SPORTS. YALE, ARMY GLASH A s Da&mouth Tackles Harvard 35th Time—Penn in 13th Game With Navy. BY HERBERT W. BARKER, Associated Press Sports Writer. EW YORK, October - 24 —The East has too many ancient feuds to renew this Saturday to bother its head much with intersectional warfare. Only two Eastern representatives will be pitted against opponents from other ssctors, Georgetown taking on Duke, at Washington, while Holy Cross entertains -Marquette, at Worcester, Mass. Georgetown, which has rolled up more thah 200 points against its first four opponents, is an overwhelming fa- vorite to defeat Duke, but Holy Cross rudely joited by Fordham last week, is \* given scarcely an even chance against |, Marquette, which won last year, 12-6. %, The rest of the day is given over to intrasectional combat, involving in some instances rivals of long standing. Yale and Army, both unbeaten and untied, clash at' New Haven in their twenty-eighth meeting. This serles, # whi¢h has developed into one of the East's leading foot ball spectacles, be- gan in 1893. Dartmouth Is Favorite. Dartmouth, another undefeated elev- en, tackles a Harvard team, beaten only by Army, for the thirty-fifth time, at the Harvard Stadium. Rivalry began in 1882. Harvard had all the best of it for more than a score of years, but Dartmouth, in recent seasons, has been cutting down the advantage. Perform- ances to date indicate another Dart- mouth victory. Dartmouth won last year, 30-6. Prirficeton and Cornell, yearly rivals from 1891 to 1907, will battle at Princeton for the eighteenth time. ~This rivalry was interrupted after 1907 until last season when relations were re- sumed, Princeton earning a 21-10 vic- tory. This year both have undefeated records to maintain, although the Tigers have been tied by Virginia. Syracuse, beaten by Nebraska last week, meéts: Penn State, which, de- feated by Bucknell and Pennsylvania, hopes to turn the tide. Experts can’t see it that way. Pitt and Carnegie Tech have en- aged in meny a thrilling fray for the ittsburgh City championship and it will be strange if either wins by more than a touchdown Saturday. Navy Little Considered. Penn and Navy clash at Philadelphia in their thirteenth game since 1888. It will be-one of the few times when Navy will take the field against Penn con- ceded virtually no chance of winning. Gettysburg tackles a traditional rival, Bucknell, which in recent years has jumped into the major college class so far as foot ball ratings go. Bucknell won its first three games, defeating Penn State among others, and then ¢ battled Lafayette to a scorcless tie last | Saturday. Lafayette can expect no rest against West Virginia, which at the moment seems to have about as strong an aggre- gation as any in the East. Since the first game defeat by Davis and Elkins the. Mountaineers have come to the front in amazing fashion, defeating West Vi 3 h‘: v;eshxlsv, the 'l:‘s:zng and Washing| Lee in suw&gg. & i New York University meets a Tartar ¢ in Colgate..

John Milner, 54, is known to a majority of Birmingham residents as a min- ister of the gospel. On Saturday of each week, however, he is “Brother John,” able athlete and one of the most ardent supporters of the Bir- mingham-Southern College Panthers. “Brother John” is as ardent in his athletics as he is in his business of saving souls. He trains with the Paathers on the gridiron, tossing passes and bucking the line as hard as any ambitious fresh could hope to do. He can field a grounder or toss & basket ball for a goal as neatly as the snappiest collegian and he puts them all to shame as a cheer leader.

Next week "the Blues will play the. Whites, the Daisies will play the Blues and the Whites will play the Daisies in the order named. Blue and White are the school colors, so the two Senior elevens chose them as their names.—The Daisy is the school flower and this name was selected by the Junior squad to bring it good luck. According to Miss Stockett, a few Freshmen and Sophomores have made one or the other of the class teams, but for the most part the squads are com- pesed of the upper classmen. An extra practice period will be held tomorrow afternoon after school for the class teams, as it was decided by the captains and managers, in conference with Miss Stockett, that it was needed in order to smooth off the rough cor- ners before the next official matches. It is probable that an extra workout will be held each Wednesday afternoon in the future until the series is com- pleted. It is being held Thursday of this week in order that any player de- siring to do so might atttend the All- English-Baltimore hockey match, which was scheduled for this afternoon.

