Washington, May 10 R,-The two naval officers and the civilian en- gineer who were responsible for the invention and testing of the subma- rine lung escape device today re- ceived the highest honors the presi- dent and the navy department could confer.
 Secretary Adams, at the direction of President Hoover, awarded the distinguished service medal to Lieut.. Charles B. Momsen and Chief Gun ner Clarence L.. Tibbals who tested the device. escaping by means of it from depths as great as 306 feet. The navy department made a cash award of years pay to Frank M. Hobson, civilian engineer of the bI- reau of construction and repair, who was assisted by the others in work ing out the invention.
 Tibbals already has received the navy cross in recognition of his part in the raising of the submarine S-4. Lieut.. Momsen made a preliminary test of the lung at the time the S-4 was refloated.

Judge Sake whose likeness ap- peared in the Herald's silhouette columns last evening has every reason to pat himself on the back for a goodly number of letters were hand ed in saying lots and lots of nice things about him. We just know that he will say fine" when he sees the prize winning letter. and let's all unite in giving thanks that he isn't on the bench when he pulls that fine" stuff Mrs. Ray c. Young. 225 West Main street, gets the dollar for the following letter:
 Although . comparatively new conner to New Britain, I could not fail to recognize in Thursdays sil- houette so distinguished citizen as Morris D. Sake. member of the law firm Hungerford & Saxe, 300 Main street and judge of the city and po- lice court of New Britain.
 Judge 'Saxe is a member of some of the social clubs of the city and can be depended upon to lend his moral and financial support to any worthy cause for the betterment of the city and it's people.
 In a city of notable men. he is outstanding for his integrity and scrupulous fairness in his dealings with everyone.
 At last. at last. the mills of the gods grind slow-the likeness dis played tonight gives the editor U long felt itching to get at this gen. tleman who is noted for, his rcpartec which borders on f1ippancy some- times when he is sure that his re- marks can be interpreted by nice big open mind. His business is that intangible something which ripens into greater turn over in sales. He helps you inject pep" into your business. He ran for the council not 50 many moons ago, but the primaries saw him in the arrears be- cause of the fact that he was but a short time in New Britain. We all have hopes that he will run again and grace marble hall" with his august presence. Who is 1t? Surely the local Lions should know him. If you put an umlaut over a certain letter in this gentleman's name, you'll have word in German that characterizes him not without merit.

DEVOS NOW In LINE
TO BATTLE WALL ER
BY JOHN J. ROMANO.

NEW YORK, November 23.-Rene
Devos qualified for a match with Cham
pion Mickey Walker by winning in handy
fashion over Harry EbbetS in 10
round contest at Madison Square Gar
den last night.
The Belgian's ringcraft was too much
for the blond tiger, and the latter
flashed his hard right but several times
during the course of the contest. Early
in the opening round Harry landed
solidly on Rene's chin, and duplicated
the punch few moments later. This
served to bring the fox-like qualities Of
the Belgian to the fore so that Ebbets
had hard time of 1t, swinging all over
the place and missing with his right.
Devos boxed off at long range and
held his left high to ward off Ebbets'
right. The latter would miss, and Devos
would pike in with a series of blows
and then fay the body inside with short
blows. Time after time Devoe applied
these tactics and had Ebbets at sea.
Starting off the third round Devos
parked a beautiful left on Harry's chin.
and then bore in with q fullisade of
blows to the bonds head. The latter
did not posses enough ingenuity to
cope yS@n the better ring generalship
OF the European title holder, so that ne
was on the receiving end Of short
thrusts most of the time.
Ebbets came out for the final session
full of vim. He connected with right
and had Devos in bad way. Another
crack on the jaw, and the Belgian re-
sorted to his ring tricks. He kept in
close and did not permit his opponent
to land long range blow so that the
damage was nullified and the end of the
round and the fight found Devos just
as strong as ever and just winner.

