes Lineup.
Other changes in the defense
put Steve Korcheck, generally .
linebacker. at one of the halfback
posts, with the other going to
Lou Donofrio. a freshman end.
Frank Continetti. 220-pound
guard, is being dropped back to
linebacker.
These shifts, Coach Sherman
hopes. will tighten up the pass
defense which was infiltrated fire.
quently by Virginia in last weeks
500 setback.
The offense should be at full
strength tomorrow with both
Halfback Len Ciemniecki and
Fullback Norb DanZ recovered
from the leg hurts that hampered
them this week.
COlOnials Are Favored.
The Colonials left by train this
morning, and will spend the night
at Roanoke. They will make the
last 20 miles of the trip to Blacks
burg tomorrow by bus. Even
though they were whipped
rather soundly last week, the
Colonials are rated as slight
favorites this week. VPI also fell
before Virginia by a one sided
score the week before, 42-0, and
last week was beaten by Ala
bama, $50.
Except for Quarterback john
ny Dean, the Gobblers report
themselves in good physical trim.
Dean has a banged-up nose and
will wear a special mask tomor-
row. If he isn't able to go all
the way, the Gobblers are pre-
pared with a good replacement
in Jackie Williams, the teams
ace punter.
Tomorrow is homecoming day
for VPI, with paradeS. beauty
queens and other activities on a
day-long schedule. The game
starts at 2::30 pm.
