James E. Pixlee, former foot
ball coach and athletic director
at George Washington Univer-
sity, was busy packing today
preparatory to pulling stakes in
a city on which he's left his
mark.
During the 1930s Pixlee was
a central figure in a colorful
period of the Districts collegiate
football history. His teams from
1880 through 1887 took on such
schools as Alabama, Tennessee
Rice, Vanderbilt, Arkansas, Tu-
lane, Mississippi and Louisiana
State, with the Colonials almost
always in the role of fighting
underdogS. No matter what the
outcome, any CIV game usually
was a show.
In 1929, When Pixlee took over
at CIV after compiling a rather
spectacular record as all-sports
coach at Westminster College in
Missouri, the home football at
tendance for CIV was 1900. In
1885 it hit 10000 and CIV was
14th in the Nation in that re-
Spect.
Many were the great moments
that might be recalled by the
men who played football under
PiXlee. Yet, when many OF
these same men gathered at a
dinner at the Touchdown Club
last night to honor their old
coach, not one speaker even
mentioned an achievement or
the gridiron.
Left CIV in 1888.
All had, it appeared. a more
important subject-Jim PiXlee
the man with ready guiding
hand for others. And express
sions of esteem came, too, from
District Judge James r. Kirk
land, who introduced Pixlee tC
many of his friends here: Chief
Judge Leonard P. Walsh OF
Municipal Court who was Pix
lees line coach, and Max Far
rington, CIV athletic director
whom Pixlee brought up
Judge Walsh presided at the
dinner.
Pixlee left CIV in 1888 when
the school de-emphasized foot
ball and since has been engaged
in Government work. He will

istration, a rehabilitation job

At the top of the backswing
(A) a line extended from the
end of my grip through my left
arm would extend straight to
the ball. This means that my
swing is neither too upright nor
too fiat. If this line would ex-
tend beyond the ball, my swing
would be too fiat. If extended
short of the ball my swing would
be too upright. My right knee
is still flexed as at address and
my left heel has come off the

Boros Seeks Advice
After Poor Start in

BY the Assoeioted Press

WETHERSFIELD, Conn, Aug.
28.-Playing before home folks
who knew him well before he
became top-fiighter in pro
golf, Connecticut's Julius Boros
hopes they'll tell him what's
wrong with his game.

Maybe it's because I can't get
excited any more. Maybe you
have to be on edge to win"
A year ago. the burly Boros
came here as the National Open
and "World" champ. an assured
golfer riding the crest.
Discouraged This Season.
This year, he returned some
what discouraged. He hasn't
won anything so far in 1853, nor
even been a potent threat.
What was the National Open
title worth to him, beyond the
prize money that went with it?
About $25, 5000" Boros smiles.
II could have hustled more, and
made more money, but I'm only
33 years old. young, and for
guy who has neen playing as a
pro for only three years. that's
not bad"
Boros still makes the hard
shots look easy, and is a great
bunker player. He hits a low
ball, and wastes no time. But,
to save his life, he can't regain
his putting touch.
Making Last Try.
If he doesn't break loose with
a sub-par performance today.
he's going to pack up and spend
the rest of the week with his

Take note that my right elbow
is pointing down. not out.
Starting the club with turn
ing of the hips to the left you
will be able to hit from the in
side out. If the shoulders or
hands initiated the movement
from the top of the backswing
you would be forced to hit from
the outside which means trouble.
In illustration (B) my hips are
still leading the shoulder turn.
Both arms and hands are still
in the same relative positions
they were at the top of the

been obtained Just by the turn

KWangtung Provinces have one or
more elaborate houses which have
been built by the funds of overseas
Chinese who dream of some day
returning to China to retire in peace
in the land of their ancestors.
Many of the overseas Chinese
first were lukewarm in their support
Of the Chinese Communists. Others
did not support the Reds at ALL
Now all have had their fill of the
Reds, however, after watching
the events of the last three
years. They may not support the
Nationalist government because of
its past corruption, but they are out
spoken concerning the treatment
that their relatives are receiving
from the Communists. Any move
against the Red regime, then, is
assured of strong financial backing
from the overseas Chinese.
The most powerful of all the weap-
ons of the Southern Chinese farmers
and businessmen. however, are the
secret societies. These are interna-
= tional in scope and have more real
influence on Chinese life than any
government, including the Reds.
Every influential Chinese belongs to
one of these societies and even the
tiny villages have at least one men,
ber. There are many members
among the outward Communist sup
porters and many more in the
Communist armies.
Some of these societies have ro-
mantle names such as the Red Eye
brows, the Yellow Turbans, the
Society Of Elder Brothers and the
Society of Heaven and Earth.

