ATCHISON'S
ANGLE
By LEWIS r. ATcHIsoN.

The erican Football
League could do worse than
draw on this area for some
officials for its whistle blowing
corps for 1860. Tom Whelan
off1ciated in the old All Amer
lea Conference and Orrell
Mitchell worked for the Ma
tional Football League. But the
latter. with its sorry record. ap-
parently doesn't want to be
"pressured" into trying out po-
tentially good men.
Tom Sullivan and Francis
(Horse) Holbrook, two who
would like to take a fling at
pro officiating, were recon-
mended to Mike Wilson a cou-
pie Of years ago. But the chief
Of the NILS staff apparently
couldn't believe their sparkling
recommendations, and their
applications have been collect
ing dust at league headquar-
tiers since.
Nelson Harvey of Arlington
and Johnny Roper are a couple
of others who might help i'm
prove the officiating, which
reached such a low last year
the Redskins protested almost
every week. and complaints
were heard from all over the
land. Whether all of these men
would be willing to try it is
something else again, because
all have responsible positions
and offlciate only because they
like football.
- -
Roper got into it because his
doctor ordered him to get out
and run" to rid himself of a
pesky allergy. Holbrook, chief
of Estate and Gift Tax Section,
Internal Operations Division,
United States Revenue Service,
and Sullivan are former play
erS. Sullivan is in charge of the
Government Services real
estate department.
you've got to like the game
and have a thick skin to be a
good Official" one old timer
told us. These boys have It,"
The old-timer told a story
about Holbrook that illustrated
Horses ability to handle a diff
ficult situation. He called a IS
yard penalty on a high school
boy and the youngSter, without
looking at the official mumbled:
why, you bald-headed old So
and-so."
That's IS more and you're
out of the game" Holbrook an
nounced.
II wasn't talking to you"
the lad protested.
Eyes, you were" Holbrook
replied. I'm the only bald
headed old so-and-so on this
field"
Roper recalls a service game
in which a tall, thin and I'M
calmly end kept haunting the
opposition with calls to run the
play my way" The opposition
obliged, chewing of 5 and 6
yards q try until it ground
down to the 2-yard line.
"Okay," the end called out |
again, "just run that ball my
way"
With that the captain of the
defending team dashed up.
Keep that big, fat mouth Of
yours shut" he ordered. "One
more time your way and they'll |
have a touchdown"
Roper. who is area develop
ment consultor for the Wash
ington Gas Light Co., remem-
bers a tight game at The Cita-
del in which Newberry College
scored a touchdown in the |
last 20 seconds to tie it at |
1920. On the ensuing kickoff,
Angelo Cola of The Citadel
raced the length of the field
for what appeared to the
be the winning touch
down.
Il was trailing him when a
flag sailed over my head"

Byrd to Fight
Repeal Of
Work Law

Senator Harry F. Byrd, Dem
orat of Virginia, announced
today he will fight any at
tempt to carry out a pledge in
the Democratic platform to re-
peal the section of the Taft
Hartley law which recognizes
the right Of States to pass
right-to-work laws.
In a speech prepared for de-
livery in the Senate, the Vir-
ginian pointed out that 20
States have enacted right-to-
work laws which bar union
shop agreements.
"Fulfillment Of the Los An
geles pledge would enable the
Warren Court (the Supreme
Court to strike down all Of
these State laws" said Senator
Byrd, land, freed Of the con-
gressional restriction. I suspect
the Warren court would act
promptly"
Senator Byrd pointed out
that Virginia is one Of the
States which passed right-to-
work law 13 years ago.
The Democratic platform
pledge taken in Los Angeles
would be destructive of two
great principles on which this
Nation is founded-individual
liberty and States rights"
Senator Byrd continued.
These are among the safe
guards of our freedom against
tyrannical central government
To defend this freedom I shall,
oppose the platform pledge tc
repeal the authorization fol
State right-to-work laws
whenever and wherever the eff.
fort is made"
