RMY-NAVY
CAME CLOSE
BY JACK CUDDY

United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Nov. %. - Those
green -jersied young men from No
ire Dame, among other accom-
plishments this season, have in
jected real wallop into the re-
newal of gridiron relations be-
tween Army and Navy at Phila-
delphia on Saturday
If the South Bend Ramblers can
be used as a measure, it's going
to be mighty hard to pick Ger
tain winner in this first officially
scheduled football meeting of the
Cadets and Midshipmen since 1927.
This element of uncertainty, COM
bined with the tradition and pa
eeantry of the game, should pack
Franklin field to its 10000 capaci-
ty.
Before the soldiers played Notre
Dame at Yankee stadium Satur-
day, Army was easily a 2 to fav-
orite to sink the future admirals
who have the worst 1882 record
of any important college eleven in
the east. But the Ramblers' 21-0
triumph over the Cadets changed
the situation considerably.
AS rip" Millers Midshipment
pointed toward their 33rd clash
with Army, they floundered through
the season with record of two
wins, five defeats and one tie. It
appeared to be one of the worst
teams since Annapolis and West
Point started football hostilities
back in 1890 Some thought the
sailors had begun to click when
they held Columbia to a To VIC
tory, but others pointed out that
Clifford Montgomery, Columbia S
ace back was in the game only a
few minutes.
Meanwhile the Cadets marched
proudly through opposition, hailed
as one of Army's greatest elevens.
They trounced Yale 200 and
crushed Harvard 400. Only Pitts
Panthers could stop them, 1913
before the Notre Dame ,rout.
Navy Held Irish
But 1t seemed that Navy's play
ers really had begun to click in
that Columbia game Two weeks
later they went to Cleveland and
held Notre Dame, on a muddy
field, to q 1919 victory-the same
Ramblers who beat Army 21-0
Hunk" Anderson used the same
manpoWer as in the Army game.
Another fact that confounded
the experts was that Notre Danes
heavy, powerful team had the ad-
vantage of muddy, mirey field
against Navy. The Cleveland field
was far sloppier than the slightly
soggy turf at Yankee stadium Sat-
urday. The Ramblers are an ex-
cellent mud team.
Yet, Annapolis actually gained
more yardage by rushing than did
the Cadets against the Ramblers.
The sailors advanced II yards by
rushing while Army made only 81.
Both were held to four downs.
However, Notre Dame made 30
first downs against Navy and only
II against Army. The green shirts
gained 282 yards by rushing against
the admirals and 273 against the
soldiers. I'll.

Charity Assisted
By Strip Golf

LOS ANGELES, Nov. %. UP)-
Whoever confined the game of golf
to 18 holes drew a round of ap-
plause today from Gene MCGEE
and d. Mcleod
For had the course been ex-

these two blushing worthless would
have been stripped down TO less

In the full habiliments of full
dress, MCGEE and Mcleod started
out with T. D. Lewis and Stuart
White in a charity benefit match.
The rules were the same as strip
poker.
At about the third hole, MCGEE
end Mcleod started "peeling" And
they kept on "peeling" until the
final putt was sunk when they
were down to their shorts and silk
hats.
Lilacs were in blossom in Shasta

COMMENT ON
SPORT WORLD
BY HENRY McLEMORE
United Press Staff Correspondent

BY HENRY McLEMORE
UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Nov. 2S.-Congrat-
uations to Mr.. Harry Mendel for
his exquisite sense of the fitness OF
things. With the whole world to
choose from. Mr.. Mendel selected
Burns and Allen to fire the revol
yer that started the six-day bicycle
riders on their mad mad way.
Six day bike races are fine things
In fact, the only thing wrong
with them is that they are about
six days too long.
Name the greatest sports upset
you can think of, and it pales into
insignificance when placed along
side Oglethorpe uniyersity's victory
in the dinghy regatta of the In
tercollegiate Yacht Racing associ-
alton here Saturday. Located some
eight or 10 miles outside Of At
lanta, Oglethorpe has only Silver
Lake and the Chattahocchee Ri
yer on which to go dinghying.
Silver Lake woula be swell for
yachting if you couldn't throw
Kate Smith across its widest point
The Chattahoochee, undoubtedly
the muddiest stream of all time,
would be a great dinghy grounds,
were it not for the fact that you
couldn't drown a Singer midget in
its deepest point, and that it Is
inhabited by catfish who'll eat any,
thing, including dinghy bottoms.
We know how hungry they are,
having caught them there using
nothing more enticing than the
worn out cuff of worn out flannel
pajama leg for bait.
BY the way, what is dinghy2
Add famous haircuts No. %.
Pop Warmers, which is a cross be-
tween the one sported by Toscan-
inni and the late william j. Bryan.
Whatever happened to Benny
Leonard?
II America doesn't win the Da-
Wis cup next year we won't be
able to use lack of practice for an
alibi. For half the American team,
headed by Ellsworth Vines, has
been playing without halt since
January. Latest reports have them
somewhere in the South Seas and
going strong.
Speaking of tennis, isn't it about
time for Jean Borotra to announce
his absolute retirement from Davis
cup play? Jean must be slipping,
it wasn't SO long ago that you could
set your watch by his retire
ments.'
Lots of us are still trying to fig
ure out what Avery Brundage, pre-
sident of the Amateur Athletic as
ISOLATION, meant when, in debate
about the advisability of rating
life guards as professional SWIM
mers, he said In some municipal
tiles life guards are not allowed to
go in the water while on duty"
Wouldn't those municipalities be
swell places to get the cramps!
In Georgia, by the way, the law
says all life guards must wear red
bathing suits, walk up and down
the beach all the time, and carry
200 feet of life line around their
neeks That's enough to make any
body a professional crouch.
Louisiana State must feel proud
today, having proved to the whole
world that its football, despite the
handicap of health, can whip Tu-
lane eleven all popped up with in
tluenza.
The rest of the country may need
five cent cigar, but Louisiana
needs a chapter Of the sportsman
ship brotherhood.

FAVORED PLAINTIFF
Hughes and Mann Say L. Van
Hook Indebted to McCurdy
For Blood TRANSMISSION

Charges of misconduct on the part
OF juror were advanced in district
court here Saturday as a reason for
judgment Notwithstanding the verdict
or new trial in the case of F. E. Nc
Curdy, Bismarck attorney, VS.. E. A
Hughes and George D. Mann.
The misconduct alleged was that L.
Van Hook, 523 Sixth ST., a juror in
the case in which McCurdy obtained
a verdict for $4,000 in libel action
against Hughes and Mann, failed to
disclose the fact that he had received
two blood transfuSions from McCurdy.
McCurdy, resisting the motions to
reopen the case, admitted through his
attorney that the blood transfusions
had been made but asserted the event
took place in 1918, not 1929.
Presenting the matter to Judge R..
G. Mcfarland in district court, E. B.
Cox and Alfred Zuger attorneys for
Hughes and Mann, asserted it was OBJ =
viously impossible for fair trial to
be had in view of the fact that q
member of the jury had the plain
tiff's own blood in his veins.
Cox was joined with Hughes and
Mann as defendant when the case
was tried. but the jury found in his
favor in its verdict.
Cox asserted that Van Hooks action
made hollow mockery" of the trial
which lasted six days, ending last Dec.