Malenkov can be considered as Just
an upstart. The people know little
about Malenkov as person, about
his past, his services to his country
or to the revolution-if any. It
would seem that the first and most
important task of the Soviet press
would be to popularize the new
Premier, to show the imposing figure
Of Stains heir in the very best
light. =.
But now, looking over the Soviet
papers for two weeks in March, you
can't believe your own eyes. Be-
ginning with March II, with the
exception of March Is (Which gives
an account of the session of the
Supreme Soviet, and shows pic
ture of the Presidium in generaD I,
Malenkov has practically disap-
peared from the pages of the press.
1T is useless to search these pages
for a biography of Malenkov. for
something about his family, for a
description of past heroic deeds, for
excerpts from his works.
mo kolkhozes, factories or cities
have been renamed in his honor.
Strangely missing are greetings to
the beloved leader Malenkov from
the party organizations, the unions,
clubs or kolkhozeS. No one thanks
Malenkov personally for a happy
life. Worse still, quotations from the
speeches of Comrade Malenkov
have disappeared from the edito-
rials, and his name is not even
mentioned in the lengthy articles
by the party dignitaries. Formerly,
such articles repeated the name of
Stain dozens of times. Even COM
muniqueS from the Council of Min
listers were printed without the
signature Of its chairman.
Things have come to such a pass
that in some editions of Pravda-
for instance those of March 13 and
23-the name of Malenkov isn't
mentioned at all, and during the
other days of the two-week period,
only in passing once or twice."
Ienotiev Arrest
The Voice seized on the an
nounced arrest of Minister of State
Security Ignatiev to emphasize the
implications for Malenkov in this
move:
''This Ignatiev as recently as last
month was made a member of the
f1ve-man secretariat of the Central
Committee of the Communist Party.
He is presumed to be Malenkov
man. And big fact begins to loom
up in the fog: Malenkov may not
have been able to protect him"
From the beginning the Voice has
treated the whole peace offensive
with skepticiSm. It has pointed out
to European satellites and the So
Wet people. for instance, that none
of the peace moves has been incon-
siStent with the Moscow aim of
breaking up moves toward West
European unity. On the other hand,
the Voice is giving the widest pos
sible circulation to President Eisen-
hoWer'S peace counteroffenSive,
launched last week.
On balance, it would seem that
the Voice is deftly steering middle
course. It is avoiding abject obei-
sance to Senator Mccarthy on the
one hand and refusing to accept at
face value the springtime friendli-
ness Of the Kremlin on the other.

light metals. rice, vegetable oil,
meat, oil seeds. tobacco, tea, fruit,
wool, jute, raw silk, silk textiles,
leather and other goods. Almost all
of these items will have to come
out of South China. No wheat or
corn, grown in North China. has
been mentioned for export.
The Southern Chinese farmer has
already been badly wounded, and
he will be hurt further when the
impact of these treaties is felt. But
he is far from defenseless.
Two Influences
Two of the most powerful influ-
ences in Chinese affairs-more pow
erful than either the Communist or
Nationalist governments-are likely
to appear in his defense before long.
These are the overseas Chinese and
the international secret societies in
South China.
It is little known in the United
States how potent an influence Is
welded by the overseas Chinese in
Burma, Malaga, Thailand, Singa-
pore, Indonesia. the Philippines, the
United States. the West Indies and
South America. These people are
highly organized and enormously
wealthy.
Most Of the overseas Chinese orig
mated in the coastal provinces of
South China - Chekiang, Fukien
and Kwangtung-and in the prov
inces bordering on Southeast Asia
Kwangsi, Kweichow and Yunnan.
The ties of the overseas Chinese
with their mother country are very
close. When the support these peo-
pie were sending their relatives was
interrupted by the Japanese during
World War II, there was starving in
many villages and dire poverty for
thousands of Southern Chinese.

bread prices in Moscow, prices of
bread were doubling in Poland"
Evidence Of Porositism
The Sino-Soviet trade pact, in
which the Chinese promised food
and raw materials for heavy indus
trial goods, gave the Voice an oppor-
tunity to rework an old theme, that
the Soviet Union preys on its sat-
elites:
"The Chinese Communist regime
has just accomplished two typical
featS of satellite craftsmanship.
First, it has concluded a deal
whereby the hungry Chinese will
ship a lot of food to the Soviet
Union. Second, it has so far sue
ceeded in keeping the matter a
secret from the Chinese people,"
AS reported last week, the Voice
Is bearing down heavily on the the
atrical gimmick known as the
"switcheroo" in the doctors plot,
especially in programs beamed at
the satellites:
"Can there now be any doubt that
the Prague trial of Rudolf Slansky
and his associates was equally in
fected with the Hitlerite style of
anti-Semitism? Were the same
'inadmissible means used to extort
confessions from LaSzlo Rajk in
Hungary 80? Will Cardinal Mind
Szenty now be released from his pris-
on cell in Hungary or the American
newspaperman William Oats from
his dungeon in Prague?
Can any one now doubt that the
purported confessions Of two Amer
ican prisoners in North Korea were
either invented or extorted - in
Pravda'S own words-'by methods
of investigation which are inadmis-
sible and most strictly forbidden?'"
Voice on MoIenkov
Here is sample Voice script dis
cussing the Soviet press sudden
disinterest in Georgi Malenkov:
Something very strange is hap
pening to the Soviet newspapers.

