time ago to make no disclosures of
any action taken until the informa
tion was officially released.
According to Dr. Pallett, the board
is appointed by the president of the
University for the purpose of mak
ing studies and recommendations to
improve or sustain athletic mat
ters. The board has no power to act
except to make recommendations
to the president, who may accept or
reject them.
The AP story, which was broad
cast over network stations and
which appeared in Tuesday after
noon papers, followed a special
meeting of the athletic board Mon
day night. Members of the board
would not reveal the exact nature
of business discussed at that time.

liberty ship as steward. A four-day
storm between the China sea and
the Philippine islands necessitated
two weeks of repairs at Guam. Fi
nally on December 8, Lacaros sailed
through the Golden Gate of San
Francisco.
During the occupation the Japan
ese confiscated all food and housing,
which resulted in a serious shortage
for the Filipinos. “We could not even
say anything,” Lacaros said in. an
interview Monday.
“We could not use our own cars
and we had to hide them,” he con
tinued. “Anyone seen using a car
was thrown in prison, and anyone
refusing to surrender his car was
beheaded.”
Province Bombed
His province was bombed by both
Japanese and American planes dur
ing the occupation. “I remember one
fight over our town between four
American planes and 16 Japanese
planes. All the Japanese planes
were shot down,” Lacaros said.
Describing the people’s reception
of the American liberation forces,
the new student said, “We gave
them a 100 per cent greeting.” He
mentioned the surprise of the Fili
pinos at the large number and va
riety of armaments used by Amer
icans in the liberation of their is
lands.
Lacaros expressed the belief that
the Philippines “are not doing as
well” since they were given their
freedom last July 4. “It may take
five or ten years,” he estimated.
Liberal Arts
Good-looking and with an en
gaging grin, the 23-year-old Lacar
os is now majoring in liberal arts.
