Korndorff, of the Federal Shipbuiling Company, about the Mead commillee's investigation of the cost of the ceremonies with which cargo vessels, such as Liberties and Victories, and men of war, such as destroyers and cruisers, were launched during the war. I doubt that much can be made of this and tend, to suspect that it is a diversion intended to direct attention to a mock scuffle at the far end of the car while the fellow who has just lifled Ihc lealher out of the victim flask pocket slides out the door and up the subway These ceremonies are a Iradition of the nip-building trade and both Kaiser and Korndorff say not only that their companies paid the expenses out of profit but that the parties became more and more bleak until, when production was really rolling, they were just litlle nip-ups and a nuisance, at that The aulomobile and kindred in- duslries weren't called on lo drape bunting over a pine scaffold and take time out for speeches and chicken saiad every time a jeep or a tanK came on' the line but the ship-builder were sluck with an old custom which still was honored by the Maritime Commission and the navy for purposes of lhat ex Porkers Start Grid Practice Today Fayctteville, Sept. Football practice got under way at the University of Arkansas today with Head Coach John (Barnie) Barnhill wishing that hot weather would return. "We won't get as much done, perhaps, if it gets hot again," Barnie commented, "but the boys could get into shape better." The Razorback mentor also pointed out that it would be "pretty warm' 'in Forl Worth early next month when his charges meet their first Southwest Conference foe, Texas Christian University. "I'd just as soon they'd be used to it hot by then," he added.

Nearly 100 candidates were to participate in the two workouts today, but Barnhill plans to cut his squad to 55 men as soon as possible. Players relegated to the squad will work under Assistant Coach Clyde Van Sickle. Assisting "Barnie" with the varsity are assistants George Cole, Deke Bracket and Hobart Hooser. End Coach Bill Barnes, who underwent an emergency appendectomy last week not expected to appear on the practice iield until next week. pensive phantom called Old Henry says the "morale." Maritime Commission selected some of the sponsors, who invariably are ladies, and that his company naturally was expected to pay their freight from home to home, usually double, because each lady sponsor was allowed to pick a matron of honor to travel with her, and put them up at the best available hotel quarters.

HAUL, Owner 208 N. Fergmen Phone 76 Thurman Arnold and I am not trying to explain how il could be that the Marilirne Commission selected so many and the Slate Deparlmenl picked a lot and still Henry, himself, preferred lo recognize ladies aclually employed in the shipyards who had had something lo do wilh the creation of the ships they launched. I am not faulling him like a dislrict atlorney. He just isn't exact The Slate Deparlmenl horned in when Ihe ships being launched were named for defunct foreign polilicians or slatesmen of our gal- lanl Allies or for heroic cities under Ihe iron heel. Some vessels were named for American colleges and a few bore Ihe names of young Americans who had been killed in Ihe war whose mothers or wives were invited to chrislen them.

Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt chris- lened one of Henry's carriers Ihe Casablanca, which, as he didn't neglccl lo add, did "such fine service," but she arrived al Vancouver, by plane and left by plane and Kaiser didn't pay her way but jusl gave her the sland- ard silver Iray.

There was one launching of a ship for a foreign government sponsor got a gift of jewelry bul Henry said they laler "with- dre wlhe presenl" and rushed on lo say Ihcy didn't want cocktail parties or any liquor at all al his yards and it's my fault thai I didn'l corner him and make him say whelhcr hey threw her down and ripped off the diamond pin or necklace or whatever it was.

But you Iry il once and you will agree that it is a feat lo get Iwo conseculive words on any subjecl, or even one, oul of Henry Kaiser. Henry louchcd on the sallow social reputation his launching parlies which I got wind of in San Francisco where kind friends told me to duck Ihcm as they were generally all choir singing by Ihc lappy workers and inspirational speeches while I knew all about he union rackets and the angry disconlcnt of Ihc good old common man behind his happy, shining So now I guess he understands why I couldn't make it over Iherc Ihc lime he asked me al Ihc peace conference. He got a fee of $30,000 each on liberties plus bonus for speed and- economics in cost and his atlitude is lhat if he shot a few nickels of his own company's money for silver trays and orchids lhal is his affair so please mind your own business if you would be so kind. Mr. Korodorff says Ihc cuslom of giving presents to sponsors goes back lo Helen of Troy, who must have had a large trophy room, bul lhal, remembering quile a fuss aboul Ihc same thing after Ihe firsl war, Ihc builders were more con- scrvalivc this lime.

Although Henry makes quite a virtue of Ihe facl that a person could have choked to death for lack of a drink at his parlies, Korndorff said federal served no liquor cither because everyone knows that knocks hell out of a whole day and, moreover, if pco Mobile dcfealed Nashville, 5-4, in a 12-inning firsl game and was leading 2-1 at Ihc end of Ihe fourth inning when the second game was called because of darkness. Homer Malney's single in the 12lh scored George Spears in the opener wilh the winning run. At Lillle Rock, a big inning in each game turned the trick for the Crackers.

They colleclcd all four of their firsl-game runs in the fiflh inning and rcgislcred six in Ihe fourlh inning of Ihe nighlcap. Allanla's Bill Goodman hil a homer wiln one aboard in the sixth inning of the second game.

In the otner semi-final, defending champion Willie McCrotty of Little Rock met Charles Woodard, Magnolia.
