Associate Editor 'Power Strikers Reject Arbitration' Johnny Rauch Tosses Four Scoring Passes In Rout of Tigers By F. M. WILLIAMS Constitution Sports Writer. SANFORD STADIUM, ATHENS, Sept. 27 With Quarterback Johnny Rauch sharpshooting four touchdown passes, the Georgia Bulldogs overcame a fighting band of Clemson Tigers to mark up a 35-12 victory in their opening game here tonight.

Georgia, after a slow start which saw a scoreless first quarter, came to life in the second quarter, although its lead midway in the second quarter was only 7 to 6. After Rauch got the range, twice to Halfback John Donaldson, once to Reid Moscly, once to Rabbit Smith, and Eli Maricich scored anothe. by ground, it was Georgia's ball game. 7 i If by this they mean they did not always get what was asked, the answer is not sound. If it is meant that too often the arbitration itself was stacked against them, the answer would be that there were undoubtedly instances of such stacking.

But today, with the rights of labor clearly defined by law, with new attitudes in existence, it is no longer true to say that carefully established arbitration is not fair and in keeping with the American belief in fair play. Unless there is a willingness to give and take in argument there cannot be any such thing as negotiations or collective bargaining. Refusal of the Pittsburgh strikers to accept arbitration indicates they themselves do not believe in the fairness or soundness of their own demands. An Associated Press dispatch from Pittsburgh reports that striking power workers have rejected arbitration. There have been other recent instances of refusal to resort to what is, or can and should be, the Arnerican way of settling strikes when the parties negotiating cannot reach an egreement.

If either management or labor resorts to defiant decisions and refuses to move from them, the country and its economy will be driven into a state of anarchy. What is wrong with the use of arbitration? Some members of Labor reply that the arbitrators are too greatly influenced by industry. That need not be if the proper selection is made. Others reply that in the past arbitration resulted badly. 9 To Develop Southern Resources IFsBice Tene i aw our own potentialities here at home.

It is this situation which the Southern Association of Science and Industry intends to correct. "When fully organized," declares its prospectus, "it will begin the execution of an elaborate program to effect the scientific utilization of Southern raw materials and their manufacture in the South to ished product stage. "This program includes educational opportunities for all the South equal to those offered anywhere else in the nation. It proposes to harness the South's scientists to develop new finished products from Southern agriculture and mineral resources and enroll Southern manufacturers to make these products in the South. "The program calls for the employment of the graduates of Southern institutions within the South, so that the best educated and most talented of Southern youth may stay and aid in building the new Southern economy." It is a commendable program and should have the co-operative support of every Southern community.

Too long have we neglected our resources both natural and human. The Southern Association of Science and Industry, an organization of technical and business leaders, is launching a Dixie-wide program to promote processing of Southern raw materials here in the South. For the past five years, the Association has been conducting surveys and experiments to provide an inventory of Southern resources from which those interested in the industrial development of the South can work. These studies will soon be published and made available to the general public. Meanwhile, the organization has launched another phase of its program, that of encouraging talented native sons to remain in the South and participate in its development.

This is an undertaking long needed. For years the South has been exporting too great a percentage of its youth. For years young men of talent and ability have been leaving the South by the thousands for areas where opportunity seemed more abundant. For years the South has taxed itself to educate young men and women for other sections of the nation, letting them go elsewhere for want of initiative to develop By JOHNNY Conitltution KNOXVILLE, Sept. see will renew a football rivalry which terminated in 1911 heer tomorrow afternoon in the Southeastern Conference's top game of the day at 2:30 o'clock on Shields Watkins Field.

Hogan Leads Pro Golfers At Dallas DALLAS, Texas, Sept. 27 (JP) Ben Hogan, the nation's money-making golfer, today took the lead in the Dallas Open Championship with a sub-par 69 for a 54-hole total of 139 strokes. With only a few players still out near the end of the day's play, Hogan's early morning score of 34-35 69 stood good. The national PGA champ stroked the course yesterday in a par 70. Sharing today's honors with Hogan was Dallas' Harry Todd with 69.

Lloyd Mangrum, National Open champion, finished with a par 70 for a 144 total, followed by Amateur Earl Stewart, of Dallas, whose one-under-69 gave him 145 for the two rounds.

Benson, who prayed for a Dodger championship from the steps of Brooklyn Borough Hall earlier this week, said he -would board a plane at La-Guardia Airport as "Them Bums" begin their next to last game "leading many fervent prayers for the boys." ry AT BRADBERRY, Sports Editor. 27 Georgia Tech and Tennes by Bobby Dodd, of Tech, against the season for both teams. It will be the first time a Ney-land-coached eleven has faced a club coached by one of his former players and the first Neyland-coached Tennessee team in five years. 4 An interesting battle is expected, with the Vols rated a seven-point favorite by the boys who make their living rating football games. The game would be figured even if Tech was in good physical shape.

But with Frank Broyles, Dodd's ace quarterback, on the ailing list and counted on to play only two or three minutes at a time, the Yellow Jackets' hopes for victory are mucn lower than they were when practice started on Sept. 1. In addition to Broyles, Alex Williams, hard-hitting freshman fullback, is definitely out of the game and minor injuries have cut the capabilities of six other Jacket regulars. On the other hand, the Vols are in good shape for the battle with only George Kelley, one of Ney-land's five freshman centers, and Ermal Howard, reserve guard, on the injured list. Neyland is loaded with manpower and is expected to use the two-team system against the Yellow Jackets, the first and second elevens playing alternate quarters.

