All CLUB CANNING
 CHAMPION CHOSEN

Hartford, Oct 20-Eldah Shanley, 19, daughter of MT. and Mrs. Lloyd T. Shanley of Harwinton, was chosen today as All club canning champion of Connecticut and awarded an all-expense trip to the National All club Congress at Chi- cago in December,
 The rev champion, who was run- fler-up in the state contest a year ago, has been a All club member for nine years, taking part in poul- try and dairy work as well as home- making projects. With her mother and sister, Beulah, who is now q sophomore at the University of Connecticut, she has canned hun dreds of quarts of produce annually for family use and for sale. During the past summer they canned be- tween 500 and 600 quarts, although Miss Shanley says that this is less than the usual amount. Her father, she explains, was short of help and she and her sister worked outdoors with their brother, Lloyd, and as e result accomplished less than us- ual in their canning work.
 Eldah finished high school last June and Is now working behind the counter at a Torrington cafe- teria, going to night school four days e week in addition. Her anl- bition Is to save enough money from her wages to set up poultry business with her father.

U. s. Navy, With Its Air Arm, Given 2-to-1 Superiority Over Japanese Fleet

By THOMAS M. JOHNSON NEA Service Military Writer

@N@-~~Ne~-N
 Washington, oct. 20--Tf Japan goes to war with the United States, Britain, Russia and the Dutch East Indies-or even if she goes to war with the United States alone-then Japan stands an excellent chance of committing hari-kari for Hitler's benefit.
 She would draw of some forces and supplies that would otherwise hinder his conquest of Russia, but those forces and supplies would very probably crush her before Hit Ter could cross Siberia to her aid.
 That seems to be the sum of the factors in a war that would prob- ably be decided at sea. Narrowing 1t down to the naval odds as be- tween this country and Japan, they seem to be 2 to l against Japan.
 If her navy is, as spokesman has just said, Itching for a fight" then the ailment is of recent or- igin; for her admirals, who get around more than her generals, know that they are very apt to emerge from such a fight quite Mt- orally burning with defeat.
 DIFFICULTIES
 FOR JAPAN
 How that defeat came about would depend upon where the war was fought. If Japan goes north ward against Siberia, she hits ter rible weather, two tough Red armies aided by many submarines operating from Vladisvostok against Japanese supply routes and boinbers blasting Japanese cities within easy range. If only to protect the Vladisvostak entry-port for supplies for Russia, President Roosevelt conceivably would risk some opposition here and send the Pacific fleet the short CT way from Hawaii to engage the Japanese, before the Nazis could fight their way the tremendous dis tance from Europe.
 If Japan goes southward, she aids Hitler less but herself more direct ly. For southward are the raw ma terials she craves. And yet attacking British Singapore means difficult jungle fighting and brings in the Dutch East Indies and Russia srlre- ly, and perhaps this country, to pro- tect our ribber, tin and Singapore naval base and the Philippines. And from the Philippines, American forces could attack the exposed sea routes for a Japanese army pressing southward.
 HOW U. S. COULD
 FIGHT THE WAR
 One of two American naval con- captions of a war against Jepan has envisaged our attacking supply ships and transports down the coast of China--plus Q long-range blockade of trade routes leading to Japan it. self, for the purpose of starving Japan's war industries. It could be done largely from Manila with cruis- CTS, submarines, destroyerS and

The Man in the Tower has heard several cOnl- pIants recently around town and particularly in the South End, about the noise which seems to accompany SO many local wedding celebrations. No doubt the participants in such ceremony have every right to feel happy not to say exuberant have their imme. diate friends But the practice of driving around the ing at full strength does not endear newlynarried couples to the public All the world loves lover, and wishes the best of luck to every bride and groom but in return it doesn't seem too much to ask them to celebrate the happy event with little more concern for others thus contributing their share to the ctys anti-noise campaign.

Ashland Homecoming With 26-0 Win

In the third period, the Beavers
tailed again when Swank inter-
cepted an Ashland pass near midfeld
and raced unmolested across the
goal line. For the second time, the
attempt at conversion was unsuc-
cessful.
Two more touchdowns came in the
fourth quarter. Sommers intercepted
an Ashland pass and went all the
way to the Ashland 13 before he
was downed. Graham then pegged
a perfect pass to Soash that the
lanky end lugged across for the
third score. Hunsberger's place kick
was good for the extra point. ~
Shortly after, Graham scored the
final touchdown on a 12-yard run
after the Beavers had worked the
ball into threatening position again.
Soash's place kick netted the addi-
tional point, and the Beavers had
won, 26 to 0.

Bluffton colleges pent-up desire
for victory burst its bounds last
Saturday afternoon as the Beavers
trounced Ashland, 20 to 0, in the
Ashland Homecoming at that place.
1t was the second time this year
that the Beavers have made good
showing against Ohio Conference
teams, the other occasion being a
to tie with Capital university.
In running up the one-sided score
against Ashland last Saturday, the
Burckymen dominated play during
the entire course of the game, and
once scoring ice was broken in the
second quarter the Beavers had clear
sailing.
= A successful pass, Graham to
Soash, took the oval to the four
yard line early in the second quar-
ter and set up Buttons first touch
down. From that point Graham
hammered thru the line to score, but
Bluffton failed to convert.

TEAM STANDINGS

For the second time this year with
a critical Western Buckeye league
game coming up, Bluffton High must
go into the tilt with one of its back
field stars shelved by injuries. -.
Fred Hermann will not be in uniform
for the Pirates when they tackle Wa
pakoneta here Friday night, and his
loss at fullback will be a severe blow
to the locals who have depended on
his accurate passing for much of their
success so far this year. Hermann
received a wrenched knee in a game
with ST. Marys last Thursday that
threatens to keep him out of the
lineup for the rest of the season
Bluffton was faced by a similar sit
uation when the Pirates played Van
Wert's strong aggregation here early
in October with Pete Schmidt out of
the lineup. :. That time they rose to
the occasion and played one of tte1r
best games of the season to battle the
much larger Cougars to a to tie.
The Pirates need a victory over Wa
pakoneta this week to remain in the
thick of the fight for the league title.
Something unusual in the way of
pre-game promotion greeted the
Bluffton College Beavers when they
arrived at Ashland college last Sat-
urday for their contest with the grid
ders of that place. Wetween two of
the trees on the Ashland campus had
been constructed a giant dam, and
above it waved a sign, "Dam the
Beavers. Incidentally, Bluffton won
26 to o..
Bobby Graham, of Lima, qualities
hands down as BIuffton colleges hard
luck champion of the year. ;. Against
Capital Graham broke free and
streaked 65 yards for a touchdown
that was nullifed by a clipping pen
atty against Bluffton. :. Last week at
Ashland he lost two more scores on
touchdown runs of 81 and 20 yards
because of penalties. Despite that
handicap, however, he scored two
touchdowns that were permitted to
stand in the record book. :. Dick
Wenger also comes in for his share
of hard-luck every year. :. Last seas
on he was injured in the fifth game
of the year. /. Against Ashland last
Saturday the fifth game this season
he received leg injury that will
bench him for the remainder of the
season.
