Navy Rated Al Choice to Outpoint Harvard Tomorrow
By TOM NoONAN

(Untted Press Stan COrreSp0nuenG)
 Boston, Oct. 24-(UP)-Harvard'S modern iron linen attempt the seemingly impossible again, but the cards will be stacked even heavier when the Crimson faces the Navy battlewagon tomorrow.
 The same professional gamblers, who installed Dartmouth favorite to whip Harvard last week, offer Al odds that Navy will accomplish what the Big Green failed to do.
 Gridon crystal gazers who roasted the Crimson for its punchlesS of fense against Pennsylvania and Cornell are back with predictions that Navy positively will wear down reserve-shy Harvard in the first half and tear the Cambridge lads to pieces at leisure in the second half.
 Mine Good Backs
 True enough, Navy has shown worlds of power in whaling four op- ponents by decisive margins while yielding only two points. They have nine classy backs, headed by Barn. acle Bill Busik, and a team that rates with Fordham at the top of the eastern heap. But their touted reserve strength has been pretty much of Q myth to date. In trim ming Cornell last week, for example, Navy used only "A players, exclud- ing placekick specialists.
 The landslide for a decisive Navy victory started Monday when Har- yard announced that end Loren MacKinney, punter deluxe and probably the teams best all-around performer, would not play because of a leg injury. The announcement still stands, but the nature of Mac Kinney,s injury has not been re- vealed and it's not impossible that Harvard may have a sleeper up its sleeve.
 For the magician,s art of show manship and surprise is highly de- veloped in Harvard coach Dick Bar low. It was primarily the plung- ing of Don McNicol, tabbed as strictly a passer, and the ball toting of End MacKinney that tumbled Dartmouth from, the lmdefeated ranks.
 Even if MacKinney doesn't face the Midshipmep. Harvard still should have the stronger. line, and it's a Senior-studded unit that isn't likely to crack under pressure. F'el- lows Ike Guard Cub Peabody, who

Columbia.
 I'm giving Iowa State the nod over Kansas at Lawrence, but with no great degree of confidence. TEXAS CHRISTIAN CAN'T WIN WITHOUT GILLESPI
 Fordham would be the choice over Texas Christian at Yankee Stadium with Kyle Gillespie in the Horned Grogs' lineup. The Forth Worth array can't be given much chance with Gillespie on the bench, and the tailback went out of the Texas A. and M. game early in the going with knee injury.
 Navy will wear out Harvard's strong, but thin, line at Cam bridge.
 Colgate has too fine a team to remain down, so have Q hunch the Red Raiders will get on the right trac!; against Cornell at Ithaca.

Yonkers, oct. 24-New York's longest stake race for two-year-olds = the Ardsley Handicap - will hold the center of attention at Empire City today, as the Yonkers associa- tion completed plans for the han ding of another tremendous out- pouring of patrons. Tn addition to the Ardsley, the brilliant weekend card will offer for the first time the Daingerfield, a $5,000 overnight handicap, at two miles, which promises to bring into action the best distance runners in training. The Daingerfield was named in memory of Algernon Daingerfield. late assistant secretary and treas urer of the Jockey Club.
 The Ardsley, which dates back to 1918, is the last of the important juvenile stakes of the New York season and one which will not only test the speed but also the stamina and gameness of the candidates en- gagged. This renewal promises to prove one of the most exciting In the history of the race.

Uncertain Eli Team Is Un- derdog; Coast Guard
 vs. Trinity
(By Unlsed Press)

A determined band of Dartmouth Indians came down from Hanover, N. H., today, prepared to conduct . scalping party in the Yale bowl to. morrow against an underdog Yale university eleven.
 Dartmouth, which has lost only one game, was favored to win over the Ellis, who have won single contest and lost two. The Yale team, under Coach Spike Nelson, looked pretty good in It's first two games, but against the Army last week, 1t appeared weak and ineffective.
 The Indians were upset by Har- yard @ week ago but were expected to bounce back and hand the Ellis 8 pasting.
 Title Test
 In the meantime, the champion. ship of Connecticut small colleges was expected to be decided in 6 game tomorrow at Hartford between two undefeated and united elevens the U. s. Coast Guard academy team, which has won five games, and Trinity college. which has won four.
 The Coast Guard boasts the strongest team in the 13 years coaeh- ing career of Johnny Merriman. and the cadets were established favor ties. Merriman has two first string teams, one almost as good as the other, and the reserves were ex- pected to tell the story.
 Wesleyan meets Amherst in the first of the "Ldttle Three" series, and close game was looked for. Wes- leyan, after a slow start, has voomed back and won its last two games.

