(Continued from Page D other term exists under Polish law. Actually, however, the army is close to its full strength of trained re- serves. In addition to the white cards, there also are white cards with red bands and blue cards which have not yet been called.
 The calm which has prevailed in the capital all through the crisis continued today. One reason was that many of the white card holders already had been called up under the individual method by which po- lice knocked at their doors and an- nounced:
 "You are wanted for the army"
 Previous to the new order, the army was estimated at nearly l. 800 00 men, with the five classes call- ed to the colors individually last night.
 It was estimated that the age of the new call will be 35 instead of 40 in many districts so that an enemy cannot gauge the army's ! strength accurately.
 France and Britain were report ed to have sent joint military mis- sion to Warsaw.
 Foreign Officers Arrive
 Maj. Gen. Adrian Carton De Wiant of Britain, who has lived in Poland many years, and Gen. Jacques Faury of France, former head of the Polish military school head the mission and several off cers and members of it have arrived at the Polish capital, the reports said.
 The Polish army, meanwhile, was being reinforced with five more mo- bilized classes, reportedly of men aged 30, B, 35, 37 and 39. In calling the mup, the government charged ! that the German occupation of Slovakia constituted an act of ag- gression against Poland's vital inter- ests and security. A spokesman at the foreign office said the govern ment had learned that German mo- bilization pow was complete and that German troops in Slovakia were ready to march against Poland.
 German Thrust Feared
 There were widespread fears that Q German thrust across the Slovak border would jeopardize the central industrial area and vital communica- tions lines to Rumania.
 The government was heady to decree general mobilization at the moment the situation became criti- cal.
 It was announced officially that three bands O. saboteurs had been captured, two in Silesia and one in Lodz, with a totals of five suitcases full of time bombs. The bands were affiliated. with cenertl office in Beuthei. Germany, and all members were Germans but some had be- come Polish citizens, the com. inunique said. The same band wal blamed for placing . bomb ln tht cloakroom at the railway station at Tarnov. where an explosion killed i8 and wounded 70 vesterdaY.

Two Pins WobbIe on Last
Ball and Fail 10 Go
Down for f. GdIao

Two webbing pins spoiled a per-
feet 900 bowling score for Emil Ga
lao, genial proprietor of the Bruins
wick Bowling Alleys, but he did set
a record in Juneau kegling with
tally of 298, ten pins better than
the record that has stood for many
years here.
Galao, bowling with Rooney Hunt
and Frank Metcalf, bowled a 235
game for warm-up, and then be-
gan finding the 1-3 pocket. He rolled
IL straight strikes and the crowd
gathered to watch the twelfth and
last ball.
1t started nicely down the alley,
took left English and suddenly cut
over on the Brooklyn side and
slashed into the IL hole. 1t sound
ed good and it looked good. The s.
pin and the Spin wobbled, but re-
manned standing.
Frank Metcalf, with whom Galao
was bowling, held the town record
heretofore, with 1888, which still
stands as a record on the Elks al
leys.
After rolling the 298 game, Galao
rolled 1893, which with 235 pre-
ceding the 298. adds up to three
game total of 726, which is another
sort of record
And incidentally, Galao says that
anyone who can break that 1893 mark
on the Brunswick alleys, will re-
ceive a crisp one hundred dollar bill

Duke Power
Should Win
Once Again
Southern Conference Now
Stronger But Little
College Picked
BY BARTON PATTIE
AP Feature Service

RICHMOND, Va, Sept. 26. -
Seven Rose Bowl starters will be
missing when Duke University be-
gins defense of its Southern Con-
ference football championship this
fall but indications are that the
Blue Devils will be just about as
formidable as last year.
With experienced candidates left
for each position, Coach Wallace
Wade's big blue squad is slated to be
little less effective defensively and
perhaps more versatile extensively
than the 1888 team which swept
along unbeaten, united and unsecured
upon until the 7-3 defeat admin
istered by Southern California on
New Years Day.
The Blue Devils are expecting
their closest competition from North
Carolina, Clemson and Wake Forest,
each manned BY veterans and COM
fortably fortified with reserve forces.
Man Killing Schedules
Virginia Military Institute, beat
en- only by Navy last year and con-
ference runner-up to Duke, will
be strong. So will North Carolina
State and South Carolina, but all
are stymied before the ball-snapping
begins by giant-studded schedules.
State, for instance, opens with
Tennessee. V.MI must play VAN
derbilt, Columbia and Duke, and
South Carolina runs head on into
such foes as Catholic u, Villanova,
West Virginia and Georgia.
This season will carry the confer
ence two years away from the Ora
ham PLAN" stringent anti-subsi-
dization program tried out during
The 1887 season. The immediate re-
suit of abandonment of the plan
which had as its big tooth the con-
troll of both direct and indirect fin
ancial aid to athletts-was stronger
freshman contingents last fall.
Dukes major problem will be
to train capable reserves, especially
at center and the guards. Gradua-
tons most costly blow was the loss
of Eric Upton, the kicker who
stopped Pittsburgh's dream back
field with his toe Good booting is
essential to Wade's power system
and he tried out dozen punters in
the spring.
One of the versatile McAfee boys,
George or Wesley, will probably get
the kicking assignment. Other men,
bers of the No. backfield are ex-
pected to be Willard Easy caves,
blocking expert, and Roger Robin
son, plunging fullbacker. Winston
Seigfried, triple threat soph, may
earn a regular hallcarrying spot,
however.
