It's un- thnkable my dear Foxworthy!
 Seriously the vote on the Olympic issue particularly if it's close may bring about complete or partial dlS- banding of the Amateur Athletic Union which has kept to itself pretty good thing in the handling of amateur athletes and provided nice fat jobs for the dignfed deadheads who like to be known as Headers and who operate on the principle of "every man for himself as long as the AAU does not suffer, for that would be killing the goose that has laid some golden eggs of enormous size Avery Brundage former A.

Naugatuck, Dec. 6-The Nauga- tuck "Y" volley ball team will re- sume its play tomorrow afternoon when it will meet the South Man. chester Recreation association sex tet in the local "Y". This match was scheduled to be a round robin with Stamford included but the down. state team was unable to play be- cause of business pressure on Satur- days.
 Manager Edgar Wyatt is lining up matches with other teams now. Nau- gatuck has received an invitation to play in proposed state league and may participate in round robin tourney at Bridgeport with the Bridgeport and Queens, N. Y. teams. This is expected to be held within a few weeks.
 Even Match
 The team has been going along smoothly thus far but South Man chester should give it good test. The Manchesterites have the best defensive combine in the state and any point its opponents get is usual- ly well earned. Some sparkling ral- lies are likely. Practice will be held tonight.

 Fine Grid Drama
By GEORGE KIRKSEY

OuAtCU ' ECoo OS1A OVkECSpUAuCAb New York, Dec. 6-(UP)-A few personal opinions and observations on the football season:
 Greatest come-from- behind team -Notre Dame, which beat Ohio State and Pitt in the last few min- utes, tied Army in the last minute and came from behind to defeat Southern California and Carnegie Tech.
 Keenest regret-That Minnesota and Princeton couldn't meet in a post-season game.
 Biggest upset-Carnegie Techs 70 victory over Purdue when the Boilermakers were unbeaten, united and unScored on.
 Best coaching job-Bernie Bier mans development of another na- tional championship team at Minne- sota after losing IA players from his 1884 team.
 Grid Class
 Most dramatic player-Andy Pill ney, who led Notre Danes winning charge against Ohio State and then waved to the crowd while being car- ried of the field on a stretcher.
 Greatest individual player-Jay Berwanger, Chicago halfback, who singlehanded, made weak team dangerous.
 Toughest break-Pass interference being called on Whitey Grove, Army back, on the 2-yard line, which en- abled Notre Dame to get 6-6 tie. Most valuable kicker-Monk Mos crip, Stanford end, who booted field goals to beat Southern California Washington and Santa Clara.
 Most costly error-Joe Maniaci Fordham safety man, allowing a punt to hit his shoulder, roll over the goal and be recovered by St. Mary's for the touchdown which gave the Galloping Gaels 7-7 tie. Shocking!
 Most daring play in pinch-S. M U. passing from midheld on fourth down in the final period of the T. o. U. game with the score tied, 14-14 Finley passed to Wilson for the win- ming touchdown.
 Most broken hearted fans-O Ohio States, after Notre Dame defeat.
 Best cheering section-Navy's.
 Best display if sportsmanship-El- mer Layden, Notre Dame coach, giv- ing Bill Shuler, Army captain. the football after the Cadet-Irish game and saying: "Here, Bill, you boys outplayed us and deserved to win , Bill Shakespeare had matched Shul- CT for the ball and won. Best showmen - Lloyd Russell Baylor quarterback. who sings as he runs, and Tippy Dye, midget Ohio State quarterback, who directs traf- flo returning punts by pointing to his mates where he wants his path , blocked.
 Most over-rated team-New York D.. which wasn't exposed as Q weak team until It's final game with Ford- ham.
 Best loser-Lou Little. Columbia coach who never squawked, despite his teams sad season. Best finish - Louisiana State which won nine straight games af. ter losing the opener to Rice, i0-7.
