REDSKINS LOSE LINE COACH
HefferIe Is Hired
BY Boston College

NEWTON, Mass, Dec. 26
(AP). - Boston College an
nounced today it has signed
Ernie Hefferle, A, Washington
Redskins line coach, to a three
year contract as head football
coach.
william J. Flynn, director Of
athletics, made the announce
ment.
Hefferle replaces Mike Holo-
yak, who resigned and has since
been signed as a scout for the
as yet unnamed Boston team
In the new American Football
League.
Prior to signing with the
Washington pros in May, 1853,
Heferle was chief assistant
football coach at the University
of Pittsburgh from 1850 to
1858.
He was graduated from
Duquesne University. where he
starred as an end from 1888
through 1886. He was an ALL
East selection in 1886.
Informed Of Hefferle'S ap-
pointment, George Marshall,
owner Of the Redskins, said:
That's wonderful. I'm de-
lighted because it's a wonder
full opportunity for him. I
think he'll make a great
coach"
Marshall said he was sur
prised about the development,
although Hefferle had told
Head Coach Mike Nixon he had
been contacted about the Bos-
ton College job week ago. At
that time Ernie had no idea he
could land it.

achievement never before ac-
complished by the Northerners
in the 2l-game series. A crowd
of 10000 sat through the game

The Blue attack was engi-

Ross Fichtner of Purdue and
Jack Lee of Cincinnati, who
handled the passing chores, and
Fullback Jim Joyce of Mary
land, a pile-driving workhorse
who ripped through the Gray
line time and again.
Both Make Strong Stands
Both teams barely missed
scoring opportunities because
Of unyielding goal-line stands
by opposing linemen. The
Rebels drove to the Blues l in
the first quarter and again in
the third period, but both times
the drives fell short. Gray line
men duplicated the perform

stopping the Yanks on the 4,
and later by intercepting a
pass on the South'S 8.
The Northerners scored twice
on short line plunges from the
3 and once on a pass. The Rebs'
touchdown came on a pass.
After a scoreless first period,
Iowa State Tailback Dwight
Nichols put the Blues out in
front early in the second period
with a 21-yard scoring pass TO
Doug Asad of Northwestern in
the end zone. Lee kicked the
first of two extra points.
Joyce made it a two-touch-

ERADICATION OF POLIO
CONCERN OF FOUNDATION

The complete and final eradica-
ton of polio still remains a prime
concern of the National Founda-
ton as it goes into its 21st an
nual March of Dimes, it was en-
phasized here today by R. j.
Hammer, campaign director of
Richland County.
"The Salk vaccine, developed
with March of Dimes funds" the
director said, "gives us a power
full weapon for knocking out
polio. With this victory in sight,
even though not yet achieved, the
National Foundation is preparing
to march Toward Greater Victor
les in the realm of public health.
But the National Foundation is
still pledged to give patient aid
to all polio victims past or fu-
ture who need its help"
Estimates indicate some 100000
survivors of paralytic polio might
benefit from modern technigues
of rehabilitation pioneered by the
National Foundation. Some $4,000
are already on its patient aid
chapter rolls.
"In polio research" the director
said, "the National Foundation is
seeking to increase the effective
ness Of the Salk vaccine; indica-
tons are that it is 80 per cent
effective with three properly
spaced shots. Also being studied
is a live virus vaccine that can
be taken orally. The Salk vaccine
is q dead virus vaccine requiring
a series of injections. Other
National Foundation researchers
are looking for better ways to
lessen the Gripping a~fter-effects
of polio"
The campaign director pointed
out that while polio is on the
run it is still crippling people
more than three years after
development of a preventive
vaccine.
1--WE must keep up our vaccina-
ton education program to pre-
vent unnecessary crippling," the
director said, land we must take

