Hamilton Will Coach
Pitt Against Middies
BY the Assoeiofed Press

PITTSBURGH, Oct. 13.-
Lowell RedD Dawson was in a
hospital for a checkup yester-
day and will not coach Pitt
against Navy Saturday, the Uni
versity of Pittsburgh announced.
Instead, Athletic Director Tom
Hamilton, former Navy coach.
will direct the Pitt forces.
Dawson was admitted to
Presbyterian Hospital. His all
ment was described as a heart
irregularity."
DR.. Richard H. Horn, assistant
dean of the Pitt School of
Medicine. said "I don't expect
him to be laid up much more
than a week"
Hamilton, an admiral in the
Naval Reserve, coached Navy
against Pitt the last time the
two teams met. That was 20
years ago and Pitt won, 31-7,
handing Navy its only defeat
that year.
Hamilton also formerly was
head coach at Pitt. He directed
the team in 1851, the season
before Dawson was hired to
three-year contract.

Combination Of Fans
Referees, Opponent
Upsetting TO Larsen
BY The Associated Press

. MEXICO CITY, Oct. 13.-The
18th Pan-American tennis tour
nament entered its next to last
day today with Art Larsen rec
onciled to his upset loss to Mex
ico's Mario Llamas.
The 22-year-old Mexican
champion defeated the Califor-
mia southpaw star. Ia, 1O-8,
81. 6-3. yesterday to become
the first from his country ever
to enter the finals of the tour
nament.
The refereeing and heckling
from the partisan crowd ap-
peared to upset Larsen and i'm
mediately after the match the
Californian admitted I'm
mighty unhappy" He also COM
planned about one decision. d
But later he cooled off and
tried to fend off reporters with
mo comment"
Listen" he said, "I'm salts
fled. There were a lot of close
calls but maybe the referee could
see better than I could and I
took it for granted they were
right. Let's let it lay.
IF complain, I'll be called a
poor sport and maybe get in
trouble with the officials back
home.
1--we been misquoted so many
times I don't want to open my
mouth. The crowd was a bit
noisy though"
Pressed for comment on ref
ereeing, Larsen turned the ques-
TONERS over to Hugh Stewart Of
Los Angeles.
II think the audience sort Of
pushed him at times" Stewart
said, "got on his nerves. But
Llamas played inspired ball and
the audience helped him as
much as it hurt Larsen.
Llamas. who scored another
upset in defeating Vic Seixas
Monday, merely said: IT am
most happy. It was one of my
best days"
The shot Larsen continued to
criticize was one that might
have won a set for him. A ball
rolled onto the court just as
Llamas pushed over what could
have been an easy return for
Larsen
But Larsen didn't attempt to
return it since in most cases the
point would have been nullified
and replayed. The referees,
however. allowed it to stand de-
spite heated protests from
Larsen.

Plans for Gym Hailed
As Alexandra Group
Asks Bigger Building

Alexandria temporarily has
stopped work on plans for q
2.800-seat municipal gymnasium
while possible construction of
one twice that size is considered.
The City Council last night
halted further planning on the
building now proposed in re-
sponse to a plea of the new Alex
andria Citizens COMMITTEES
which said it would be a waste
of money to build anything
smaller than q 1000 to 5000 seat
facility.
Members of the citizens COM
mittee were instructed to meet
with members Of q Council Gym
ilasium Committee and consider
ways Of financing the bigger
building. One method suggested
was creation Of an Alexandria
recreation authority to operate
the gymnasium like a business.
The building also is supposed to
be designed for auditorium use.

It was near twilight in the

"Eh?" we grunted, startled.

enough there was the great Iro-
quois, first American winner OF
the EPSON Derby in 1881, and
the only horse from this side OF
the pond to take it until Never

