ponents were prolific, so were
the Cleveland Browns and De-

Browns Rally to Win
The Browns took second
place in the East with an 8-3-1
record by rallying for 27 points
in the final period to blast the
New York Giants, 1894. and
the Lions earned the Western
berth with a 800 whitewash Of
the Chicago Bears.
Actually, the Lions (7-S)
finished in a second-place tie
with the San Francisco Forty
Miners, who pushed the de-
Tending champion Baltimore
Colts into fourth place in the
West with a 34-10 lacing. But
Detroit took the bowl spot au-
tomatically on q point basis
because 1t scored more points
than the Forty Miners in split

Francisco won the first game,
14-10, and Detroit the second,
24-0.
In yesterdays only other
game, the st. Louis Cardinals
took fourth place in the East
with a 38-7 rout Of the Pitts

The Browns, beaten six con-
secutive times by the Giants,
shook off the jinx when Line

Charlie Conerly lateral and
raced 20 yards for a touch-
down to erase a 1923 New
York lead. Conerly threw three
touchdown passes for the
Giants before he was injured

Plum, who had had only one

Fairbanks School Bus Case Taken to High State Court

JUNEAU, lR - The State has asked the Alaska Supreme Court to reverse a U. s. District Court ruling in a school bus case at Fairbanks.
 The appeal was filed by the Attorney Generals office on be- half of the State Board of Edu- cation and the State Commission CT of Education.
 The action was based on a Feb. l9 ruling by former Judge Vernon Forbes, in case originally brought by Fairbanks couple on behalf of their daughter and other hil dren attending parochial schools.
 Judge Forbes held that state law requiring transportation of private school pupils on public , school buses along established routes was not in violation of the Constitutin.
 The Attorney Generals office said the appeal was not based on the constitutional issue, but rather on an interpretation of a Depart ment of Education directive in- volving transportation of young sters who live within mile and half of school.
 The original case was filed in January, 1859, by Lawrence and Loyola Quinton on behalf of their daughter, Judy Kay, a pupil at Immaculate Conception School at Fairbanks.
 Judge Forbes ruled in their fa- vor against the Fairbanks School District, the State Board of Edu- cation and the commissioner. The State appeal from Forbes rulings was made only for the education board and the state commissioner The local school board was not involved.

Federal Judge Let's Removes Himself From Hearing Hoffa Custer Case

WASHINGTON, R - U. S. Dist Judge F. Dickinson Let's today disqualified himself to hear a suit seeking the custer of James R. Hoffa as president of the Team sters Union.
 Judge Let's decided to stand aside because of a sworn state ment filed by Hoffa accusing him of bias and prejudice. The judge said he did so with no thought or intention of admit ting the truth of the affidavit or any part thereof" Let's sent the case to Chief Judge David A. Fine for assign ment to another judge.
 The custer proceeding against Hoffa is civil action, involving no criminal charges. When court convened, a haf-dozen moves by Hoffa to block or delay the case were pending.
 Hoffa told newsmen he had no comment on Let's stepping aside as trial judge, but one Teamsters official said "There goes about 90 per cent of the case against Hoffa."
 Let's explained that while he was disqualifying himself as trial judge he was retaining control over the supervision of the Team sters Union membership.

No Farm Revolt

:. One Of the significant things that
did not happen last Tuesday was
revolt" of the Farm States against, the
Republican Party. There was no SYM
bolic, voting-booth lynching of Ezra
Taft Benson, Secretary Of Agriculture
throughout two EiSenhower-Nixo ad-
minstrations, despite a long and con-
stant drumfire of Democratic criticism
of G.. o. P. farm policies.
Among seven States considered as
making up the Farm Belt-North Da-
kota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas,
Iowa, wisconsin and MinneSota-only
the latter delivered its electoral vote to
the Democratic ticket, and that by
narrow margin that could be attributed
to Democratic Senator Humphreys.
much larger edge in his reelection VIC
tory. Three well-known Democratic
Governors went down to defeat-Free-
man in Minnesota, Docking in Kansas
and LoveleSS running for a Senate seat
in Iowa.
From the time of his nomination,
Senator Kennedy made it clear that his
strategy in the Farm States included
perSistently linked Vice President Nixon
to Mr.. Benson and the latterS policies.
Even Mr.. Nixon appeared to lend himself
to belief that identification with the
Benson approach to the farm problem
would be politically dangerous. He pro-
posed new leadership" and a new
massive program" for dealing with the
problem. In due course, both candidates
made major presentations of new
formulas for helping the farmers.
The results make it obvious, first Of
all, that the Kennedy plan won no in
dorsement from the farmers themselves.
As between the two, the farmers appar-
emily like the Nixon formula better.
At the same time, their adherence to
what has been their normal preference
for Republican administration dis
putes prediction claims of deep dissat-
isfaction with eight years of life with
Mr.. Benson and his efforts to solve a
problem Of long standing. Mr.. Benson
himself had quietly and Stoutly main
tanned that reports of his unpopularity,
like the premature word on Mark
Twain'S death, were greatly exagger-
ated." 1t appears that he was correct.
In couple of months, the problem
will be handed on to somebody else
just as 1t was handed to Mr.. Benson
nearly eight years ago. There is small
reason to think and less reason to
hope that it will not be calling for new
major pronouncementS in the campaign

Let's Get Rid of It

AS the 1860 presidential election
goes into history, Senator Mike Mans
field is reviving the proposal to abolish
or reform the electoral college. We think
he is right. This antiquated formula
for choosing President, so far as it
bears any relation to its original pur-
pose, is as dead as the dodo. It ought
TO be junked or radically overhauled.
The delegates to the constitutional
convention settled on the electoral COL
'ege system as compromise, designed
% secure Small-State acceptance Of the
Constitution. Except in the very early
days, 1t has never functioned Satisfac-
torily and it has been patched up or
worked over on several occasions.
Even today, two dangers posed by
the system remain very much alive. One
is that presidential contest might be
thrown into the House of Representa-
tives for final decision. The other is
that candidate might be chosen Pres
ident by the electoral college even
though he received fewer " votes
than his opponent, thereby defeating
the recorded will of the voters.
AAo1 IAlelc 10 uo SOOO VI persuasive
reason to retain this anachroniSm is
shown by facts set forth in an article
by j. A. OLeary which appears else
where in today's Star The electoral
college has outlived its usefulness. At
best, it is cumbersome and unwieldly. At
worst, 1t tends to debase our electoral
process and it could operate to defeat
