Pittsburgh Hornets
 Oppose Eagles

New Haven, Nov. 9 - The New Haven Eagles and the Pittsburgh Hornets meet for the first time this season at the Arena on We'd nesday night, with the Smoky City gang coming in with a club far SUD- erior to last years aggregation. But, they will be met by vastly im- proved New Haven club which Ed die Powers now has moving ahead under full steam.
 The Hornets will show many new faces, many of last years veterans having dropped out of the hockey ranks. Coach Larry Aurie has been building since the campaign started. and the Hornets have already put the stinger on several clubs in the east.
 The Eagles will take on the Buff falo Bisons on the Arena surface next Sunday, this being the second appearance of the season here for the charges of Eddie Shore. The Bisons came in here several weeks ago to New Haven's home season. but the Shoremen weren't too po- lite, for they won by score of 6-1, in wild game. However, Powers has surprise planned for next Sunday and the action should be at fast tempo all the way.

 AND BEAU JACK
 TANGLE FRIDAY
Both Were Savin Rock Amateur Stars Three
 Years Ago

New York, Nov. 9-Do you recall the terrific ballyhoo that surroun- ded the debut here of Andy Cohen, Giant second baseman, about fifteen years ago? But Cohen failed to make the grade.
 Do you recall the publicity that preceded the New York debut six or seven years ago of Young Peter Jackson, California lightweight who was touted as one of the best the Coast ever produced? Young Peter Jackson was a dismal failure in New York.
 One can recall dozens of other examples of athletes who failed to live up to advance notices once they hit the Big City. Occasionally, though, there comes an athlete who proves to be even better than the press clippings he carries would in- dicate.
 For instance, there was Joe Louis who was hailed as a certain champ ion before he hit New York and then proceeded. to demonstrate that he was an even greater fighter than his publicity suggested.
 Clicked
 Now there is another young fighter who, when he came to New York little over year ago, had to overcome the handicap of one of the most prolific build-ups ever given ring newcomer, even though he was only preliminary fighter at the time.
 But the youngster-his name is Beau Jack-came through. He came through in glorious fashion. He not only proved he was good but that he was considerably better than the advance ballyhoo said he was.
 Today Beau Jack is only one fight away from crack at the world lightweight title. On Friday night at Madison Square Garden he op- poses Allie StoltZ, at present the No. 1 contender, in a ten-round match. When the contest is ended 1t is Beau Jack who expects to be the No. l contender.
 Since the summer of 194l, when the kinky haired lad from Augusta, Ga, made his first appearance in New York, he has had 20 fights, has won 18, and has registered 10 knockouts. He has won Il bouts in row since the first of the year and of these six ended in kayo tri- umphs. The lad has definitely made the grade.

New Football Ideas Come From Ivy League, Where Coaches Have to Use Imagination; Substitute
 Intellectual Qualities for Ability

less than minute to go was re- quired to pull this one out of the fire, but not until after Harvard had scored two other touchdowns through guile.
 "Richard Cresson Harlow never fails to come through with some thing like that" said Red Blaik. He's the type of coach who makes others lie awake nights"
 Dick Harlow finally stopped Princeton with a looping defense and, in the final period, his varsity bobbed up with a trick backheld shift-from right to left-that drew the Tiger into a costly off-side pen- alty and cracked his defense near the goal line.
 Have you noticed asked Coach Blaik of Army, that most new football wrinkles come out of the Ivy League?
 "The reason for this is that an Ivy League coach frequently has to devise ways and means to stop or hold in check opponents with vastly more material and ability. He has to substitute intellectual qualities for natural brawn nd speed. Hence shifting defenses, etc.
 Coaches at most state universities and schools where there is em- phasis on football simply use the fashioned gnock- em- down and runover'em system. That is the best plan in the end, and they have the men to make it go.
 "I'm not complaining about our series with Notre Dame. It's an old and colorful one and it's nice to play to 76000 people, but you know it's unfair to compare the material at Notre Dame and Army. The fact that Army hasn't won from Notre Dame in Il years shows plainly which has had the bulk of the bet ter players"
 Coach Blaik excused himself. There was little time for converse tion.
 Following the Pennsylvania de- bacle, Red Blaik was trying to find some new-fangled way to cross the Notre Dame T.

New York-Although hockey has given more of its members to the armed forces and war factories than any other branch of sport - more than 50 per cent - 1t launches an- other campaign with confidence.
 You won't recognize the pro- fessional lineups, however, for 75 players who participated in Ma tionai league games last winter have answered the call to arms.
 Rosters are composed entirely of:
 Married men with families.
 Youngsters who have not reach ed military age.
 A few who have enlisted in diff ferent branches Of the Canadian services and, because of the tre- mendous number of recruits awaiting equipment, are awaiting call. and
 Stange as 1t may seem, young sters such as Grant Warwick and Gordon Davidson of the New York Rangers, who enlisted but were discharged because of physi- cal disability.
 The latter is additional proof that if you want to find something wrong with you, consult an Army or Navy doctor. Imagine kids able to skate in 50 major league hockey games being rejected by the armed forces.

