SALISBURY, RHODESIA (AP) (By David J. Paine) White Rhodesians, about to enter their second year of sanctions, are determined to make the best of things with a "compromise Christmas." There's virtually nothing people want for Christmas presents that we can't get," said the anager of a leading city store. "It may not always be the exact make or brand they want. Customers are having to compromise and take something that's similar. They are doing so without grumbling." Sanctions, he said, have not prevented Rhodesian businessmen from getting most imports they seek. Government import controls, limiting the amount of foreign exchange available to pay for them, have reduced the quantity available. Controls are heaviest on goods classed as luxury and non-essential. Stores are full of people. One carries 200 different children's toys instead of the usual several thousand. Another has only some of the brand names in cosmetics and many of the different lines in those brands are missing. Leading businessmen estimate spending as high or nearly as high as Christmas 1964, the last "normal" Christmas. In 1965, with independence just declared, Rhodesians spent heavily to build up their stocks before threatened sanctions hit them. It was the wildest Christmas spending the country had known. "People are passing up luxury gifts in favor of sensible presents. For instance, instead of buying marble figurines and expensive cosmetics, they're going for clothing and shoes,"said-a spokesman for one major store. For white Rhodesians, from the city dweller to the farmer, the prospects for 1967 are not bright. With the sanctions getting tighter, the economic situation is hardly likely to improve. But at Christmas they will try to forget the fact that most countries of the world are challenging their government, steadily worsening economic problems. "People I have spok-en to are determined to forget all about their worries and have a big snlurge," said the president of a businessmen's organization. For many Africans, a cheerful Christmas will not be possible. As sanctions make thier slow grind into Rhodesia's economy, labor forces are pruned and Africans are often the first to suffer. In some cases they are lucky enough to get a three of four-day week. Others find themselves out of work. Government secrecy on the effect of sanctions prevents release of unemployment figures, but reliable reports put Salisbury's workless Africans in the thousands. Many are resentful against the whites, feeling that the whites have more money and a better chance of withstanding financial difficulties. There appears to be a great deal of unhappiness about this in the African townships but, due a close police watch, little active unrest.

Nance romped off with the honor just as he did with AFL's ::rushing:: record, polling:. 20 of 27 votes cast in the AP poll by three man committees of sport writers and sportcasters in each of the nine league cities. But Nance completely outdistanced the field by easily breaking the league rushing record and finishing with a total of 1,458 yards, gained on the ground a record unmatched by any sophomore pro with the exception of Jim Brown, who gained 1,527 yards for :Cleveland of the National League.
