that France and Italy r together
and are trying to map out a common
program for q conference to settle
all the problems arising In the Dan
ubian valley, Hitler Is worried. His
immediate ~objectives are Bulgaria,
Hungary and Yugoslavia.
GOering wined and dined with the
Bulgarian king and his principal
ministers. 1t was not hard for him
to put q good case to them. BulRa-
rians and Germans fought OF the
same side in the World War. Their
countries .were both bound fast by
rigid peace treaties. They both lost
territory. They wer both restricted
as to the size Of the army they could
have. Naturally Goering could tell
the Bulgars he hoped to see the
day when they defied the treaty and
built up q bigger army just as Ger
many is now doing and making the
former Allies like it.
He could use the same line with
the Hungarians, who had also fought
on the same side as the Germans.
Goering got almost immediate re-
suits in Hungary. General Goem5os.
the Premier, In a speech on foreign
policy said his country was bound
to respect q mighty rearmed Ger
many. He went on to say that
Hungary was at the end Of its pa
thence. 1t demanded the right to
have an army and an air force equal
to those of the Little Entente.
Plays Different Card
When Honeymooning Hermann
came TO Yugoslavia, he had to
| whistle q different tune. NLa0-
slavia with Czechoslovakia and hOu-
mania constitutes the Little Entente.
The one card Goering formerly held
has been destroyed. Before he could
work on the Yugo slav fear of Ital-
ian aggression. But recently Mus
solini removed that at one stroke
by making friendly advances to the
Serbs. Furthermore, Yugoslavia, no
more than Czechoslovakia Ind Rou-
mania, wishes to see a heavily arm
ed Hungary or Bulgaria.
But Goering played a different
card this time. 1t was the dollar
and cent me. It was the offer Of a
certain market for Yu~goslavia's ag-
ricultural products. 1t is the same
bait already held out to Roumania.
To block Italy's Danubian schemes,
to weaken the chain Of alliances with
France, Hitler desires to break up
the Little Entente. leaving Czecho-
slovakia high and dry. Goering may
not have accomplished the job COM
pletely, but he has demolished some
fences which Italian and French
diplomats will have to rebuild in Bel
grade.

LONDON, Aug. 8-When the
European diplomatic maneuvers OF
1895 are recorded IN the pages Of
history, there may be a chapter en-
titled: "Honeymooning Hermann
For the unexpected political turn
taken by what ostensibly was mere
ly General Hermann Goering's we'd
ding trip has given a number OF
Europe's statesmen acute headaches
and all the results of the mo. 2
Nazi's" Balkan visits aren't known
yet.
Actually he now has come to be
Germany's foremost diplomat. Cen
eral Goering, chief executive OF the
Reichstag. Of the Prussion govern
ment and Of the air forces. has de-
yeloped into the most efficient per-
sonage in Hitler's encourage. When
he needed a buccaneer to ride rough
shod over the Reichstag before II
was 100 per cent pure Nazi, Hitler
found his man In Goering. When
the Reichstag fire gave him his OPP
~portunity, Goering suppressed op-
position political parties with
thoroughneSs. Last summer. when
Hitler decided to purge" his party
of people he wanted removed, Goer-
ing ruthlesSly supervised the "exe-
cutions" In Berlin. while Hitler did
the job In Munich.
Hrman-ness Makes Him Able
Diplomat
On form, therefore. Goering ought
to be a poor nan to be entrusted
with a diplomatic job. But he does
rot run true to form. He is not all
ruthleSSneSs. Unlike Hitler an d
most OF his lieutenants, Goering en-
joys the fleShpots, the good wines
and the fat cigars. He is none Of
your pale fanatics. The other Nazi
leaders 90 about with tremendously
earnest faces. Only Goering knows
how to smile easily and give vent to
an amused, II often sinister chuckle.
Somewhere in his corpulent body
there Is a senSe Of humor. No jokes
are told about Hitler. 1t is too dan
gerous. But the tales are myriad
about Goering and his love of med
ais. titles and uniforms. Apparent
ly he enjoys them as much as any
body, because one of the wedding
gifts sent TO him was an album with
a record OF all the cartoons and fun
ny stories.
With such q disposition, he has
proved himself to be an able diplo-
mat. Hence his belated wedding trip
Of some weeks ago to the Balkan
states.

During 1885, he carried the ball

ANNAPOLIS, Nov. 20. - The
football game between the Army
and Navy teams in Philadelphia
Saturday will be the thirty-siXth
in a series which legan in 1890
and which has had several inter
ruptions.
After the game of 1893 no game
was played until 1899, the officials
of both departments having de-
cided that the games caused TOO
much interruption of the training
routine of cadets and midship-
men.
There was no game played in
1909 because the Army captain,
Cadet Byrne, was fatally injured
in the game between his team
and that Of Yale.
None in '28 and '29
No games were played in the
World War years, 1918 and 1919.
On account of the disagreement
over eligibility rules, the teams
did not meet in 1928 and 1929,
and the games of the two fol.
lowing years were regarded as in
formal.
The Army has won 19 of the
games played, the Navy 13. Three
have been draws. Between 1921
and 1884 10 games were played,
the Army winning eight. with two
draws, but in the latter year the
Navy broke through and won by
3 to 0 in the mud Of Franklin
Field.

Two former high school team
mates will be opposing each other
in tomorrow'S battle. Fred Te-
haan, Georgetown guard, and Jim
Draper, Green Terror back, went
to Western High School together,
and played on the same football
team. In high school, it was
Tehaan's job to pave the way for
Draper.
Tomorrow, the Hoya guard will
be attempting to put a stop to
Draper's running.
For Georgetown, it will be the
last game for three of its players.
Co-CaptainS Joe Meglen and Wal
ter Heron, and Leo Curley will be
playing their final collegiate game.
The HoyaS will probably start
the same team against western
Maryland that faced Maryland
last week. AL Snyder and Dave
Noonan will be at the ends, Glen
Stralka and Cy Cummings at
tackle, Johnny Frank and Herb
Stadler at guard, Red Hardy at
center. Tommy Keating at quar-
