 Preservation of an Indianapolis tradition which has endured Tor more than fifty years was assured when MeIlvaine- Kothe Post No. l53 of the American Legion took up the duties of carrying on the customs of society of Civil War Veterans. The tradition is the firing of saiutes from Civil War cannon at an ln- dianapolis cemetery on Decoration Day and in the courthouse yard on Washington's birthday. The old cannon originally was on Confed- crate flat boat which patroled the | Ohio River between Louisville and | Cincinnati, but was captured by Federal gunboat in 1864. The can non has been in the hands of the Legion post since last decoration day.
 Reports from the Texas depart ment of the American Legion on Tag Day, which was held there | Armistice Day for the benefit of the American Legion Memorial Iu- | berculosis Hospital, show that the | drive was a huge success. Iose NV | 50 of Laredo, was the first to re

Beauty Is always appealing. A

anyone were to ask women what type

that very many would choose n man

Women are not fascinated by mas

But who can. say what type OF
woman man prefers? What part
beauty plays in his choice? Judging
from the letters ] have received from
young Frenchmen-most of them
back from the war---it would seem as
II. theoretically at least. they have
less use for beauty than for grace.
"A woman must be graceful" al

NAVY AND ARMY
EVEN SCORE OF
IL GAMES EACH
Face Royal Tug O. War
Next Fall to Break
Tie. 90
By LORRY A. IACORG

New York, Dec. 1.-It.s ali over
this year. But there's going to be q
royal ting O. war next year. We're
talking about the annual muss b.
tween the Army and Nave. The
Navy went and did 1t BY crossing
the Army line this year for q lone
touchdown, thereby making the
count Hill.
The sailors Had 70 win three
years in succession to do II. but
they finally got the score Nvsned
up, the Army having been lordiue
1t over them for eight years-the
longest time either team has ever
held the supremacy in the number
Of games won. ~
See.Saw.
The Army and Navy began play
ing each other in 1890. In 1906 the
Army had forged ahead three
games. In 1912 the Navy managed
to be ahead by two games and then
the Army took the lead with string
of four straight victories. And now
comes the Navy back and finally
ties the thing up again. both teams
having won II games and tied one.
So they're now getting ready for
the big tussle that's to come on next
year to see who's going to keep out
in front.
Squeeze Play.
Thto Uoopsc nNntnct kof-naA 49,
two service teams was one OF the
prettiest sights football fans have
ever witnessed. The Polo grounds
were jammed to the very limit, Co.
900 getting in some way, although
there were but $4,000 tickets. And
three times that many applied for
tickets. Two teams could. not have
hetn much more evenly matched up
until the time French Of the Army
booted miserable punt out LOT
bounds and thereby started the
Navy on the way to port.
And Next Year.
But just figure for yourself what
it's going to be next year with both
teams tied in thenumber Of games
won and the rubber as the prize
for winning.
Says Coach Folwell:
Next years clash between the
Army and Navy is likely to be re-
garded as a classic Gnd it is prob
able that both teams will go through
the most gruelIing training ever
known to football. II never see
arycther football game i certainly
want to see that ONE"
Said Coach DAILY.
Its going to be q great game
next year. The Army and Navy will
be fighting for supremacy after the
score has been evened up and a.
great as the rivalry has always been
it should be even greater next year. !"

And certainly one fan thought 80,
TO rjust before the game last Sat-
urday at the Polo Grounds, Secre-
