State Dept. May
Reopen Alcan
Negotiations
SEATTLE, (/P)—The state de
partment has expressed willing
ness to resume negotiations on use
of the Canadian section of the
Alaska highway by American
truckers, Sen. Warren G. Magnu
son announced here Saturday.
Magnuson previousyl had asked
the state department to investi
gate reports the Canadian govern
ment was refusing to permit “in
bond” truck shipments between
the United States and Alaska over
the highway.
A telegram received in reply
from Dean Acheson, assistant sec
retary of state, said in part:
“The department’s view that
the existing agreement provides
for in-bond trucking over the
Alaska highway was brought in
formally to the Canadian govern
ment. ... If you would kindly
furnish details of your informa
tion that our truckers have been
denied in-bond privileges, the de
partment would gladly renew
representations immediately. The
department has no reason to doubt
Canadian committments will be
honored in all respects.”
Magnuson has protested to the
state department that the highway
which cost American taxpayers
155 million dollars, would be
commercially useless to Alaska
if in-bond truck shipments were
barred.

Football Roundup
(By JOE REICHLER)
New YORK, (/P) — Army and
Notre Dame, still immune to the
"upset epidemic,” led the parade
today as the college football cam
paign headed into its final month.
With UJLA, Pennsylvania, Geor
gia and Harvard they remained
the only undefeated, untied major
elevens.
A: my made it 24 straight wuh a
19-0 win over a stubborn Duke
team; Notre Dame cracked its
Iowa jinx by blasting the Hawk
eyes 41-6; powerful Penn rolled
over Navy 32-19; UCLA’s Bruins
moved a step nearer to the Rose
bowl with a 33-7 romp over Santa
Clara; Georgia pulverized Furman
70-7 and Harvard squeezed by
Holy Cross 13-6.
Three teams—Texas, Tennessee
and North Carolina State—'boast
ing untarnished records up to las*
Saturday, fell by the wayside.
Northwestern, Oregon and North
Carolina U., each tied once, re
mained unbeaten.
Unless they are bitten by the
upset bug next week, Army and
Notre Dame will present spotless
slates when they meet at the Yan-1
kee Stadium Nov, 9. Each enjoys
a comparative breather next Sat
urday, the West Pointers tuning
up with twice-beaten West Vir
ginia and the Ramblers engaging
the below-standard Navy Mid
shipmen,’, who have dropped four
in a row since their opening game
triumph. Army has won six games
and Notre Dame four.
The pigskin spotlight next week
will center on the South where the
Georgia Bulldogs take on Ala
bama. Georgia Tech tangles with
the Duke team, and Tennessee
will attempt to hang the first de
feat on North Carolina. Rice and
Texas A. & M., tied for the con
ference lead, take on Texas Tech
and Arkansas respectively. Texas
