De COURT TOSSES FlREMEN
AROUND IN WORKOUT AT
CENTRAL FIRE STATION

This morning in the gym of the CEN
trail fire station, Nick De Court took
ON four firemen for a workout and,
after toying with them the prescribed
time, convinced them, at least that he
Will beat Ad Santel Thursday night.
Nick says the boys We're all "hus-
kies" and gave him a fine workout.
He says further that he never in his
entire career felt stronger, better or
more lucky and believes he will chase
the Santel jinX and win. There will
be no alibi If he loses.
Santel and De Court have perhap
the most novel record in sports. De
Court has thrown Santel twice, but
has never been thrown by Ad and yet
their two encounters spread over a
peoriod of several years stand, De
Court beaten twice by Santel. The
first time they met, Nick's shoulder
was broken through forcible contact
with an obstruction on a mat and at
their last encounter in Boise, De Court
threw Ad in ~ minutes and then
lost through a twisted neck, causing
him to suffer excruciatinG pain that
no human could withstand, and go on
with a match.

n HEAVY GUNS USEFUL

From the German attack on the
Belgian forts at the beginning of the
war coast defense experts foresaw
future use of heavy mobile guns and
howitzers and anti-aircraft artillery,
whereas formerly coast artillery work
had involved only use of fixed mounted
guns.
As it was found that most officer
material from such highly technical
arms as the coast artillery came from
colleges, formation of a reserve for
future use was begun. Five schools
already have accepted offers to form
reserve units-Mass Institute
of Technology; Vanderbilt university,
Mississippi A and NJ college, University
of Washington and University of Vir-
ginia. Fourteen others have expressed
Il desire for such units-Utah Argircul-
tural college. University OF Cincinnati
Northwestern university, University of
Kansas, Kansas State Agricultural
college. Case School of Applied Science
University Of Pittsburg, Washington
university, st. Louis; Columbia uni
versity, Rhode Island; State college,
Virginia A and NJ, Polytechnic insti-
tute, Louisiana State university, Mich
igan Agricultural college and Univer-
sity Of California.
