Old-Age Insurance Aids
Many Types Of People

People from almost every walk
in life are among the beneficiaries
in Southeastern N o nth Carolina
who are now receiving payments
of old-age and survivors insurance
George w. Jeffrey, manager of
the Wilmington field office of the
Social Security board, said yester-
day.
They include old folks who have
been able to save some money
and others who have lost every
thing, young widows with small
children, children who have lost
both parents, and elderly widows
alone in the world.
Jeffrey said some of these were
comfortably fixed while the bread
winner of the family was alive
and in good health. Others have
had misfortunes all the way; but
in each household where federal
insurance payments help solve the
problems caused by old age or
death, there will rarely be abso-
lutte restitution. 2

blast of defiance swept into the
World Series today as Del Baker,
manager Of the conquering Detroit
Tigers, led the cheering section in
celebration of his clubs 7 to 4 vic

Baker, for the first time, ex-
pressed confidence in his nine

out in the next two games.

10000 Expected To See Grid
iron Classic Between Ney-
land And Wade Elevens
BY HARRY p. SNYDER

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Oct. Alp
Southern and Southeastern confer
ence co-champs of 1939-on a football
field again tomorrow.
It's Wallace Wade against Major
Bob Neyland, two of the nations
craftiest conjurors of gridiron magic.
It's n of the south's most heated
rivalries and about 40, 900 rabid fans
will jam into Shields Watkins stadi-
I'm come fair weather or the showers
forecast by the weather bureau.
The Blue Devils left Durham, N.
c., tonight by special train and will
arrive early tomorrow, bringing with
them the reputation of the greatest
aggregation ever assembled by
Wade"
Tennessee fans acclaim their
favorite another typical Neyland
team"
Both labels mean that they have
big, powerful linemen; speedy backs
who can kick and run and pass with
the best of them; two teams with
plenty of stuff.
No one knows the true strength of
either club. Duke won handily from
V. NJ. I. while Tennessee trounced
Mercer last Saturday. Both adhered
to orthodox tactics, saving for the
1arrlu rrhofayyn~ nhninn hitC nf
strategy the Wade and Neyland
nightmares have produce since the
game was scheduled.
All WAGE clubs have been heralded
for their defensive play. And Ney-
lands system calls for plenty Of stop
the-other guy. When Southern Cali
fornia scored twice to down the Vols
in the last Rose Bowl business, it
was the first time their goal had been
crossed since October 1888.
Offensive m%aneuvers of Duke and
Tennessee alike include a sound rum
ming attack with the airways used
only as a change Of pace. In recent
weeks, though, both squads have
been polishing their aerial games.
The morrow's victor - should one
emerge-will be hailed as the tops in
Dixie, accorded a high place among
the national powers, and certainly
become a nominee for one Of the post
season bowls.
For the individuals on the clubs,
a day of stardom would speed them
on their way toward the All-America,
possibly clinch such honors.
Nominated for the headlines BIZ the
experts are Dukes Wesley McAfee
and Jap Davis, backs; Tackle Tony
Ruffa with the sure-fire toe, and End
LeonalN Darnell.
On the other side are Tailbacks
Bob Foxx and Johnny Butler, Tackle
Abe Shires, and Guards Ed Molinski
and Bob Suffridge.
The chips on the table, gentlemen,
are blue.

WORLD SERIES
ODDS AND ENDS
BY T. E. APPLICABLE

BRIGGS STADIUM, Detroit, Oct
4-R-Today's crowd OF 52,o11
was slow in arriving, except 1or
the 12.0 900 fans who faced the u
in unreserved sections in center
field. They poured in when the gales
we're opened at 8 a. m. Many re-
served seat-holders didn't get to
their seats until the first inning
was over.
Walter O. Briggs, owner OF the
Detroit club, reached his box about
the time the Tigers tied the score
at 1-all in the fourth inning.
Ernie lombard, big catcher who
was out of the Cincinnati lineup
with an ankle injury for the first
two games, got a nice round OF
applause from the crowd when his
name was announced in the start
ing lineup today. He responded
BY lifting a double into the right
field corner to open the second IN
ming. Whether lombard sees fur
Their service in the series is ques-
tionable-his ankle vas severely
swollen after the game.
Jim Turner turned in a neat
pitching trick in the second in
ming, throwing seven successive
strikes to Hank G%reenberg, Rudy
York and Bruce Campbell. Hank
looked a bit surprised when he
swung at the third one, York
watched a waist-high curve go past
for his third one, after Campbell
took one strike, he watched the
ball, then lined a double to left
center for the first hit off Turner.
Detroit's run scored by McCosky
in the fourth marked the second
time in the series that Greenberg
had hit into a double play and
scored a runner from third.
Greenberg registered a com.
plant with plate umpire Ballan-
FAINT after a called second strike
on him in the seventh. Then he
smashed a hard ground single to
center, starting Detroit's winning
rally and scoring ahead Of York
as the big Cherokee Indian lifted

foot mark into the lower pavilion

Keep Hoping
But anyway we picked Duke.
And a lot of other teams, too, Tor
that matter, as winners. And thats
Ill we can do right now except
hope that Santa is an alright guy.
We don't believe much in fate on
the gridiron. The old lady with the
false teeth would probably find the
boys playing a little too rough Tor
her. And winning football games IS
based on the time-tried axiom that
might makes for victory.
The military boys say that it's
The fellow who "gets there fustest
with the mostest." And Wallace
Wade has always been able to do
that.
But that game over the Smokes
81 going to be a good n to watch
Tor the 30, 900 that will be there.
And a good one to listen to for the
40, 900 that won't be there.
Out OF The Records
However, the fact remains that
Wade has never beaten Major Bob
Neyland at Knoxville, not even
while he was coaching at Alabama.
But balancing things up is the fact
that the Major has never beat Wade
at Duke but did win n from the
xcotcbmap AT Alabama.
In a nine game series between the
two coaches, Neyland has won six,
lost two and tied one. So he holds
n edge.
One of the worst bestings Wade
ever received was at the hands OF
He Volunteers. That was in 1881,
Wade's first year at Duke, when
Tennessee won 25-2. But Duke beat
Tennessee 1876 in 1864 year when
Neyland was on a leave Of absence
from Tennessee.