raise our sights to include the

if you are throwing away colo
strum you may also be throwing
away an opportunity to sell more
milk and cream and to raise
healthier calves.
The colostrum that is produced
for a few days after a COW fresh
ems contains the basic nutrients
which give new calves a good start
in life. It is high in vitamins and
contains antibodies which give
calves passive immunity against
many infectious diseases.
When 1t is not convenient to
save all the colostrum, it should
be fed to other calves. You can
feed it straight or mixed with
other milk but be careful not to
overfeed it as this may cause
digestive upsets.
To illustrate the value of colo
strum, two researchers at Ohio
State University followed the plan
of using all the colostrum from a
70 cow herd. The surplus colo
strum was fed to older calves. By
feeding all the colostrum to CAL

milk sales by 1000 pounds in

Sam Rayburn
Yields Gave| as
Congress Convenes

When the 86th Congress Con-
venes on January 7th, Sam Ray
burn will take up the gavel he has
welded for a record-breaking Is
years as speaker of the House of
Representatives.
The Texas Democrat has held
the post almost twice as long as
any other speaker. But two Re-
publicans gave the speakership
experts to rank it as the second
most important office in the ma
ton.
Henry Clay was the first to turn
the office to political advantage.
The speaker was simply an impart-
ial moderator before Clay's cleo
ton in 1911. But, according to
The World Book Encyclopedia,
the "Great COMPROMISED" used
the office to argue so forcefully
for the War Of 1872 that it was
called "Mr. Clay's War"
However, the speakership was
transformed into a political tool
almost as powerful as the presi-
dency by Thomas Reed and "Uncle
Joe" Cannon.
In 1890, Reed cracked down on
the delaying tactics of minority
groups by counting members as a
Quorum-a number sufficient to
conduct business - even If they
did not vote.
The move earned Reed the nick
name" Gar" but the Supreme
Court later upheld the rule.
Reeds methods were only the
starting point for Joseph Cannon,
who ruled the House like a dicta-
tor in the early 1900's.
Once, after putting a question
for a voice vote, Uncle Joe" de-
clared, "The ayes make the most
noise but the hayes have it."
Even some members Of Cannon's
party rebelled. In 1910, on st. Pat
rick's Day, a coalition OF Demo-
Gratis and about 80 Republicans set
out to strip Cannon Of much Of his
power.
Because of the "St. Patrick's
Day Revolution" Sam Rayburn
has little of the formal authority
which Reed and Cannon delegated
to themselves.
He still has the important
Speakers eye" or the power Of
recognizing members who wish
to speak on the floor.
But most Of his strength comes
from an informal source-the
party discipline he can maintain
as leader Of the majority party in
the House.

CONTROVERSIAL CORN
SILAGE ISSUE IN MONTANA

CONTROVERSIAL CORN
SILAGE ISSUE IN MONTANA
Wether to go for later maturing
varieties which yield higher ton
mage or to stick to medium matur-
ing varieties yielding more total
dry matter in the silo is of i'm
p~ortance to farmers.
This issue was discussed by DR..
E. r. Helm of the Montana State
College Agronomy and Soils De-
partment at a recent beef produc-
ton school. DR.. Helm states that
farmers who grow corn for silage
will get higher yields if they hand
lie the crop as a grass rather than
as a grain crop. He also points out
that the Midwestern concept of
corn as a grain crop must be mod
flied under Montana conditions.
The reason cited was that an at
tempt to grow corn in Montana
which will produce mature grain
will result in low silage yields.
Helm feels that the large number
of comparisons in Montana has
established that more tons of dig
estible nutrients can be grown per
acre by growing orr as a grass.
The chemical analysis of the
corn plant from tasseling to mat
urity shows that dry matter pre-
sent is strikingly similar at the
various stages of maturity. How
ever, the amount of water present
is very different. Helm points out
that while this dry matter is sim
liar, the resulting ensilage pro-
ducts are not the same. The big
difference is in the water content.
He states that much remains to be
learned about feeding immature
corn silage to various kinds of live
stock.
Since this is true, we conclude
that farmers may want to know
how much change they desire in
ensilage content when they con-
slider variety changes in cor seed
to plant next spring.
