NEW YORK. Nov 7-Without
fear. and certainly without hope.
here are this corners guesses on
the weeks football program:
Navy -Notre Dame-Both unde-
feated though both nave tied. Notre
Dame has one very good team:
Navy has two. The Tars have no
passer as effective as Angelo Ber-
telli has been at various times this
season and on dry field that edge
might be decisive Still it's guess
at best. and we'll take Navy.
Tulane -Alabama-No matter what
the records may say. these two ap-
pear to be the Southeast's two most
powerful arrays. Alabama'S Jimmy
Nelson has few, if any, superiors as
an all-around threat but Tulane,
when it clicks, seems. unstoppable
Extremely doubtful, Tulane.
Southern a-Stanford-No

Baylor -Texas-Jack Wilson is one
of the seasons great backs, but foot
ball is no one-man game. 1t looks
to be Texas by whatever score 1t
chooses.
Crippled Gophers Favored.
Minnesota -NebraSka-The HuSkers
have gone way back. Crippled or
not. Minnesota seems sure thing.
Harvard d-Army-Certainly the spot
for an upset. but off its showing

HISTORIC MARKER
IS FOUND ON FARM
Cast Iron Shaft Made for
Rumseys Boat Located
Near ThurmOnt

The first shaft ever cast for a
steamboat is located on the Bon
nett farm, not far south of Thur
mont.
The shaft now occupies the lowly
position of forming a corner mar
ker on the Bennett farm. 1t is set
in concrete.
The shaft was cast for Rumseys
first steamboat but proved defec-
tive and another shaft was made,
which the inventor used. AS far as
can be ascertained, this shaft was
made at the old Catoctin Furnace.
c. E. Steele, former secretary of
the Y. M. G. A., ran across this
historic cast iron shaft while he
was looking up some family history
of the Bonnet family, with whom
the Steele family is connected. 1t
is located near quarry in that
neighborbood, and in an isolated
place.
Mr.. Steele photographed the
shaft and presented the picture to
E. M. Tenney, president of the
Washington County Historical So
ciety. 1t may be possible that the
shaft will be placed at the Shep-
herdstown Bridge, where Rumsey
made his successful steamboat
trial, or sent to Washington. 1t
is understood that the hitorical So
ciety feels that it is important
enough to preserve.

MARYLAND MERRy-GO-ROUND-

Washington, d. c., Sept. 10. =
With the eastern seaboard still lit
terry over gasoline, Senator Rad
.lItfe is working on what may be
the sanest suggestion so far for al
leviating the alleged oil and gas
shortage.
1t is plan to lay cotton fabric
hose similar to fire hose from the
Middle West to the Atlantic Sea-
board. Experts say that the use
of fire hoses for carrying oil is per-
fectly feasible if the cotton fabric
is treated with wax or if thin
layer of rubber is used on the in
side.
Three or four strands of fire hose
could be laid inside a corrugated
iron pipe which in turn could be
laid on the surface of the ground
or buried one or two feet under the
fround with very little labor. The
advantage of corrugated iron is
that only 5000 tons of metal would
be necessary as against 100000
tons for a permanent pipe line.
The permanent pipe line idea was
turned down by the SPAB and Ma
tional Defense experts on the
ground with very little labor. The
steel - steel which is vitally need
ed for ships and tanks.
In promoting this, Senator Rad,
cliffe has been cooperating closely
with Isadore Silverman of Balti
more who gave him the idea.
Silverman points out that tenn.
porary pipe line made of fire hose
would not arouse the opposition
either of the oil companies or the
railroads. Furthermore, it would
help to use up the tremendous sur
plus of raw cotton now stored in

sign from Mayor Howard w. Jack.
son of Baltimore. Most they got
was a statement attempting to put
the chill over O'COnOr for even in
directly announcing his candidacy
50 far before the primary.
Such premature plans, Jackson
declared, were a political mistake,
as he had discovered to his sor-
row. But in making that statement
Howard achieved just the effect he
wanted, namely, that when the
time was ripe he would come out
as a candidate.
Now, however, after combing SEN
timent around the Free State, this
column is of the opinion that this
is as far as Jackson is likely to
go.
The Mayor, who has a great rec
ord as a city executive, probably
will wait until the 18th hour, then
publicly withdraw from the race.
This, it will be recalled, was what
he did when the late Governor AL
bert G. Ritchie was a sure thing
for reelection.
And right now if anyone looks
like a sure second-time winner, it
is Herby O'Conor. The Mayor and
his friends know this but to keep
their machine together, they can't
admit it.

camp to the Governors are increas
