HOCKEY FIGHT KEEN
IN NATIONAL LEAGUE
Teams Clustered, With Canadiens,
Blackhawks and Bruins
Setting Pace.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December I5.-After a
series Of results last week that unset
the calculations Of the first three weeks
Of play, the clubs Of the National Hockey
League are locked closer than ever in
their race for the top places in the
standing. The triumphant Montreal
Canadiens and the battered Philadel-
phia Quakers are the only teams whose
places cannot be changed In single
game.
Montreal's Maroons came up to tie
the badly crippled Toronto Leafs for Sec
ond place in the Canadian division last
night as they shut out the Chicago
Blackhawks, to 0.
Boston came up to tie Chicago for
the American group lead as the pre-
viously invincible Blackhawk attack was
stopped by the Maroons. Detroit beat
out Philadelphia, to Q Saturday, but
took 3-to-0 beating from the Rangers
last night.
No games are scheduled for tonight.

is passed to No. l, as he completes
this turn.
Meantime another Of the attack
ing players has timed his drive to-
ward the basket and his direction
SO that, as he rushes past No. /, he
leads his guard directly at No. /.
The second player is thus freed
from his particular guard, as this
guard Is either blocked on by No. !
or has to circle around No. / In
order to cover his man. In either
case he loses his man. AS No. is
teammate is thus cleared from cppo-

BASKET BALL TIPS
BY SOL METzGER

The cut back idea in basket ball
attack is simple stunt. Its sue
cess In so far as scoring Is con-
cerned depends upon legal blocking.
It Is worked in this way. A for
ward, for example, the No. l player
in the sketch, breaks for the basket.
Naturally his immediate opponent
win lead him. as the duty of de-
fensive man is to keep between his
man and the basket.
AS they get near the basket, uSu-
ally at the foul-line, the player on
attack viii make q quick pivot, thus

THE SPORTLICHT

BY CRANTLAND RICE

The Thin Line.
TE Army-Navy battle showed
again how thin the line is be-
tween a roSe-colored season and
one tinged with indigo.
The Army team was only / point
away from an unbeaten season. The
Navy had a stormy march from start to
finish. Yet when the closing whistle
blew on Saturday the two teams were
just points apart. And the Army had
to scrap and hustle to the final play
to win. When you consider the fact
that this game was well beyond the
scheduled season and past all original
objectives, 1t was a contest full Of credit
for both sides-players and coaches.
Finishing only point back of Notre
Dame, Maj. Ralph Sasse can look back
on remarkable first year for any coach.
All the more so In view Of the fact that
ne gave the Army q new system of Of
IenSe, which Is no easy thing to do in
one campaign.
And beating the Navy was no easy
JOB on Saturday. The Army met an up
and coming lineup, which played itself
out against bigger, better lire-a line
that Is just about as good as any set of
forwards 1880 foot ball can show Only
one f1rst down out of its total of three
by rushing, on the Navy's part, with
some high-claSs backs Juggling the ball
kirn, Cannon and others-shows Just
now good this Army line Is. And when
you have the stronger forward you have
q Jump on the enemy that can rarely
be overcome
The Navy did extremely well under
the circumstances, and only the agility
ana swiftneSs Of Ray Stecker gave the
Army its chance to cash in on a superior
power, shown by 13 first downs against g.
Alabama Speaks.
IN spite Of the remarkable showing
made by Notre Dame, Alabama feels
that It's own fine record is being over
shadowed Just a little too much under
the South Bend record.
Beating Vanderbilt, Tennessee and
Kentucky on three successive Saturdays
is feat equal to beating Northwestern,
Army and Southern California. It was
one Of the big jobs Of the year. Van
derbilt was strong enough to beat Min
nesota, 80 to z, the week before Min
nesota tied Stanford. Tennessee, headed
by the brilliant Dodd, was one Of the
strong teams Of the country-one of
the strongest II Alabama overthrows
yet, the Crimson tide from Tuscaloosa
can let its record tell the story without
any further debate.

Demand for Hardware
 Reported as Moderate

New York, Aug. 6.-The current hardware demand is moderate in character, according to reports re- ceived fronf leading market centers, Hardware Age will say tomorrow in its weekly market summary. The majority Of edoalers appear to have adopted a conservative purchasing policy and are biding their time un- til the usual mid summer lulI passes. Orders being received generally en- brace a wide assortment of merchan- disc, but the specified quantities Of the articles involved are usually small.
 As August is normally one of the dullest months in the year fU the hardware trade, the present 1ull is causing little concern. Most whole salers express the opinion that busi- ness vii pick up again about the first of September. A gradual improve ment is anticipated until sales volume regains normal Status.
 Prices are showing an easier tend ency in some instances, although in View of conditions quotations are considered remarkably steady.
 While the credit situation could be far more satisfactory. especially with dealers, collections in the main, while somewhat slow, have a fair average.

AID IN CHINESE REVOLT
Asks Withdrawal Of Foreign
 Troops From Orient

Moscow, Aug. P) - Pravda, mouthpiece of the communist party, today sounded clarion call to the proletarian masses and communist parties throughout the world to sup port the Chinese revolution.
 Tn each factory of enterprise and in every port of the world" the pa per said, there should be estab- lished committees for enforcing the policy of hands off the Chinese rev oluition.'
 Declaring that two large Ameri- can munitions plants and all the capitalistic countries of the world are supplying the Chinese reaction ary generals with munitions and money, Pravda urged the workers in all these countries resolutely to oppose all shipments of munitions, to carry on the active revolutionary work among the soldiers of their own countries, and to mobilize the mass es against imperialistic intervention in China.
 Pravda also urged recall of for eign military forces from China. The present Soviet organization in China constitutes a red lighthouse casting it's rays into India, Indo- China, Korea, the Philippine Islands, and the entire east and inspiring the suppressed people of these col onies to follow the example of the Chinese revolutionaries in attempt ing to overthrow the imperialistic regime"

Dawes to Devote His Vacation
 To Archaeological Researches

New York, Aug. tPj-A London dispatch to the New York Times to- day said that Ambassador Charles G. Dawes expected to devote a fort nights holiday this summer to q life long hobby archaeological research.
 He will leave London August 22 on a trip to the Dordogne region in France and to areas in Spain where important Neolithic research work is in progress. Accompanying him will be Professor George Grant MacCur- dy of Yale university, director of the American school of Prehistoric Re search. and Addison L. Green. chair man of the board of trustees of that school
 The dispatch quotes the ambassa- dor as saying his trip will be mere ly one Of observation in the com pany of high archaeological authori- ties. T admit I am interested in the study of prehistoric man and his ac- omplishments in the Mediterranean region" he said, and I feel that the work now being done should be en- couraged.
 Tn my judgment what is now needed is the more detailed and CO., ordinated study which will result from concurrent investigation in the different sections with a specific ob- jective."
 The Times recalls that the ambas- sador played as a boy among the prehistoric mounds around Mariet- Ia, Ohio, and dates his fondness for the ancient and prehistoric to these childhood conditions.
