CARNEGIE TECH TEAM MISSING,
 BUT IS WINNER
Louis Delebecque, Hawley Sterling in Fight for
 Scoring Laurels

The game is better off without us, sang the Carnegie Tech bowlers last night. as they deserted the Elks' alleys to play in the snow, leaving the Dartmouth pinmen only par as competition in their conference match. But Dartmouth found par 10 be just a little too worthy an op- ponent, and after capturing the opening engagement, dropped the next two games to the Engineers team average.
 The fireworks of the night came in the second match. wherein Louis Oelebecque wound up with 55l total and a 2l1 game to take top spot over Sterling5s 543 and 200 With Jimmy Connors, Jr.. ably assisting him. Delebecque was able to swing the last two games of the match to the glorification of Min nesota over Susquehanna.

from Charles Francis Adams, for mer Secretary of the Navy. It seems that MT. Adams had worn the same tie on the afternoon when Navy triumphed over Harvard at Cambridge, and felt that by doing so he helped the Middies to tri- umph. He was confident that the tie was a good luck charm and felt that if Rear Admiral Land would wear the tie it most likely would aid the Navy team.
 To wear this tie the officer had to don civilian clothes, for a tie of such hue was not regulation. The change from uniform to civil ian wear was minor effort com- pared to the great possibilities offered by the token as hamburger , of good luck It was little enough to do for the team.
 Rear Admiral Land, the Navy Departments chief of construction and repair, intends to see that the tie is worn at all Navy football games next season, either by himself or by some other officer.
 Mule, Goat, Rabbit
 The Army mule held the atten- tion of the crowd of 102,000 per sons until the Navy goat made his theatrical entrance. A huge linn cuisine, escorted by police and safe ty cars, sped around the track inside the stadium. As it passed the corps of cadets it was roundly booed. But the Army boos were drowned out by the cheers of the Midshipmen when the cars came to a halt in front of the Navy stands and out stepped His Excel lency, the Navy goat, while uni formed Midshipmen stood at at tention.
 The mule and the goat shared honors until the opening whistle even having their pictures taker together. Then they retired to the sidelines.
 The stadium took on the appear ance of zoo when, later in the game, the immense crowd took its eyes off the gridiron battle Ions enough to watch a rabbit scampel around the gridiron. They cheerec lustily as the cottontail raced tht length of the field to an imagin' ary touchdown Poor bunny, wht

In addition to coming to the scene of the annual service classic with a formidable football team, Navy did not overlook single op- portunity to WOO Lady Luck. The Midshipmen did not fail to observe every possible ritual that might insure them a victory over their traditional foes from West Point.
 The Midshipmen,s regiments made sure that their luck would be good by tossing pennies at the bronze bust of Tecumseh, good luck figure at the Naval Academy, before starting their trek to Philadelphia site of the annual battle. Tecum- sch is known as the God of 2.5, passing mark for Midshipmen, and credited with mystic powers of bringing good luck to the future admiralS.
 As the 2,000 Midshipmen sped through Baltimore in their special trains, every shade was drawn It's a time-honored custom witf the lads from the Naval Academy to lower the shades when passing through a city where their team has met defeat at the hands of the Cadets. Baltimore is considered g "jinx" city inasmuch as a dozer years ago Navy was defeated there when Cadet Ed Garbisch, Army's All America ct Il t CT, kicked foul | field goals in one game.

New Type Boat
 Motor Praised

NEW YORK, Dec. 19.-The sixty five-foot yacht Silverheels, owned by c. A. Criqui of Buffalo, N. Y., has been powered with the first crankless, oil-burning marine engine ever produced. Criqui is president of the Sterling Engine Company which designed and developed the new motors.
 The crankless engine, or horizon tai opposed piston design, elimin- ates use of the crankshaft found in the conventional motor, togeth- CT with multiplicity of working parts. such as cam shaft, valves push rods, rocker arms and springs The diesel principle of compression ignition is used. The crankless en- zine is claimed to be the greatest mechanical development since the origin of the turbine.
 Working models of the crankless motor were introduced to the public two years ago at the National Mo- tor Boat Show while they were stil in the stage of development. Since then the engine has undergone hundreds of hours of additional tes running and refinement.