A natives of Birmingham, Milner received his bachelor of arts degree from the University of Alabama in 1896. For two years he pitched for the varsity nine. He later studied at Princeton where he received his degree as a theologian in 1899. He was ordained in 1960 and in the fol- lowing 18 years held pastorates in Georgia and Alabama.

Miss Roman described the tremen- dous growth in pmlllmy of the game since its- introduc into England in 1895. She declared that today there were over 11,000 clubs affiliated with the All-English Association, from which number it might be said, her team has been picked as the representative stick- wielders. All-English teams have been touring other countries each season for the past decade, she declared, taking in every country in the world where hockey is played, including Australia, America, ‘Tunasia, South Africa and Ireland. This is the second visit to the United States paid by the Englishwomen. On the first occasion, a team captained by Miss C. J. Gaskell, came here in 1921, winning every match on its circuit this side of the pond. In fact, no American team has beaten an all-English team in the history of the game, which is some seven years older in England than it is on this side. Already, the Englishwomen have de- feated our all-American eleven on this trip, 9 to 1, and the Philadelphia team, 10 to 1. Today they were to play Balti- more’s best in the Oriole City. Their itinerary in America includes trips to Chicago, New York and Boston, where they will meet the picked squads of these cities. While the Americans have not yet reached the degree of skill developed in England, they are Improving their play consistently, act g _to the British players and soon will offer stiff opposi- tion if the sport continues to increase in popularity at its present rate over here. |3 SILENT SPEED CAPTURES AKRON PIGEON CONTEST Silent Speed, stellar young racing pigeon from the loft of Prancis H.

Two weeks ago the crack man bowlers of the District organized a doubles league, which has met with success and is expected to gain in popularity as the race progresses. Tonight a similar wom- en's league will be organized at a meet- ing at the Arcadia at 8 o'clock. Two years ago Howard Campbell cre- ated the sweepstakes affair for the Dis- trict's star pinmen, and the merry bat- tles that were waged each year in this winner-take-all contest are yet fresh in the minds of duckpin devotees. Bill Wood, major domo of the Meyer Davis alleys, now announces that a sweep- stakes event for women will be held this year.

