Lehigh Invades
Newark Saturday
In Pigskin Debut

An optimistic University of
Delaware football outlook will
be put to a stern test Saturday
when Lehigh University's En-
gineers invade Delaware Stad-
lum in the first game of the
season. Game time is 2 pm.
Boosting a club that promises
to be better and more colorful
than last years edition, which
slipped by the Blue Hens, 81,
Lehigh will attempt to nip in
the bud Delaware's chances for
top honors in the University
Division of the Middle Atlantic
Conference.
To meet a challenging sched-
ule, Lehigh has game-wise ex-
perience in the backfield, with
six lettermen returning to oper-
ate behind a line that will have
more speed and maneuverabil-
ity than a year ago.
To counter the Lehigh threat,
Delaware coach Dave Nelson
will depend upon the experience
of an all-veteran first team.
With 19 lettermen back, the
Hens have two-deep letterman
experience at eight positions.
and one veteran at each of the
other three posts.
Among the probable starters
when the Hens open their nine
game schedule, will be at least
four Delaware n i've s-End
Dick Broadbent, junior from
Wilmington's Conrad Hi G h
School; Tackle Ray Klapinsky
and Center and Captain Mark
Hurm, both from Newark, and
Guard Leon Dombrowski, of
Wilmington's Salesianum High.
"MirrOred" Attack
Other probable starters are
End Mickey Heinecken, Half
back Jack Turner and Quarter
back Gampy Pellegrini, all OF
Philadelphia; Fullback T n y
Suravitch, Chester; Halfback
John Bowman, York, Pa; Tackle
John Mordas, South River, N. J..
and Guard Otto Fad, Ft. Wash
ington, Pa.
Nelson, undisputed master oi
the popular Winged-T offense
is expected to introduce some
new tricks on the gridiron for
Delaware followers this year,
including what he calls a mir
Tored" attack, where all the
backs can play just about any
backfield position.
The Blue Hen coach hopes to
shake up opponent defenses by
a constant shuffling of the back
field faces. Bowman and Sur
avitch will alternate between
fullback and either half, while
Turner will switch from one
side to the other.
The Hens hope to combine
a strong ground attack, char
acteristic of Nelson-c h e d
teams through the years, with
a potent aerial barrage. Della
ware has its tallest and most
talented pair of ends in nearly
a decade in Heinecken and
Broadbent, and all depends on
the accurate tossing of Quart
erback Pellegrini.

posed to opponents with a Del

that problem are caused precisely
because factors non-economic in
nature constantly are being in
jected into it."
Imposition of increased duties
on oil imports would restore
certainty and clarity to the situa-
ton, Mr.. Dunlop contended, add
ing:
"This method would place all
sellers and buyers of foreign oil
upon an equal footing and most
important in our minds it would
preserve freedom of action and
freedom of opportunity for all
wishing to engage in this type of
business and willing to assume
its risks.
There would be no question of
discrimination, he told the ODM
hearing, between established i'm
porter and newcomers. Each would
face precisely the same require
ments insofar as governmental
action was concerned"
All that has happened since the
1856 ODM hearings confirms and
strengthens our belief (that) oil
imports should be curtaileo
through the realistic imposition of
appropriate tariffs that would ap-
ply to all importers, Mr.. Dunlop
concluded.

Federal Aid Funds
Not Affected BY
Admission OF States

Montana's apportionment of fed
eral aid funds for Wildlife and
fish restoration will not be notably
affected by the recent admission
of Alaska and Hawaii to the state
hood, Walter j. Everin, fish and
game department director an
nounced this week. With the ad-
mission of Alaska to the union
such federal aid is expected to be
reduced somewhat. Hawaii, how
ever, has been under a separate
ALLEGATION through a bill enacted
several years ago by Congress.
Federal aid for fish and Wild
life is administered by the u. S.
Fish and Wildlife service under
two acts, Everin explained. The
Pittman-Robertson Act collects an
ii percent excise tax on all
sporting arms and ammunition
sold in the United States. The Din
percent excise tax on sport fishing
equipment.
Moneys from these two federal
funds ire distributed among the
states on the basis of respective
license sales and total land area
in proportion to the entire license
sales and land area of the United
States. States match these grants
with $1.00 for every $500 of fed
eral money used, the director said.
Another change in the rapport
ionpent of Pittman-Robertson
wildlife funds to the states is pro-
posed by the Department of In
terror. A legal opinion of u. S.
solicitor would base a part of the
reapportionment for mula on the
number of persons licensed to
hunt, rather than a total license
sales as is now the case.
States which have several types
Of hunting licenses could suffer

tenn but it is expected that this

to residents and non-residents.
Under the new formula funds

mined, however, until complete
studies of license records are made
in each state.
In the last five federal fiscal
years Montana has received, in
round figures wildlife restoration
appointments ranging from
100000 to $525, 900 for fisheries,
the apportionment ranged from

Sun Oil President
Views Foreign Oil.
Tariff Reductions

Philadelphia-Sun Oil Company
today renewed its proposal to
bring about a reduction in foreign
oil imports through the imposition
of appropriate tariffs as a substi-
tute for the current mandatory
quota restrictions.
Suns president, Robert G.. Dun
lop, urged this curse of action as
necessary to avoid current Federal
policing of our oil prices, which
he said may lead to further con-
trolls over the petroleum industry.
At the same time, Mr.. Dunlop
asserted that there is no justfi-
cation whatsoever for any policing
of oil prices, which, he commended,
did not reflect the increased cost
of wages, equipment, supplies and
services occurring as a result of
initiation following World War II.
Mr.. Dunlop reiterated tn S
Company position, first presented
in 1856, in a discussion of the rec
emily imposed oil imports controls
in a forthcoming issue of Suns
quarterly publication, OUR SUN.
When President Eisenhower
imposed mandatory quotas on oil
imports, he ordered the Director of
Civilian and Defense Mobilization
to keep 'the entire program under
constant surveillance" and to
determine whether any price in
creases that may occur "are nee
essary to accomplish the national
security detectives" of the import
restrictions.
Mr.. Dunlop asserted sit would
be a serious mistake" to regard
this assumption of Federal author
ity over oil prices as a meaning
less gesture"
SIN our opinion, he said, "it
portends serious consequences for
the oil industry, consumers of pet
roleum products and the national
defense"
Instead of remaining free to det-
ermine the prices of their products
primarily in response to supply,
demand and other competitive fact
ors giving expression to consumer
Desires, the Sun Oil president
stated, "oil men now must also
give consideration to bureaucratic
desires and the demands of politi-
cal expediency."
Governmental price-policing
undertakings" are an illusion and
snare that never work for long,,
Mr.. Dunlop contended, adding that
eff past experience is a true guide
to future possibilities. it is viz
certain that price-policing
will become but a first step in the
extension Of governmental con-
troll over the oil business"
Mr.. Dunlop said that n con-
-rol "inevitably leads to another

personal freedoms are lost"

seem to be travelling, he con-

Mr.. Dunlop recalled Sun Oil
