Playing Football
For Pay Is O.K.
WASHINGTON, (£»> — Byron
<Whizzer> White says he can’t see
why it’s wrong to play college
football for pay if that’s the only
way you can get an education.
“You must ask yourself,” he
told members of the ^snington i
Touchdown club yesterday, “what
might have happened to these
boys had they not had the oppor
binity to come to college and pay
their way with football.
“And they’ll have to prove to
me that these players are being
hurt by the system before I’ll con
■dernn it.”
The Whizzer, one of the more
learned muscle men of our time,
came out of Colorado University
with a Phi Beta Kappa key and a
Rhodes scholarchio a foot
ball career which made him aa
all-America halfoack in i9j<.
He had a whirl at the pro game
before turning to the study of law

laims, end on the Rice University
football team, injured his ankle in
practice a week ago. It didn t look
like he would play against Texas.
But he stayed with the team’s
trainer for hours on Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday, determined
to play. He achieved his objective
in such startling fashion that to
day he was selected as the “line

LT. MORGAN RETURNS
TO ACTIVE SERVICE
Lt. Stanley Morgan has been
recalled to active duty and will
be stationed in Nome. He retired
early this year after having served
in various parts of northern Alas
ka from Point Barrow to Nome,
for the past twenty years. Due to
the fact that the ACS needed a
man with his experience and
knowledge of the peculiarities of
the country, he has been recalled.
It looks natural to see him in uni
form again.
The exact date of the birth of
Columbus is uncertain.

Flight Of B-29’8
Would Be
“Sword Rattling”
I
—
By BRAHAM HOVEY
WASHINGTON, (tf”)—Secretary'
,r State Byrnes today sought the
i. wer to this ticklish question
tossed at him by the war depart- '
ment: Should he approve a round
the-world flight by a fleet of army
3-29 Superforts?
State department officials re
gard the problem as delicate for
several reasons.
F rst: They say the army air
forces put Brynes on the spot by
announcing October 8 — without
consulting the state department—
j that eight to 24 of the big bombprs!
j would make the flight “if the
state department approves.”
Actually, the formal request for
permission to carry out the pro
ject reached Byrnes’ desk only
late yesterday.
Then, some department officials
believe that since the end of the
war, both the army and navy on
occasion have attempted to edge i
into state’s field of charting Amer
ican foreign policy. They regard
the project as the latest of these
attempts.
In this connection, there is a
strong desire by many high-level
statement department officials to
avoid any act that could be called
‘‘sword rattling”. They believe
any large demonstrations of
American military might could be
exploited—particularly by Russia
—to discredit this country’s mo
tives in international dealings.
Sgt.—The gal in the red dress,
is that your flame?
Cpl.—Yes, Why?
Sgt.—I just 9aw her holding a
fire drill on the porch, with an
other corporal.
Harry—I never saw you chew
gum before.
Jerry—No, I just picked it up
recently.
