WHICH COLLEGE FOOTBALL teams will be the best
in the country? That's always tough question, and
to complicate matters this year, college football will
be changed game because it is borrowing many of
the best parts of professional football. This is
fair exchange because the pros have borrowed from
colleges through the years.
This new look doesn't mean that the Green Bay
Packers will be playing for my University of Alabama
team - though the thought sure is pleasant. 1t
does mean that the colleges are doing faceIfting
job on their plays, formations and strategy.
In short, you will see college teams play more
wide-open football this year. They will gamble much
more, not because it is sounder football - it isn't -
but because each coach realizes he must take risks
to keep up with the opposition.
Before outline these trends want to point
out the differences between college and pro football
They really are different games.
More big plays, more scoring
Professional football is business. Like any
other business, its purpose is to make money, and
to make money it must provide constant entertain
ment. That means heavy emphasis on the ofense -
more spectacular plays, more scoring, much more
passing.
Under these circumstances, it is no surprise
that defense takes a back seat. Technically, that
doesn't make for better football but the pros know
that few people will pay SIS seat to watch them
play 90 game.
So the pros play gambling football. They use

A stormy Agriculture figure
in the Billie Sol Estes case goes
before Senate investigators to-
day for the second time with
the feeling that his testimony
viii show that the Pecos CTexO
operator received favored treat
ment in his cotton deals.
N. Battle Hales, whose tes-
timony last week was punctu-
ated with charges that he was
running off at tangents, said
in an interview he would stick
strictly to the point in his Sec
ond appearance before the SEN
ate Investigations Subcommit-
tee.
Mr.. Hales said his testimony
last week, despite what he ad-
mitted was an unfavorable inn
preston. failed to assail his
main thesis.
This was: The Agriculture
Departments handling of the
Estes case was taken out of
normal channels; that Estes
received favored treatment;
that his charges, if carefully
considered, will be supported by
what two other major witnesses
have told the subcommittee.
The point he said he was
making was that Agriculture
Department officials decided
long before the Estes 1851 cot
ton allotmentS were Cancelled
that no penalty would be as
sessed against him.
Mr.. Hales said this was
borne out by the testimony be-
fore the subcommittee by Un-
dersecretary of Agriculture
Charles s. Murphy and by
Emery E. (Red) Jacobs, a for
mer high official in the de-
partment. Mr.. Jacobs was

Admiral Lawrence suggested
that unions assist minority
groups and help stamp out in
equality in Government, pre-
pare members for retirement,
become more active in united
fund drives, help management
in promoting on-the-job safety
programs, aid in Government
recruiting and training of en-

Government employe unions to

their groups.
"MalcontentS Improperly dis
ciplined by employe organiza-
tions can be bad apples to

miral Lawrence said.
Admiral Lawrence said the
Navy welcomed It's relations
with the Government employe
unions because it benefits
management by receiving pro-
gressive ideas and suggestions
and by aiding employe morale
by solving problems and griev-
ances that are brought to its
attention.
Admiral Lawrence disclosed
that Navy lacks sufficiently
trained engineers and scien-
fists; experienced clerks. pro-
curement personnel and con-
tractual experts in some areas,
as well as trained mechanics.

rector of Treasure Department,
