Navy-Penn Clash Puzzler. N THE East, Pennsylvania encoun- tered Navy in a game as tough as any to predict. The question was: “will the big, fast Penn team be the team that licked Columbia or the one that lost to Yale and Michigan?” Columbia, meeting with slight suc- cess so far this year, had a chance to regain prestige by bowling Syracuse from the undefeated, untied class. Syracuse had anxious moments lick- ing Penn State and others, and many picked the Lion to turn the trick. .Princeton’s fast-traveling aggrega- tion meets an old foe in Harvard. Other games in the East are Yale- Brown, Dartmouth-William and Mary, Boston College-Western Mary- land, Pittsburgh-Army, Catholic-West Virginia Wesleyan, Holy Cross-Car- negie, Manhattan-La Salle, Penn State-Villanova. Fordham, which tied Pitt last week, was dated with the heavy team of St. Mary's in a speculative intersectional game. Big Southern Battles.

Va., November 9.— North Carolina and Duke hoped to get by their games today without too ‘much exertion, con- serving thelr strength for next week’s crucial meeting, but there were no offers of co-operation from their underdog foes. By pulling Jim Farley and Bill Oglesby out of the line and con- verting them from guards to half- backs and by making a few other trifiing alterations, Bill Raftery has pleced together a V. M.

I 3 interprep school crimes yes- terday, but the culprits were fully pardoned after waiting 365 days before atoning for wrongs done them in 1934 Devitt's 18-0 trouncing of Bullis not only redeemed a loss to that school last season, but gave the Upton street institution a 2-1 lead in the annual series started in 1933. And the prep school jury acquitted Gonzaga for its sin of routing George- town Prep, 51-0, when it was re- minded by Orrell Mitchell that his team had been enslaved by G. U. Prep defeats for the last three years. Landon also had revenge in mind when it took the field after three straight defeats, and the Boys’' Latin School of Baltimore was the victim of pent-up energy which resulted in & 6-0 victory for the local prepmen. St. Albans Has Task. DAY St. Albans attempts to keep step with Devitt, Gonzaga and Landon when it goes to Winchester to meet an undefeated and unscored- upon eleven—the Shenandoah Mili- tary Academy. The Cathedral boys haven't been scored upon themselves, however, in the past two games and have run up 93 points in that pair of games. Devitt’s three-touchdown margin might have been even greater had Adam Zinkievich, the Blue and Gray powerhorse, carried the ball more than five times during the first half. “Zink” gained practically every time he was given the ball, accounting for all the winners’ scores on advances ranging from 4-yard line bucks to 25- yard end runs. Fine interference by Bill Patterson, Rube Hayman and the Dixon brothers smoothed his path. Bullis’ only threat was squelched in the last few minutes of play when young Ed Thomas intercepted an enemy pass on its own 20-yard line to scamper back to midfield. Line-ups and summary: Pos.

Hardy Pearce, coach of the Blue, is not as cocky as his proteges, how- ever, belleving Eastern to have a much better ball club than was shown against Western. “Il] be mighty proud if my team is & wonderful idea and if we are fortunate encugh to provide the op- position, our game with Lane High of Charlottesville, Va.,, on November 28 will be canceled or suitable ar- rangments will be made.” Eastern Means to Fight. \VER at Eastern the Lincoln Park- ers are determined to make Cen- tral's final step to the title nothing less than a stumble. Artie Boyd’s bat- tlers are as anxious as the Columbia Heights crew to annex the champion- ship cup and take the fleld against the boys of the neighboring nation. Central followers are convinced, however, that the Blue eleven will an- nex the scholastic title following the Impressive manner in which the Rough Riders were trounced. Lynn Wood- worth's Roosevelt aggregation achieved some glory, however, in scoring its first points in the series with a safety, the only blemish on the series record of Central. Pearce’s pigskin pushers lost little time in establishing their superiority, running up a 14-0 lead in the first quarter. Using every man of his squad during the fray, Pearce watched his second and third string outfits bat- tle the Rough Riders on even terms while refusing to grant a first down. Richardson Heads Blue Attack. ONCE again it was the colorful Billy Richardson who showed the way to the goal line. Intercepting an alien pass on his own 44-yard line, Rich- ardson, aided on one plunge by Johnny Jones, swept down fleld in six plays to score the first touchdown. Billy Vermillion, improving every time out, accounted for two of Cen- tral’s tallies, the most sensational of which was a 25-yard cut-back off left tackle to score in the initial period. Johnny Jones and Norman Sabatini smashed over the goal line on short line bucks to account for the other touchdowns. Roosevelt scored its safety in the second quarter after a poor pass from center had backed Central to its 1- yard line. In the next play Bill lm.men was tackled behind his goal e.

By the Assoclated Press. ’l‘ORONTO. November 9.—Connie Smythe, their business manager, is afraid that the Toronto Maple Leafs, National League hockey cham- pions of last year, may win too many games this year. Despite the drubbing which the Montreal Maroons handed them in the Stanley Cup finals, Smythe is un- convinced that the Maple Leafs are not the best team in the league. Hence his concern over the number of victories. “The trouble is,” he remarked, “that if we lose too many games we all get fired and if we win too many all the players want an increase.” Smythe figured last year's mark of 30 victories and 4 ties in 48 games was about right, so he’s holding the same team together.

ARD on the heels of 1936 show- ing of the new automobles, the new 1936 golf ball, a more durable sphere than ever be- fore has been put out in the top price class, has just made its appearance around W ) The chief innovation in the new ball is the method of amalgamating the cover to the core, and the United States Golf Association, according to President Bush, looks upon the new method of manufacture as one of the biggest forward steps in golf ball manufacture in recent years.

Geer, a famed in- ventor, is the man responsible for the invention of the vulcanized cover on your new 1936 golf ball. “Vulcaniza- tion,” he explains, “is a chemical mix- ing with rubber or balata, of certain portions of sulphur, that brings about a toughening of the material, result- ing in greater elasticity.

Not that the new ball cannot be cut. It can and will be cut, for the sharp blade of an iron club, swinging with considerable force, would dent any cbject.

By the Associated Press. INDIANAPOL!B, November 9.—The Indianapolis Motor Speedway 21:- mile track has been rebuilt at a cost of $100,000 in the hope of re- ducing the number of fatal accidents in races and practice runs. Safety runways, as wide as the track itself, offer a haven of refuge for the driver who finds himself in trouble either near or in the four sharp turns of the course The run- ways adjoin the inside edge of the track. The four sharp turns, which are banked at 16 degrees, 40 minutes, have been smoothed with black as- phalt, almost complefely covering all of the rough, treacherous bricks on the curves. The secondary bank, which formerly reared itself sharply up- ward just in front of the outside re- taining wall, has been 1emoved. Thus, the same degree of bank carries di- rectly to the wall. A new concrete outside retaining wall surrounds the course, stronger than was the old one and designed to send the car which hits it down the track into the safety runway, The engineers believe few cars will go over the wall again.

NEW HAVEN, Conn., November 9 (®).—Abolition of the practice of naming “all-America” foot ball teams is advocated by the Yale Daily News. In an editorial, the undergraduate publication said: “We oppose the system, not because it has inevitably been unfair or be- cause the numbers of “all-America” teams chosen by different author- ities have rendered the whole pro- cedure meaningless. We oppose it because the knowledge that their chance for honor depends on their press reports must inevitably have s deleterious effect on the players themselves.” The News recalled that it was a Yale man, Walter Camp, who began the practice of naming “all-America” elevens. : GRID TITLE AT STAKE.
