 FOR THREE YEARS /?

Iowa City, Iowa, November 25. = CUP) - Formal dismissal of 1rl Tubbs as head football coach at the University of Iowa left the way open today for announcement Of the appointment of his successor = pos- sibly Eddie Anderson of Holy Cross. fiedoti-n-1nsRLsi- taoinshrdluhrdu
 Athletic officials who formally notified Tubbs yesterday that his controct would not be renewed after it expires January indicated the new coach probably would be named next week.
 Rumors have persisted that An- derson, former Notre Dame star un- der the late Knute Rockne and head coach at Holy Cross for the past six years will be Tubbs' successor. The Des Moines Register said in a copyrighted story that Anderson was signed last Monday to a three year contract and that he would bring Backfield Coach Joe Shee- ketski and iLne Coach Jim Harris here with him.
 Professor Karl E. Leib. chairman of the board in control of Athletics, would neither confirm nor deny the Register story.

St. Thomas Bo4gling Pickups

Last year the word was passed around the alleys to "Get Miller, but this year it has been changed to Get Bolan".
 Rev. Fr. Donnelly's team, by win- ming three games from George Miller's team tied up George Bolan's team for first place, while E. ,Fitz- gerald's team, through the superb efforts of Dennis Hickey and John Smith, took over the leaders two out of three. It is certainly a close race with only five games separat- ing the leaders from Jimmy Off, cer's tail unders. When Jimmy Officers crew gets going, just watch them climb out of the cellar.
 The more they holler at Danny Perrin for slightly" stepping over the foul line, the better Danny bowls.
 In spite of George Miller's fine bowling he had high single and high three-still his team lost three games.
 While Father Donnelly only gar- nered 273 pins for the evening, every man on his team totaled over 300 for their three games.
 Freddy Rappelt was second high with 324 while George Sloss trailed by only one pin.
 What lead-off man Father Donnelly has in Jackie Grout - Jackie moved them down for a total of 317.
 Pen McDonought, Joe Gonya Jimmy McManamy, and our presi- dent, Tom Foley, seemed to be on strike as none of them bowled theil usual game guess Captain Miller had better give them a pep talk.

BOVA, SETON HALL
 CROSS COUNTRY CHAMP

Newark, N. J., Nov. 25.-(UP)- Carmen Bova, 2O-year- -old senior and captain of the cross country team of Seton Hall Prep, South Orange N. J., was national interscholastic cross country champion today.
 He came from behind in the last 300 yards to beat out his teammate, Frank Leary, in the national schol- astic race yesterday. Maurice Toot- haker, of Phillips, Me, high, who set the pace for the last mile, finish ed third, Bova, whose home is in Lowell, Mass, was clocked in 12:55.2 Leary and Toothaker were the only others to finish under 13 minutes.
 Seton Hall won team honors in the prep school division with l8 points. The Norristown, Pa., squad won the high school title with 85 points.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-11-25

Captain Jimmy Officer breaks more pins with that fast ball of his than any man in the league.
 Dan Hickey and Russ Dow, the boys with the handsome curves bowled on opposite teams, but Dan wa sin rare form and easily took over Russ.
 Eddie Coughlin hit them for an even 300, but we know Eddie can do a lot better.
 Charley "One-Ball" Keeley came through in the last box with a nice spare and an eight filler to win the last game from George Bolan.
 Bill Brennan remarked he never could get a decent score in the first two alleys - never mind, Bill, you had plenty of company with Clar- ence Hamilton and Bob LaPlante.
 Paul Cronin and Bubsy McHale were on their toes and averaged just 101 fof three games.

TENNESSEE AND
 TROJANS LEAD. ROSE BOWL RAGE.
Changes May Be Made, Though After Saturday
 Games; Duke Possible
BY LESLIE AVERY United Press Staff Correspondent

United Press Staff Correspondent
 New York, Nov. 25-UP)-To- days most likely Rose Bowl oppon- ents: Southern California and Tennessee.
 These two universities made com- manding bids for the Tournament of Roses, recognition by overwhelming traditional Turkey day opponents.
 Tennessee's bid may be less con- manding, however, after Duke and Texas Christian, in the east. show their full hands in games tomor- row. And the wesetrn ace maybe turned up without play on Mon- day when Pacific Coast Conference members vote on whether Southern Cal or California, tied for the Con- ference title, will be their represen- tative.
 The Trojans advanced their claim and won the Conference title by swamping U. c. L A. 42-7 They are now favored for the Bowl bid because they had defeated the Bears 13-7, and their margin over U. c. L. A. was more convincing than California's 20-7 victory. Already beaten by Alabama and Washing ton. The Trojans are due for still another defeat, because on Decem- Der 3 they face Notre Dame, out standing candidate for mythical na- tional championship honors, but one that will not consider a Bowl bid.
 Tennessee, who with Notre Dame, belongs to the nations "big five undefeated, united elevens, clinched the Southeastern Conference title by walloping Kentucky 46-0. While the Vols must be rated the No. 1 contender for the eastern Bowl bid they must beat a powerful Missis- sippi team December to keep their hopes alive.
 Texas Christian, rated second only to Notre Dame, can strength en its bid for a Rose Bowl invita- tion with a convincing victory over Southern Methodist in the decid- ing game of the Southwestern Con- ference tomorrow. Duke, only sur viving major unscored-on team in the country, could vault into tol favor for the Tournament of Roses honor by conquering Pitt tomorrow Oklahoma, the other major perfect record team, apparently has two pushovers in its remaining games against Oklahoma Aggies tomorrow and Washington State the following Saturday.
 Following Thanksgiving days 98' game schedule, tomorrow's 28 tilt will virtually close the season although several good games will b played next week end.
 Features of yesterdays games in cluded:
 East-Cornell clinched the "Iv league" title although held to ; surprising 0-0 tie by Penn; Browl licked Columbia 36-27; Villanovs blanked Manhattan 200 and Wes Virginia noSed George Washington 7-6.
 South-Alabama edged Vanderbilt 7-0; Clemson took Fllrman 10-7; Carnegie Tech beat North Carolina State 14-0; Miami upset Buckness I19-0; North Carolina Shutout Vir- ginia 200 and Maryland bested w and L. 1913.
 Midwest-In Big Six Conferences games, Missouri defeated Kansas 13-7, and Nebraska beat Kansas State 14-7.
 Southwest-Texas nosed Texas Aggies 7-6; Centenary won over Louisiana 14-7; and Arkansas was held to 6-6 tie by Tulsa.
 Far West-Denver licked Colorado 19-12; Montana scored TO over Ari- zona; New Mexico downed Colorado State 27-7.

