MAROON POWER
DOWNS EASTERN
By PAUL BEACH

Too much power-cap bile
players three-deep in every posi-
tion-is the story of the defeat of
Eastern at the hands of Episco-
pals gridders.
One touchdown in the opening
period and two more in the third
stanza gave the invading Virgin
ians a 19-to-0 victory yesterday
as the Lincoln Parkers open ed
their season.
Coach Artie Boyd's charges put
up a stiff front, but finally gave
way to the brilliant efforts of Ed
ley Craighill, sturdy Maroon field
general, who dashed IS yards to
score, threw one pass for touch
down and another to the one-foot
line, setting up the third score.
Furthermore, he was like the Rock
of Gibraltar on defense and used
excellent judgment in choosing
plays.
3 EASTERN ACES
Diminutive Dick Best, account
ing for most of the ground yard
age gained; Ray 500, figuring
prominently in three of the four
first downs and carrying the brunt
of the passing attack, and Wiggie
Kidwell, with a nice game at right
tackle, were outstanding for the
losers.
The Alexandrians displayed an
eleven that was well-versed in every
department Of the game. Plung-
ing that ripped the opposing for
ward wall to Shreds-paSsing that
showed deadly accuracy, and con-
sistent kicking combined to make
trio that the blue and white
squad couldn't withstand.
Clean sportSmanlike tactics on
the part of both teams were q
pleasure to watch and added I'M
measurably to the interest OF the
game.

recent declaration that the United

Problems involved in defending
Canada have been studied by mill

wears. The conclusion has been
reached that domination of the
sea for at least 500 miles from
the Canadian coast is the first step
necessary for Il successful opera

the strategic Importance of a Can

be over estimated. The Canadian
st. Lawrence waterway is likened
to spear pointing to the heart

must always be in friendly hands.
Foreign diplomatic observers
also saw a strong political motive
behind formation of the Atlantic
squadron. They said it tended to
lend some support to Great Bri-
