IF there is some way to con-
vince the citizen that this (the

enough time on the afternoon plan

New Pep Squad
BY Shirley Trudeav

The Pep Squad, formerly called
the Boosters, has reorganized and
made few new rules and regula-

number of girls have been limited
to 80. A new constitution, drawn
up by the committee Katherine
Boaz, Ray Wrinkle, Deanna Archer,

read and adopted by the squad and
the new name adopted at the same
time.
New officers for the new Pep

ten cents are collected weekly in
stead Of fifty cents monthly, All the
girls are required TO wear red and
white to the games and to be pres
ent at all games. A member who
fails to attend two successive
meetings or games is dropped.
With all these improvements, the
Squad &C. under way with their
program of entertaining the teams.
A party was given for the basket
ball teams after the Miami game.
The boys from our team and the
visiting teams came. Sandwiches,
cookies, sodas. and all the trim
mings were there for everyone TO
enjoy. Everybody danced and had
gotl time. After the Fl. Pierce
game the dance at the NOES was
called off, so the Pep Squad and
teams gathered at June Yates
home for another enjoyable even
| ing.
Also, quite few members can
be seen flashing their newly arriy-
ed Squad pins. Buttons have been
ordered SO that members can be
recognized at games. For each
game a committee is appointed tc
welcome the visiting teams and in
troduce them to school members.

THE
COMMUNIST
PERIL
By William 1. RYAN

VIENNA R-Behind every open
communist Party in Europe is a
hidden inner organization with
strings leading to Moscow. The
Cominform co-ordinates the over
all drive to dominate Western Eu-
rope. One of the COminform'
principal helpers is the World
Federation Of Trade Unions, work
ing to coordinate the work of
front organizations.
The WITH, with headquarters in
Vienna, serves as transmission
belt for the Cominform.
The WITH is housed in a build
ing within the Ringstrasse, the in
ternational section Of divided vi
emma. The building, at 3 Sailer-
staette, is also used by Soviet Of
ficials of the various industries the
U. S. S. r. has taken from Aus
tria in the Russian version of
Potsdam.
WITH is not registered with the
Austrian government, as it Ordi-
narily should be under Austrian
law. Its foreign officers have asked
the police for residence permits
and have been refused, on the
ground that the WITH is not
legal organization in Austria. This
ordinarily would mean the WITH
would have to clear out.
But the WITH has no intention
of getting out. Vienna is entirely
too valuable to it and to- its Com
munist bosses. Vienna is a West
ern city of great culture, city
respected all over the civilized
world. II makes an ideal point,
from the Communist view, for
launching various propaganda
drives and for cOsordinating Com.
Munist efforts.

Foreign officers of the WITH live

protection. Their building in the
Ring is leased from 'the Society
for the Promotion CT Cultural and
Economic Relations Between Aus
tria and the u. S. S. R." called
the Anstro-SOvfet Society for short.
The WITH was founded in l945,
when trade unions, netting that the
United Nations Charter provided
for an international organization
Of workers, sought to build such
an Organization. The American
CIO and the British Trade Unions
Congress (TUC) were charter
members. The American Fedora.

which included Soviet trade. unions,
