Ed. s m th, Pauk Don Irwin Strong in ly-3
 Victory

San Francisco, JaE. 2--(uPl- Eastern football forces today toast- ed c l9 to 3 victory over an all- star western eleven, the first for the invaders in four years.
 Proceeds of the annual east~west charity game went to crippled chile dren of the ehriners' hospital In San Francisco. Glory, despite the score was divided nearly equally be- tween the teams.
 Andy Kerr, co-coach of the east ern squad, received the personal gratification of seeing two of his own college players take c major role in the casts victory.
 Western players douted the short end of 10 to 2 pre-gan1e betting odds and held the east scoreless sif1- til late in the game. Meantime, they called upon Johnny Sylvester, Eaiigy end from Rice institute, and moved into Q 3 to o lead with . l6 yard field goal.
 A western miscue opened the flood gates and the visiting team swept to victory. Bill (Kayo) Lam, play. ing safety for the west, fumhled on the 43 yard line. Ed Smith of N.Y.U. skirted the end for i3 yards and c pass to Paul Pauk, Princeton halfback, added i2 more. Smith shipped Q short pass to pauk on the next play and Pauk crossed the line unt )uched.'
 The vests effort to retrieve their lead developed disaster when Don Irwin, Colgate fuilback, intercepted Q pass on the 90 yard line. Ae smashed the ball across after I'd Smith contributed the first 1i yards on an of tackle smash. Irmin cracked center for i2, then covered the remaining three yards over tackle for the second touchdown.
 Conner Jones, Ohio State, crushed the vests ensuing effort to score with passes. re intercepted . pass on the vests le yard line and raced over the goal line.
 Tn the eastern ranks, spectators were impressed by the play of Ri- ley Smith, Alabama quarterbucki Dick Crayne's kicking, powerful contribution to the secondary de- fense by Dick Heekin, Ohio State, and the sterling line play of Frank Loebs, Purdue end, and Big Dick Smith Minnesota tackle.

 Miami, Fla, Jan. 2--tUP)--The backfield boys get their pictures in the paper, but the line boys win the game.
 This was first said, years ago, by Walter Camp, or one of his handle- bar mustachioed contemporaries. It still holds true. We know It's true, because only yesterday, in the Orange Bowl game, Catholic univer- sity defeated Ole Miss on the strength of It's hard-bitten rush line.
 Catholic scored three touchdowns to win by Q single chip, 20 to ie, and two of the counters con be chalked up to the credit of the beaker- boys, who blow up the sod with their noses while the ball-toters plunge over the pile.
 The linesmen who came here from under the shadow of Mrs. Roosevelt's house approximated the layman's conception of c California crew. They stood six feet and over in their tootsies. They split the Mississippi bulwarks while somewhere in the rear the Catholic backs ran with their hands outstretched to break the fell when they toppled on their faces from sheer momentum.
 In due time, that way, the goal was approached. Iris true the first scoring play was c wide lateral ..sta lata aasa mssa Al ARaa ((a Aia aIla a aiRa their high-stepping and sure dip- ping of tho ball.

Highway Deficits In
Eight Counties
Auditor Says Four Others
Will Finish Year elm Red"

Eight of the twenty-three Mary
land counties at the close of business
May 81 were Sin the red" for ex-
penditures for road construction and
maintenance, according to the
monthly balances compiled by the
auditing office of the State Roads
Commission, which were made
public.
All of the deficits, which vary from
S67739 for Worcester county, to
$16S,535.15 for Montgomery county,
aggregate $547,529.45, the report
showed. Summation of the cash
balances of all of the counties and
Baltimore city shows the amount of
S125,O4S.66 on hand as of that date.
Although only eight of the coun-
ties had deficits in their road fund
accounts, the auditors figures show
ed that, taking into account expected
revenue, twelve of them would end
the fiscal year on September 80 with
deficits The combined deficits of
these counties will be $616, 950.93,
the statement indicated.
At the end of the fiscal year, ac-
cording to the commissions report
prepared by William A. Codd, roads
auditor the commission will have on
hand a cash balance of about So

Churches Secede From
Presbytery
Zion Congregation Ignores
Order Of Parent Body

The Presbytery of New Castle has
bad ecclesiastical tangle on it's hands,
with five churches defying its au-
thority and seeding from the parent
body.
The Presbytery met at Dover, Del,
on Monday to further consider the
snarl that has been growing in extent
for months.
There will probably be additional
action taken against the Rev. Harold
S. Laird, suspended pastor of the
First and Central Presbyterian
Church, of Wilmington, Del, who de-
fed the Presbyterian Church last
Sunday.
Disciplinary action also was taken
against the session of Eastlake for
allowing Mr.. Laird to preach.
The secessionist movement be-
came more intense as the news
spread through the Presbytery of
New Castle that another church had
renowned the authority of the
Presbytery and the Presbyterian
Church in the U. S. A.
This is the Presbyterian church Vat
Zion, Cecil county, whose congrega-
ton ON Sunday voted to withdraw
from the Presbytery and to refuse
to accept the resignation of it's pas
tor, the Rev. Colin G.. Weir.
The resolution renouncing the
Presbytery also expressed the deter
mination of the congregation to hold
it's property against the demands of
the Presbytery.
This action of the Zion Church
brings the number of seeding
churches to five. The four others
are: Eastlake, Wilmington; Pen
cader, Glasgow; Head of Christiana,
near Newark, and Forest Middle
town.
Rock Presbyterian church, near
Fair Hill, Cecil county, declined to
take action on the resignation of its
pastor, Rev. Mr.. Weir, stating action
was unnecessary, he being the pastor
of Zion Presbyterian church also.
