(Continued iroin page one)
The tie-game-player-loses gim
mick makes it next to impossible
to pick and spot 12 or 16 winning
teams.
Based on last year’s statistics
of 150 college football teams, one
game in 20 ends in a tie.
If you pick four teams, the sheet
will give you odds of 8 to 1. The
real odds are 24 to 1. The real odds
on picking five teams are 53 to 1;
you get 12 to 1.
The higher you go the more you
lose. The odds are 2,834 against
spotting 10 winners; if you do hit
it lucky you get odds of 100 to 1.
You get four cents on the dollar.
Twelve winners will net you odds
©f 200 to 1, the actual odds are
13,900 to 1.
For the most part if you must
gamble you are better off to stick
to the slot machines. They are il
legal but pay between 20 and 40
cents on the dollar.
The parley sheets are printed by
a national syndicate in Portland
and distributed to the local mer
chants.
The syndicate states that they
have $20,000 cash capital deposited
locally to guarantee payment of
forecasts.
In case you lose, as everyone
does, you can collect double on the
losses. Before any suits are
brought you must first prove that
picking the winners is gambling
and that you lost money.

Dull Tells of Russian,
U.S. Methods in China
Paul S. Dull, authority on the
Far East, Tuesday night discussed
past and current foreign policy of
the United States toward China in
a speech to the University Foren
sics group.
His address centered around the
problem om the Communists in
China and procedures for the Uni
ted States to follow.
The methods employed by Russia
in China now are distinctly not
Chinese, but as long as the Orien
tal is fed, he will listen to what
you say,” Dull said. “We also have
no assurance that China, under
Mao Tze Tung will not be Moscow
controlled.
“When China needed help in 1923
Russia helped her. Chiang Kai
Shek ran China on a plan learned
in Russia from 1923 until 1927
when the Communists were forci
bly pushed out and driven under
ground by the Rightist of Chiang’s
government.”
Nothing much was done about
China until 1944, Dull continued.
“The aim of the United States
since then has been to keep the
Russians out,” he said. "The Unit
ed States knew even in 1944 that
the Communists would win in Chi
na if a civil war broke out between
them and the Nationalists.
It is now a question of what the
United States can do about China,
Dull said and concluded there are
four possible answers:
(1) We can send arms to bolster
the Chiang government.
(2) Dispatch United States
troops directly to China to fight
the Communist elements.
(3) Recognize the Communist
party in China.
(4) Or just do nothing which
Dull said was our present policy.
He said the proposal of sending
troops to fight in the civil war is
absurd and arming the National
ists equally untenable since 94 per
cent of arms already sent them
have fallen into the hands of the
advancing Communists.
“Possibly the best policy is to
do nothing,” he concluded.
Much of his presentation was
based upon the recently published
“White Paper” issued by the State
Department.

terials and food will increase.”
Dr. Piquet pointed out that since
the economy of the western nation
concerns the welfare of the United
States, we ought to take steps to
help them. The proposal which he
presented would require the United
States to take gold from our treas
ury to establish an inconvertible
dollar economy for Western Eur
ope.
The skepticism of the American
people Dr. Piquet believes will
prevent the adoption of such a
plan, but it is the ultimate neces
sity to work towards these ends if
the Western democracies are to
achieve prosperity and security.
