For boys of this community who
have been waiting for the call for
Glass F Basketball, here it is.
Dick Sneller, Y Physical Instruc-
tor, announces the clinic, which
always marks the opening of play,
has been set for Saturday, Decem-
Der 22nd from 1890 to 2:30 p. m.
at Shaw Gymnasium.
All boys Is to 15 years of age are
eligible to sign up. However, the
boy must be Is by January 1st,
1857, and must not be member of

will be charged an entry fee of one
dollar.
Class F. Basketball is sponsored
by the East Cleveland Exchange
Club and is supervised by the East
Cleveland YMCA. Letters and
numbered jerseys will be furnished
to all Glass F Players by their
sponsors.
All boys interested must attend
the clinic, states Director Dick
Sneller. Rules will be discussed
which particularly affects the play
ers. Members of Shaw High Var
sity, who serve as coaches during
the season, will be on hand to dem
onstrate various phases of the
game, including such basic funda-
mentals as shooting, passing, drib-
bling, zone and man-for-man

The East Cleveland Safety Coun-
Gil says:
Are your feet killing you? Well,
they might do just that, if you're
not careful. The East Cleveland
Chapter National Safety Council
tells us that every year, in our
cities, more than half of all fatal
motor vehicle accidents involve
pedestrians. There's something al
most suicidal about walkers who
make statistics like that, and care
| lessness is the word that sums it
up. To avoid accidents, and to live
lot longer, all it takes is few
common-sense walking rul s.
Crossing in the middle of the block
is one of the most frequent re-
ported causes of pedestrian acci-
dents, so, don't do it! Cross at in
tersections, use crosswalks, and
obey traffic signals. And once
you're in the street remember to
stay on guard for traffic coming
from your left or right, and for
cars turning. Keep in mind that
reckless drivers always seem to
pop up when you least expect
them. Watch your step from curb
to curb Don't let your feet kill
you!

ample. a little tension developed
in the Middle East, it didn't take
the Navy long to get moving
Our fleets were at sea in a cou-
pie Of hours. In spite of the fact
that it is reputed that it takes
us a long time to move, we moved
fast. Two-thirds of our operat-
ing forces put to sea in the
recent Middle East crisis.
Hillman: What is the situation
now?
Admiral Burke: Well, we are
facing a very interesting situa-
ton. We won't start a nuclear
war. I believe the Soviet Union
doesn't really want to start q
nuclear war.
But we have got to be willing
to fight for our principles. We
can't let the Kremlin, or any
other nation say, well, am
going to start a nuclear war if
you don't do as we want" be-
cause they will try to blackmail
us into doing anything they want
to do on the threat of nuclear
war.
So, they have got to realize
the whole world has got to
realize-we are not so afraid of
war that we are unwilling to
stand up for our principles. We
have got to stand UP. The
American people always do, in
evitably. 1t takes a long time,
sometimes, but they do.
The situation adds UP at the
moment TO the fact that there
appears to be little chance of a
general nuclear war.

as a result and were afraid to
repeat statements they had made
in private interviews.
| Critics during the hearings
charged that the Davis investi-
lgation was biased. All commit
ltee members except Mr.. Hyde
and Mr.. Miller were signers of
the congressional Southern
Manifesto" against integration,
and Mr.. Davis and Mr.. Williams
have both criticized District in
tegration publicly.
Some Proposals Anticipated
Some Of the legislative pro-
Iposals made in the report had
been expected. There were ad-
vance reports of the move to
alter boundary rules. a key part
OF the present integration pro-
gram.
Mr.. Gerber during the hear
ings contrasted the strict boun-
dairy system here with the situa-
tions in Baltimore, Md, and
Louisville. KY, both of which
allow pupils to enroll at schools
OF their own choice, except when
crowding prevents it.
Some Washington citizens have
urged relaxation of the present
rules here. The school system
ALREADY allows some pupil trans
fers, although ostensibly not on
a racial basis.
College Proposals Unexpected
The proposal for apparent
abandoning of the city teacher
college in favor of q two-year
community college was not fore
shadowed in the hearings. There
was only one witness-an ex-
nurse from the college-who
testified directly about the now
integrated institution.
School officials, rather than
proposing abandonment of
teacher-training, are proposing
to add junior college and even
tually expand the institution to
Ia full-scale city college.
One other recommendation in
the Gerber report-for estab-
lishment of a city-wide technical
Ischool-was unexplained. The
city already has such a school,
Mckinley High School, which
is currently being re-equipped.
The city also has several
schools primarily or entirely for
slower or non-academic pupils,
and officials have proposed con-
|verting Armstrong High School
10 such a school.
Many of the Gerber reports
conclusions ran counter to testi-
mony by school officials at the
hearings.

