HAYING RULES
IN BASKETBALL
CHANGED NOW
MINNEAPOLIS, March 29 —UP1—
The joint committee on basketball
rules has decided future college,
AAU and YMCA games should be
played in 10-minute quarters instead
of 20-minute halves.
This was the only change in the
basketball code voted by the group
which controls the playing of the
game in both the United States and
Canada. The rules committee in
cludes representatives from NCAA,
or collegiate phase of the game,
the AAU, YMCA, high schools and
of Canada.
High schools will continue playing
eight-minute quarters.
The lawmakers said the Pacific
Coast conference will play some
games under an experimental rule
which will prohibit waiving of the
free throw. All personal fouls in the
final three minutes will call for twc
shots.

NEW IDEA
IN SPORTS
ADVANCED
GLENDALE, Calif., March 30 — !
UB—The old-time manner of bally- j
hooing baseball games by announc
ers riding the streets on horseback i
may be revived in Pacific Coast!
League cities, Sports Editor Russ
Cochran of the Glendale News
Press said today.
Umpires, in fact, may be asked to
put on the act, Cochran wrote in
his column.
He said he had learned from “an
exclusive and authoritative source
that Pacific Coast League team
owners will soon be approached by
one of their clan with a plea that
clubs return to the days of parades,
bands and the era of 'Foghorn’
Murphy in an effort to get some
color back into the game and stir
up new interest on the part of the )
dwindling fans.”
Murphy was an announcer famed
for his daily appearances astride a
white horse in San Francisco years
ago. He was not an umpire.
Cochran said he thought the fans
would "get a tremendous bang out
of seeing the umps on the horses.”
He recommended that new contracts
be drawn up to force the umpires
to carry out the idea.
“Personally. I think the idea is
a great one.” Cochran wrote.
THESE DAYS
By GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY
The Price We Pay
As I w’atched these curious char
acters, Joe Adonis, Frank Costello,
Virginia Hill, pass across the tele
vision screen before the Kefauver
committee, my mind could not
avoid going back to the days of
prohibition, the jazz age, the hip
pocket flask, A1 Capone, Waxey
Gordon, Legs Diamond, and the
whole array of bootleggers, hi
jackers, rum-runners and general
scoundrels that filled our world
of the 1920’s.
And the question naturally arose
as to what price a nation pays for
its abnegation of morals and when
is the price to be collected? For
what we, the people who permit
ted the prohibition hoodlums to
rule over us did was to make pop
ular the violation of civil law; the
effect was to encourage the vio
lation of moral law.
It is an interesting phenomenon
how these go together. Prohibition
encouraged the lie, but the lie did
not stop with bathtub gin. Lying
became a way of life, just as the
pragmatic idea that anything you
could get away with was right be
came a way of life. The test of right
was not moral law, which is the
product of the whole of human ex
perience over thousands of years,
but what anybody could get away
with.
You recall all the jokes about
chastity and virginity. They were
funny, vveren t tney.' we an
laughed. But today we see the con
sequences of our laughter in the
violent increase in divorce, in teen
age crimes, in juvenile pregnancies
The sins of the fathers are hitting
the grandchildren and hitting them
hard. It is no longer a joke. It
comes right back at us in broken
homes, in disrespectful children, in
disregard of proprieties in corrup
tion in public life.
Just think of Virginia Hill’s bra
zen testimony. Where did she get
all the money she spent? From the
men she went out with. Then she
added that lots of girls get money
from the men they go out with.
We used to have a name for that
and those who pursued such a vo
cation were not encouraged to
mingle with other folks. The des

cription is Virginia Hill's not mine.
Senator Tobey, who is the moral
conscience of the committee, must
have suffered for his country when
this young lady made so light of
human decency. It was an astound
ing performance of vulgar impu
dence.
I wonder whether our people
quite grasp the foulness of all this.
We got into an argument on. this
subject in the club car of “The
Chief’ and one who was present
said that he did not believe in the
government prying into the private
affairs of its citizens, but when I
made the point that those who ar
engaged in a conspiracy to corrupt
our land can have no private af
fairs, he wondered. He could not
realize that these criminals opera
ted a dual form of government
they operating separately from the
law.
Vet, this same man would favor
investigation of Communists who
engage in conspiracy but he can
not altogether recognize how dope
peddlers could subvert a nation. It
was hard for him to realize that
an entire nation can b<f harmed,
when agencies are at work delib
erately to break down the morals
of a people. Teaching children to
take dope can, in time, produce a
body of subversive adults.
The fact is that A1 Capone’s
regime created social and political
conditions from which we n“ed now
to rescue our country. The real
harm these men did was not in
their bribing police; it was and is
in their ability to contribute to
political parties “under the table,"
as the expression goes, by this
means to participate in the choice
of candidates, even of judicial can
didates applied to national levels,
nothing could be more destructive
of our nation.
Politicians have always had to
seek funds to promote their cam
paigns, but in this situation the
evidence shows that those who ore
actually engaged in crime have
been building a super-government,
a powerful, nationwide control over
the structure of law and authority
in the United States.
It is impossible to take this situ
ation too seriously. The danger is
that it will prove a seven days’
wonder and the corruption will go
on as before. The Kefauver com
mittee should continue its investi
gation until the entire pattern is
clear.
NO WAR III IN
THREE YEARS,
SAYS STASSEN
CHICAGO, March 30 —UFI—Har
old E. Stassen said today that the
odds are against a World War in
the next three years.
The president of the University of
Pennsylvania told the Executives
Club of Chicago in a prepared
speech:
“Careful study convinces me that
if the Soviet Union starts a war to
morrow or at any time in the next
three years Bussia will be destroyed
at home by American air and
atomic strength and will face a
counter-revolution of many millions
of people now imprisoned in her
■ empire.
i “The Kremlin leaders know this,
■and therefore I place the emphasis
I on no World War in the next three
years.”

MRS. KATE SMITH IN
INTERVIEW IN HAWAII
Mrs. Kate Smith, former presi
dent of the Business and Profes
.- ional Womens’ Club who was re
cently transferred from the Juneau
office of the Alaska Native Service
to North Dakota for the Indian
Service, was the subject of the
following feature story in the Hon
olulu Advertiser:
Mrs Kate Smith holds probably
the unique distinction of having
seen both of America’s territorial
legislatures open their sessions this
year.
Mrs. Smith was in Juneou Jan
uary 24 for the opening of the Al
askan legislature, and in Honolulu
last week for the opening of the
Hawaiian legislature.
She lias just completed five years
as a social worker with the Alaska
Native Service, and is ending a
short vacation in Honolulu before
going to North Dakota where she
will be with the Indian service. She
will be at Fernhurst, the YWCA
residence for women, until March 1.
“We had no flowers, or leis, or
hula dancers at our opening,” she
laughs, “but we had plenty of snow
and ice.”
As in Hawaii, the crowd at the
opening overflowed the^gallery into
the surrounding halls. The Alaskan
legislature meets in modern quar
ters in the federal building in Ju
neau.
Mrs. Smith was especially inter
ested in the makeup of the Ha
waiian legislature both as to race

ALASKA LINE PEOPLE
ARE GOOD CUSTOMERS
Among my best customers are my fiends and neigh
bors who work for The Alaska Line here in the Terri
tory. And there’s a good reason. Last year they — and
their co-workers throughout Alaska — received over a
million dollars for providing services and supplies for
The Alaska Line. Longshoremen alone received more
than $818,000 in wages. The major part of this money
is spent right here — in the stores of hundreds of small
businessmen like me. This means more jobs . . . more
paychecks . . . more progress for all of us here in Alaska.