saw Domino winning his Futurity

'Take-charge Guy
Could Help Redskins
In Eagle Game

One thing wrong with the Red
skins, since everybody's talking
about 1t. Is that they have no
.take charge" guy. no individual
who can light a IRE under them
and get up steam when most
needed.
They could use such q man
Sunday when the lnbeaten
Philadelphia Eagles come here
seeking their. fourth straight
victory. They might even need
two. because this edition Of the
Eagles seems to be a real tough
bunch.
Ordinarily. the quarterback
would supply the spark to fire UP
the team. Whether you liked or
disliked Sammy Baugh's quarter
hacking-and the house is divid-
ed on that question-he gave the
team q mental lift any time he
came into the game. The play
ers got a feeling they were going
somewhere. somehow, with Sam
at the throttle and you could see
a difference in their work.
Bagarus Gave Fans Lift.
Anytime Steve Bagarus
pranced on the field the fans
got a feeling there would be
fireworks. Little Boy Blue had
an infectious enthusiasm that
swept the team. A youngster
like Billy Wells might have the
same effect with more expert
ence under his belt. because
after his touchdown run against
the Giants the gang knows he
can go all the way if given half
o chance.
On defense in other days it
was Ri Aldrich whooping it up
on the line. and Wilbur Moore
turning in a steady and usually
spectacular job in the backfield
who reused the Redskins. Those
old Redskins teams were scored
on, of course, but not as often
as the incumbents. and not as
easily. The opposition earned its
points in bloody noses, bruised
ribs and missing teeth!
Coach Joe Kuharich, who has
enough problems without adding
to his burden, recognizes the
need for such man. but he
can't make cheerleaders out of
Silent Gals. It's a role usually
assumed by a veteran, but there
aren't too many oldtimers left.
and they aren't playing regu-
larly.
Justice Could Take Charge.
AL Demao, who retired last
year. probably was the last of
the pep boys. AL could talk
like Dutch uncle in a pinch.
He knew when to argue with
the referee and when to let him
have his way. He knew when
q kid needed a pat on the back
and when a kick in the pants
was even more beneficial. But
there's nobody like al left.
Sunday, since it will be Charlie
Justice Day at Griffith Stadium,
would be a nice day for Choo
Choo to take charge. One of
those up and back, across, under
and over runs of his might in
spire his teammates to greater
efforts against the Eagles. It
would be nice way to celebrate
the day, anyhow, with hundreds |
of Tar Heel fans expected to
watch Choo Choo perform.
The Redskins might do better,
too. if aware of the fact that |
they'll have to make a fight |
to save their skins from the |
Eagles. Chuck Bednarik, Frank |
Kilroy, Mike Jarmoluk & Co.
make it mighty painful for a
guy who takes it easy against
them. It really isn't d safe
thing to do. -ATCHISON.

THANKSGIVING DAY

President Of the American Prog

THANKSGIVING is an extra
ordinary holiday. II is strictly
American. Nothing like it ever cx-
listed in any other part Of the
world.
1t is a national holiday, yet it
commentaries no battle. celebrates
no victory, honors no national

it is not Of any church, creed, sect
or denomination. 1t exemplifies.
however, the fundamental essence
of everything great. good and
wonderful about the American way
Of life.
THANKSGIVING DAY was first
set aside by the Pilgrim Fathers
as day Of fasting and prayerful
thanks for the bounty which was
theirs. II was designed to give
spiritual focus to the opportunities
and incentives that surround a
free people in a free land.
Here is the foundation Of

caused America to grow and de-
velop-and SO long as the Ameri-
can people keep the faith, they will
stay strong and free
1t was the spirit Of THANKS
GIVING that opened up a wilder
ness. 1t was the spark that won
our independence from foreign ty-
rants, that spanned a continent,
discovered, invented, developed, inn
proved, produced and distributed
a greater abundance amongst us
than all the rest of the peoples of
the earth have known.
All this was possible because we
recognized that God, not govern
ment, provides all things. Our
Founding Fathers made this very
clear in the Declaration of hide
pendence, in which they declared
that all men care endowed by their
Creator with certain unalienable
rights" and that ito secure these
rights, Governments are instituted
among Men. deriving their Just
powers from the consent of the
governed"

the whole American record dis
putes the claims of socialism, COM
munism and the welfare state. Both
tradition and the evidence of our
abundance testifies to the right
ness Of the American individual
enterprise system
The original colonies Of James,
town and Plymouth started with
all property held in common, but
there was no reason for THANKS
GIVING until after they had
abandoned the idea of communal
poverty Captain John Smith, who
engineered. the change from COM
munism to the individual enter
prise system, explained how it
worked in these words:
when our people were fed out
of the common store and laboured
jointly together, glad was he who
could slip from his labour, or slum-
Der over his taske. The most hon
est among them would hardly take
so much true paines in a weeks, as
now for themselves they will doe
in a day; neither cared they for
the increase, presuming that how
soever the harvest prospered the
general store must maintainc
them, so that wee reaped not 50
much Cone from the labours of
thirtie as now three or four dod
provide for themselves
This is the spirit of THANKS
GIVING DAY. 1t is the fabric of
that which we proudly call the
American Way. 1t brought Ameri-
ca from barren wilderness to the
most powerful nation of history in
three short centuries.
Knowing this, we should have a
new zest for our traditional feast
Of turkey and pumpkin pie. We
should also have a new respect for
the Constitution designed to pre-
serve this way Of life, forever.
But the feast, the celebration,
the tradition, even the law of the
Constitution is not enough to keep
the liberty for which we give
thanks. This we can do for our
selves by rejecting socialistic sub
stitutes, supporting the PROPOSE
ton that the individual is supreme,
and crystallizing this principle in
to law by amending the Constitu-
ton to provide that:
The Government of the United
States shall not engage in any
business, professional. commercial,
financial or industrial enterprise
except as specified in the COnsti-
tuition.
