gait, My boys viii testify he really
hits hard when trapped. We all
subscribe TO the notion the football
public will hear a good deal more
of Mr.. Hillenbrand of Indiana be-
fore this season closes.
Detroit also had a standout per-
former in Capt. Vino Banonis. His
center play was flawless and ranks
with the best I've ever seen. That
includes a goodly number of very
good centers.
This fiercely contested battle of
ours with Indiana resulted in a
scoring game. The first
touchdown for Detroit was by Al
Schmidt. Sophomore Hillenbrand's
turn was next and the winning
tally was fashioned by two Detroit
sophomores when Tippy Madarik.

The North Atlantic war zone. as

Yesterday We signed an agree

Under the present circumstances
the government in Denmark cannot,
of course, act in respect of its ter
ritory in the Western Hemisphere,
but We propose to make sure that
when the German invasion of Den
