BY HENRY McLEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent

Fort Worth, Tex, Nov. 16-CUP)- Ben Hogan shot a 65 over the Colo nial club course here the other day, and immediately everyone began moaning over what was going to hap pen to the layout when all the best golfers started operating on it in the national open championship here next June.

Eleven Unbeaten Teams Risk Grid Records Today
BY HARRY FERGUSON United Press Sports Ed1tOr)

New York, Nov. 16 (UP) = The East, long the underdog in in- ter-sectional football rivalry, pops up with the best game in the coun- try today at Boston where George town and Boston College each risk their perfect records.
 An invitation to a bowl game un- doubtedly awaits the victor in this one. Not so well known nationally as some other teams, Georgetown and Boston College probably could stand the pace in any league. Both have big, bruising lines. Boston probably will be a slight favorite because of a narrow margin of su- periority in the backfield, but 1t is anybody's ball game.
 Eleven unbeaten teams risk their records in todays games. Besides Boston College and Georgetown, three other unbeaten major teams are left in the east-Cornell, Penn State and Lafayette. The schedule for the best games in this section: Penn State vs New York University, Lafayette vs Western Maryland, Cornell vs Dartmouth, Columbia vs Navy, Harvard vs Brown, Pittsburgh vs Nebraska, Princeton vs Yale, Sy- racuse vs Colgate.
 Two unbeaten teans-MinneSota and Notre Dame-go into action in the middle west. Notre Dame fig- ures to have a fairly easy afternoon against Iowa, and Minnesota should not have too much trouble with Pur- due unless the Gophers suffer a let down from a hard schedule. Other god ones in the midwest:
 Illinois vs Ohio State, Kansas State vs Iowa State, Michigan vs Northwestern, Oklahoma vs Mis- souri, Wisconsin vs Indiana.
 Three undefeated teams remain in the south and only one of them Texas A. & M.-should have any trouble today The Texas Aggies go against a fairly strong Rice team and Kimbrough and company will have to be on their toes to avoid an upset. Mississippi State, unbeaten, has a breather against Millsaps, and Tennessee, also undefeated, doeS- mt expect much trouble from Vir- ginia.
 Some others in Dixie:
 Auburn vs Louisiana State, Bay Tor vs Tulsa, Georgia Tee hvs Ala bama, North Carolina vs Duke, Southern Methodist vs Arkansas, Texas Christian vs Texas, Tulane vs Georgia.
 l Stanford's magic Indians remain the only undefeated major team on the Pacific Coast and today they clash with Oregon State, which is capable of bringing about an upset if the Stanford Houdini stuff fails to work.
 Other games in the Far West:
 California vs Oregon, Ucla vs Washington State. Washington vs Southern California, Colorado vs Brigham Young, Denver vs Utah State, Utah vs Colorado State.

.z|vIC BADLY FOULED IN THE
 SECOND ROUND
Purse of $ll,OOO Held Up; Referee Kicked in Leg;
 Barred for Life"
BY JACK CUDDY United Press Stan Correspondent

