CHILD VICTIM
ASSURED RITES

Through the generosity of
neighbors, funeral services for
five-year-old William Karavasilis,
of 353 L st. S. W., who was killed
when a motorcycle struck him as
he ran into the street while play
ing near his home Wednesday,
will be held tomorrow morning at
the residence.
Too poor to provide a funeral,
the dead child's parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Philip Steven Karavasilis,
were facing the prospect of bury
ing their child in a pauper'S grave.
Neighbors came to the rescue with
funds to provide the services.
Other charitable sources were
being sought today by the father,
an unemployed painter, for the
child'S burial plot.
Laid off from PWA employment
last November, Mr.. KaravaSilis
has only been able to find odd
jobs occasionally, and the money
has been barely enough to supply
his family with meager necessities.
When the story of his sons death
and the family's circumstances
appeared in the paper, Mr.. Kara,
vasilis was offered a steady job
as a painter.
There are three other children
in the KaravasiliS family-three.

dead brother; Stephen, 7, and

Georgia Tech, with a team as

beating. Although forward passes
participated In all the touchdowns,
Georgia Tech had amazing sue
cess with its running game. Sheer
power. plus the open attack adopt
ed by Bill Alexander last year,
gained 322 yards from scrimmage.
In Atlanta they are beginning to

The most startling result in the
South last Saturday was Wander
bilt's defeat by little Southwest
ern Of Memphis. Vandy under

nothing can detract from the

Biggest Worry for Yale Game al

81 ecial Dispatch to The Star.
A NNAPOLIs, October l3.-That the
- Navy will be able to make ground
against Yale Saturday Is not questioned
by those who have seen the service
team in action this year, but the same
old matter as to its ability to stop
passes Is what Is worrying the local
contingent.
Two-thirds Of the practice Of last
week was given to efforts to brace the
team in this particular. and the answer
was that Virginia caught the Navy
backfield defense hatfooted time after
time.
Yesterday the short period allotted
to field work was given almost entirely
to the same thing, and 1t is likely that
it will be continued during the week,
as 1t seems to be the only glaring weak
ness In the Navy squad this year.
The backfield which will strike when
Hamilton masses his strength for the
great effort. will likely be made up Of
Frank Case, Sneed Schmidt, Bob An
trim and Bill Ingram. The first three
have clinched their places, and In
gram. on account Of his running and
passing. and, particularly, his pass de-
tense, appears like the fourth man.
Never before has the Navy had three
running backs Of high worth in its
backfield at the same time. Schmidt,
Antrim and Ingram are all running
brilliantly. and Case, who calls signals
most Of the time, can do his bit In this
line, too, but modestly refrains.
Outstanding change backs are Newell
Thomas, Charley Reimann, Bill Mason,
Art Franks and Lem Cooke. Franks
and Cooke were plebes last season.