CALIFORNIA STANFoRD-At Palo
~ Alto. This Is the Far Western foot
ball classic that for color, crowds and
action stands unsurpassed. It is the
game that will decide California'S place
in the foot ball sun for 1929. California
has gone unbeaten with victories over
Penn, Southern California and Wash
tngton. Her main achievement was the
decisive defeat of Southern California in
the latter's own gridiron bailiwick-one
of the most impressive foot ball jobs of
the year. California has four of the
best in the game this season with LON,
Eisan, Schwartz and Norton. LON has
been an outstanding back-a star who
can kick, pass, run, hit the line and
tackle with any one who happens to be
around. On all the dope California
ought to win. Pop Warner may get
Stanford clicking and the margin either
way will be extremely close. But STAN
ford has shown no back to compare
with Iona big, rangy, hard-running
side-stepping star who can handle any
job that comes his way.
nURDUE-INDTANA-At Bloomington.
L The moonlight should be fair to-
night alo,,g the Wabash again. If it
isn't they will be dragging the Wabash
for George AIDES body. And John Nc
Cutcheon may be right with him. This
is Purdue's last start after the greatest
season in her history, a season that will
bring the Western Conference cham
pionship her way, unless something out
of the ordinary happens. Purdue has
much better foot ball team than In
diana can send to the field. But any
team that has won every game up to
it's last stand is always liable to pay
the penalty of nerve wear and tear and
nerve depletion. Still, with such stars
as WEIGH, Yunevitch, Harrison, Red
Sleight and others, 1t would be q true
upset If Indiana won. taking into con-
sideration the fact That Indiana was
good enough last Saturday to beat
Northwestern, the team that beat IL
linois.
EORDHAM BUCKNELL - At New
l. York Maj Frank Cavanaugh has
brought his Fordham team unbeaten
through a tough schedule, but today he
is face to face with his main trouble
of the year. Bucknell has been coming
like a streak, while Fordham is due to
show the result of long, hard season
that began with preparations to beat
N. 7. u. early in October. Fordham
has high class foot ball team, but
the odds today are slightly in favor of
Bucknell But this will be a contest to
the final play between two hard-scrap-
ping outfits. 1t will be largely ques-
ton as to whether Fordham has enough
fire left after tive months of hard play.
NEW YORK UNIVERSITY RUT-
IN GERS-At New York. While New
York University ought to get by in this
meeting. the Violet will have to keep
a close eye on Jack Grossman, a 200A
pound ripping, .shifty back. Rutgers
has been coming at fast clip lately
land will be dangerous all the way.

STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE

Suppose you had knocked your second
shot up on the green at the seventeenth
hole at Columbia and the caddie had
triumphantly announced that you had
a 6-foot putt for birdie 3, and when
you came up to the green you found
the ball in the hole for an eagle 2?
Your natural inquiry would be, How
in the name of the gods of golf did
that bali get there when the caddie
saw it stop s feet from the hole?"
1t all happened on that hilltop
second shot is played onto a plateau
green set far up on top of an eminence
and eagle eyes are needed to see where
the second shot stopped. A. r. Mackley
was the gent in question who knocked
his second shot up to within putting
distance of the hole and was con-
graduating himself on good second
shot and possible birdie. How his
ball got in the hole was a mystery until
the players who had just driven off
the fifteenth tee explained it.
Here is how it happened: Mackley
was playing with Harris Fleming and
Fleming also had good tee shot to
the fiat below the green. After Mack
ley had played his second shot to the
green Fleming played his and the ball
went to about the same spot $50 they
thought) that Mackley's ball had gone.
Imagine their surprise when they found
Fleming's ball on the green about 10
feet from the cup and Mackleys ball
in the hole. Fleming's ball, pitched
high in the air, had struck Mackley S
ball on the carry at such an angle and
with such force as to knock Mackleys
pellet into the hole for an eagle 2. Now
would that be called rub of the green,
plain luck, or what? Under any rule
we ever have heard of it would be a
combination of luck and certainly would
be rub of the green, in this case a
favorable one for Mackley. Anyhow, 1t
is the first instance we ever have heard
OF ball being struck on the carry by
another ball and knocked into the hole
The New York professional delegation
whom Fred Mcleod was going to meet
in Chicago for the trip to California
from the Windy City played a mean
trick on the little Columbia mentor.
Mcleod had planned to leave Washing
ton today for Chicago, and he got in
touch yesterday with the representatives
of the railroad over which he was to
go, asking him to find out on what train
the New York pros were to go. To his
dismay the answer. came back that the
New York delegation had already left,
and that left Mcleod out, like a light.
So he and A. L.. Houghton of Harper
will leave Washington tomorrow or
Monday, travelling by way of st. Louis.
