PROPHETS GIVE UP

Finals Among Four Teams
in Stars Tourney This
Week a Free-for-AII.
By ROD THOMAS.

An exciting nnlSh to more than
q month of battling in the sharpest

gle Washington has known in re-
cent years is expected this week when
four-man teams representing War,

sored by The Star.
All four teams, each q sectional

In the family scrap between Treas

and George Winkler will fire for
Treasury opposed by Bill Harvey, Jack
Palmer, Everett johnson and John r.

The teams involved are not bound
to stick to the players who fought
the sectional battles, but probably will.
Prophets Are Bashful.
Ordinarily the favorite to reach to
final would be War and Accounts and
Deposits. but SO many unexpected
things have happened in the tourna-
ment to date that the prophets are
wary. For instance, General Account
ing Office, which won the Federal
medal play championship, got only a
third in sectional strife. However, it
missed Jerry Hart, Federal individual
title winner. Also there was Federal
Bureau of Investigation. one OF the
pre-tournament favorites, which was
knocked out of the running early in
the struggle by War F. B. I. in that
match was without its star, Tom
Webb.
Even after the sectional champion
ships were decided, the teams con-
tinued to battle with spirit. The run
ners-up were Justice. Navy, Agricul-
ture and the Veterans Administration
and the secondary honors were not set
tied until the end of the firing.

devote the time until then to ironing
out several flaws discovered in the
Mercersburg tilt week ago yesterday.
In that game. the Dewitt linemen
constantly were offside due to their
anxiety to break through and as q
result the Mercersburg floating back
kept them off balance and outplayed
all afternoon. Aside from that the
line held.
Another fault in the Dewitt team
was lack of good passing attack. But
with Al Kidwell, ordinarily a good

IN SECOND PERIOD
Sid's Dashes, Punts, Passes
Figure in All Scoring
Done by Lions.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW HAVEN, Conn, Oct. lone
man beat Yale today.
Passing, running and punting with
as much skill as this historic Struc-
ture has ever seen, Sid Luckman
paced Columbia's Light Blue eleven
to smashing 27-to-l4 triumph over
Yale before $4,000 fans, who cheered
him thunderously when he left the
game late in the fourth period.
Backed by a sturdy, dogged eleven
which blocked for him furiously, the
Lions senior halfback scored one
touchdown and set up three others as
Columbia tailed once in the first
period, twice in the second and once
in the fourth
Columbia had everything but re-
serves. The Light Blue played with
only three substitutionS and in the
last period wearily held a horde of
eager Yale reserves at bay.
Lucks1an Sets Games Pace.
Ths Light Blue showed its superior
ity early. Luckman put the ball in
play On Yale'S 40 after running back
kick IA yards in the first. With
Luckman slashing at the Blue tackles
and bombing the secondary with short
fiat passes, Columbia went to the s.
yard line. There Luckman crashed
over right tackle for the score. 1t set
the tempo for the rest of the game.
Luckman's place-kick was off and
the Ellis scored when Bill John blocked
kick on the Columbia 16 and gal
loped over in the same period. Hum
phrey converted and Yale took the
lead for the only time.
The second period won the game.
After one march was halted on the
3, Luckman's return of punt, pass
and two running plays put the ball
on the 13. Radvilas Skirted end, cut
in and scored in absurdly easy fashion.
Long Pass Scores for Yale.
The next score was just as smoothly
fashioned. With the ball on the Yale
IS, Luckman ducked two tacklers,
stepped forward and passed over the
goal line to Frank Stulgaitis.
His last air raid came in the fourth.
He ran from the Yale 40 back to HIS
own 81, eluded tackler and passed
to Art Radvilas on the Yale 10. An
other pass, from his 20 to Gerhard
Seidel, put the ball on the 3, and
Seidel, fine carrier all day. smashed
over for the final touchdown.
Yale's big moment came in the third.
Standing on his As, Gil Humphrey
passed to AL Wilson in the fiat. Wilson
took the ball on the Columbia As, and
running beautifully through the Sec
Ondary, scored.
