another bank six blocks away, they had
better luck, securing $4,000 and making q

Again the irony of fate is seen in the
death of an aviator through asphyxiation

fact that when things go right one is safe

safe nowhere.

In repelling Kentucky, 34-14, at Lexington, Alabama scored it's first touchdown from the eight-yard line in the opening period with the end around play diagrammed above.
 The same maneuver, with Hut son, the left end, again carrying, resulted in a touchdown from the nine-yard line that toppled Ten nessee, 13-6
 Alabama's backs shifted to the right.
 In the Kentucky game, the ball went to Dixie Howell, who half spun, and slipped it to Joe Dem- yanovich, as Hutson started on his end around.
 Demyanovich faked to the right side of the Kentucky line, drawing over the Wildcats defensive backs, and gave the ball to Hutson.
 Angelich, halfback, took out Rupert, Blue and White captain and left end. Bob Morrow, right guard, pulled out of the line, and cut around to block out Bert John son, the defensive left halfback. Riley Smith, quarterback, took out another defensive back.
 Hutson cut inside to Rupert.

His youth, ability, relations with press and radio and his current connection with the circuit are ex- pected to win a majority vote of the eight National club owners in today's executive meeting.
 He would succeed venerable John A. Heydler, who announced his resignation Friday because of poor health, following revelations that he had private detectives watching certain teams in the closing stages of the pennant race to forestall any possible scandal. Heydlers resignation will become effecting Dec. Ii.
 Heydler is retiring from the combined offices of president ana secretary treasurer, but he IS ex- pected to be named lifetime hon. orary president, on salary, In ap- preciation of his 16 years service as league head. This honorary ap- nointment also would be nice gesture on the part of club owners to show the baseball world that there was no connection between Heydler's retirement and the oe- tective revelations although they conicided closely.
 Another Promotion.
 It is understood that the owners plan to split up the position com bination and give the secretary treasurer post to Harvey Traband of New York who was Heydlers private secretary for many years.
 Proposals that Heydler recon sider his resignation, take a one year leave of absence and return to his post at the end of that time, have been rejected. In failing health, he wishes to shift the re- responsibilities to younger shoulders: That would leave him free to travel during the winter. He plans gong to Mexico in January.
 Several owners arrived last night but each had no comment to make on the election.

GRAND RECREATION LEAGUE
Larson Creates Record strine

Eric "Swede" Larson. the flaxin haired youth, set new high sim gle for the league when he knocked off I'll string. That string with 119 and 133 tied Louis Piedmonte's 423 high three. This fine nights work enabled "Swede" to be on top of the high average men, passing out Johnnie Brick. He now leads Johnnie by one point, the latter only topping off 338 for the evening. Nice work, Eric. Who was it that ran out of the alleys just at the completion of the AS and Cubs match? It couldn't have been on account of a 292 to- tai, could it?
 Phil Hamel, our past worthy secretary, was elected to the rules committee by our proxy, Jim monte's occupation keeps him away from too many meetings. | Looking over the list of bowlers this season, we run across eight men who are charter members of this league who are still prize shooters who are as follows: P. l SooCys Al AsoNSht A<. 4 ASAAAOhtOt O' Berube, R. Kuester, P. Hamel, J. Hamel and Ed O'Reilly.
 The Tigers did not like being so close to the bottom of the league so they just removed three games from Grandpa" Art Brolet's Red Sox. The Tigers rolled a 500 game during this match. "Zira' Shea was missing on the Sox team. We wonder if he took in the mar athon that night.
 The Cubs caught theAAAAA's on a bad night and took two. Jim Alexander's 145 and Jim Cooney's | 139 stood out.
 l McHugh's Yankees took two from Casey's Giants. Martin and l Mango rolled we'll for the winners. De Rita, new man on the Giants roster, rolled we'll for the losers.
 The Braves Cor the"Swedes' as l they are better known) took two. | one a 611 game from the Pirates. Roden and Larson took honors for the winners, Charlie Brown and Jud Daly for the losers. Last week the rules committee classified all bowlers in their respective classes. The committee after four hours work were satis- fled at their selection. Friday night in four minutes some of the bowlers were not satisfied. So, notice! A special meeting of the rules committee will be held at the alleys this Friday, November g., at 2 o'clock, to discuss the argu- ments, etc, of the bowlers. All cap tains are urged to be present, as this is a very important meeting. On our honor roll this week ln- clude: Larson 423; Mango 364. Brown 357, Daley 354, Alexander 352, Martin 351, De Rita $50, Bro let 34S, Coppolo 344, P. Hamel 344, R. Hamel 344, Roden S44, F. Brick 341.

held on a first degree murder
charge. The prosecutor said:
"Her story, linked with that
of James Campbell, brother of
the slain man, has completed
our case. We are of the Opin-
ion that Martin thought the
Campbells were after his
mOney-that is the only motive
we can develop for the shoot

The intensified efforts, abetted
somewhat by American Legion
groups, put the parade and other
festivities over in a big way, but
the finest piece of business Messrs.
Duncan and Dan S. Hollenga,
business manager of the chamber
of commerce, did was to insure
the next convention in Alexan-
dria.
The convention was deadlocked
on the matter of the next conVen.
ton city and frantic hackers OF
Alexandria sent out a distress call
for Mr.. Hollenga. That gentle
man responded nobly and his elo,
quence is largely credited with
swinging the tide in Alexandria's
favor.
Perhaps no real estate was sold
during the convention, but there
were many volunteer firemen, rep
resentative citizens of their re-
spective communities. who were
heard to praise the advantages
and beauties of the little Virginia
city.
Maybe the Washington Real
Estate Board might have done a
good thing to sponsor a Washing
ton convention. But it can do as
we'll by sponsoring a line of march
for the next parade that will ex-
tend from city to city. That will
be unselfish and will at the same
time display the advantages of
both cities.
Among the many amusing Incl
dents that happened during the
revelries Of the convention oc-
cured at Belle Haven Country
Club Saturday night.
There were many officers from
the Navy destroyers Fox and
Humphreys at the dance. And,
of course, Lewis Kane, well
known in Alexandra building
circles, was there also.
Mr.. Kane apparently knew that
the firemen were in town but
was not aware of the presence of
the gold-braided and blue-serged
naval contingent. He was heard
to call from the bar in the grill
room to friend upstairs:
"COme on down, Charley, and
have one on me. Bring the
fire-laddies down, tOO.'
