PENN is DANGEROUS
AS VIEWED BY NAVY
Quakers Have Unrevealed Power.
Middies Out to Get Even for
'36 Humiliation.

A NNAPOLIs, Md, Oct. 27.-The
: Navy football team, the record Of
which In major games is scoreless
tie with Harvard and 2-point defeat
by Notre Dame, is not taking its
brush with Penn in Philadelphia Sat-
urday lightly. but is determined to get
on the winning side in its third big
game.
Though Penn has not been doing so
well. Navy scouts report that it has a
lot of potential power that may burst
forth at any time.
Navy and Penn started their foot
ball relations back in 1888, two years
before the first Army-Navy game.
Last year Penn inflicted the most de-
cisive defeat upon the Navy that the
latter has received from the Quakers,
16 to 6.
The squad will make a one-day trip
to Philadelphia, leaving Annapolis at
8:45 am. and returning directly after
the game.
The roofing section will include one
half Of the regiment Of midshipmen
and many other Navy people.

"nNE of the best tournaments
staged for the women this year"
That is the verdict of the 100-odd
competitors in the Beaver Dam invi-
tation tourney staged at the Landover
Club yesterday as one of the final
affairs on the women's schedule. The
women of Beaver Dam held open house
and they put on fine show in char
acteristic Beaver Dam fashion. One
of those "the sky's the limit" things.
Ellen Kincaid. who used to be the
Beaver Dam Club champ, shot an IS

prizes, but she elected to take the net
award with her card of 86-6-80,
which gave the top gross award to
Helen Dettweiler of Congressional with

follows: Low gross, first nine-Mrs.

Ordained in 1907.

HENDERSON was ordained in the
Episcopal ministry in 1907, after
which he endured many hardships
while roaming the Western United
States as a missionary. Most Of his
missionary activities were conducted
in Eastern Oregon, however, and II
was from there that he went to South
Dakota in the Fall Of 1909 as religious
instructor Not until 1911 did he ac-
cept the job of football coach.
In the fall of 1918 Henderson came
to st. Adams as chaplain, athletic di-
rector and spiritual instructor. He
coached all sports for IL years, but
since has coached only baseball, his
favorite sport.
Henderson is scheduled to embark
for South Dakota Friday night by
airplane. A special effort is being
made to bring together. at the celebra-
ton, all members of that great Coyote
eleven that climbed the heights of
football glory quarter of century
ago under Big Jim's leadership, and
those who attend probably will be in
spired deeply by what Jim has to say
when he enters the pulpit of the little
st. Paul parish to fulfill the request
that he preach the homecoming
service.

Henderson was somewhat of foot
ball player himself many years ago
when he attended Taft School in Wa
tertown, Conn, and later captained
the Trinity College eleven in 1898, his
senior year. He starred four years at
each school and was awarded the dis
tinction of being all-time guard at
Taft.
While at Trinity he came to be
known as the first rowing" center in
football. That was when might was
right ON the gridiron and it generally
was felt that the biggest beef on the
campus should play center. Jim
weighed about $50 at that time and,
in view of the fact that opposing CEN
ters rarely tipped the scales at less
than 200, the first law of nature
usually prompted him to take certain
steps in his own behalf.

Aside from that magnificent