United Press Stan COrrespOndent) New York, Nov. 16.--(UP)-Young Al Davis faced long suspension and loss of his purse today because of his berserk, back-alley performance in the ring last night that almost caused riot among 17,101 fans in Madison Square Garden.
 Davis was disqualified at 2:34 of the second round for his repeated foul blows on Welterweight Cham- pion Fritzie zivic's groin. The non- tit,e bout had been scheduled for 10 rounds.
 Disqualification infuriated him. In frenzy, he tore after zivic, flashing at body and head, despite the ward ing arms of Referee Billy Cavanagh, zivic's trainer, Freddie Ferro, rushed from the corner and joined the melee. Two uniformed policemen leaped into the ring. As Davis handlers were dragging him back wards, he launched kick at Zivic which caught the referee in the leg.
 Meanwhile, the Garden was bed- lam. Papers, magazines and pea nuts showered into the ring. A few minor alterations started. Detec- tives were forced to stiffen one bel- licoSe Davis admirer. Order was soon restored, but angry fans con- tinued their thunderous booing for 10 minutes after police had escorted unpopular MT. Davis from the ring. Chairman John J. Phelan of the boxing commission announced that Davis purse of about $l1,000 would be held up until after the commis- Sion's meeting on Tuesday. No &C., ton will be taken against him until then. Commissioner Bill Brown de- clared, Hell be barred for life in New York State" Commissioner D. Walker Wear echoed Brown.
 Chairman Phelan said Referee Cavanagh had acted correctly in disqualifying Davis. Phelan em- phasized that, while a fighter can- not lose on single foul in New York State, he can be disqualified for repeated fouling after he has been warned three times by the referee. Cavanagh warned Davis several times.
 Davis launched his barrage Of low blows in the second round be- cause he was apparently desperate and determined to shoot the works" in an attempt to save the money he and his friends had wagered in the heavy betting. He entered the ring a 2-1 underdog. He had taken bad beating in the first round wherein Zivic battered him from rope to rope and put him on one knee for no count. In this round, zivic was rough. The Pittsburgh champion used elbows, hit on the break and hit while he held. Cav anagh warned him for hitting on the break, but did not take away the round. His violations were mi- nor. The fans expected Champion Zivic to belt out Davis in the sec- ond session.
 Fritzie and Al each weighed l471s pounds, just half-pound over the 147 limit for the over-theweight match. Promoter Mike Jacobs an- nounced the gross gate as $44,94O.

grass grow and then give it a whet- ting down. And if you have ever tried to hit out of that stuff you know what it is"
 Neither Little nor Hogan played the third, fourth or fifth holes as they'll be in June, because they are being completely revamped. And they are going to ge great holes, es- pecially the fifth, what with a fair way as narrow as dachshund and guarded on one side by a river and by a ditch on the other. And in Texas you don't smile when you call ditch a ditch, because ditches are bigger than canyons.
 Little said he had never putted finer greens than those of Colonial Hogan agreed with him, and added that the fairways would be the best the open had had in many year.
 And the narrowest, too," said Lit tie: "They average just a shade more than 40 yards in width now And they'll be narrowed. Any play er>who isn't planning on biting the ball straight had better start prac- ticing how to get out of Bermuda rough, from under big pecan trees and out of water hazards"
 Colonial'S two par five holes won't be reached in two by all of the play CTS unless they have an exceptionally stiff following wind, and its par threes are superb holes, particularly the sixteenth. Colonial's head man, Marvin Leonard, said the course would not be tricked up
 Our aim is sound test of golf, ' he said. "A fair test. We don't claim to have the toughest course in the country, and our pride won't be hurt if some of the boys get hot and shoot in the middle sixties. As matter of fact, we'd like that"
 Par for the course is 70 and Little's guess Of the winning score is four rounds of that sort of shooting. He likes 280. Hogan thinks 282 will be good enough.
 Given fair weather and the open, Fort Worth will attract the biggest gate Of an yopen in a long time. Al- ready reservations are pouring into the hotels. This Is the first tlme the southwest has had a national tour- namcnt and the southwest ls going to sec that il goeG

WEST HAVEN ELEVEN
 AT NAUGY TODAY

Naugatuck, Nov. IS = West Ha- ven High will be Naugatuck's op- ponent this afternoon at Recreation field and although Naugatuck won It's first game of the season two weeks ago and has had plenty of rest since then, the visitors are strong favorites to cop the tilt.
 One of the reasons for this Is that three players on the local squad are lost for the remainder of the season because they were de- ficient in some of their studies.
 But if the local team can recap ture teh confidence and spirit it showed in the game against Crosby high here, 1t should give West Ha- ven quite battle today.

HIGM.CLASS STAFF HAD - PITCHERS NOT BEEN SOLD

Since the Philadelphia days of Grover Cleveland Alexander, Bill Killefer and Dave Bancroft, the Phililes have been forced to dispose of ranking athletes in order to get out of the financial barrel. Irish Meusel and Dick Bartell went to the Giants.
 Chicago is another club which has practically used Philadelphia as a subsidiary, and the Wrigleys have been shortchanged more than once in transactions with their branch.
 The Cubs were badly stung when they passed Dolph Camilli to the Phils for Don Hurst. The latter faded out of the big show. The Dodgers gave the Phils $45,000 and player for Camilli.
 Chuck Klein cost the Cubs $6,000 and three players, but in his third season in Chicago, the Wrigleys sent the erstwhile fenc- buster back with more money and Fabian Kowalik in exchange for Curt Davis and Ethan Allen.
 Had the Phillies been able to keep the pitchers they sold they now would possess what possibly would be the finest staff in either wheel Bucky Walters, Higbe, Claude Pas- seau, Davis and Mulcahy.
 But, after all, you've got to pay the rent.

