WASHINGTON, Nov. 9. (UP).
A nation which gave Franklin
Delano Roosevelt the staunchest
vote of confidence ever rendered
an American President last night
prepared to make his second in
auguration one of the greatest
celebrations of its kind in history.
Under the Norris 'lame-duck"
legislation, the Inauguration will
be held on January 20 this year
instead of on March 4 as in the
past, and newly elected senators
and congressman will take their
seats on January 5. Whether Mr..
Roosevelt will send his message on
the state of the nation and budget
estimates to congress in its early
days, as usual, or wait until after
his Inauguration, has not yet been
announced.
Although the inaugural cere-
mony still is ~ days away and the
official committee to take charge
Of arrangements has not yet been
named, preliminary arrangements
already are being made to take
care of more than 100000 visitors
expected to be attracted to the ma
tons capital.
The inaugural committee will be
confronted this year with hurdle
it has not faced in previous years
the vagaries of Washington
weater. The capital gets its heav-
lest SHOWS in mid-January and the
elements may curb the parades
and other demonstrations and
limit the celebratio nto an indoors
affair. These plans are to be
worked out later.
Meantime, the capitals gay So
cial season will begin officially on
January 2 when the White House
tenders a reception to members of
the diplomatic corps. This is one
Of the most colorful Of all recep-
tions given at 1000 Pennsylvania
avenue an Invitations to it are
eagerly sought by society leaders.
The diplomatic reception will be
followed three days later by din
ner to members of the cabinet.
White House parties continue at
intervals thereafter until February
9 when high ranking officials of
the army and navy are entertain
ed.

Record
Safe Today

MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 17.-Some
day Minnesota will lose a football
game.
But. with Michigan the opposi-
ton, that is hardly likely to occur
today.
Minnesota has lost football
gameS-the last one back in 1882
to Michigan. Since that day the
Gophers have won 19 consecutive
games and they fully expect to
run the string to 20 today.
Coach Harry Kipke led his
Michigan squad into town yeSter-
day, and while not predicting a
victory for the wolverines, de-
clared he is highly pleased with
the way his squad has developed
since being beaten by Indiana,
IA to 8, last week.
With Chris EverharduS out OF
the lineup with a brain concus-
sion, Kipke planned to start Will
liam Barclay at quarterback, Bob
Cooper and John Smithers at the
halves, and Cedric Sweet at full.
Bierman planned to start the
same lineup that knocked over the
University of Washington and
Nebraska.

ball, caused Keene to lose five
yards. Another bad pass caused
another loss Of four yards and the
Razorbacks were back at the Co.
lonial 10-yard line. A wide pass
in the flat zone, Sloan to Keene,
was grounded. Then another pass,
Sloan to Benton, slipped from the
latter'S grasp at the goal line
and G. w. took the ball on downs.
About two minutes later, the
game ended-in a blaze of glory
for a greatly der-estimated G.
w. team, and in heartbreaking
fashion for the visiting eleven.
Loses Thunder
Arkansas, without a running at
tack, and with the field wet and
slippery, and the ball even slip
perier than the field, had most Of
it's thunder taken away from it.
The Razorbacks chucking that ball
are dangerous as can be. What
would have happened had the field
been dry? Well, the field wasn't
dry, so why go into that?
Once again, G. w. offered a
superb attraction to Washington
football fans. The game was a
delight to Colonial rooters. AS for
the fellow who just loves football
and isn't particularly interested in
which team wins, the game was q
knockout in every sense of the
word. If G.. w. brings Arkansas
back next year the tilt ought to
draw close to 10000 people. My
guess is that there were $4,000 at
last nights game.
The promised sensational game
proved up, even if there were lots
Of freak fumbleS and counter
fumbles. To the fellow who goes
in heavily for technical football,
Jim Pixlee's defensive strategy,
Of course, stands out as the shining
feature Of the game. The right
side Of the Arkansas line lost the
game for the visitors, but then,
it's easy to second guess. After
that fatal second period, Coach
Thomson, of Arkansas straight
ened his right side defense out,
but it was too late.
Washington by now has &C.
cepted G. w. as probably the best
eleven ever to represent the
school.

the 'headmaster Of George Wash

Washington would stay at home

move to the north by northeast

Why, that rain-soaked mob that

Washington is not only football
foolish but downright goofy.
Neither nights for man or beast

amazing number of Washing
tonians ventured forth on two OF
the worst nights the Weather Bu'

They deserted their home fires,
their radio, their easy chair and
their slippers to see football
under most adverse conditions
and they did this in numbers
which were far more than even
George Washington could have
expected under the conditions.
Oh. Washington will do as a

followers from every nook of the

gridiron greediness here that
makes the Capital stand alone as

BOSTON, Oct. 17.-Having put
on show at the Yankee Stadium
last week with an exhibition OF
football that seemed to call for
both feet off the ground at all
times, the top-billing acrobatic
turn Of Meyer and Stromberg de-
toured into this town today for
the annual meeting between the
Army and Harvard, over in Cam
bridge before an anticipated house
Of $4,000. Both teams were going
into the game undefeated, but the
Army probably will attend to that.
1t twice lost the lead to Columbia
in New York last week but came
again in the final period with IL
points to win by 27 to 16.
Mr.. Monk Meyer, who weighs
las pounds after q deep breath
and is built on the general contour
of a soda straw, stole the show
there by completing IL out Of Is
passes, but actually that's one
angle that gave Harvard chance
today. He couldn't do that again
with a carrier pigeon.
Besides, the Army gained only
81 yards by rushing in the Colum
bia game, which might not sound
so well if it wasn't for the fact
that these were vital yards that
Meyer eked out by off tackle runs
and end sweeps as a complement
to his passing game. In other
words, to beat the Army, all you
have to do is stop Meyer. But
that's like the guy who swallowed
q pool ball. He never was quite
sure afterward whether he had 1t
or it had him.
Anyhow, Harvard has won from
Amherst and Brown by big scores
with q pretty fair, country attack,
apparently built around gent by
the name Of Roberts. The outfit
is just beginning to react to the
Dick Harlow system, only of course
you don't win ball games by
systems.
In the first place, q 2l5-pound
smashing tackle can hit a system
right down on the back Of its hair
trim. In the second place. there
generally isn't any second place.
