Cowboy Ride With Jokgenson

LARAMIE, Wyo. Wyoming
University's drive to regain the
Skyline Conference basketball
championshipship it has held sew
en- of the last II seasons may de-
pend upon the success of co-captain
Harry JorgenSen, a 6 foot 6 senior
forward.
A trick knee troubled Jorgensen
last season but an operation last
spring is believed to have eliminat-
ed that problem.
Jorgensen is 1913 FOUNDER who
stands out in battling under the
basket for rebounds and excels at
close-in shooting. Although he miss
ed 10 Cowboy games last season
because of the knee injury he Scor-
ed 243 points in IS games to lead
Wyoming point makers with an
average of 1875 points per game.
JorgenSen, 21-year-old senior
from Brighton, Colo, has won two
previous letters but Coach Ev Shell
ton expects Jorgensen's play
this season to rate him considera-
ton for All America.
Shelton describes Jorgensen "aS
good an all-around big man as
we've had here in the past 10
years" That is high praise in view
of Wyoming's record.
Since 1943 Excluding 1945 when
the war cancelled out basketbalD
the Cowboys have held the Skyline
championship seven times. Brig
ham Young University held it three
times and Colorado Ann, for the
first time last year, cracked the
stranglehold Wyoming and B4u
had on the Skyline crown.
Jorgensen is one of four seniors
forming the backbone of Wyo-
ming's team. Two-year lettermen
with him are guards Nick Eliopulos,
Pete Fowler and Bob Moore. Also
back as a junior is Ed HuSe, 8
foot s, 23O FOUNDER who plays cen
ter is sophomore Dave Bradley.

Fordham Drops
Football After
HEAVY Losses

NEW YORK R-For the fifth
time" in its 71-year history-Speck-
led with great teams and brilliant
professionalism University has
decided to drop football, this time
perhaps for good
On the four other occasions it
discontinued the sport various reas-
ons were at hand. This time it's
the continued financial loss" the
university has suffered through re-
cent years, with no hope of i'm
provement in the future.
The Rev. Laurence J Mckinley,
president of the university, nailed
the cause in a letter to alumni
which was released with the an
nouncement of the end of football
at Fordham yesterday.
Friends and alumni" he wrote,
''like to read about (our football)
in the Sunday papers. The trouble
simply is that so few want to
watch it on Saturday-and the
tickets are sold for Saturday."
The end of Fordham football, an
nounced by Jack Coffey, graduate
manager of athletics. came after
horrible 1854 season for the
Rams. They won only one game
and tied one while losing seven.
They also lost Coach Ed Danow-
ski, an all-time Fordham great
and head coach since 1916, who
resigned after the past season.
The decision to drop football was
judged essential to the university's
best interests. In his letter to
alumni, Mckinley wrote:
mo part of Fordham is conduct
ed for profit. Fordham has great
task to do in preparing its 100, 900

Olson Stops
.Langlois In
llth Round
By BOB MYERS

SAN FRANCISCO LR - Screams
of anguish echoed from one sec
tor of the French boxing front to-
day but the fact remains that
Americas Carl (Bobo) Olson still
holds a firm grip on the world
middleweight championship.
Olson, 26, always a cruel but
seldom a killing puncher, stopped
Pierre Langlois, 20 of France last
night after 5S seconds of the 11th
round.
Slated for Is rounds the national
ly teleyised attraction was halted
by Referee Ray Flores because of
the unsightly condition of Pierre's
left brow and eyelid.
A noisy crowd of 16,543 a the
Cow Palace paid gross of SLOT $50
which returned a net of $93, 1863, aft.
er taxes.
O.son first ripped open the brow
in the best round of the fight the
sixth, and gave it an unmerciful
lashing in the torrid 10th.
Langlois, his chance of overtak
ing the front-punching Olson fast
disappearing, came out for the 11th
with the cut temporarily mended
by his handlers.
1t took Olson but a few seconds
to start the blood pouring again,
and that's when Flores stepped in.
DR.. Robert Laddon, State Ath.
.etic Commission physician, exam
ined the cut and advised that to
let Langlois continue would be to
risk serious eye injury.
There were some boos from the
gallery, mainly because they hated
to see fight stopped.
LangloiS' manager Jean Breton
and his voluble American rep
resentative George Kanter of New
York were fuming.
Barely in the dressing room,
Kanter, who speaks good French,
said in plain English:
''The public was cheated.
''Langlois was coasting in the
10th and 18th rounds in order to
finish strong.
''The doctors and referees in
California are lousy. In New York
they are Okay."
Langlois, nursing cut two inch
eS long and a quarter inch wide,
said nothing.
Kanter said Olson butted Pierre
in the 10th round.
Informed of this, Olson retorted.
"If anybody butted in the 10th
round, it was Langlois when ne
weaved and shook his head in the
corner"
Olson, shuffling, chopping in one
round, standing off and slashing
away from long range in another,
was far in front at the finish.
Flores and Judge Jack Downey
had him in front under Cali
fornia's 11-point-per-round scoring
system, 59l2 -501A. Judge Vern By
bee scored it 59-51. The Associ-
ated Press card read 591a-50l2.

Now Marciano rules the roost

Wallace became preoccupied

centrating on becoming a good

News Fol. Veterans

For the first time since
the enactment Of the Korean
CT Bill two years ago, Vet
Grams Administration said,
more Korean veterans are in
training than those enrolled
under the original CT Bill.
While the great majority
of World War III veterans
in training have completed
their programs and the num-
bers in training are dwind-
ling fast, the number Of Ko-
rean veterans in training has
shown a steady increase, as
more young veterans are re-
leased from active military
service each month.
The number of post-Ko-
rean veterans who have
taken education or training
under the Korean CT Bill
Public Law 55O--in the past
two years has passed the
half-million mark, according
to VA. 4IlU
At the same time, the
number of post-Korean vet
Grams actually in training at
the present time has mount
ed to approximately 100000.
BY comparison, the number
of World War II veterans in
training under the original
CT Bill has dropped to 1885,
600 in their enrolment fig
ures are showing a steady
decrease.
In college CT training, the
number of Korean veterans
enrolled is almost double
that of World War II vet
Grams.
However, in vocational,

below the college level, there
are still more World War III
veterans in CT training, with
a total Of approximately
100000, compared to less
than 100000 below college
trainees from the post-Ko-
rean ranks.
Q-Tm planning to take
flight training under the Ko-
rean CT Bill. Will 1 be al
lowed 30 days absences a
year, the same as veterans
taking trade and vocational
courses?
A-No. Under the Korean
CT Bill, you will be paid on
the basis of flight instruc-
ton actually received-and
nothing more. You will not
be paid for absences.
Q-My husband was killed
in Korea, and I've been re-
ceiving monthly indemnity
payments of 1920. Will
those payments stop if 1 re

A-No. Remarriage will

titlement to the indemnity

advance payments be of any
size, or is there some mini

On January 18th l joined with GO
of my colleagues on the Democratic

lining the minimum program for the
Improvement of the present Social
Insurance System.
This statement, initiated by Con-
gresham John d. Dingell (D-Mich.)

Committee and one of the architects
of the present Social Security system,
was concurred in by almost all the
minority members of the Ways and

The seven basic changes which will
meet the minimum requirements of
the American people as set forth by
the statement of 81 Democratic mem
bers of the House are:
1. Basic retirement and survivors
protection should be extended to |
more than 10 million persons not now |
