Doomed!
Victim of Iron Claw Is
Helpless; Policemen
Prey of Monster
BY WILLIAM II. MGAUGHEY
Times stan Writer

DEWAREi The Iron Claw IS
ID an -hovering peril that has
thrown the police station into a
turmoil for the last few days.
Frenzied policemen, endeavoring
10 flee from the clutches OF the
relentless claw, find themselves
pOwerless to escape it.
At frequent intervals during the
day or nights. screams Of protest
that ring out through the halls Of
headquarters announce the fact
that the claw has seized another
victim.
Not a sinister hand that seeks
to clutch at the lily-white throat
Of helpless herOines in the man.
ner OF movie serials, the Iron
Claw" rather is a handcuf device
designed TO aid policemen in max
ing arrests.
Though the claw has all the
innocent appearance Of a minia-
ture pair Of ice tOngs, II has caused
more commOtiOn around headquar-
tiers than the combined activities
Of the c-Nnk Hand and athletes

Y. Smith STANCE, the inventor,
Is IN Indianapolis selling the de-
vice to members Of the police force.
Through years Of practice he is
adroit in manipulating the hand
cuff.
TUE to the fact that STANCE
II leaves several sample pairs
around while he places orders, the
police station has turned into
center of sore wrists.
No cop is safe. If he pauSes a
moment to day-dream. one of his
fellow workers may slip up from
behind with one Of the samples and
clamp the handcuff on for prac-
tice. As the Iron Claw" slips on
much easier than it comics off,
many a policeman finds that he
has a catch and then can not re-
lease his victim.
How do you get this darn thing
off" many cops ask. as they come
sheepishly up to STANCE with their
scOwling victims.
With a flip of the thumb and a
turn of the wrist STANCE operates

able to release their prisoners as
quickly as they catch them.
". SMITH STANCE was for
i eleven years the nemesis of
criminals while on the detective
force of the New York police de-
partment.
While arresting three Negroes in
Brooklyn fifteen years ago, he was
attacked by their friends and cut
from ear to ear. he claims.
When he left the hospital, the
detective ran upon a device in the
Museum of Natural History in New
York that had been used by the
government of Borneo to throttle
natives convicted of capital crimes.
Made of wood, it worked like a
tourniquet.
With this idea in mind, STANCE
fashioned his Iron Claw With
il an arresting officer can exert a
terrific grip. If the offender twists
or tries to pull away, the claw au-
tomatically tightens. until the
nerve at the point of pressure is
numbed.
STANCE declares that his inven-
ton is more humane than a club
or a blackjack. as it easily sub
dues the prisoner while not mark
ing him.
Police IN twenty-eight states
have adopted the Iron Claw in
lieu of clubs. More than 200 men
on the Indianapolis force have
bought the device this week.

NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-Riding
high, wide and handsome on the
crest Of successive victories over
Virginia, Penn and Notre Dame,
the Navy goat dropped in here to,
day to take a wallop at the Co.
lumbia line.
The Navy goat never has sue
ceeded in this laudable ambition
but the boys along Broadway are
laying II to 10 he will make the
grade this time.
Football followers-outside the
Columbia Campus-base their pre-
diction of a naval victory on the
remarkable fighting spirit shown
by the middies in all their games.
This outfit is one Of the fight
INCEST teams that ever sunk cleats
in a gridiron.
But the middies feature Notre
Dame offense and Big Lou Little,
coach Of Columbia, has always
had what it takes to stop an N.
D. attack and that is a low, hard
charging line and q smashing
pair of ends.
Berries, Chung-Hoon and the
other middle backs are not likely
to race much around Columbia's
wings nor should they go far
through the line.
Nor is Columbia's elusive Cliff
Montgomery a whit more likely
to spread eagle the MILDLY field.
Therefore, the game probably
will hinge on what the teams can
do to each other via the air
route and in this respect. Colum-
bia may hold a slight edge. Note
that may" for this game is one
of the hardest Of the day to dope
in advance.
Taking Them on a line through
their respective victories over Vir-
ginia, they would appear to be as
evenly matched as two brewery
truck horses.

If that little fact doesn't gen.
crate some interesting thoughts,
even in the dullest Of minds. then
a sledge-hammer should be
brought forth as an educational
weapon.
G. w. Fumbles
w. and j. became a mighty
dangerous outfit after that Sec
ond G.. w. touchdown. The
Presidents, undaunted, go down
to the task of taking over the
offensive duties of the first half
w. and j. went to the attack
with gusto.
A tumble gave the Presidents
possession Of the ball at G. WIS
36-yard marker. A reverse,
through right tackle, gave the
visitors seven yards, and a crack
at left guard made it first down
at G. WIS 26-yard line.
A forward pass, out to the left,
was good for 10 yards. King
spun through left tackle to the
9-yard SCr1pe. A pass, neaCIy
executed, over the middle Of the
line, accounted for W. and Us
touchdown. When the ball
holder fumbled the pass from
center it caused w. and j. to
lose a chance to kick the extra
point. ,
with the score 10 to 6 against
them, the Presidents went to the
attack for the remainder Of the
half but it availed them nothing,
except a lot Of ground gained.
It will be difficult to take out
of the Colonials the confidence
born of their thought:
"Well, we scored more points In
10 minutes against w. and j.
than Pitt and Carnegie Tech
together did in 100 minutes OF

Hargett has been steadily COM

PURDUE LOOKS
FOR VICTORY

NOTRE DAME. Ind, Nov. II
Purdue's confident football legion
convened today - not to see its
team meet Notre Dame for the
first time in 10 years, but to see
it beat Notre Dame for the first
time in Is seasons.
Good reason they had for their
confidence. Their football eleven
has been unbeaten in five games,
while the Irish have been able to
snatch but one victory from the
debacle of early season hopes.
This was the big chance for
Notre Danes mystery football
team. Here's a squad that was
called the greatest in the Middle
West a few weeks ago. Yet, has
lost three games and been tied
once. It has scored only two
touchdownS all season.

cooked his arm for the toss.
Just as he was about to shoot
it, Benefited, G. w. left tanker
crashed into the thrower. The
ball sort Of sputtered forward

For the third time this year,
q Yale team that has only one

The odds would appear to be
justified with the several re
