MONDAY, OCTOBER 28, i940 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN ‘SPORTS CALENDAR LEA TEAGUE. STANDINGS Michigan Ended Penn’s Unbeaten Record, 14-0; Tennessee Over Florida Harmon’s Running And Passing Subdued In- dians; Vols Scored In Second-Half (Special to The Citizen) NEW YORK, Oct. 28.—Upsets and sensational playing featured the football sport Saturday. Highlighting the drama of the giliauon was the amazing work ot 40m Harmon in running and passing mis siucnigan Wotverine lcanumuates to a 14-v triumpn over Pennsyivania’s Indians. Harmon streaked ly yards for the tfst touchdown and passed lb yards to another Wotverine tol une second and.last goal. His kicking ot two extra points ran his tctai points tor five games to tne impressive mark of 87, far ahead of his nearest rvial, Frank Heagan ot the Indians. Tne highly-touted duel between Harmon and Reagan never ma- terialized. Penn's ace was help- less against Michigan’s defen- sive “brick-wall” and was re- moved trom the game early in the second period. . Indians bat- tled to the Wolverines’ two-yard line in the final quarter but a futile pass spoiled their chance of scoring. Best Penn performance was credited to tackle Al Wistert, who kept Harmon from making several other touchdowns. The loss ended Penn’s unbeat- en record and added another vic- tery to Michigan's string of tri- umphs, while remaining unde- feated Tenhessee-Florida Two touchdowns and two ex- tra points in the final period gave Tennessee's Volunteers a 14-0 win over the Gators from Florida at Knoxville in a regular Southeastern Conference game. Two native Floridians, Bill Howling of St. Pete and Buist Warren of Miami, were the down- fall of the Gators. Nowling ac- counted for the Vols’ first score after going through the inside of the left guard on Florida’s 48- yard line and racing down the field to safety. Warren, acclaim- ed a great pass thrower, entered the conflict in the last quarter. After gaining the middle of the field, he took the ball on a wide swing around left end and on to the gcal posts. Cornell-Ohio State Keeping their record clean, Cornell’s Ithacans came from be- hind to down Ohio State’s Buck- eyes, 21-7. In the very first pe- riod, Ohio staged a 89-yard drive for a touchdown that thrilled the capacity crowd in Schoellkopf Stadium at Ithaca but from then on they never had a chance. Cor- nell evened the count in the sec- ond quarter and clinched the battle in the final half. The Ithacans’ triumph cost them the services of their star end, Kirk Hershey, and Howard Dunbar. Hershey, returning aft- er a two-game rest, suffered fur- ther pain to an injured knee and Dunbar, wearing a mask, had his nose broken again.

SPORTS OFFICIALS MEET TOMORROW BY-LAW CHANGE AND NEW SCHEDULE APPROVAL BE- FORE SOFTBALLERS tie Officials, managers and players of the Island City Baseball League will meet in City Hall to- morrow night at 7:30 d’clock. Business postponed for the past three weeks, due to lack of quorums, will be on tap for the hard ball sportsmen, among which are improvements for the new field at East Martello Tower and approval of a revised schedule. Board of Managers of the Key Wiest Amateur Softball Associa- tion will gather at the same place immediately after the base- ball session. Purpose of this meeting is mainly to secure a vote on the proposed change to} Section 2 of Article XI and ap- proval of a new schedule necessi- tated by the withdrawal from, the Civilian League of the Saw- | yer’s Barbers. Change of the by-laws concerns the length of an official game. Present rule calls for five in- mings. At the regular meeting last week it was suggested four innings constitute an official contest. Vote on an amendment | or change to the by-laws cannot! be taken until seven days after all managers and commissioners have been notified of the sugges- tion. 20-GAME WINNERS LIKE THE MINORS (By Associated Drees) SEATTLE, Oct. 28.—There are a couple of Pacific Coast League pitchers who won 47 games be- tween them while losing only 16, yet the chances are negligible that they will be snapped up by the majors this winter. Kewpie Dick Barrett, rotund ear-old right-hander, won 24 games and lost only five for Se- attle. In the six years with the club he’s won 128 ‘games, or an average of 2l-plus per year. Hal Turpin, another right- hander, in his -thirties, won 23 games for the second straight Ppennant-winning year here, los- ing 11. And Turpin is the fellow who, three years ago, was tagged s “throughe-too old”. There have been cases where veterans in their thirties have gone to the majors and made good, but they are few and far between, and both Barrett and Turpin are satisfied to remain with Seattle. However, what big league club couldn’t have used a couple of pitchers good for 47 victories this season—whiskers or no? house will form the battery for the NavSta. Contest will begin promptly at 7:30 o'clock. SOFTBALL GAMES (Bayview Park Field, 7:00 p.m.) TONIGHT First Game—U.S. Marines, vis- iting, vs. U.S. Army, home (Serv- ice League).
