State Crushes Ole Miss, $780,
As Record Crowd Watches

STARKVILLE, Miss, Nov. 3D.
The great Harvey johnson, aided
by Toxic Tullos, Billy Jefferson and
a magnificent line, led Mississippi
States Maroons to a crushing 1910
victory over Mississippi today before
25 5000 fans.
1t was the largest crowd ever to
witness football game in Missis-
sippi. Unbeaten but once-tied State
took the opening kickoff and
marched to touchdown in the first
minute, and the issue never was in
doubt.
Mississippi's loss, its first in the
Southeastern Conference, left the

way clear for Tennessee to take the
loop title unchallenged.
States charging line, which opened
holes for the backs, frustrated the
Ole Miss running attack and bottled
up the famous scoring H-boys,
Merle Hapes and Junior Hovious.
Not until the final period, when
State was 10 points to the good, did
Ole Miss get past the Maroon 40
yard line.
Two long kickoff returns helped
State to touchdowns. Walter Craig S
55-yard runback started the drive
to the first and Wilbur Dees opened
the second half with an 83-yard re-
turn to the Ole Miss 6.

PRINCETON, N. j., Nov. 23.-The
Army football team had the courage
and the will to win today, but
Princeton had Dave Allerdice, who
pitched enough strikes to carry the
Tigers to q 26-to-l9 victory in
game which kept $4,000 fans alter

frenzy.
Twice the Cadets came to within
q point of tying the ever-leading
Princetonians, but in the interval
between those two occasions the
fans sat back and specialized as to
how large the Princeton score would
be.
The Tigers, after staving off one
fine Army drive shortly after the
opening kickoff, had taken a 7-to-0
lead after Bob Peters had made a
fine punt return to the Army 8, and
then taken pass from Allerdice for
the score, with Allerdice place-kick-
ing the point.
Army Marches IS Yards.
The Cadets came right back with
a 65-yard march, climaxed by g.
yard touchdown pass, John Hatch
to Hank Mazur. But Joe Weidner's
place kick was blocked, and that wa

The Baltic Sea has many coun-
