Such an impartial appeals
board would be composed OF
distinguished citizens from out
side the Government.
Another proposal under con-
sideration would be to separate
cases involving disloyalty, SUBJ
version and national security
factors from cases involving
character defects. This system
is being used successfully by the
Air Force Department. which
uses the civil service SUITABLE
ity" firing procedure in all cases
not connected directly with dis
loyalty or subversion.
The Air Force Department has
found that this has greatly i'm
proved employe morale by re-
moving the stigma of a security
risk" in ordinary cases not in
volved directly with national
security. Such instances as
habitual drinking, Indebtedness,
nervous ailments and moral
charges are handled under regu-
lar civil service firing procedures
if they are not directly related
to subversion.
Federal employe unions, which
have always strongly supported
all programs designed to keep
Communists and other subver-
sives out of Government, are
critical of the loyalty security
program.
The National Federation of
Federal Employees deplored the
fact that the program has be-
come a partisan political issue.
Under the present program all
persons who leave the service. for
whatever cause, are suspect" the
NFFE said. "All who leave the
service are open to smear
and innuendo."
Local Al of the American Fed
Grafton of Government Employees,
in it's current publication, de-
clares: Government employees
have mixed feelings about Sc
curity. One reaction, however, is
common to the great majority.

Brennan Era Opens
AT Notre Dame as
Spring Drills Start
BY the Associated Press

SOUTH BEND, Ind, April 2.
The Terry Brennan era in
Notre Dame football will be
ushered in today as the 25-year-
old successor to Head Coach
Frank Leahy opens the first of
20 spring workouts.
Brennan has II lettermen
from Leahy's unbeaten, but
once-tied, 1853 team. This group
is headed by Co-Captains Dan
Shannon and Paul Matz, ends
who played for Brennan on his
Mount Carmel High champion
ship teams in Chicago a few
years ago.
Other returning monogram
winners are Quarterbacks Ralph
Guglielmi, Tom Carey and Don
Schaefer: Halfbacks Joe Heap,
Dick Fitzgerald and Dick KEEL
Ter; Ends Walt Cabral and Don
George; Guards Ray Lemek,
Jack Lee and Pat Bisceglia;
Tackles Wayne Edmonds. Sam
Palumbo and Frank Varrichione,
and Center Dick Szymanski.
Brennan's main job will be to
replace the entire right side of
the starting line, a unit wiped
out by graduation, in addition to
Fullback Neil Worden and Half
back Johnny Lattner, winner OF
the Heisman and Maxwell Tro-
phies.
Assistant Coaches John Druze
and Bill Farley, only holdovers
from the Leahy regime and new
corners George Dickson, Bill
Bischer, Francis Curran and
Frank Johnston will aid Bren-
nan in putting the big squad
through 20 workouts in 36-day
period.
The drills will be dropped for
the April 1926 Easter vacation
period. They will be climaxed
May Is with the annual game
against the Old Timers.
Notre Dame, entering its seth
year of football, will open the
1854 schedule of 10 games at
home September Is. against
Texas: Then come Purdue,
Pittsburgh, Michigan State,

Senators Will Refund
Tax 10 Customers
Taking the Trouble

The Washington Baseball
Club will refund the 10 per cent
extra tax paid for tickets for
this seasons games-if any one
wants to go to the trouble of
collecting. A.
The consensus is that not
many people will. The refund
on box seat ticket at $3.50. for
example, is about 81 cents.
Most clubs are expected to do
just as Washington is doing to
adjust to the new excise tax law
the President signed Wednesday.
The new law. among other
things, cuts the tax on baseball
games from 20 per cent to 10
per cent. But as one official of
the Internal Revenue put it.:
Whether the club wants to pay
ticketholders back the money is
the clubs business.
That's understandable, mas
much as the refunds would come
out of the Governments money
box and not that of the club.
The refund will apply only
to tickets purchased prior to the
signing of the new law. The
Washington club will pocket the
savings" resulting from the law
from now on. Most clubs are
expected to follow suit.

Andrade Depending
On Edge in Weight
Against Bassetf

An able veteran meets an up
and-coming youngster in tomor-
row nights main bout at Uline
Arena.
The veteran is Percy Bassett
Of Philadelphia, holder of the
interim featherweight cham
pionship. while the youngster is
Cisco Andrade, promising
lightweight from Los Angeles
who brings a record of 20 vic
tories and one draw into his first
appearance in the East.
This will be the regular Sat-
urday night television fight,
slated over the ABC network,
with Washington BACKED out.
Gabe Menendez is the promoter.
The fight will be Bassett's
second in Washington since
winning the interim feather
weight title from Ray Famechon
of France a little over a year
ago. Last April he lost to Dave
Gallardo, who like Andrade, is a
lightweight.
Bassett's overall record is IS
victories, 80 by knockouts, 8
losses and one draw. In his most
recent fight he knocked out Mo-
hamed Chickaoui, the current
French featherweight champion,
in the third round.
Andrade Is counting on his
weight advantage to help him
against the more experienced
Bassett. although the Cali
fornian does have more expert
ence than his 81 pro fights in
dictate. He had a total of 1873
amateur battles before turning
pro about Is months ago.
Andrade has had one fight on
television, winning over Hoacine
Khalfi, Algerian lightweight, two
weeks ago in Toledo. The two
fighters punched steadily without
a clinch the whole 10 rounds, a
showing that induced Ray Arcel,
promoter of these Saturday night
TV bouts, to bring Andrade East
for more action.
Heading tomorrow nights sup
porting card is an eight-rounder
matching two young middle
weights, Tony Anthony of New
York and Andy Mayf1eld of
Miami Beach.
SiX-rounders are Joe Scott
against Charlie Slocum of Phila-
delphia, welterweights, and
Jimmy DeMurd of Syracuse
against Tommy Yates, feather
weights. The opening four
rounder pairs Hank Jones and
Calvin Price. The show opens
at $3.50 and the main event goes
on at 8.

they rejected it.
1--WE may not win the pen

ourselves battling it out for third.
With a break here and there,
we might do better"
Hammer Back at Short.
The best infielder on the club
is Hammer, a former all-star
Shortstop, who until Morgan
came to the club was forced to
play second base. Youthful Ted
Kazanski, the regular shortstop,
is Army-bound. That means
Hammer will soon be back at
short.