In the average Russians mind.
In dramatizationS, in newscasts,
in commentaries and in other pro-
grams the Voice has been making
these points:
l. The new Kremlin leaders aren't
giving the people much more of a
break on their standard of living
than Stain did.
2. The Soviet press strange dis
interest in Malenkov betrayS the
basic insecurity Of Soviet leadership,
and probably signals new phase in
the struggle for power which can
bring nothing but grief for the
people
3. While the Kremlin power strug-
gle RACES, the satellite countries are
in an impossible position-they don't
know which horse to back.
4. The Kremlin'S admission that
1t framed the Is doctors convicted
of numbering high Soviet officials
merely confirms what the Voice has
been telling people behind the Iron
Curtain all along-that the purges
and espionage trials, the germ war
fare charges. indeed most of the
Red propaganda, have been a pack
of lies
S. If satellite aping of Kremlin
techniques is carried to it's legal
conclusion there should be a review
of all the satellites phony trials,
those falsely accused who are still
alive should be released, and false
accusers should be jailed instead.
The special attention to the sat-
elites may reflect the influence Of
the new Secretary of State, John
Foster Dulles, who has repeatedly
called for a more positive attitude
toward the people behind the Iron
Curtain.
A SompIe Script
Here is sample Of Voice commen-
tary to the satellites on the recently
announced price cuts for Soviet
Russia:
I'VE are wondering about the
effect of the price cuts on the people
of the satellite countries. We Won
der how they feel when they are
told that prices in the Soviet Union
are being reduced while prices in
their own countries are zooming up

enforced shortages. Radio Moscow
claims Soviet living standards are

elites.

Secret Societies China Revolt

The rise or fall of the Chinese
Communist peoples revolution may
rest squarely on the weary shoulders
of the small farmers and trades peo-
pie of South China, below the
Yangtze River. There the world
may see, before long, a revolt against
a revolution.
For over a century the revolts
of the Chinese against the imperial
rule of the Manchus derived most of
their impetus from the Southern
Chinese. And it was in this section
that Chang Kai-shek received his
greatest support when he ousted the
Russian advisers from his govern
ment and later started Mao Tse-
tung, Chou En-1ai, and company on
their famous 'long march" to
Yenan.
Daily there are reports of thou
sands of Chinese Communist SOL
dierS Can estimated SOC, 0,00O) detailed
to police duty in South China. There
is also peasant unrest against taxes,
mass executions, and an obvious
change in sentiment toward the
Communist regime. There are un-
mistakable signs that all is not we'll
with the Communists in South
China.
When the Communist armies
swept across China, the appeal of
their government to the farmer was
based on lower taxes and "agrarian
reform" This appeal bore fruit on
the wide plains of North China,
where there were large landholdingS
by individuals or families. In the
south, however, because of the hilly
and mountainous character of the
land and the difficulty of commune
cation, there were relatively few
large land holdings.
No Tex Cuts
The appeal which had the most
effect in the South was the lowering
of taxes. But instead of lowering
the taxes. the Communists have
raised them above the Nationalist
level. They have exacted from the
farmer exorbitant payments in kind.
In some areas he has been forced
to turn his entire output over to
the government, receiving in return
barely enough to eat.
Worse is soon to come. The Chi
nese Communist government has
recently concluded a treaty with
Ceylon calling for the purchase of
Ceylonese rubber to be paid for with
Chinese rice. Almost all of the rice
in China is grown in the semitrop-
ical and tropical climates of South
China. This is the first time in
history that China has committed
herself to export rice. AS a matter
of fact, almost one-third of all the
rice consumed in China has, here
tofore, been imported from Burma
and Thailand.
To get enough to export, more
rice must be gouged from the South
ern Chinese farmer. More rice, in
cidentally, than he has been able
to produce so far.
The recent Sino-Soviet pact an
nounced from Moscow shows the
same kind of disregard for South
China's own needs. Machinery from
Russia to expand heavy industry
will benefit North China, where the
heavy industry is. South China
again will have to hold up Mao
Tse-tung'S end Of the bargain. Red

against the Manchus. Through the
efforts of these three vengeful
monks, the Society of Heaven and

founded. It's mission was to over

the support of this society and