z 2ARLINCTONMEN'
SAVED FROM BAY.
AFTER DUCKINC.

Adrift in the choppy waters of
Chesapeake Bay for more than 10I
hours, three Arlington county men
were rescued early yesterday after
two of them had battled to stay
afloat with small life preservers,
while the third fought bravely to
stay afloat in his canoe after the
paddles had been lost.
Those saved when taken aboard
a schooner loaded with Washing
ton Girl Scouts, seven miles from
shore, are: Richard D. Sebastian,
20, of 3112 First Rd., North, and
Joseph Ambrogi, %, of 2729 North
Washington Boulevard, who had
clung to their life preservers all
night, while Leonard Sebastian,
38, brother of Richard, was res
cued from his small boat by Capt.
Langford windsor, of Deal, Md.
TRIED TO SAVE OARS
First to leave the small boat
was Ambrogi, who jumped in the
water in an effort to retrieve a
paddle which had slipped from the
boat. Seeing that the tide was too
much for their companion, the
Sebastian brothers threw small
cushioned life preserver to Am
brogi and Richard jumped over
board to go to his aid.
The third member of the party
watched helplessly as the small
craft drifted away from the two
struggling men.
It was about 2 o'clock that
Leonard was taken from his boat
by Captain Langford. He had
drifted about seven miles.
RICHARD SEMICONSCIOUS
Four hours later the schooner
Stamford sighted a man floating
off Chesapeake Beach. This
proved to be Richard, still clinging
to his life preserver, although in
a Semiconscious condition.
The schooner then set out to
find Ambrogi and was about to
give up the search when at $50
o'clock-about 1112 hours after he
had gone overheard - he was
found. The man was still strong
enough to climb aboard. He had
drifted about 10 miles and was
picked up two miles from where
Richard was rescued.

By 4. 7. DRIsCOLL

Citizens Associations Editor
Delay in construction of the
Thomas Circle underpass in order
to allow further study of by-passes
will be urged by the Mid-City AS
sociation, at the public meeting
tonight at Thomson School. Off
GERS of the organization have
pointed out that many cities of
comparable size now have similar
traffic facilities.
A bypass around the District,
spokesmen for the association de-
clared, would keep through traf-
fic from entering the city proper,
eliminating necessity for street
widening.
1t was claimed bypass would
eliminate need for underpass at
Thomas Circle. The underpass
will necessitate cutting down two
blocks of 104 shade trees between

THOMAS CIRCLE
TREES TO STAY
DESPITE PASS
Capt. Whitehurst
Ends Row
BY JULIA A. BONWIT

The hue and cry over the poor
trees on Massachusetts, Avenue if
the Thomas Circle underpass is
built was given the go.by today.
Capt. H. C. Whitehurst, District
director of highways, produced
sketch of the projected underpaSs,
and said:
Look, we're going to have
trees there even though we
widen the street."
REPLACEMENTS PLANNED
The trees which will have to be
removed for the underpass will be
replaced, he assured, rejecting the
argument of the opposition that
the underpass would take away
from the beauty of the circles
environS.
Captain WhitehurSt'S statement
precedes the protest meeting Of
the Mid-City Citizens Association
scheduled for tonight, when it is
planned to ask Secretary of In
terror Harold L. IckeS to order the
project deferred for further study.
Preliminary plans have already
been approved by the Fine Arts
Commission and the National
Capital Park and Planning Com
mission, Captain Whitehurst said,
and the architects office will soon
start on working drawings for the
project.
A SIX-MONTHS JOB
The highway director estimated
that work will begin on the project
by mid october, and that it will
take six months to complete the
Job.
He further stated that traffic
will not be interrupted around
Thomas Circle during construction
OF the underpass. 1t will be built
In sections, he explained.
Traffic on Fourteenth Street
and Massachusetts, Avenue will
move at all times" he said.
"There will probably be some
congestion, but it will move"
The proposed underpass is de-
signed to put Massachusetts, Ave
nue. traffic underground, and to
move street car traffic in an oval
route around the circle.
Construction of the underpass
has been agitated for more than
five years, and this year Congress
appropriated $530,000 for the
work.
Another underpass, at Dupont
Circle, was turned down by Con-
gress for the coming fiscal year.
