Stand In Controversial 6
0 , Victory. Over Pacific.
Los Angeles; 'Oct. 28 W.B
Despite opposition from, other
University of Southern Califor
nia officials, Jeff Cravath, head
football coach, today reiterated
his willingness to replay Satur
day's controversial game with
Alonzo Stagg's College ot We
Pacific.
Stagg. COP'S 82 -year -old
coach, suggested' yesterday that
the game, which use won o-u
after Pacific had had a toucn
down play recalled and a pen
alty for clipping invoked, be re
played If Southern California
agreed that the penalty was not
Justified.
Any Practical Dale
Cravath replied as soon as he
received me announcement inai
"he would be pleased to play a
rematch with College of the Pa
cific on any practical date."
Arnold Eddy, USC's athletic
manager, dldn t share Cravath
enthusiasm for a return engage
ment. He said the request
"didn't sound like Stagg."
"In his 54 years of collegiate
football coaching, I never heard
of Stagg questioning an official
decision In a game. . I can't be
lieve he has been quoted cor
rectly,". Eddy said.
As a matter of fact, Stagg did
not question the official's de
cision that, spoiled his .team's
perfect record. .
He said he did not see the
questioned play, which occurred
In the second quarter, because
his players on the bench jumped
- to their feet In their enthusiasm
and blocked his view. He said
that It USC agreed that.it had
won on a faulty decision that it
could perform a commendable
act of sportsmanship by asking
for a rematch.
.The disputed play was a 35
yard pass from Johnny Podesto
to Quarterback Joe Ferem, Offi
cials ruled that End Jack Hurley
clipped USC's safety man,
Mickey McCardle, on the play.
Pictures of the play failed to
clarify the argument, none hav
ing caught on film.

Landlords and Tenants Fill
Air With Protests, Bicker
ing Some .Stage Fights.
By Mick Bourne
United Press Correspondent
: San Francisco, Octr 26 U.R)
Landlords on one side and ten
ants on the other, with the Of
fice of Pif:e Administration In
the middle, today were raising
the roof at OPA headquarters as
eviction notices "became more
serious" in this critical war
housing area.
"A day at the OPA" head
quarters, charged with enforcing
rent control, arbitrating between
landlord and tenant, protecting
the rights of goldfish and ex
pectant mothers, was like a ring
side seat at 13 simultaneous
"goodwill courts" crowded into
Grand Central station with
clanging locomotive bells sig
naling round one:
Bathroom Padlocked "
Mrs. Tenant demanded that
the OPA force her landlord to
take the padlock off the bath
room door. ....
The landlord, it developed,
had rented Mrs. Tenant two
rooms In his four-room house
after a family tiff sent the land
lord's wife and seven children
packing.
But, Mrs. Tenant explained to
Mrs. Margaret Field, supervisor
of interviews, she persuaded the
landlord to take his wife and
seven children back! the land
lord then removed Mrs. Tenant,
her' husband and two children
into one room and padlocked the
bathroom. ,;
- That made 13 persons In four
rooms and developed a crisis
which brought the police. .
Baby Expected
Tm expecting another baby,
in a month. I've had five and
lost three. I'd like a little peace
and quiet for this one. I want
the bathroom unlocked, a re
fund on one room's rent from
the time they moved us out of
It, and I want that other room
back. And they can't kick me
out In this condition. I've been
getting up at. 5 o'clock in the
mornings to look for another
place.' There aren't any."
Mrs. Tenant, began .to cry.
Mrs. Field summoned the OPA
rent attorney. The landlord
agreed to unlock the bathroom,
but claimed that since Mrs.
Tenant's husband, a war work
er, agreed to accept the "dou
bling" up there was no chance
of giving back the "extra" room.
Mrs. Tenant also claimed the
landlord struck her, announced:
"I am going to have Fred beat
him up good when he comes
home from the shipyard tonight"
Just as the phone rang:
Visitors Problem .

people. They had four visitors

-EEPING fully informed, getting all the
news, is something that we in America have long
been used to. But war has magnified its importance,
made it far more vital than at any time in the past.
For this is a people's war . . and full information
is the people's indispensable weapon for Victory.
We have always turned to our newspapers as the most
complete source of news. The war has made us more
dependent on newspapers than ever before ....
-. for full reports of the day's events ... for detailed
news from the battlefronts and the homefronts, from
Washington and other world centers, and from our
own town.
. . . for full information on wartime regulations . . .
on rationing and taxes, dimouts and blackouts, draft
orders and air raid rule , on how to save, how to
make things last longer, what to do to help win the
war and hasten the coming of peace.
. . . for editorial interpretations and expert analysis
of the important happenings, to give us a better
, understanding of what's going on today and what
lies ahead.
... or the vital news that comes through the adver
tisements of manufacturing plants and retail stores
news of what industry is doing and planning, news
of merchandise and services the stores are offering.
We depend on newspapers to be fully inform, .
Small wonder, then, that today, when being well
posted is so important to all of us, newspapers are
being read more eagerly, more thoroughly, and by
more people than ever before. That's one reason why
newspaper space is so powerful a medium for war
time advertisers.
