Minutes, Then Slaves Off

C0LORFUL $1,000 CROWD
SEES SERVICE CONTEST
Grove Is Prime Factor of Cadet
Attack-Schmidt, Star of Fray,
Gets Tar Touchdown.
BY ALAN GOULD,
Associated p-ess Sports Editor.

PHILADELPHIA, November 3d.
Army fred all its long-range scoring
ammunition today in the first 20 min
utes. but the results were sufficiently
devastating to give the Cadets an un-
expectedly overwhelming lead and off,
set a spectacular comeback by the
Midshipmen.
West Points warriors emerged badly
battered, but triumphant, % TO 6. in
an extraordinary struggle for service
foot ball supremacy before crowd Of
81 900 that filled Franklin Field.
Army's margin was the biggest in 80
years, exceeded only by the 40-to-5 rout
of the Navy away back in 1908, but it
exaggerated the difference between two
teams that alternated in turning loose
attacks of terrific intensity.
Army Strikes With Force.
Bewildered and shell-Shocked by an
Army barrage that produced better
than a point minute at the outset of
the game, the Midshipmen came back
to dominate the play completely IN
the last half.
The trouble with the Navy's counter
thrust was that it didn't have the
scoring punch to capitalize repeated
opportunities and the Sailors conse-
quently yielded the honors gained SO
brilliantly on the same gridiron a
year ago.
Led by the speedy Ed (Whitey)
Grove and the versatile Charles
Monk Meyer, Army's regulars struck
with such fire and accuracy that they
settled the game in the first period.
Less than three minutes after the kick
off and on their second play after get
ting possession of the ball, the Cadets
shook Grove loose down the sidelineS
for 80 yards and touchdown.
The same Grove took 23-yard pass
from Meyer and ran 10 yards unmo-
Tested for another tally Shortly. Clint
(TarZan) True was on the receiving
end of a 12-yard pass from Meyer and
raced 80 yards for the. third Army
touchdown.
All this was accomplished in less
than the full Is minutes of the open
ing period, while the Nays followers
sat stunned by the proceedings.
But they were no more bewildered
than the blue -shirted players from
Annapolis, who were obviously de-
moralized for the time being. unable
to pull themselves together with the
aid of repeated requirements and
easily beaten back by 43-yard drive
that produced Army's final touchdown
early in the second quarter.
Bill Grohs, Cadet field general,
bucked over for the fourth tally from
the 2-yard line after Meyer reeled
off several brilliant runs. Grove
booted his fourth successive placement

Tuesday night to delve into the finan-

Two Main Problems.
In withholding proposals for tax re-

major points in the problem:
!. What are the future necessities

views on how much more they believe

must be boosted.
On these points the committee itself
stated no conclusions, but it did list

well, who is serving a 25-year SEN
tence in an almost identical case.
Young Falin told Wise County

repetition of the 21-year-old school
teachers defense in her trial fort
night ago-a story of stern parental
discipline, accompanied by threats of
violence, stubborn resistance, blows,
and the death of the head Of the
house. Both children said their
fathers had been drinking heavily.
The stories diverged on several
details. The boy said he emptied both
barrels of shotgun as his father ad-
vanced with a pistol in his hand.
Edith told a jury she struck Trigg
Maxwell with high-heeled slipper
when, knife in hand, he seized her by
the hair.
Boy Gives Up.
The boy, who gave himself up last
night after the Staying of L. N. Falin

Deputy Sheriff Dan Bostic he and his
father fell out over the breakdown OF
their automobile when Falin accused
his son of letting the radiator run dry.
