DRY ARMY HARD
HIT BY failure
TO PASS TESTS
Shortage of Agents Will
NeCeSSitate New Exami-
nations.
By Times Special

By Times Special
WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-With
Government prohibition enforce
ment in many sections facing dis
.ruptio because of a lack of eligibles
for the positions of agents and in
spectorS, the Civil Service commits
sion has decided to hold new exam
nations for these positions.
Definite announcement is expect
ed next week, as soon as Prohibi-
tfon Commissioner James M. Doran
can complete q check being made
to ascertain what sections will be
hit hardest.
It was disclosed today that only
1000 of the 1880 applicants who
took the civil service examination
for agents or inspectors in May,
1927, passed. Out of some 1000
prohibition agents taking the exam
ination, less than 700 passed.
Commissioner Doran just has
furnished administrators with lists
showing the names of agents in
their districts who failed to pass the
examination. Under existing law
all agents who failed must be dis
charged and their places filled by
successful candidates.
1.-THE difficulty in doing so, how
ever, is caused by the fact that al
though there are more than twice
the number OF needed eligibles, the
number of successful applicants is
distributed very unevenly," said
Doran. Some districts have a
shortage of eligibles, while in others
there are three or four times the
number required 70 fill vacancies
caused by failure of present agents"
In all districts where there is
shortage of eligibles, new examina-
tons will be held. In the meantime
in such localities the present agents
will continue to hold their jobs, even
though they failed to pass.
THE Pittsburgh and Philadelphia
districts appear to be about the
hardest hit" Doran said.

F0RDHAM, 19 TO D
Connell Does All Scoring in
Game-Passes Dazzle
New York Team.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
n YEW YORK, November 1.-THE
University Of Detroit dazzled
VI Fordham with its bag of foot
l. ball tricks at the Polo Grounds
today and won its fourteenth
consecutive game by score Of 19 to O..
All the points were made in the sec
ond and third periods. and all of them
by Connell. who tonight had los points
to support his claim to the scoring lead
ership of Middle Western teams. He
made two touchdowns In the second
period, both after S-yard sprints around
Fordham's right end. and the other in
the third quarter with 20-yard run
after he had taken pass fronb Brazil
His first and third place kicks for goal
after touchdown were blocked.
After the first period, during which
the Detroiters seemed to have stage
fright within the hollow shadows of the
Polo Grounds. the superiority of the url-
beaten invaders was evident. despite
the plucky defense displayed by Ford
ham.
Early in the second installment of
play, runs by Vachon and Brazil, a
pass to Connell and lateral pass from
Maloney to Goodnow to Brazil advanced
the pail 70 yardS ana put IL IN posltlon
for Connell's first touchdown.
Pressing their advantage, the big
red-jerseyed foe quickly scored again,
marching goalward principally on
passes to Pnelan by Brazil and Maloney,
and this time Connell kicked the extra
point from placement after he had cir
cled end for touchdown.
Brazil opened the third quarter with
dash tn coal from his Onward line
but a teammates clipping cost him the
touchdown and put the ball back on
Fordham's 37-yard line. whence he
passed to Connell for the last tally. The
teams exchanged forward passes to
neithers advantage In the games clos
ing stages, each side intercepting al
most as many as were completed.
Detroit made 13 first downs to Ford
hams six and save for the first quar-
ter was in Fordham territory most Of
the time.

Organization Of prep school basket

Prep is planned and meeting If
coaches has been called for Thursday
night at o'clock at Gonzaga College
to further the movement.
According to plans the league would
be conducted under auspices of the
Boys Club with games in the club
gym each Monday and Thursday afte:-
noon so as not to conflict with the
public high school matches on Tues
days and Fridays.
1t Is the hope of the sponsors of the
league to bring the public high and
prep school winers together at the end
of the season to decide the scholastic
title.
1t is understood that the coaches and
heads of the various schools considered
for membership in the league are favor
able to the proposed loop.
. Followers of prep school athletes
point out that organization of the
league would afford a good line on the
comparative strength of the various
ouints and probably make the task of
singing out the best team rather easy.
