“College Sports
Militarize Youth,”
Says Red Paper
* MOSCOW, t/P)— The newspaper
Sovie Sport said Saturday that
American college sports “are in
the service of American reaction
aries’’ who aim to militarize Amer
ican youth.
The article, a double by-line
story by A. Isyanov and V. Park
hitko, said competitions between
university teams in the United
States are arranged by business
men for profit.
The writers said Negroes are
not permitted to compete in sports
in white universities. They com
mented that Yale’s football cap
tain, Ned Johnson, is paid for
winding an electric university
clock.
(Yale’s football captain is named
Levi Jackson and he is the Negro
captain of a football team at what
Moscow presumably would call a
“white” university.)
The article declared some ath
letes do not have to attend uni
versity classes and in many cases
they cannot even sign their own
names.
It singles out Columbia univers
ity for mention, as specializing in
the training of football stars.
(Coach Lou Little undoubtedly
will be surprised to hear this,
^ since his Columbia football team
this year has won only two games
and has lost five).
Maybe the reason that older
people are quiet is because they
have a lot more to be quiet about.

Catholic Hierarchy
Call* For Family
Stability and Peace
J
WASHINGTON, (A3)—A call to
the world for restoration of “the
virtues and practices guarantee
ing family stability and peace”
went out today from the Roman
Catholic hierarchy of the United
States.
In a joint statement, more than
150 bishops, archbishops and car
dinals said the stability of family
life is threatened by “countless
acts and agencies” and faces “a
present danger more fearsome
than the atom bomb.”
The statement as issued at the
close of the annual meeting here
of the Catholic board of bishops,
whose membership includes the
four United States cardinals.
Worldly practices which are
tending to disrupt home life, the
bishops said, include: widespread
prevalence of divorce and multi
ple marriages, planned parent:
hood “by use of unnatural and
morally degrading means,” and
inadequate legislation for “suit
able housing, decent material fac-1
ilities, security in income and
prospects.”
Hong Kong, supposedly for a hos
pital checkup.
The two leaders have had many
differences since Li took over the
presidency last January whenChi
ang “retired.” Out of these devel
oped a split over conduct of the
civil war against the communists.
Fresh demands in Washington
that the United States use force
against the Chinese communists
drew only an official silence at
the state department.
The demands are prompted by
the imprisonment at Mukden of an
American consul, Angus Ward. He
and four members of his staff
have been held since October 24.
on charges of having beaten a
Chinese employee.
The turbulent little nation of
Panama switched presidents over
the week end in a bloodless revolt
staged by police force leaders.
Daniel Chanis, president less
than four months, resigned after
police surrounded his palace. Vice
President Roberto F. Criari was!
sworn in as President on Sunday
morning.
Chanis was ousted because he
tried to fire police chief Jose Re
mon and two of his top aides. In- i
stead of resigning, Remon called
out his police — Panama’s only;
armed force—and sealed off the
Presidential palace.
In stormy Colombia, anonymous
leaflets were scattered in Bogota j
urging rebellion and sabotage toj
hinder the Nov. 27 Presidential J
election.
Conservative L/aureano Gomez
is the only candidate for the Pres
idency.

Gas Well Blows In
On Lulu Island
■ - - -
VANCOUVER, B. C. (/P> — A
natural gas well blew in on Lulu
Island Friday—the first producer
in the lower mainland area.
The well, with an estimated ca
pacity of 500,000 cubic feet, is lo
cated on the farm of Tom Brooke,
who has been drilling around the
area since he first noticed gas
seepages last spring.
Oil slicks in the gas pool may
prove the presence of oil.
Dr. Colin Heater Crickman, Cal
gary, Alta., geologist hired by
Brooke to sink the main hole, said
the find is “bigger than anything
in the past.
“Prospects have been good at
times, but usually petered out.”
he said.
Mr. Brooke has already been
using gas found on his land.
“I sank a 17-foot hole 10 years
ago and I piped it into the house
fo rdomestic use. It’s good, 100
per-cent natural gas,” he said.
The well is the only known gas
producer in the lower mainland
area.
Officials of the Durland Drilling
Company which handled the oper
ation, said they were “more than
satisfied” and termed it the best
strike they have made in the pro
vince so far. They plan to drill
deeper this week.
The estimated capacity of 500,
000 cubic feet compares to the Al
berta Leduc gas field capacity of
24,000,000 cubic feet.
Admiral Says
Crommelin Case
“Is (Hosed*’
WASHINGTON, f/P) — A -miral
Forrest Sherman, chief o: naval
operations, said Saturday !h«v. the
case of Capt. John Cremme m is
“closed.”
Officers said that means the
reprimand administered t the
fiery air officer stands, and he
does not get the court martial he
has demanded.
The case grew out of Cremmel
in’s unauthorized disclosure of
navy documents relating to the
controversy over the air force’s
B-36 bomber.
Sherman’s office told reporters
that in the original letter ol repri
mand Capt Crommelin was given
an opportunity to reply and “he
has made that reply.”
That closes the case, it was said.
In his reply, made public Fri
day. Crommelin put the navy on
the spot with new charges that
, Pentagon “zealots” with a "lust for
power” have clamped naz.-fype
controls over the defense depart
ment.
The 48-vear-old war hero nsist
I ed Friday that either the repri
mand should be erased from his
I otherwise sparkling record or he
; should be allowed to explain his
actions in a court martial.
That was in a letter to Admiral
P. Sherman, the new chief of na
val operations, who gave Crom
j melin a public spanking Nov. 10.
