Warnings that "Nazi beliefs

New Nazis," an important outline
of existing conditions prepared
by the Anglo-Jewish Association,
of London, and published by the

Objective in its views, giving
credit to ight-thinking people
when such credit is due, this
study nevertheless shows the
danger of recurring anti-Semit-
ism.
''The evidence available" the
survey states, "leads one to the
reluctant conclusion that though
a great deal of excellent work is
done by the leaders of democratic
parties, the Churches, and other
organizations, the disease (of
anti-Semitism) implanted in the
German people under Hitler's
tutelage has gone far and deep"
Asserting that "the time for &C
ton is now" the study declares
that if is not unreasonable to de-
mand that when the time comes
to select the leaders of any new
German army the political record
and affiliations of any German
ex-officers should be as closely

nearly nine months since the last

This game is picked to lead the
pack because Southern California
is rated high on the West Coast
and Washington State is picked as

California would be highly ia

COLUMBIA, Mo-. Sept. 19.-
Maryland, opening it's first foot
ball season with the ranking of a
top national power, is rated a pro-
hibitive favorite to do it up proper
against the University of Mis-
souri, tomorrow. Latest quotations
from Kansas City make the Sugar
Bowl champs 27-point favorites,
although dogged Mizzou followers
will disagree on the point spread
as long as the track remains fast.
Missouri admits to a light line
and a lack of defensive strength,
but the sentiment here is that if
the field is dry Don Faurot's Tigers
will give the No. 1-2 team of the
Nation a hard battle. Even the
cautious Faurot says: "We've got
better running backs than we
had last year and, throwing a dry
ball. our quarterback may worry
Maryland"
If the Terrapins win, as ex-
pected, they will chalk up their
18th in a row and extend to 16
games a string in which they were
unbeaten. Since a TT tie with
North Carolina in 1850, the Old
Liners haven't lost.