This is expected to be the telling factor in the game as Tech is weak on reserve strength. The Vol team this year is unique in one respect in that it is the biggest ever developed by Neyland. The backfield averages about 195 pounds and the line over 200. Tech's greatest hope for victory lies in the fact that Neyland has played only twice against T-for-mation offenses and lost both times, first to Boston College in the 1941 Sugar Bowl and secondly when his service all-stars lost to the Chicago Bears in 1942. With this in mind, the Yellow Jackets hope to organize a consistent running attack against the usually tough defense of PROBABLE LINE-UPS GA.

The Poets gained 173 yards rushing while the Cadets moved for 103. Bank failures in the United States seem a thing of the past. For the first time in three-quarters of a century, there were none last year.

Times being what they are, there seems, of course, no excuse for bank failures. But banks have failed before in prosperous years, plenty of them. That they did not in 1945 must be attributed, in at least some measure, to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the eldest and one of the most successful of the New Deal's offsprings. Even the 'most bitter of the critics of Franklin Roosevelt have long since con ceded that the system guaranteeing the safety of a depositor's funds is a good one. Collecting negligible assessments on deposits from all its member banks, the FDIC now boasts of almost a billion-dollar capital, and it will return 239 million dollars to the Treasury, advanced to it in the '30s by Congress.

There were 92 million accounts insured by 1945, 96 percent of them completely covered by the FDIC, which guarantees deposits up to $5,000. This is the finest example' of "freedom from fear" in our democracy, for confidence is beyond monetary evaluation. for three and Bray went up the middle for four.

THE PULSE OF THE BabeZaharias, Sherman Gain Tulsa Finals By SKIPPER PATRICK TULSA, Sept. 27 Hard-hitting Babe Didrikson Za-harias, Denver, and tall, graceful-swinging Mrs.

Clara Sherman, Pasadena, advanced to the championship final of the National Women's- Golf Tournament with spectacular semifinal victories today. Mrs. Zaharias eliminated fiery Helen Sigel, of Philadelphia, 3 and 2, while Mrs. Sherman defeated cetite Mrs. Bettv Mims White, Dallas, Texas, 8 and 7.

Mrs. Sherman, who will rrleet Mrs. Zaharias in a 36-hole duel tomorrow for the first women's national title since 1941, worked smoothly in eliminating Mrs. White.

Cedartown Wins Over Trion, 43-7 TRION, Sept. 27 Cedartown's blue-shirted lads took a game Trion High School team into camp here tonight, 43 to 7. Scoring almost at will, Cedar-town was sparked by the running of Mullen, Beck and Hunt, who ripped off long gains and tore the Trion defense to shreds. Mullen provided the most spectacular play of the game when he ripped off tackle and galloped 88 yards for a tally late in the third period. Trion's outstanding gridman was 14-year-old Leon Hardiman, freshman fullback, who proved to be a thorn in the side of the visitors.

William's article in the "Pulse of the Public" under the heading of "Court Right" is indeed timely. Some of the daily papers have led us to believe Georgia is the only State that uses the county unit system. I am glad to know that at least one of the other 47 States, Maryland, had been wise enough to keep control of its politics properly distributed among its best people rather than sell out to any group of gangsters in any congested area. Any of the disgruntled defeated candidates who are unwilling to abide by the rules of the election primary to which they subscribed on entering uic race snouia move to Russia and help Joe Stalin put over his program of Communism. We are too much enslaved now by bureaucratic, centralized dictatorship.

Let's put our governments, city, state and national, back in the hands of the honest people, and throw out the moneychangers. E. McJENKIN. Atlanta. Glory Be Editor Constitution: Now that Henry Wallace has been eliminated by President Truman, he can return to Iowa and think it over.

No more will he commit wholesale murder of unborn pigs or hand out scads of taxpayers' money to farmers for plowing under crops. He seems to wear the halo of a Communist. Observing this, the late President Roosevelt sidetracked him for Truman as Vice President for the' reason, according to Sister Perkins, of shoeless fame, that he, Roosevelt, was fast falling in health and that Wallace would be a dangerous man as President of our country. That the South feels deep gratification over the political passing of Wallace seems to go without saying. Glory be.

I Atlanta. Privileges Editor Constitution: Who moved that clause out of our Constitution about "equal rights to all and special privileges to none!" Hoover ignored it and gave special privileges to big money and their greed wrecked them.

Roosevelt ignored it and gave special privileges to labor and their greed is just before wrecking them. The God of heaven established property rights and the profit system and made laws to govern them. Karl Marx has proposed another system to rule the world economy. Today these two economic systems are choosing sides that will end at Armageddon. At that time the Lord Jesus Christ will return to earth and set up His kingdom and rule the nations of the earth with righteousness for 1,000 years.

Search the Scriptures and see if 'that is not true. If America today used the power she has she rould not enforce the economy God set up for the world but we must have our Wallaces and our paralyzing labor trouble so that eternal plan of God for the will be carried out. Madison. W. L.

27 The Marist, Cadets of Atlanta scored the big- gest upset of the young grid sea-J son here tonight as they complete ly outplayed a heavily-favored Lanier High eleven to win their first game of the season, 13-6. The Cadets swept to a 13-0 lead at halftime and Lanier's Poets, picked as one of the top teams in the GIAA, never quite recovered enough to overtake the battling Atlantans. In spoiling the Poets' opening game, played before a huge crowd of 9,000 amazed partisans, Marist won their first game in three starts and stamped themselves as a threat for the remainder of GIAA play. Marist scored first after George Maloof, brilliant defensive end, recovered a Lanier fumble on the Poets' 45. Burdett, whose slashing running was the spark of the Ca detS drives, smashed tO the 25 and a pass from Ed Sansbury to Maloof from the 20, was good for the score.