which was drafted by William E
Gerber, special subcommittee
counsel. following hearings helc
in September, included a list Of
10 findings and conclusions
and another of 10 recommends.
tions for legislation.
The conclusions, in sum, were
that the city's integration pro-
gram has been too hasty, has
driven white residents from the
city and has caused numerous
school problems. The report
branded the program mot a

Recommendations Listed
The recommendations, all of
which are subject to considera-
ton by the House District Com
mittee, and some of which would
also require appropriations ac-
tion by Congress, covered a wide
range. They included:
Liberalizing student transfer
rules to permit moves "in ac-

child and the desires of the
parents"
Creation Of separate trade

achieving at the high school

afford to abandon to an enemy
even temporarily. In addition
to that, the power and range of
naval weapons have increased
tremendously in recent years.
This means the importance to
our survival of maintaining tight
control of the worlds oceans and
denying the seas to powerful
enemy forces-Submarines, air.
craft. long-range missile ships
is greater than ever. Nothing is
more important to the defense
Iof the United States than con-
troll of the seas.
Hillman: What about the Rus
sian navy?
Admiral Burke: We are not
alone in knowing that our need
for a Navy is greater than ever.
The Soviets know this. Russia
didn't have much Of a navy
during the last war-very little.
Right after World War II she
didn't pay much attention to it.
Then Russia decided to analyze
the situation. The Russians
Studied the whole war--both
sides Of it. They didn't build UP
their navy until their analysis
was completed. 1t took them
about five years to work it out
to see what they needed. When
they got their analysis they
found out things that we already
knew.
They concluded that if we in
the United States are to have
any allies at all, we must con-
troll the seas. We have to have
our ships go from here to Europe,
and reach Europe, and go from
here to Japan. and reach Japan,
and Taiwan. and other allies. If
we couldn't move by sea, we
would be stalled right back here
in the United States and we
couldn't help anybody. All we
could do would be to stay within
the waters of the United States
and wait for the attacks to come
to us. The war would be fought
in and over our own country. We
would lose.
Built Navy for Offense
Let us not forget also that we
ourselves are dependent upon
the seas for a lot of important
materials from other lands. All
of these things were pointed out
to the Russians by their experts
in their studies. So the Russians
decided to build a navy. They
are not dependent upon the
seas like we are. They are what
l might call an internal nation.
They are situated in Eurasia.
They don't have to use the seas
too much. But they know they
have to deny use of the seas to
the free world in order to win.
Well, what kind of a navy did
they want? They built a navy for
that purpose.
The best weapons to deny us
the use Of the seas are sub
marines. The Soviets developed
a good basic submarine and then

want their navy to have the first

Admiral Burke: Because they

craft to support their surface
ships and submarines, and they
have been getting good training
in ships and aircraft working
together. There is a lot of CO.
ordination between their air
their submarines, and their sur.
face units. They are pretty
good, we hear.
Hillman: Admiral, let me go
back a little and ask you about
all-Out nuclear war.
Admiral Burke: We are ap-
preaching a situation in which
both we and our possible enemies
can mutually destroy each other.
For example, I am sure that
with our present forces we could
regardless of the effects of an
unprovoked surprise attack on
their part. regardless of their
defenses, regardless of anything
else-we could not be prevented
from destroying the important
parts of the U. S. S. r. and
literally running it completely il
we were attacked.
On the other hand, in the
near future, they may well have
a similar capability in relation
to us. The Distant Early Warm
ing Line which we have built
merely gives us warning. Now
we can hit back in case of ag-
gression, and destroy the aggres-
sor not merely by one means but
! by several means. We have the

Then they started to build them
in numbers. Well, you can whir
submarines. But they can give
you trouble. They decided also
to build all the other kinds OF
weapons they could use at sea
fairly near the coastline oi
Eurasia. the idea being that they
would attack our ships 300 tn
500 miles from the coast, and
not try to come over here, al
though their long-range SUBJ
marines would. Their surface
