The very thought of losing an
other game to the embattled
RamblerS of South Bend has
West Point almost beside itself,
but there are the facts for all the
world to read: Pitt beat Notre
Dame: Navy beat Notre Dame.
I'll tell you, it's heart-breaking to
contemplate the possibilities OF
that game with the Ramblers.
An Old Rivalry
Let them win or lose, the Notre
Dame Army game is the Oldest and
richest in tradition of all the in
terSectional games. 1t started in
1918 at West Point and with the
exception of 1918 when America
rolled up it's sleeves and went
overseas in a bigger scrimmage,
has been played annually. Notre
Dame was talked of then as the
little college of South Bend"
but it came to the Plains and shell
lacked Army to the tune Of IS to
10.
Not more than 1000 spectators
and a handful of football writer's
saw that game in which the late
Knute Rockne and Gus Dorais
won fame as the outstanding for
ward pass combination of the
country,
Just last night your agent
thumbed through Rockne's
"Coachin," a mastery book on
football.
In one of the quiz chapters
Rockne asked: What would you
do if you noticed an end emerge
from a scrimmage limping?"
Rock" Surely Smiled
Rockne must have written that
with a broad smile on his face.
It was in that 1918 that Rockne
pulled the limping end trick on
gullible Army secondaries. He
Just about managed to drag him

was snapped, Rockne staggered

The Army halfback ignored the

Bouts Run in Order
The bouts are run in order,
one white, one colored, until eight

Sometimes the contestants fail
to show up, as in the case of Bob

Boxing bouts are being staged
regularly in the District Of Column
bia without the supervision Of the
Boxing Commission.
Despite the fact that the boxing
law, signed by President Roosevelt
on April "a, 1884, specifically
states that mo person shall hold
a boxing exhibition in the Dis
trict of Columbia without a per-
nit from the commission" these
bouts take place at regular
monthly intervals.
Held Every Month
Outside of the fact that the con-
testants roll their pants up to
their knees in lieu of trunks, and
no decision is rendered, the bouts
are conducted strictly according
to Hoyle.

then abided by the outcome.
From the outset of the voting

BIG BYRD PLANE
: HAS SHORT TEST
Explorer Fails to Find New
Land, Reported South of
Little America.
BY the Associated Press.

LITTLE AMERICA, Antarctic, No
vember (via Mackay Radio) The
big Condor biplane william Horlick
that is to carry the heaviest response
bility of Admiral Richard E. Byrd's
long range exploration was given an
other test flight today.
Admiral Byrd took advantage OF a
4O-minute flight to direct the ponder
Gus craft Is miles south of Little
America to investigate the reported
appearance of land in that vicinity,
some distance west Of the present
southern trail.
No exposed land was seen, Admiral
Byrd said. but the ice barrier there
abouts was broken up and disturbed.
This afternoon the aviation unit
was loading the plane with gasoline
for the first exploration flight Of the
season, reconnaissance journey to
the east and southeast.
The weather, however, was not
promising. The morning was clear
and almost MINDLESS, but a streaky
wind later arose from the east. An
east wind down here usually means
storms or cloudinesS.
Pilot Harold I. June reported this
morning after short fight that the
Ross Sea was still frozen over to the
limit of vision, but a few open leads
marked by curtains of dark sea smoke
were visible.
Bernard Skinner. former Army
parachute rigger who has charge OF
the parachutes carried on all flights,
decided to relieve the monotony by
making a jump. He jumped at 1000
feet above Little America and came
drifting down. a spidery dangling fig
ure beneath an oScillating mushroom
of white silk.
Four hundred feet from the snow
he released his second chute to lessen
the shock OF landing. The chute
fouled and when he landed he was
struggling to clear himself of the
folds of silk. He landed roughly,
but was unhurt.
South Of here three Of the field
units were struggling to extricate
themselves from a trying situation.
Tractors Nos 81 and 8 have been
unable to locate a safe transit through
the crevassed area at latitude 81
south. Admiral Byrd instructed the
tractors, as well as the two Sledging
units of the geological and plateau
parties which were ahead Of them,
to retreat northward a bit and en-
deavor to find a passage around the
crevasses to the east.
Wednesday the seven dog teams of
the two advanced parties safely
threaded the crevassed area and
camped. Next morning when the
geological party reported the trectors
still had not called in, Capt. Taylor,
at Admiral Byrds suggestion, Or
dered Blackburn to return to the
other side of the crevasses and convoy
the tractors through.
One of the tractors was trapped
across the mouth of a crevasse. The
crew had unloaded it and were cau-
tiously pulling it out with the second
tractor. The crevasse was so feet deep.
The machine was finally pulled
clear.

