ls9ular Scene for Army and.
Navy Game Desire Of
Both Branches
By HUGH r. RILEY.

ANNAPOLIS. Nov. 1s.-With
che ending Of the Harvard Yale
eanie on next Saturday the an
nual clash between the elevens
Of the Military and Naval acade-
sAies will assume the chief interest
in the eyes Of the football world.
There will remain also the Penn
syIyania- Cornell contest and others
Of sporting and sectional interest,
but none Of these can approach
the place held In the public gaze
BY the Army-Navy game.
The fact that cadets and mid
sliipnier viii make another at.
tempt to break the tie which ext
listed last year and which remained
becapse that game ended In 9
scorelsss draw. will add another
eiment Of much interest to the
game, The teams have met twenty.
nix times and each has won twelve
games. the other two being ties.
No other important series has this
special element to increase rivalry
and interest.
The playing Of the game in BaIti.
more for the first time Is also d
special circumstances. Since the
early days, when the game alter
mated between Annapolis and West
Point, no game between the two
Academy teams has been played so
far South. Baltimore has q fine
new stadium. and win offer the
largest seating accornmoda tion
which has ever attended the serv-
1t Is no secret that Army repre-
sentatiyes were strongly against
the selection Of Baltimore as the
place Tor the game, claiming that It
entaiIed too great Journey upon
its student body and other per-
sonnet.
II was pointed out, however,
that the trip to New York was
Just as difficult and expensive
for the Naval Academy c0ntin-
gent as that from West Point TO
Baltimore viii be upon the
Army detachment.
Many Of those in touch with the
situation believe thats the playing
Of the game in Baltimore viii lead
tie future either they will be played
alternately in Baltimore and New
York, or the officials Of the 5ervices
will reach an agreement thar they
Be played regularly in Philadelphia.
The latter decision would be con-
tlngent upon the construction # a
cornTnOdious stadium, such as IL
contemplated there.
Unless an agreement, is reached
for the playing Of next years game.
or probably d series of games, In
Philadelphia; the Army will un-
doubtedly pick New York for the
next game, It being its tArn to
make the selection.
For years Army officials have
preferred New York to any other
place. and have at times gone so
far as to insist that all games be
played there. This, Naval officials
believe, Is unfair to the Naval
Academy.

Surprisingly, Duncan, who might
have had an OFF season in 1924, was
waived right out Of the National
League to the worlds champions.
1t is estimated that two other
outfielders will go before the club
STARTS South next spring. They
are the veteran George Burns, who
might be given his release In order
to manage some minor league team,
and Chick Shorten. who will prob.
ably be used In some kihd OF a
deal.
IL is no secret that the Reds
would like TO get hold Of q first base
man who h also d hard and timely
hitter. A. things stand, the YER
Satile RubeN 3reasler seems to have
fallen heir To the Job left vacant

like TO use Rressler In left field
and get another more experienced

to get their hooks on lanky George
Kelly, OF the Giants, as would SIb-ht
fourteen other big league clubs. Hen

much that he has offered John
Joseph McGraw his pick Of the Gin,

tempting bait Is likely to fail In its

exceedingly useful individual and
