Apparently the new county superintendent
of schools is guilty of grave crime against the
Coffin machine
He had the temerty to believe that he could
select his own bondsmen, or rather corporation
which writes bonds.
The Coffin commissioners believe that this
is their prerogative, and evidently ne new
official did not understand that such small com
missions as may result are to be withheld or
given at the pleasure of Coffin henchmen.
just how bond of one company will make
a better superintendent of schools out Of the
new official than one given by different COM
pany is difficult to understand.
1t is not hard to understand that in boss

over Notre Dame Props, 20 to 0, to gain
a tie for third place, and Columbia de-
feated wolverines, IS to o.
1t was a nifty drop-kick from the
30-yard line by Tuck Dalglish that gave
st. Stephens field goal and victory
over Brookland.
Scoring two touchdowns in the first
half as the result of Janney fumbles
and poor passes from center, Palace A.
c. added two more in the second half
to put the game in the bag. At the

CUMBERLAND BRIGHT
CENTRAL PROSPECT

In Frank CWhitey) Cumberland Cen
trail High apparently has one of the
best young athletes to enter public
high school here in some time.
Though only Is years old and a
sophomore. this boy already has given
evidence of outstanding ability in both
foot ball and base ball and also is ex-
pected to make his mark in basket ball.
Following the injury of Gene Colella,
Cumberland was put at quarterback this
Fall and performed in fine style. Last
Spring he held forth at second base
on the Blue and White base ball team.
1t is thought that he might be shifted
to shortstop next Spring. His position
in basket ball is guard, and he is said
to be a good one, too.
Incidentally, Cumberland formerly
attended Gonzaga. The Street school
certainly is furnishing Central some
good athletes. Larry Pinckney, the big
fullback on the foot ball team, also is
a Gonzaga product.

NAVY SEES CHANCE
TO WIN LAST GAME
Hopes to Have Best Attack
of Campaign to Throw
Against Dartmouth.
NNAPOLIS, Nov

A NNAPOLIS, November 25.-The
n game with Dartmouth in Phila-
IA delphia next Saturday with
4 a which the Naval Academy closes
its season, means much more
to the latter team than the ordinary
foot ball clash.
While the teams have no special
rivalry, both stand high enough in the
foot ball world to make the contest
one Of much interest. but the chief
significance from the standpoint Of the
Navy Is that 1t gives that team its
final chance to win big game this
year.
While the Dartmouth eleven, on the
seasons record of both appears to be
stronger, Navy people are remembering
the great comeback of their team
against Princeton in the final contest
last year, and are hoping for something
Of the same sort.
Material Is Abundant.
Further, the Navy people base their
hopes on an abundance of excellent
material, which for some reason, ap-
pears not to have reached the height
of its ability so far.
A large part of the trouble with the
Navy'S attack has been found in the
failure of its passing game, a depart
ment in which the Middies have for
some years generally been quite strong
For the past two weeks the Navy
coaches have been pointing the team
almost entirely for the Dartmouth
game, and much attention has been
given to securing greater accuracy and
deception in the passing attack.
AS for the running game, the Navy
Is as strong as 1t has ever been, but its
weakness in passing has enabled its
opponents to concentrate on stopping
its runners.
Not only is Spring, who has been the
Nays best runner during the season,
in excellent condition, but 1t now
looks as if Cannon, another fine back
of last year both as to running and
passing, will be in good fettle after hav-
ing lost the first half of the season on
account of injuries.
Clifton, the powerful fullback,, now
is in better condition than he has been
at any time this season. The full use
of two such players as Cannon and
Clifton means a great addition to the
strength of the Navy backfleld.
Plenty Of Good Backs.
With the Navy having the full use of
such valuable backs, with the addition
of Joe Bauer, Castree, Mauro, 10th,
McGrocker and Antrim, all veterans,
with Binns, Williams and Kirn, the
seasons finds, the team should be at
the peak of its offensive strength next
The squad also may have the use of
Kohlhas, another good back, now on
the hospital list.
The probable makeup of the line for
the Dartmouth game is:
Moret, left end; Bowstrom, left tao
kle; Swan, left guard; Hughes, center;
Koepke or Westhofen, right guard;
Crinkley or Bryan, right tackle, and
Byng, right end.

