Washington and Cardozo belong
in the upper bracket. Dun

Bladensburg and st. Adams
rate in the lower bracket.
This is by no means conclu-
sive. In the next few weeks po-
Isitions can. and very likely viii.
be juggled.
Only two clubs among the top
10 are NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and
Gonzaga. The Clerks could wind
up the season with a clean rec
ord. Only Eastern. Fairmoni
Heights, Armstrong. bal
tBaltimore) and Dunbar remain
TO be played. and none should
prove to be too much Of q
stumbling block.
Gonzaga has to- play Tech
Eastern. Roosevelt, Carroll, Cool
,idge, Anacostia, Georgetown
Frosh. st. Johns. DeMatha and
Bladensburg. The Eagles, con-
,ceivably. could have their wings
clipped by two or three Of these
teams.
Whether Spingarn or Con-
2aga remain unbeaten won't be
determined for another few
weeks. Meanwhile, should either
or both taste defeat, st. Johns.
George Washington and Car
dozo are hanging in close enough
to move UP, with Dunbar and
Washington-Lee given an out
side chance.
It's the stretch run for these
teams as they try to maintain q
high ranking and win In their
respective leagues or. at worst,
gain q coveted spot in the play
offs.

There are some 6O-odd scho-
1astic basketball teams in the
area, but not a real solid club in
the bunch.
About a dozen teams are all
that could be given consideration
in a rating list. Half of those
could be classified as good. the
other half fair. All others are
back in the field.
Just where the separation
comes between the good and the
fair is anybody's guess. On 9
day when a team is "up." the fair
could turn out to be good.
The so-called top teams car
be picked from George Wash
ington, Washington-Lee, Cardozo,
st. Johns, Dunbar, Spingarn
DeMatha. Herndon, Gonzaga
Bladensburg. st. Adams, Arm
strong and Northwestern. That's
bakers dozen.
Barring q complete collapse
these are the teams that prob
ably will stick in the select circle
for the remaining three or -four
weeks Of regular season play.
And a few Of them are sus-
pect. Herndon, despite the SEN
sational play Of Roy Fox. Is still
in Group II play and probably
would find it tough going IN a
faster league.
Three other teams, Armstrong.
Bladensburg and Northwestern.
are borderline cases insofar as
a select list is concerned. They'll
have to win. but good. to keep
from being dropped from con-
tention.

To-day break in its schedule and
Coach Tommy Nolan was moan
ing over the lack of work for his

as the Eagles find themselves
playing three games in as many
days this week.
The first was yesterday at
Northwestern as Gonzaga ran
into unexpected trouble with the
Wildcats and had to go into
overtime to pull out a $3.50, VIC
tory and maintain its unbeaten
record Of eight straight.
Eve just came OF a tough win

was natural there would be a
let down, but we didn't think it
would be our defenses," Nolan
said. sits hard to get the boys
up for some Of these games,
particularly three in a row. and
Ias q consequence they become a

The Eagles are at Tech this
afternoon and Eastern tomor-

should be bothersome for Con-
zaga. considering the $3.50 rec
ord Of the opponents.
Gonzaga. playing Its GUS
tomary steady game at the OUT
set. held a 1927 halftime lead,
but then Northwestern began to
close the gap as it found leaks
in Gonzaga's defenses.
The Wildcats kept boring In
until with 90 seconds remaining
in the game, Carroll johnson
connected on two foul shots to
tie 1t up. 57-57.
It was all Gonzaga, however,
in the 3-ininute overtime period
with Tom McCloskey and Bill

points each in the 9-point total

surge in industrial activity here
at home provided an ever-grow-
ing market for foreign goods.
Industry, humming at a record
clip. used an increasing volume
of foreign raw materials. The
American people, their earning
power at an all-time high, step
ped up their buying of foreign
made consumer products. The
result was a rising flow Of over
seas imports: Handbags from
Italy and Spain, gloves from
France, glassware and cotton
textiles from Japan, automobiles
from Germany, watches from
Switzerland, bicycles from Brit
ain.
Selective Policy
The United States pursued a
selective policy toward foreign
imports. It's overall policy was
one of easing restrictions. Con-
gress extended the reciprocal
trade agreements act: President
urged that the United
States play a leading role in the
tariff cutting talks scheduled att
Geneva this year under the aegisl
OF ''GATT'-the General Agree
ment on Tariffs and Trade.
At the same time, the adj
ministration approved a so perl

States oil companies TO go easyI
on their imports of foreign oil.
1t asked Japan to restrain its
textile exports to the United
States.