REAR ADM|RA[C|ES
co TO TWO HERE.
Capts. Dennis and Butler
Will Be Promoted in
Medical Corps.

Two Washingtonians- John
Benjamin Dennis, on duty at the
Navy Department, and Charles s. ].
Butler, commanding the Brooklyn,
N. Y, Naval Hospital-are to be pro-
noted shortly to the rank of rear
admiral in the Medical Corps. This
was announced yesterday at the de-
partment, after President Roosevelt
had approved the findings of a Sc
lection Board. The Chief Executive
will serd the two nominations to the
Senate for confirmation after Con-
gress convenes in January.
Capt. Dennis Is now serving with
the Naval Retiring Board. the Naval
Examining Board and the Board OF
Medical Examiners at the department.
Born in Salisbury. Md, July %, 1874,
he graduated in 1895 from the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania. He came into
the Navy in 1895.
He came here in 1916 to take
charge OF the Naval Dispensary, re-
naming until 1920 In January,
1881, he became assistant chief of the
Bureau of Medicine and Surgery at
the department. He has been with
the Naval Examining Board since
June, 1888.
Capt. Butler is well known In
Washington, having commanded the
United States Naval Medical School
here. He was born in Bristol, Tenn.
March l, 1875, and graduated from the
University of Virginia in 1897. He
came into the Navy in 1900. From
July, 1921. to May. 1924. he COM
manded the Naval Medical School
here and then went to Haiti as sani-
tary engineer. There he served until
June, 1927, when he again came to
Washington and commanded the
Medical School until detached for
duty in New York. Haiti gave him
the decoration "Honneur ct Merite."

next general election when British
voters will decide whether to retain
the national government now in
power or to make a change.
1t was expected the election will
be held either in the Fall Of 1885 or
the Spring of 1886.
Macdonald, after a long vacation
across the Atlantic, took the helm
once more as head Of the government
when his physicians found his eyes
had improved. His return coincided
with the conventions and gave i'm
petus to a new drive by the govern
ment parties-Conservative, National,
Labor and Liberal National-to stir
up renewed public interest in the ac-
complishments of the national admin
istration that took office after the
election of october 81, 1881.
Fight to Be Bitter.
The policies adopted by the Con-
servative and Labor conventions show
that the fight will be a bitter one.
though both parties nave revolts on
certain issues 70 put down within
their own groups.
The Tories are split on the question
of home rule in India, which will
be the chief political matter under
discussion at the present session Of
Parliament. One group wants to give
a measure of self-rule to India, while
another group, known as the die
hards, want British control of India
retained.
In the vote on the India question
in the conservative convention the
group supporting the governments
policy won by mere % votes. an in
dication Of the intra-party fight ex-
pected on the India bill in Parliament
sAt the convention in Bristol the
Tories voted to retain the party
identity within the national govern
ment and repudiated efforts Of some
delegates to give the party national"
tinge.
But Stanley Baldwin. party leader
and president of the Privy Council,
told a conservative meeting that the
party was national in the sense that
it stood for all classes, and added that
so long as he was leader, he would
lead.
Radicals Are Beaten.
The Labor party went moderate at
its convention In Southport, the
radicals. including alleged pure So
cialists," being defeated all along the
line. The difference of opinion of GER
tain issues did not cause a split and
the radicals are hoping to swing the
executive of the party around to their
views.
The campaign is expected to be most
bitterly fought between the govern
ment parties and labor, but the opposi-
tion Liberals also are planning for
strenuous effort Sir Herbert Samuel,
leader of that group in Parliament,
plans to resume a long speaking tour
and propaganda drive interrupted by
illness.
1t is understood in political circles
that David Lloyd George wants to get
back into the arena, but the veteran
statesman says he is content to remain
in retirement.
Lloyd George has been renewing his
connections with Welsh Liberals and
these activities led to reports he might
be forming a new party. despite his
denial he is always a factor in the
political life of the nation, and OBJ
servers always keep an eye on him.
