battle to the last ditch Coach Hughes
Blues are inpatiently awaiting the
opener.
Today practice was centered around
the offense and defense formations with
the majority of the backfleld material
taking turns at kichking the pigskin
for distance and position. Before game
time Saturday Coach Hughes expects to
know definitely the lineup and the
best hooters on the team. There are
now several good kickers available, but
none have proved outstanding. Rabbit
Ringle, last years mainstay has i'm
proved his yardage, but Ruddy Gamblin,
linesman, has shown an even greater
improvement in covering distance.
Konrad Hokanson, Boyce Williams, An
ton O'Branovich and Jimmy Rayhill
are all Numbering their toes.
Faculty Shows Interest.
On the Blues campus there Is an air
of material interest in the team. Even
the faculty members, usually aloof, have
shown their interest by watching the
boys workout. When the faculty is in
terested there is liable to be some fire
works" in the games played on the
nome lot. Gauaudet, q small-Sized COL
lege has always managed to put forth
foot ball team much more powerful

rants. Last year Curly Byrds Old Lin
ers felt the whole power of the Blues
when they barely won 1877 In a hair
raising game at College Park.
At recent meeting Of the Gallaudet
College Athletic Association It. was
agreed that base ball would be abolished
for the coming year. Track will take
up the time usually employed by base
ball. During the last few years the
base ball material has been so poor that
the team has made only fair showing.
Poor guarantees and gate receipts have
made the financial part of the sport
dependent upon the surplus in the as
sociationS treasury. Last year base ball
barely broke even. It is hoped that the
sport will be resumed when more suit
able material is at hand, which Is ex-
pected to be in about two seasons.

Few Utilities Singled Out for
 Special Attention

New York. Dec. 4 LP-The curb market struggled against specula- tive apathy again today, Trading slipped back to the low volume seen curly in the week, with prices shad- ing lower during the greater part of the session. Professional operators provided most of what activity there was.
 The small declines were well dis tributed. and in active issues re- mained within fractional bounds. A few utilities were singled out for special attention by the bears, but the general movement of this group was unusually narrow. American Gas & Electric on which a 20 per cent stock dividend has been de- clared, continued to sag, while As sociated Gas &; Electric remained under pressure. United Light ''B'' Lad another drop of several points
 Interest in the industrials and oils was light. Cities Service eased un- der fairly active selling during the first couple of hours, but steadiec when offerings dwindled. Vacuum, lost about point.
 Investment trust and holding com pany shares appeared on the tape ir considerable volume and small de- clines prevailed. American Found CTS made new low.
 Call loans renewed on the curb at 27 per cent, although the under tone of the money market was slightly easier.
