played a professional hockey game
Saturday afternoon, an amateur
game night and another pro game
Sunday. . . And two of his appear-
ances were for Montreal clubs vis-
iting Boston, although Terry Is the

I Explanation is that Terry had been
j "loaned" to the Cadadlens because
| he couldn’t get permission to leave
Canada. Then, when he was
about to enter the Army, he was
allowed a final fling across the
border and to show his apprecia-

WASHINGTON. Dec. 17—0P>—
A move in the next union to break
up the spreading organization of
the Reconstruction Finance Cor-
poration and make some of Ito
subsldarles separate agencies di-
rectly responsible to Congress was
predicted today by Senator Taft
(R—Ohio )
The RFC. largest government fin-
ancial agency outalde the treasury,
expects to renew a request for *5,-
000,000.000 additional borrowing
authority which went unfilled by
the 77th Congress because of a con- t
troversy over the method by which
the Board of Economic Warfare ob-
tains funds from the RPC.
Taft told reporters that when
this question came up again he had
no doubt a move would be mrfde to
take such agencies as the BEW out
of the RFC's sphere, clothe them
with statutory instead of executive
order, and require them to obtain
appropriations dlrectely from Con-
gress.
"Some of these organizations arc
doing tilings Congress never dream- I
ed about when it first authorized
the establishment of the RFC,"
Taft said. "I think there ought to
be an intermediate audits of the
accounts and that each corporation
doing a separate line of business
ought to be accountable to Con-
gress.”
Senator Danaher (R—Conn) said
he favored establishing the BEW on
a statutory basis so that it would
I finance its worldwide programs of
In the days of Queen Elizabeth, 1 developing, producing and purchas-
Engllshmen were required by law tng war materials with direct Ap-
propriations from Congress, instead
of drawing the funds from RPC
through directives authorized oy

NEW YORK. Dml 17-VP)—Th
keeping with that recently-revied
idea of splitting the major baseball
leagues into Eastern and Western
groups, this corner offers a simple
(and no crapka, now) solution to
the manpower shortage in sports.
... It’s merely to use fewer play-
ors on a side . . Before you start
giggling, remember that football
started out with 25 men on a side,
eventually was reduced to 11 and
they say this six-man football play-
ed by schools that can's muster full
teams Isn't bad at all Hockey
used to be a seven-man game
and old-timers say it was Improved
by elimination of the "Rover”. . .
Basketball tried seven, eight and
I nine-man teams before settling on
five and a few years ago Lacrosse
■ teams were whittled from 12 to 10
men . . Of course, there might be
a question as to how many fans
would shell out 83.30 to see six-man
football or a buck for baseball
without shortstope, but, heck, ain't
this wartime?
Huffman of Eagle Pam declared
"With two-thirds of the elected
House members already pledged to
his campaign. I predict Price Dan-
iel will receive the largest major-
ity ever given a speaker candidate

Huffman, added that in addition
to 100 firet choice pledges the Dan-
iel forces also iield 32 second choice

len is a candidate for re-election

Deception vs. Power.
That might be called the issue
when Amarillo plays Sunset of Dal-
las and Austin meets Breckenridge
in the state schoolboy football
semifinals
Amarillo and Breckenridge are ;
the power boys—big lipes with fast-
moving. hard-charging backs who
often get their yardage the hard
way. right through the middle
Sunset and Austin like deception
—quick-openers, flat passes when ,
you least expect them, laterals and :
fake spinners.
The games will be played
Breckenridge and Dallas and will
start at 2:30 p. m.
Amari fin cleared what many be-
lieved to be its worst hurdle for a
fifth state championship when it
beat Wichita Falls 6-0 in the bi-
district playoff But the big Sand-
storm line pushed the Coyotes all
over the field and repulsed every
scoring threat
Breckenridge, employing a pow-
erful running game operating
from the T-formation, hurls its
giant tfaek, Capt John Ray, into
the opposing line and the line
usually gives
Austin's tricky aggregation close-
ly resembles the great University of
Texas team of 1941
Its offense is likely to explode fro n
anywhere on the field.
