 New York, Nov. 2e--tUp) Almost 100000 folks who want to know more about the Army and the Navy in this year of preparedness will file into Municipal stadium at phil- adelphia Saturday for the 42nd meeting Of the service football teams.
 It'a the biggest show of the year before the seasons biggest crowd. The elements have been none too klnd to the last several Army~Navy games but the marching of the Akiddies and the parade of the Cadet Corps form Q spectacle that mud, rain or snow cannot dim.
 Fathers and mothers and girls friends from back home will be in the stand to watch performances of sons and sweethearts while to barracks in snushrooming defense outposts and to wardrooms far out ct seas standard and short wave radios will bring the account Of the game.
 Navy Is e firm favorite, with a record marred only by Q heart- breaking loss to Notre Dame and Q scoreless tie with Harvard. The Middles have . bruising line, and speed and power in the backfield take them places. They roleld up over 30 yards on the ground against Princeton last week despite the fact that the score was only g to o.
 But the Army has more than the spirit of the traditional fray to put Into the proceedings. Earl Blaik has turned out Q smooth eleven in his first year at West Point. It has lost only to Pennsylvania and Harvard and held Notre Dame - the team that beat the Navy--to 0 scorless tie. The Cadets should be closer to full strength than in their last several games.
 The Army.Navy marks the end of the season on the Eastern seaboard. The only other games Saturday are Boston CollegesHoly Cross, Fordham New York University and Pittsburgh Carnegie Tech, renewals of old ri- valries which finds the flrst-named teams substantial favorites.
 Meanwhile the East has produced one virtually certain bowl team Duquesne, and the Fordham Rams haven't given up hope of entraining Co somewhere for 0 New Years day outing. The Fordhams satisfied their packers that the Pitts upset should never have happened when they roughed up St. Marys S5 to 2 last Saturday. An equally decisive triumph over N. Y. U. this week would have the athletic office at Rose Hill fairly jumping each time the telephone rings,

Two American Hockey League players, Bobby Dill of the Spring. field Indians and Harry Frost oi the Hershey Bears, are the only members of the circuit to date who have been able to accomplish the That trick" the scoring of three goals in 6 single contest. Frost was the first to turn the trick, against the Providence Reds, then young Dill, playing his first season Of professional hockey, came through at the expense of the Buffalo BisonS.
 Tn each instance the scoring was limited to goals, with neither Frost nor Dill being In as position to pick up an assist during their high-scor- ing games. And, as result, 0ordy Pettinger, also of Hershey, remains as the only player in the league who has arnassed a total or five points in a single contest :. This accomplishment also was at the expense of Providence, when Pettinger blasted home @ goal and assisted in four others.
 Tn fact, this Pettinger twice has tallied at least three assists in a single contest during this present young season. He first came through with a goal and three as- slsts against the New Haven Eagles for a total of four points, then fol- lowed with his five-point exhibi- ton again at Providence. |. Three members of the New Haven club also have scored three assists in single game, George Patterson and Don Willson against Provi- dence and Gus Manctlso against the Pittsburgh Hornets. The only other player with three assists in one night is Roger Jenkins of Hershey who also picked on Provi- dence.
