TELLS HOW MEN IN
ARMY WERE GIVEN
So A DAY EXTRA
Didn't Need Soldiers, But
Government Insisted, Avi-
alton Inquiry Commit
tee Is Informed

New York, October 2S-Emp1oymen. OF
S7O0 drafted soldiers, who were given an
average, of S. day by the contractors in
addition to their government pay, to help
construct logging railroad in the north
west, was described today to the. Con-
gressional subcommittee investigating
aviation expenditures during the war.
The government spruce railroad was
built in the Olympia peninsula, Washing
ton, and connects with the Chicago, Mil
waukee and St. Paul lines. 1t is IS miles
long and cost s4.0o00oo.
I'VE didn't need the soldiers at all; the
government insisted on giving them to
u.s. testified II. II. Kerbaugh, member
of the New York contracting firm Of
Stems, Carey & I<erbaugh, which built
the road.
According to the witness, the contrac-
tors had to supplant some civilians with
soldiers. These orders, ne said, came
from Major Mott Sawyer, representing
Col. Brice P. Disque.
Major Sawyer is row a superintendent
of the Chicago Milwaukee and St. Paul.
The soldiers numbered one-third the
civilians employed on the construction.
and received the same pay as the latter.
Mr.. Kerbaugh denied that commercial
uses to which the road might be put after
the war resulted in its great cost. He
said a heavy roadbed was necessary In
order to bring out quickly S00,0O0000 feet
of spruce which he and his associates had
contracted to log. No spruce had moved
over the road when the armistice was
signed and the road was not completed
then.
Z Mr.. Kerbaugh said he and another
member of his company were solely re-
sponsible for the recommendation of the
route of the spruce railroad to the war
department This recommendation was
made, he admitted after he had toured
the district two days.
John ID. Ryan, formerly director of air
craft production and a director of the
Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul, is eN-
pected to testify tomorrow.

Unfortunately for Alabama, How
ard college is the only team that both
the University machine and Sewanee
has played. Howard lost to Alabama,
Is to 0, and on sloppy field to Sc
vance, Is to o. Coach Dillon of the
Howard team says, however, that Sc
vance has a better team than Au-
burn and fully as good one as Ala
bama. and he ought to know. The mere
fact, though, that Sewanee was beaten
by both Georgia and Kentucky has
caused many to underate her strength
and give odds on the Crimson eleven.
Sewanee's scores thus far are as fol-
lows: Sewanee IS, Howard 0; Sewanee
0, Georgia 10; Sewanee 0. Kentucky g.,
Alabama's showing thus far is as fol-
lows: Alabama %, Birming CHAM South
ern 0, Alabama so, Mississippi 0; Ala
bama As, Howard O.; Alabama 81. Marion
0. 1t must be admitted that Alabama
has rolled up wonderfully big scores
this season, but when one considers
the caliber of teams they have en-
gagged this means nothing.
The battle between Auburn and
Georgia promises to be an even warmer
affair than the one in Nashville last
Saturday. Georgia hasn't been scored
on this season and is still in the cham
pionship race, while Auburn's goal line
has been crossed by every team she has
played with the exception of Glenn
son. Following is Auburns showing
thus far this season: Auburn 10.
Howard 6; Auburn z, Clemson 0; Au-
burn rs, Fifth Division team 13; Au-
burn 6, Vanderbilt Z. Georgia has
played three big college elevens, and
one smaller college team with the fol-
lowing results: Georgia %, Citadel 0
Georgia IA, South Carolina O: Georgia
13, Sewanee O.; Georgia 16, Florida o..
Georgia has made the better show
ing there's no doubt about that, but
even so Auburn supporters are Offering
to 4 odds on the Plainsmen. This
may be an account of a superabundance
of Auburn followers here.
Southern sport scribes are touting
Josh Cody for all-American this sea-
son. If ever a man did deserve a place
on that mythical team the Vandy cap
tain does this year. Cody would star
even on Harvord or Washington, and
if he is not awarded all-American it
will be because of prejudice Cody DEM

PADONBNEY A CONFER

This brand of graphing was ex-
hibited through the entire match, with
no apparent advantage to either side.
1t was evident that Padonbney was
worrying the stranger" not a little
with his armlocks, toe holds and 9TH
er punishments But, as is the case in
every bout, the end had to come, and
it did in the form of four flying head
locks d livered by Lewis.
When the grapplers were getting to
the feet from a lively mix-up, Lewis
sprang UP and came down on Padonb-
ney's neck. After delivering a little
punishment he loosened up, ard Padonb-
ney came out apparently dazcoM Lewis
grabbed another head dock. and fol-
lowed this with two more, the Last one
driving Padonbneys sholders to the
mat. The force of the headlocks had
been so great that PaGonbney's neck
was injured, and he was unable to APP
pear for the second fall.
Last nights bout demonstrated the
fact that Padonbney is a conner, and
has a future before him III the Crap
ping game. He was apparently the
match of the Stranger in every way
but one. He was unaole to stand up
under the terrific punishment of Lew
is head holds.
Padonbney has been in this coun-
try but eight months, but has made a
record for himself. He has thrown
several prominent grapplers, and has
met Valdez Zbyszko. 1t is claimed
that he wrestled Zbyszlo for an hour
and half. when the latter quit, and
refused 10 wrest1e further. Padonbney
certainly made a favorable impression
on local graphing fans during last
nights bouS.
The first nu:nbei en- the preliminary
bill was a 15-miLute Wrestling match

Sholder the bout ending in draw,
as neither was able to pin the others

Next there was 45-minute graphing
battle between two brothers, John Vim

John outweighed his brother about
seven pounds he was unable 10 show
any superiority over him in wres-

LEWIS THROWS IVAN
PADONbNEY IN BOUT
OF MANY THRILLS
Russian Grappler Drives Ed
Hard-The Flying Head
Lock Wins-Ivan
a Conner
By MARVIN MCARTY

In one of the most thrilling
matches ever seen in Birming-
ham, stranger" Lewis threw
Ivan Padonbney in 81 minutes
Is seconds. The bout had
every earmark of a grudge
fight, the two grapplers going
after each other from the tap
of the gong, and mixing mat
tiers right and left.
Padonbney gave Lewis as much. If
not more, than he himself was receiv-
ing until the stranger" clamped on
one of his famous headlocks, followed
in quick succession by three more, and
the match was over Padonbney was
not able to come back for the second
fall, Lewis headlocks having injured
his neck rather severely
When the two men entered the ring
both were given an ovation. Immedi-
ately after the tap of the gong it was
evident that it was to be no walk
away for Lewis, for Padonbney rushed
and met the STRANGER" halfway. Aft
er the usual sparring around and feel
ing out the men began to mix mat
tiers. Lewis c1amped on deadlock.
but Padonbney weathered the storm
and came out in fine fashion He
evened the score by Selling an arm
lock on the stranger" that made the
latter rush for cover
FROM then on it was a nip and tuck
affair. After several minutes spent in
exchanging holds, Lewis secured an
other deadlock. Padonbney came out,
only to be seized again by the now
thoroughly aroused Lewis. Afer tho
mighty Russian had wiggled out OF
the deadlock, he secured head hold
on Lewis Then things began to hap
pen. Eddie easily came out of the head
lock, but Padonbney seized hold of a
toe hold that made Lewis writhe in
agony. 1t was Lewis turn next, so
Padonbney was clamped in bad wrist
lock, and then an armlock. Finally
Ivan wriggled loose, and the melee
Strengthened out, and both men were
on their feet.