Although it has been known for several weeks that A. L. Houghton was seriously con- sidering turning golf professional, the announcement that came late yester- day was somewhat of a surprise to the many friends of the former Manor Club star, who has been a conmsistent first- flight contestant in the local tourna- SPORTS. ments for several years. Houghton has been serving as professional of the new Harper County Club for several days, and is acting in an advisory capacity with the organization which is develop- ing a golf course on Wisconsin avenue, beyond the George E. Hamilton estate. Houghton's latest feat in amateur golf was his tie with Miller B. Stevin- son for the District championship at Columbia late last month. Stevinson defated him in the play-off of the tic two weeks ago. Houghton had been a member of the Manor Club for the past three years and attained his greatest prominence in local amateur golf playing from that club. Only last month Houghton, one of six local en- trants in the national amateur champ- jonship, led the local contingent in the title chase at Brae Burn with a score of 159, two strokes too high to qualify. Houghton started his golf career as a caddie on the course of the Bannock- burn Golf Club 15 years ago, but really developed his game at East Potomac Park. He was captain of the Washing- ton Harding Cup team in 1925 and a semi-finalist in the national public links championship. Last year he was medalist and runner-up to George J. Voigt in the Middle Atlantic Golf As- soclation championship. This year he won the Town and Country Club tourney and was a prominent factor in several other tournaments. Albert R. MacKenzie and J. B. Murphy, amateurs, and Fred McLeod, Columbia professional. are playing to- day at the Catoctin Country Club of Prederick, Md. ‘Two Chevy Chase Club members are completing today the semi-final round in the Liberty Cup event. Dr. Thomas A. Claytor and Gen. Harry Taylor are playing their semi-final match today, while D. D. L. McGrew has already won his semi-final match from R. P. Whiteley by 2 and 1. National Boxing Association Threatened With Dissolution BY EDWARD J. NEIL. Assoctuted Press Sports Writer. NEW YORK, October 24 (#).—A storm brewing for months within the ranks of the National.Boxing Asso- ciation finally has blown up into a hur- rieane that threatens to break up the organization. Some followers of the game believe that the days of the association, which began here in 1921 and grew until it controlled the leathered fists in 26 States end had its say in ring affairs throughout the world, now are num- bered. The Canadian Boxing Federa- g | tion already has withdrawn from the body, Connecticut and New Jersey are contemplating the same action. The first step in the dissolution was taken yesterday when Thomas Murphy, member of the Canadian Parliament and head of the Canadian Boxing Fed- eration, entered into a working agree- ment with the New York State Athletic Commission and informed the N. B. A. of the Dominion’s withdrawal from the association. Tom Donohue, who com- prises the cntire Connecticut commis- sion, and Allan Trimble, head of the New Jersey commission, in on the negotiations as part of a “social” visit. New International Body. Men close to the sitnation declare frankly that a new national organiza- tion to be known as the International Boxing Federation §s “fn the making. ‘The plan calls for the New York State Athletic Commission, with its Nation- wide prestige, to head the new federa- tion, either directly or through the medium of a working agreement. States ready to bolt are listed as Wis- consin, New Jersey, Connecicut, Louisi- ana, possibly Michigan, Rhode Island and Maryland and the Charlotte and Greensboro_city commissions of North Carolina. Texas and Alabama are con- sidered possibilities. The November elections may bri about a repeal of the - present California boxing law, thereby eliminating that State from the present consideration. The discord now prevailing in the association came to a head during the recent annual convention in Toronto. | Nsually presidents of the organization | are elected to succeed themselves for a second term of one year, and when opposition developed to President Dono- hue under those circumstances, he with- drew from nomination. In his place Thomas Murphy was named to oppose Paul Prehn, chairman of the Illinois State Athletic Commission. Murphy, then the second vice presi- dent, was barred from the lists when a by-law was discovered preventing any but delegates from the United States holding office. The stand was taken that the assoclation was organized pri- marily to further the inteersts of box- ing within the United States and that Canada was merely affiliated with the organization. The turmoil attendant on the elec- tion and the charges that followed ap- parently led the Canadian federation to affiliate with the New York Associa- tion which refused to join the Nv B. A. on its inception because of a disagree- | ment over the association by-laws. Now it seems as though the remaining mem- bers of the association will choose be- tween the old order and the new. ‘The November elections may further compiicate the situation and lead to a Gef your ATTERI Price and reputation both invite you I el .I;\I’HH}IE!\ i} FOR YOUR RADIO Exide BATTERIES The Electric Storage Battery Co..

October 24.—Foot ball the forward pass is apt to be seen at Jowa City Satur- day when two plunging full- as played in the days before backs lead the Minnesota Gophers and | ITowa Hawkeyes into the leading game | of the week In the Big Ten. The ground-gaining prowess of Mayes McLain of Jowa and Bronko Nagurski of Minnesota is likely to play a big part in the result of the game. Minnesota fans herald Nagurski as the greatest fullback ever turned out at Minneapolis, even greater, they say, than Herb Joesting. McLain, a sensation at Haskell two years ago, is regarded by Iowa followers as the equal of Gordon Locke. The game will not only be a battle of fullbacks, but of two powerful lines— lines that may stop the plunging tac- tics of Nagurski and McLain and com- pel both teams to resort to an over- head game. Coach Spears, realizing this, is working to perfect the Minne- | sota defenes against an aerial game, while at Jowa City Burt Ingwersen is developing a passing attack to use in case his line plungers fail.

Both are seniors in their third year on the cquad and each has won two letters. Rose scored one of the touchdowns against Purdue last week, while Kresky, a reformed backfield man, was one of Coach Thistlethwaite’s aces in the line. Coach Tad Weiman also had his troubles at Michigan. John Totzke, the best punter on the squad, went. to the hospital with a twisted ankle and prob- ably will be out of the Wisconsin en- counter at Ann Arbor Saturday.