sionary Baptist Convention of
Georgia, while the Rev. j. w. Drake
of Miami, moderator of the East
Coast Baptist Association is in
charge of the Florida delegates.
OFFICIAL OPENING
The historic session is scheduled
to open officially Wednesday even
ing after the first part of the day
is devoted to registration of dele
gates.
Aboard the special train were the
Rev. w. H. Borders, the w. w.
Weatherspool, the Rev. M. L. King,
the Rev. T. H. George, the Rev.
Roland Smith, The Rev. B. j
Johnson, and many others.
The chief topic of discussion
among the ministers as they await
ed long after departure time for
the Florida train was the coniec-
ture over who was to lead the
Baptists after the Cleveland meet
ing.
Many campaigners were active I'D
and down the cars lining up votes
for their favorite candidate.
Though the Southern wing of
the Baptists had not expressed open
ly any choice, it was believed the
Georgia delegation would be large
ly split between the incumbent, DR..
D. v. Jemison of Selma, Ala, and
DR.. j. M. Nabrit, secretary Of the
convention.
DR.. Nabrit, however, had not de-
finitely announced that he would
be a candidate, though many pas
tors expressed a belief that he
would be drafted.
Emerging as dark horse" in
the campaign is DR.. j. c. Austin of
Chicago, who over the past ten
years, has at various times been a
candidate Austin buttons were
being passed around by hackers at
the station Monday night.
Austin is the only candidate in
the race, who is not a member of
the faction built up by the late
DR.. L. K. Williams. Many were of
the belief that this was in his ia
vor, since the votes of this faction
would likely be split up between
the several candidates in the race.
The Southeastern special, which
will go straight through to Cleve-
land, is scheduled to arrive in the
convention city about four o'clock
Tuesday afternoon.
The delegation from Georgia is
expected to swell to more than one
thousand, according to DR.. Pinkston.
Many ministers were going in their
own cars. DR.. G. N. Ellis, pastor of

Racket "Buster'
Leaves Chicago

CHICAGO, lamp Clarence
l.. Converse, white, ace investiga-
tor for the Department Of Internal
Revenue, has been transferred to
New York from Chicago after Is
years of activity among Chicago's
gangsters which made him the most
feared dick" in the federal build
ing.
Many of the best known names in
ChicagOS underworld trembled
when they knew Converse was on
their trail. Men like Frank Nitti,
Murray HUMPHREYS, Ralph Capone,
AIS brother, all hated the sound of
his name. And even among certain
of the colored gentry his reputa-
ton was not appreciated. One of
the most famous cases here involv-
ing the income tax of a group of
policy baron brothers was covered
by Converse.
AS the story goes he learned that
the top bracket group of colored
numbers promoters was in the ha-
bit of throwing fabulously ornate
parties. Champagne flowed like wa
ter; favors were trinkets of great
value and the affairs were truly
bacchanalian in character. In or
Ger that too much information
might not seep into the colored
community and, it is said, SO that
Negro walters might not become too
familiar when inebriation was at its
height, the group employed white
caterers ard walters to serve the
parties.
Converse hired himself to the ca
terer as a waiter. He was an adept
at photography and with one OF

best season to give your pup
his course in canine manners.
A little patience, little tact
and he'll learn to walk on his
leash in gentlemanly fashion, to
obey your commands, to do APP
pealing tricks, too.
To get your DOG used to his
leash, lead him around indoors
before venturing out. Holding
the end of his leash with your
right hand and the part near
his collar with your left, you'll
easily control him.
The command Come here" is
perhaps the most important of
his lessons. Learning it. he is
more likely to stay out of mis-
chief. dangerous traffic. Attach
a long cord to his collar and call
him by name, saying Come

pull him gently toward you.
Soon he'll respond without the
