Annapoli Amblers’ one-sided triumph over the Army’s Soldiers from West Point, 14-0, in the Municipal Stadium at Philadel- phia. The annual gridiron battle was covered in traditio It was the of the rivalry between Uncle m's forces and it was a glorious victory for the men in blue, who had suffered 22 straight defeats previously. Never in the past 49 years had either of the rival clubs scored The rivalry began in 1890 and five members of the eleven of OFFICERS OF NAVY AND ARMY AT PARTY Lecal naval officers, with their wives and sweethearts, were hosts to army officers and escorts at a radio party Saturday afternoon to hear the traditional service foot- ball game broadcast. The party was held in the mess hall at BOQ at the air station on Trumbo Island. The Army contingent took their team’s 10ss quite to heert, according to reports, and the naval officers—well. they iust swelled up with pride. ——— that year watched their counter- parts thump their way to victory in the first and third quarters. Prominent spectators included Secretary of Navy Frank Knox and Secretary of War Harold Stimson. Led by Barnacle Bill (the Sail- or) Busik the N: men marchel from their own ard line in 11 plays for their opening touch- down in the first quarter. Bobby Leonard eptered the game for the conversion. 7-0. From then on it didn’t matter. Duke-Pittsburgh Duke’s Blue Devils edged Pitts- burgh’s Panthers 12-7 in an inter- sectional game at Durham, S. C. Ten plays gave Duke its only touchdown and tackle Tony Ruf- fa added the extra point. Pitts- burgh knotted the count in the seecnd period as sub back John- ny Stetler raced to the Devils’ one-yard line, watched Krakum smash over the line and Fife suc- cessfully placekick. Duke secur- el three points in the third on a field goal by Ruffa and another two points when Pitt’s Jones went down in the end zone trying to run out a bad pass from centre. Penthers got to the Duke two- yard line in the fourth but on four tries got nowhere. Nebraska-Kansas State Nebraska’s Cornhuskers gained their first Big Six championship since 1937 in annexing their eighth straight triumph with a smashing victory over Kansas State, 20-0. Prospects look bright for the Cornhuskers’ chances in the Rose Bowl New ¥ear’s game. Approximately 20,000 fans at- tended the contest at Lincoln, Neb. Leuisiana State-Alabama Mississippi State's Maroons completely dominated Alabama’s Crimson Tide at Tuscaloosa, Ala. in a 13-0 triumph. Thus the Ma- roons registered their first un- beaten season in modern football history. Mississippi was led by Harvey Johnson, who passed, punted and ran all over the field to the dismay of the Alabama fans. Irony of the Tide’s loss was the fact that Johnson was consid- ering entering. Alabama before going to Miss. State. Duquesne U.-Carnega’ Tech Duquesne University’s Dukes downed their home-town rivals, Carnegie Tech, 14-7, in Pitts- burgh. Tech got off to a flying start by converting the opening kickoff. into a touchdown in six plays.and then “holding Dukes to a 7-7 tie at_the helt Duqtesne went to victory scoring its second touchdown on’ a series of passes.

Santa Clara-Oklehome U. Using their sécond-stringers in the first quarter and then their first-line men, the Santa Clarajs Broncos galloped to a 33-13 win over the U. ef Oklahoma at Sanj the: PIRATES, 25 TO 5 TWELVE RUNS IN SECOND INNING LEFT NO DOUBT OF OUTCOME Key West Conchs bombarded, lambasted and walloped the crip- pled Pirates 25-5 yesterday after- noon at the East Martello Tower field on Roosevelt Boulevard. It was more a merry-go-round than Fireworks began in the second inning. Rookie Charles Albury was on the mound for the Bucs Barcelo and Molina, first two men to face him, went down. Then Lucilo Gonzalez was safe on error. Before the inning was over 12 other batters took their turn at the plate and an even dozen runs were scored. Wm.

Beston College-Holy Cross Undefeated Boston College Eagles never got out of their own tciritory against Holy Cross’ Cru- saders until the final quarter but that was enough. Until then the teams had played to a _ scoreless tie. Then the Eagles recovered a Cross fumble on the Crusaders’ five-yard line and marched over? the goal for victory. : Fordham-New York U. Fordham got. revenge Saturday at New York. Four years ago York University’s’ Violets jefeated the Rams and_ thereby obliterated Fordham’s hopes of a Bowl game. With the bid within their grasp again this year, the Rams took no chances as_ they smashed their way to a 26-0 vic- tory. Georgia-Gorgia Tech Georgia and Georgia Tech re- newed their traditional rivalry Saturday at Athens and when it was all over Tech’s Yellow Jac- kets were vanquished by the Bulldogs, 9.

AUBURN DOWNED SOUTHERN GRID FLORIDA, 20 10.7, AT COLUMBUS, GA. BABY HURRICANES OF MI- AMI ROLLED OVER GOR- “DON MILITARY COLLEGE, | 36-6 (Special to The Citizen) MIAMI, Dec. 2 —Fresh from victories over Georgia and Geor-: gia Tech, Florida’s Gators travel- ed to Columbus, Ga. last week- end for a game with Auburn’s Tigers. Florida took the field as the favorite contender, but came away on the short end of a 20- 7 score. The gridiron battle was mark- ed by numerous fumbles, six- teen in all. The Gators bobbled the ball on nine occasions and the Tigers on seven. Two of the Florida fumbles paved the way for a pair of Auburn touchdowns. In the opening quarter, half- back Red Harrison let the ball get away on his own 10-yard line and Tiger guard Ernest Mills fell upon it. Two plays and a place kick later the score read: Auburn 7, Florida 0. From then until the the final period, it was fumbles and recoveries but no touchdowns. In the last quarter, a fumble by Leo Cohill was taken by the Tigers on Gators’ 1 yard line. A combination of smashing and aerial attacks sent sub fullback Ty Irby across the goal line and Clarence Harkins booted for the extra point. Auburn’s third and final score was highlighted by a 42-yard march down the field after the kickoff. At this juncture, the count stood: Auburn 20, Florida 0. A shutout for the Gators? That wasn’t the idea of sub halfback Pat Reen. Came the final kick- off. Reen caught the ball on his own seven-yard line and began one of the longest runs of the season. Worming and wending his way past tackler after tack- ler, he went over the Tiger goal line standing up—93 yards from where he had started the sensa- tional dash. Fullback Charlie Tate accounted for the extra point.

Both teams failed on all conversion trics. (EDITOR'S NOTE: This is the seventh of ten lessons on the seventh of ten lessons on bowling.) Fs BOWLING A STRIKE By ANDY VARIPAPA Famous Bowling Authority (Written for AP Feature Service) “In the pocket” is the popular term which describes the correct hit that will, almost invariably, guarantee a strike. By that is meant throwing the ball so that it hits in the ‘area exactly between the No. 1 and No. 3 pin, the pin to the right of the head pin. When the pins are struck from that angle, either with a straight- down-the-alley, or hook-ball de- livery, the pins collaborate with ‘the bowler to knock each other down to result in the sought-aft- er strike. No. 1 pin slides to the left, taking care of that half of the set-up—the No. 3 topplies to {the right, picking off pins in its path, and the ball carries straight through to account for the mid- Gle sector. It’s to be stressed that the No ithe Miami Beach Typhoons ‘two and lost one.
