R. GOODSON TOO. GOOD FOR CROSBY
 GRID HOPEFULS
AnsOnia COIOred Boy Gets lS Points in zO-O Shut
 out; Naugy Wins

An Ansonia colofed boy. Roger Goodson, was just too good for the entire Crosby football team in it's first game of the season Saturday at the Municipal Stadium. Crosby lost the opener 200 and it's Wilbyis turn next Saturday to see what 1t can do with Goodson and mates in a Copper City game. In between times, Leavenworth opens its 1922 grid season with night game, meet ing Commercial of New Haven under lights Thursday night at the city stadium field on Watertown avenue.
 Originally. the Tech-C Commercial game was carded for Friday, but the lighting equipment needed could not be had for that evening, 50 the game was moved up to Thursday.
 Ends Needed
 From guard to gaurd, Coach Bill Tracy of Leavenworth is fairly well set, but he Is having trouble lining up pair of dependable ends for his Tech Tornado, which held Conmer- cial all even last season in sur prise opening game, as the New Ha- venerS had been expected to win going away. Several new boys have shown up for grid drills in charge of Tracy, "Jarp" O'Neil and Eddie (Chick) Murphy an able Tech player of recent seasons. Jamele looks like the team general at this writing, with KoloShinskas at tackle and a newcomer, Neiddalkowski (Needles for convenience) to be tried at the center post; with Va lunas of basketball fame in the back field.
 One Man Team
 Goodson, a speedy, stifty, we'll balanced Ansonia back. who also dabbles in track and field events, scored all three touchdowns against Crosby, the first coming in the sec- ond period after he had a 9 yard runback in the first canto, and a pass put the ball on the Crosby IT.. Goodson went from there to the 2 but Ansonia lost the ball, but not for long as Crosby kicked after one first down; and then Goodson car ried consistently around end, of tackle and finally from the eight yard line to score easily. Later he ran the ball back from the A to the 20, then to the 8, and over again. In first downs, 1t was 10 to {, An- sonia Crosby tried hard to score in the final few minutes via passes. Blocking and more. speed by most of the backs will be stressed by Crosby's coach, Bill Schofield this week, prior to meeting Torrington at the local stadium next Saturday afternoon. Summary:

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10-(R
"A medium sized American
merchantmen, fighting to the
finish when attacked by two
marauding enemy surface ships.
sank one and badly damaged
the other in a gun battle during
September in the South Atlantic,
the Navy announced yesterday.
The merchantmen herself was
sunk, the Navy said, but when
she went down after furious

heavier armed raider was q mass

vessel, badly damaged, was TAX
ing on survivors from the other.
The incident was the first re-
ported in which an armed mer-
chairman sank an enemy sur
face craft of prey.
The merchantmen traded shell
for shell with the enemy vessels
and when she went down her
engines and steering apparatus
had been crippled and her deck
structures were shambles.
Only ten of the al crew men,
bers and five men of Navy gun
crew survived the battle. The
survivors reached the South At
lantic coast after drifting for 81
days in an open boat.

.AP Suit Seen
as BLow TO
Bill of Rights
WASHINGTON. Dec. -

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10 Up,
- Describing the Justice De-
partment's anti : monopoly suit
against the Associated Press as
evidence of determined eff
fort on the part of the beaureau-
Gratis at Washington to freeze
the Bill of Rights" Representa-
tive Plumley (R VT asserted
today there was mo justifiable
excuse for an attack on freedom
of the press"
''If press and political free
dom are to live, this suit should
be thrown out of court" the
New Highlander said in a speech
prepared for delivery in the
House.
THE people stand to be the
big losers. If, by any chance,
this suit is lost, the people will
have been deprived of one of
the safeguards of democracy"
He described the action as
more than a lawsuit" and said
it was IAN effort to take some
thing away from the people that
is needed now as never before
in our history"
THE monopoly suit against
the Associated Press seeks to ac-
complish a total governmental
control, to constitute a greater
monopoly, as it, under its guise
of relief for the public, would
allegedly d estroy a lesser"
Plumley said.
'In the attempt OF the ad-
ministration circuitously an d
surreptitiously to throttle a free
press, there is concealed Weap-
on even more potent and dan
gerous and poisonous than was
it's effort to control the court"
He said the government cal
ready holds the power of life
and death over radio" and gives
orders to the motion picture in
dustry. leaving the newspapers
as our bulwark, frank, free and
fearless"
"The very nature of the AS
sociated Press organization" he
said, guarantees objective re-
porting, an unbiased and un-
colored report of each of the
events about which it tells. That
is what the New Deal hates.
THE right of association OF
men or of newspapers with as
sociates of their own choice in
free speech or free press is a
fundamental right - as funda-
mental as the Bill of Rights it
self. What profits it the liberty
of citizens if the free speech
right is sustained but no one
permitted to come and hear? Or
what of demand that news
shall be gathered, printed and
made public only when done in
conjunction with all corners?
A fundamental American
right is threatened in this suit
against the Associated Press. If
it is lost, the whole American
people are the losers, not just the
Associated Press"

The boot camp" of the U. s.
Naval Aviation Reserve base
here is about $50 miles from the
ocean, but the lingo is as salty
and the atmosphere as nautical
as if the camp were on the At

Aye, mate, although there
isn't so much as one roWboat on
the base, and all the water
comes out of faucets, the young
recruits speak as seagoing men.
Many of these "boots" never
have seen any ocean, and some
of them probably will be petty
officers before they know the
feel of salt spray on their faces.
But they can tie a bowline-on-a-
