Scored by Mitchell
BY the Assoeioted Press

TAKOMA, Wash, May 16.-
Democratic National Chairman
Stephen A. Mitchell raked the
Eisenhower administration to-
night as a "give-away" govern
ment.
He predicted the Pacific North
west will lose $500 million or
more in production every year
as a result of Secretary Of the
Interior McKay's decision that
the Government was with draw
ing it's opposition to the Idaho
Power Co.'s application to build
a dam on the Snake River at
Oxbow. The Truman adminis-
tration had opposed this appli-
cation and had favored instead
the building of a multi-purpose
dam at Hells Canyon in Idaho.
Mr.. MITCHELL in a speech at
a Jefferson-Jackson Day dinner,
said:
Without the power from our
great dams, we could not have
built airplanes in the number
we needed in World War II, and
we could not have developed
atomic energy. You would not
have the industry, the payrolls
and the population you have
today"
The present administration.

fic Northwest short"

basketball team, no longer un-
der pressure with an unbeaten
mark, takes on Columbia here
tonight with hopes of starting
another winning streak after a
76-75 defeat at Princeton last
night. Two overtime periods
were needed for a decision.
A hook shot by Foster Cooper
and free throw by Mike Loprete
gave Princeton a three-point
margin at the start of the sec
ond extra period and that proved
sufficient.
In the final minutes, Ben
Carnevale, Navy coach, benched
his two scoring stars, Don Lange
and John Clune. Clune put in
a Jump shot Ia the closing sec
onds of the first overtime to tie
it at 64-64. The regulation time
ended at 58-58. after the Tigers
came up with two baskets in the
last 80 seconds.
In the beginning. it looked as
though Navy was going to have
its eighth straight victory. After
being held to a 1913 f1rst-quar-
ter tie. the Middies outscored
their rivals, 1911, to carry an
eight-point advantage at inter-
mission. But the Tigers chopped

The Southern Conference is
almost certain to approve bowl
participation by it's member
schools at its May meeting in
Greensboro, N. c., following the
approval of post-season contests
by the National Athletic Associa-
ton in it's annual meeting yester-
day at the Mayf1ower.
Neither Max harrington of
George Washington, president of
the Southern Conference, nor
Wallace Wade, commissioner,
definitely would commit himself,
but both left the impression that
the Southern Conference would
reverse it's stand on bowl games.
No action was taken at the De-
cember meeting of the conference
in Clemson, S. c., because the
II member schools were await
ing anticipated NCAA approval
Of bowl games by the Extra
Events Committee.
If the Southern Conference
approves bowl games and other
post-Season contests, it will be
a year late, in the opinion of
Coach Jim Tatum of Maryland.
Tatum still says that Maryland
would have gone unbeaten if it
had been playing Mississippi and
Alabama in the proper frame of
mind. But with Sugar, Orange
or Cotton Bowl appearance de-
MED, the Terps were not "up"
for either the Rebels or the
Crimson Tide.
The NCAA's approval of the
report of its Committee on Extra
Events was forecast long ago
by Tatum, who predicted bowl
games would be overwhelmingly
approved once the NCAA COM
mittee released its report.
However, the report carries
certain recommendations, with
limitations on bowl game ap-
pearances by one team, excessive
awards for the players, the num-
ber of complimentary tickets
given to squad members, expense
accounts and the sharing of
profits among conference schools.
It upholds the right of a player
to refuse to participate.

In rebuttal to those who claim
Notre Dame is after unrestricted
TV because of financial interests,
he pointed out that his school

more money than it gets from

Francis Murray, athletic direc-

One of the points by Notre

favor of unlimited television
yesterday was that football on

to the game, as some people
believe. The roar of the crowd,
