1936 Kick Changed Rule i Drrun.\iui i, rim h CHICAGO AP? ? Yale Unlver \ sily has put another of its grid- j iron sprs in the Football Hatl of Fame by honoring Clinton E. j Frank, quarterback and captain of its 1937 team. Clint Frank still carries Jhe 192 pounds he weighed when h^ played football at Yale from 1935 to the fall of 1937 when he was > named All-Ainerican quarterback "j Frank was a junior on the 1936 squad when Larry Kclley, captain and end. received the John W. lleisman Memorial trophy from the Downtown A. C. of New York. Kelley, a senior, was also an Ail American That season became memorable in gridiron circles because Kelley caused coaches and officials to scratch their heads in the Yale-! Navy game, Frank recalls. A punt fell on Navy's 45-yard line when its receiver dropped the hall Kelley, coming in for a tackle, attempted to make a run- | ning pickup but kicked the ball | instead. The pigskin sailed and rolled 41 j yards and was downed by Kelley on Navy's 4-yard line. There was no rule preventing this, so the of- ? ficials gave the ball to Yale on the j Nav^A, QiAjcrbaek Frank plunged over] the line in the closing min- j utes for a touchdown. Yale- won , 12 to C. A hoot and a howl was raised by all of gridiron officialdom. A couple of years later the National Football Rules Committee chang ed the rule so that" a free ball, when kicked, becomes a dead ball. Under today's rule Navy would have retained possession. Kelley now is with a manufact uring firm in eastern Pennsyl vania. Frank, 41, now is a two-fisted business executive in Chicago and head of his own advertising firm. , His team of 55 employees Includes a line of busy stenographers, a < haekfield of researchers and copy writers, and dependable ends in. the art department. - ? . ?- 1-< _ tr:...

The only similarity between his sur roundings and the Ivy l.eague is that he works at a mahogany f stained desk and there's a carpet on the floor. How does football of today com pare with the game of 20 years ago? Frank says it's still a game of blocking ?rr." tackling and intel ligent use of the head on the foot ball field. The T formation was first com ing into use during Frank's foot ball heyday The single wing was the technique then "A tot of people might say there is a difference in the game, but T don't think there's a funda mental change. It's still a great game," says Frank, who lives in Winnetka, a suburb north of Chicago. He ha.s five children, three girls and two boys, ranging in ages.from 14 to 1. "Sounds like the odds on a foot ball game. Doesn't it?" he says proudly.

Boat Racing FLYING IS FASIFR than driving a speedboat says Miro Slovak, who in Mareli of '195.7 flew a Communist jet lighter plane over the Iron Curtain. Miro will lie piloting Miss Wuhoo in 1957. By JACK HEWINS SEATTLE iAPI ? When Mirh slav Slovak learned that his boss, William Boeing, Jr.. was building a racing speedboat and that 10 men had applied lor the job of driving it, he mentioned casually that he would like to he No. 11 on the list. "Ho didn't say anything at the time." recalls Slovak. "Next thing I knew. Mr. Boeing announced in the newspapers that 1 was to drive Miss Wahoo." Bri nks like (hat have tome often to the young Czech pilot who lied from the Reds, and he'll tell you quietly, sincerely, that "1 love this country very much." Miro excited the world in March of 1953 when he flew a Communist jet fighter plane over the Iron Cur tain. While he was an air cadet the Reds urged him to fly in Korea for the Chinese. Today his closest friend is Curie Cech. who flew 100 missions in Korea for the United Nations. "Just think," says Miro, "we might have been shooting at each other! I refused to go. Today 1 would be glad to fly against those Communists." He speaks with only a slight ac cent. this 26-year-old who could not understand an English word when hp sought refuge in the West. In his spare time he attends classes at the University of Washington to Improve his diction ind his knowl edge of American ways. -- Twice President Eisenhower helped Miro Slovak who was shackled by red (ape. The Presi j dent signed a special bill which permitted Mircvto enter this coun ! try. Later, when be was hired to ! pilot Boeing's private plane, the i Federal Communications Commis i sion refused him a license to opcr 1 ate the aircraft's radio. Again the I President interceded, signing the necessary permit. But he bad been flying in Amer ica. in a field where radio was not vital. He had been a crop dust er. The job brought him to the Pa cific Northwest and a friend intro duced him to Boeing Slovak was just a bit uncertain when Boeing picked him to drive Miss YVahoo (named for Wahoo, Neb . Mrs. Boeing's home town. I "1 had never driven a boat," Miro says. "In Europe I had en joyed skiing and skating and swim ming I had run the 1500 meters at Hlohovee College. But boat racing was something new," Ted Jones, who designed the big ; hydroplane, helped him "lie was very stern." says Miro. "but I was very green I learned, too, from other drivers. In 1957 we may do I something with this hydroplane." Plagued by engine crankiness, Wa hoo made no big splash on a racing circuit dominated by three other Seattle boats ? Shanty 1, Miss Thriftway and Hawaii Kai III. The boat has become almost the entire world of American sport for Miroslav Slovak. "Oh. I still ski and I do some glider flying, but the boat?that is important. It is not like flying at all. Piloting a plane is relaxing. Driving a boat is rough and challenging and very exciting." New War Film 'Attack' Starts Big Controversy Representative Melvin Price, a member of the House Armed Serv ices Committee, charged the De partment of Defense with attempt ed'censorship in its refusal to co operate in the production of "At tack'." a controversial film drama of World War II presenting a cow ardlv American officer as one of its principal characters. "Attack!," which stars Jaek Pal anre, was produced by Robert Aid rich without an\ of the technical and material assistance customari ly supplied by Ihc Defense Depart ment for motion pictures about the armed services. Congressman Price, a Democrat of Illinois, made his criticism in a statement issued after he had seen a preview of the film which opens Sunday at the Strand Theatre through United Artists release. Referring to the refusal of De fen'e officials to extend "Attack!" ' any production, assistance. Rep. j Price's statement declared, "1 con ! sider it a shameful attempt to im ! pose censorship oil a film because | it dares to present an officer whose character is marred hv the human ifailings of weakness and cowards ice.-' "If he were an enlisted man." the statement continues, "he could ap parently be presented with im punity as a coward and a moral weakling. But according to the Pentagon, an officer may not be shown in such unfavorable light." WELCOME RETURN - - - By Alan Mover tommy \sX HENRICH, a we i. co ' / RETURHEE ?
