Tom Harmon of Michigan and Al

the Nations most prodigious football
ground gamers, but maybe it's just

Because American Football Sta
tistical Bureau figures released to-
day show that they would be trail
ing threesome consisting of Bill
Dudley of Virginia, Elmer Madarik
of Detroit and Frankie Sinkwich of
Georgia.
At this stage last year Harmon
was the nominal total offensive
leader with 1888 yards from rushing
and passing. This year the three
leaders are Dudley with 1,173 yards,
Madarik with l,l31 and Sinkwich
with 1908. putting Harmon l80 yards
behind the third man.
Ghesquiere last year led the
rushers with GIT yards This year
Sinkwich has gained 655 for the
same period, despite playing with
broken jaw.
Dave Allerdice Of Princeton was
pacing the 1910 passers with 81 COM
pletions out of 1O3 attempts. This
year Owen "Muggy'' Price of Texas
Mines has completed 63 of l35. Price
is shooting for Davey OBrlens S
modern record established in 1888,
when he completed SO OF 167 for
Texas Christian, Price has more
attempts and completions per game
for his five games than had O'Brien.
Only in punting does the 1941 top
figure fail to measure up to that of
1910, but even there it's the same
leader, something the bureau says is
unusual in its experience. The lead
ing punter in each season was and is

BY ROBERT MYERS.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 6.-Rose
Bowl stock of the University of
Texas took a jump today-whether
it's safe buy remains to be seen,
however-With the disclosure that
the Navy is on record as opposing at
least one proposed post-season ap-
pearance by the Annapolis Middies.
Secretary Knox. no less, wrote a
letter and combined with it a rec
ommendation by the superintendent
of the Naval Academy which turned
thumbs down on proposed game
between the Navy and the champion
Army team in California or an all
star aggregation of service men in
training out here.
The rejection did not apply to the
Rose Bowl game. tut the reasons

AS there are several members

Middies Can't Afford Time.
Due to increased academic de-
mands on all Midshipmen in the

from classes or drills is a decided
handicap
In view of the above. it is rec
commended that the request - not

Secretary Knox added. go I re-

The Midshipmen have been men,

BILLIE CRIMSON
 BEGGED FOR LIFE
Pretty Choir Singer Made Plea Before Slayer
 Took Her Life

Chandler, Okla, Aug. 19.-(UP)- Officers believed today that mur- dered Billie Grayson, IS, pretty choir singer, had begged on her knees for her life.
 Her pleas were futile. An unknown assailant strangled her. In the mid- de of the night, he took her nude body into lonely Oak Park ceme- tery, laid it on top of a grasS-cov- cred grave, closed her hands at her sides and rested her head against a granite tombstone.
 The cemetery caretaker found the body yesterday morning. Today, of- ficerS hunted a Swarthy, thtn-faced man of medium build. His deScrip- tion was the only clue they had.
 Sherin Marvin Roberts considered 1t likely that the killer is mad. The girl was not raped, but Roberts said she obviously was slain in fit of passion" Physicians set the time of murder as midnight Sunday.
 Police thought the killer could have been an acquaintance who re- pented when she was dead and fam tastically sought to atone by giving her funeral, with himself the only mourneT.
 There were bruises and gravel marks on her knees, evidence, of ficers said, that she had knelt on a country road and begged for her life. Apparently she was garroted with her braided leather belt, the only article of her clothing that was missing.

Rails on Portion of Bank Street Has Aroused Some Criticism

The street departments decision to remove trolley rails on por- ton of Bank street with the city rather than the Connecticut Rail- way & Lighting Co. meeting the cost threatened to result in a ma jor controversy today. Alderman 5 Burton IT a1iEer; RepGo olicani charged that "this is another proof that there could be greater effi- ciency in many city departments, ? while Mayor Vincent A.

Scott Smith says that it would have taken too much time to get the company to remove the tracks but I'd like to know why the company wasn't told to act several months ago. The paw ing on Bank street has been planned for several years. Now the taxpayers must meet the cost of tearing up the rails, though the law allows the city to make the company do it."