EAST'S GRID CARD

Army-Notre Dame Clash in

N YEW YORK, November as

next Saturday, the Eastern
foot ball Thanksgiving week program
is also featured by holiday clashes be-
tween Pennsylvania and Cornell at
Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Penn State
at Pittsburgh and West Virginia and
Washington and Jefferson at Morgan

Pittsburgh needs to scramble over
only this Penn State hurdle to finish
its season undefeated.
The Penn-Cornell fray shapes up as
close, with Cornell holding whatever
edge there is. Cornell has bowed only
to Dartmouth.
West Virginia and w. & j. will
seek to avenge slaps by other teams in
their annual game.
Another game, not so old as these
others but always productive of keen
foot ball, Is the Colgate-Brown clash,
now played annually in Providence on
the morning of Thanksgiving day. Col
gate, defeated only by Wisconsin, is the
favorite.
Dartmouth, after a rest of two weeks,
will face the Navy at Philadelphia on
Saturday in game of prime impor-
tance.
Another clash in Philadelphia on
Saturday win involve Villanova and
Temple.
On Saturday Boston College takes up
the annual defense of its home fortifi-
cations against the invasion by Holy
Cross.

While their old rivals, the Hawks,

| Harvard would have had at least six
more points, but in mufilng the ball 1t
dropped over the Yale goal, was incom-
plete and became a touchback, with
Yale getting the ball on its own 20-yard
| mark. Harvard apparently stopped
Yale's attack, although 1t did not find
the going against the Dark Blue any
thing other than rough. It was felt
that the game would be one of the
greatest ever played between the two
universities. and evidently 1t was. At
least, every newspaper man who sent
story out of Cambridge was in agree
ment on that.
Stanford's decisive victory over Cali
fornia probably was the most surpris-
ing foot ball happening of the week.
It was thought by many Of those who
know something of Warmers methods
that California would be fortunate to
escape a defeat, but 1t is doubtful If
anybody thought the game would. end
in such a one-sided Stanford victory.
Stanford lost to Southern California,
California beat Southern California, but
when the great test came it was War
ner'S eleven that came through.
Notre Dame keeps on winning. Its de-
feat of Northwestern was expected, but
there was interest in the game largely
because Notre Dame probably Is the
strongest eleven in the country and be-
cause every game such team plays Is
interesting, because of the possibility OF
it being stopped. Possibly the only other
eleven in the East that would stand an
even chance with Rockne's men Is Pitts
burgh, and II is too bad that they are
not scheduled to play.
Purdue has won the Western Con-
ference championship, and finished its
season without q defeat. George Ade
probably is happy and will continue to
write humor; Purdue really did some
game Seriously, though, the season
Purdue has had is d tribute to its team,
to its coach and to all the people who
had a part in it. ANY time any eleven
goes through a schedule so successfully
Il means that somebody is deserving of
a lot of credit for careful thought and
planning. Purdue's final victory was
simply an annihilation Of Indiana, its
traditional rival.
Illinois rose to the peak Of its 1929
power in its final game and simply
crushed Ohio State. Zuppkes men won
by a margin that seldom is seen IN
Western conference circles, when two
elevens apparently are fairly evenly
matched. Just how completely Illinois
outclassed Ohio State is shown by the
fact that it not only scored four touch
downs itself, but the closest that the
latter got to the Illini goal line was n
yards.
University Of Chicago produced sur
prise in beating the University of WASH
ington by IS to 6. 1t was pretty gen.
orally the opinion that Chicago would
be lucky to escape defeat. Chicago
seems to have abandoned It's traditional
rushing game for one consisting almost
entirely or forward passes. It tried IS
passes and completed ID Of them for
a total gain Of 800 yards.

AN noon in Gr1fhth STADIUM
the independent foot ball
championship of the Wash
ington area presumably will be at
stake, but the fight for local
laurels that for some seasons has been
confined to these elevenS may become
a three ee-cornered affair before gridiron
uniforms are put aside this year.
A new sectional title contender en-
tered the struggle yesterday when the st.
Mary's Celtic eleven of Alexandria made
a brilliant stand againstthe highly-tout-
ed Mohawks here. Only after a gruel-
ing fight were the powerful Hawks able
to bag q 7-to-6 victory over the COM
paratively little-known Alexandria out
fit.
The Hawks, noted for their sports
manship, lost little time after the game
in offering the Celtics another game so
these teams will come to grips again in
Grifflth Stadium on December 8. Should
the Hawks triumph over the Apaches
next Sunday, this second meeting with
the Alexandrians might well be recog-
nized as the battle for. sectional laurels.
In the game yesterday, the Celtics
generally outplayed the Hawks all the
way and lost only through failure to
add point after touchdown. The
Aiexandrians began hammering at the
Hawks goal shortly after the game got
under way, and kept the local aggre-
cation on the defensive much of the
time.
The Hawks were the first to score.
