Eleven From Naval Air Station
Bests Marine Football Team
at Maxent Park w.
OF $500
VIEWED MATCH
Cleanest Game Played Here in
Years Verdict of Big Crowd
Which Watched Battle.

The Navy eleven defeated the U. S.
Marine football team yesterday to the
tune Of to 0 in one OF the cleaneSt
and fastest matches ever staged in
Pensacola. The game was played at
Maxent park, beginning at 2:30 o'clock
Although the Marines put up a plucky
fight they were outplayed, the score
resulting in to 0 favoring the Navy
at, the end of the first half.
The excellent playing Of the navy
team is probably due to the much
larger body of men from which the
Navy eleven was picked. Captain
Helms fought against big odds but put
up a plucky fight. Captain Riddell,
of the Navy team is a former Nebras-
ka star and an All-American man,
while the work of Murdoch in jump
ing and carrying the ball forward for
q gain of 20 yards was probably the
feature Of the Navy's game.
The football match was preceded by
a contest in pushba1l, a new game for
Pensacola, which ended in a tie score.

wiched in between the halves OF the
football game.
Big Crowd Watches
A crowd OF over $500 people wit
messed the contest, mostly service
men, and the absence of civilians was
notable in the crowd. Over 700 had
been counted last night and other con-
tributions still coming in will probably
swell the total added to the Unita1
war Work Campaign by the game to
over $500. Large contributions were
gained by carrying two big flags uI
and down the lines into which offer
ings were thrown.
Besides the big crowd Of service me1
and civilians, Col. Hughes, of F'or'
Barrancas, Captain Bennett, of the
Naval Air Station and Major Harding

the side lines. Considerable credit Is
due to Pensacolians who put the field
in shape for the game. The rain OF

SUGAR RATION
MAY BE RAISED

Washington Novr 16.-While no for
NAL acIlon has been taken by the food
administration, officials indicated to-
day that tits probable the sugar al
fotn1ent for the entire country will be
increased from pounds a person
monthly to pounds on December 1.
The increase also will apply to public
eating places, allowing four pounds in
stead Of for every 90 meals served.
Lifting Of all restrictions on the
consumption of sugar after January
was said by officials as likely because
of large supplies available then in
Java and the free flow Of Cuban sugar
during that month. By February, il
was Indicated, Central Europe and
France and Italy should be in posi-
ton to resume production.
Several days ago Food Administrator
Hoover announced that on December
1 the four pounds monthly ration
would apply to Louisiana and the beet
sugar states.
