May 15. Chairman Andrew May,
Democrat of Kentucky, of the

feel it is important for eighteen
year olds to continue their educa

“Maybe all they need to do is
make the webbing on the baskets
longer so the ball wouldn’t drop
so quickly,” he says. “At least that
would give time to see who scor
ed. As it is now basketball is just
a scramble, runing up and down
the floor and shooting. If a team
is hot, it wins, but the coach does
not have much to do with it. He’s
just a trainer now.” . . . Ray cites

Don't Want Nazis
Branded “War
Criminals”
NUERNBERG, Mar. 1, </P)—A
defense utorney, pleading for dis
missal of war crimes charges
against six indicted Nazi groups,
warned today that millions of
Germans would turn back to Naz
ism if they are branded as war
criminals for their membership in
the organization.
“There is hardly one family in
a notable example of a pro team
leading by five points and having
possession of the ball with 17 sec
onds to go. It still managed to
lose the game. . . . “When I saw
that, I knew I’d seen everything,”
asys Ray.
this country whose relatives were
not connected with one of these,
organizations,” said Dr. Martin"
Loeffler, attorney for Hitler’s or
iginal brown shirted street fight
ers.
"If they find themselves brand
ed and ostracized, the effect would
be the opposite of that we hoped
for,” he told the international
military tribunal.
Many of the 21 individual de
fendants in the prisoners’ box
glared at Loeffler as he declared
that condemnation of the organ
izations would enable the Nazi
lenders to "conceal themselves be
hind the backs of millions.” ^
Many of the SA’s 4,000,000
members, he said, were just as
ignorant of Nazi war aims as were
foreign powers.
Man is the newest of all the ani
mals.