GETTING CLUB TO CAMP IS HIGHLY IMPORTANT

But when Prothro discovered that the Phillies didn't even have enough money to draft a player when they had first choice, he was forced to agree with Nugent that taking the club to training camp next spring was more important than keeping Highe.
 So the Phililes wound up drafting Frank Melton, a preferred pitcher, from Columbus for shipment on to Brooklyn.
 Miserable weather on big days last season perhaps is the reason for the Phillies having to remain in the bus mess of developing aces for more affluent organizations. They were washed out opening day, and rain and cold kept the customers away from the first two night games, and on July 4.
 But out of dilapidated Baker Bowl, and with an equitable deal at Shibe Park, the Philadelphia National League franchise should be a good one following 50 many disastrous campaigns.
 All that is required is an owner wit ha bankroll and little pa- tience.

Deal For Higbe ExciteS Brooklyn,
 But How About Poor Old PhilS?
Philadelphia Club Stays In Business ByDevelopingAce Players For Rivals
BY HARRY CRIMSON NEA Service Sports Editor

New York, November 1e.-Brook- lyn is excited about obtaining Kirby Higbe from the Phillies for $10O,0O0 and three melodies.
 Flatbush fans figure that with Highbe, swift and 25, joining Whit low Wyatt, Curt Davies and Hugh Casey, the Dodgers will match Cin- cinatis pitching staff, and ginish on top in 194l.
 That's the spirit, but how about poor old Philadelphia, where in recent years the Phillies and Ath- letics, not to mention the profess sional football Eagles, have estab- lished a record for total number of teams finishing last?
 The Phillies' home attendance improved in 1889, and Dr. Thomp- son Prothro, who was brought in from Little Rock as manager, was encouraged.
 Doc Prothro believed ne had Gerry Nugent talked into keeping stars and building 8 contender.
 An the world series, Prothro threatened to resign if Nugent peddled either Higbe or Hugh Mul- cahy, another fine right-hander sought by rival outfits.

British Adriatic Raid
Threatens Italian
Army in Albania
Presence Of ButtIeships
In Fleet Is Declared
Significant Foct
BY KIRKE L. SIMPSON,
Associated Press StafH Writer.

British naval raiding deep into
the Adriatic, Italy's private sea,
chalks up another score against
Mussolini's shaken, if not tottering,
Fascist regime. 1t reflects sharply
soaring British hopes Of knocking
Italy out of the war before the
struggle between Germany and Brit
ain enters its decisive phase.
That raid means that the Italian
Army in Albania, probably greater
in size than the shattered Fascist
force in Libya, is in deadly peril
It's vital southern defensive flank
ashore is already crumpling under
Greek mauling, now helped by the
British naval attack, and its lifeline
to Italy is fractured.
The British risked battleships in
the Adriatic raid. That is the sig
nificant fact about the action
Light British naval forces have
stabbed before through the narrow
straits of Otranto at Italian ship
ping serving the forces in Albania.
Risking battleships in such mar
row waters, fringed by Italian shore
batteries, naval and air bases, is an
other matter. 1t was bold move,
strongly indicating sure knowledge
by the British high command OF
widening decentralization in Italian
forces, even at home.
Pound ValOna at Long Range.
Presumably the big ships lay off
shore at the mouth of the straits
to pound Valona at long range, aided
by aircraft fire spotting. 1t would
be deadly fire under such conditions
against SO large target.
The mouth of Valona Bay itself is
stoppered by the fortified Italian
island of Saseno. 1t was the east
ern pillar of Italian defenses of the
entrance to the Adriatic even be-
fore italian seizure of Albania. 1t
made any Albania resistance to