West Point.-Earl Blaik was discussing Harvard's almost totally unexpected and Dick Merriwellish triumph over Princeton.
 There was the Tiger with l4- poin lead at the half, Bob Perina in t..e backfield and smashing vic- tories over Navy and Brown and a 6-6 tie with pulverizing Pennsyl- vania.
 There was the Crimson battered by the North Carolina Air Cadets, Penn, Dartmouth and Army and in 7-7 deadlock with capable Will linn and Mary. The Cambridge in- firmary has been busy all fall and there was no indication that this Princeton game would relieve the situation.
 A pass which ate up 65 yards with

was that Madison Square Garden no longer considered .he star spangled outfit a suitable tenant. Also, the club had been reduced, through enlistments, to four ath- letes, one of whom was tied up in war job, and competent replace ments were not available.
 So the National league now consists of six clubs - the New York Rangers, Boston Bruins, Montreal Canadiens, Chicago Black Hawks. Detroit Red Wings, and Toronto Maple Leafs.
 Each outfit plays 50 league games, five at home and five on the road.
 Because they suffered less from enlistments than any other club, and have a wealth of talent, Jack Adams Red Wings are perhaps the team to beat. They surprised last season by going to the Stan ley Cup final and winning the first three games only to see the Maple Leafs, following a shake-up, come on to take the next four and the cherries.
 The Canadiens and Maple Leafs should finish in that order with the Bruins, Rangers and Black Hawks fighting for fourth place and the last play-off spot.
 The Maple Leafs lost eight men to the armed forces-Don and Nick Metz, Wally Stanowski Bingo Kampman, Pete Langelle Bob Goldman, Ernie Dicken and Johnnyq McCreedy. Gordie Drill lon was peddled to the Canadiens Draft laws took four youngsters But the Leafs still have their bril- liant captain and center, SyI- Apps, and an able nucleus.
 Frank Brimsek at the nets gives the Bruins an edge. He is the slickest goal-tender in the dodge but it is problematical whether he will finish the season inasmuch as he may be drafted.
 Draft laws prevented a number of youngsters from crashing big time.
 Lester Patrick perhaps had the biggest rebuilding job. The Rangers lost 10 men. Netkeeper Sugar Jim Henry. defensemen Art Coulter and Bill Juzda. the forward line of Mac and Neil Colville and Alex Shihicky and three other forwards, Norm Burns. Hub Macey and Norm Tus- tin. are in the service.
 Patrick's scout combed the west ern Canada prairie the finest source of material. however. and found some of the most promising young sters to come up in years. So If the Rangers receive acceptable results from their new goal-tender, they easily could be dark-horses.

 The only other professional cir suit operating this season is the American League, which includes Washington, New Haven. Providence and Hershey in the eastern division and Pittsburgh. Indianapolis. Cleve- land and Buffalo in the western.

 New York, Nov. 9-(UP)-Navy's stunning upset of Pennsylvania outstanding Eastern football result of the weekend, has added plenty of zing to the annual Army-Navy classic at Annapolis, Nov. 28.
 When the Sailors took the field against Penn, at Philadelphia Sat- urday, few of the experts gave them chance against the sturdy Quak- CTS who were unbeaten previously in colleague competition. The Mid- dies had lost to William and Mary, Princeton. Georgia Tech and Notre Dame, salvaging only victories over Virginia and Yale.
 Before the Tars' TO triumph over Penn and Armys 13-0 defeat by Notre Dame Saturday 1t seemed that Army would be heavy favor ite over Navy when they tangled in their traditional, transplanted serv- ice brawl at Annapolis. The Cadets appeared to have a much better team than the Middies. They scored four straight victories-over Lafayette, Cornell, Columbia and Harvard-before going to Pennsyl- vania.
 Different Picture Now
 Penn beat Army, 19-0, but week later underdog Navy upset Penn. changing considerably the outlook for the Annapolis classic. The Middies not only licked the Quak- CTS, but their modernized method of achieving the victory makes them menace to the soldiers. They proved themselves masters of the airlanes against Penn, gaining IT yards on forwards, against two for the Quakers, who completed only two in 13 tries.
 True. the Quakers pushed the Middies all over Franklin Field, registering 15 first downs to five, and rolling up 227 yards to 56 by rushing. But every time the Sail- ore were backed to pay dirt, they dug in and repulsed the desperate Quaker attacks. The combination of these magnificent stands their tight air defense and their excel lent passing attack-with Plebe Ben Martin usually on the receiving end resulted in victory.
 Navy has improved remarkably since the start of the season, when Commander John ("Billick") Whel- chel, who preferred a battlewagon, found himself grooming ore of the greenest squads in academy history. Of five letter men, only two were seasoned first-stringers. The rest of the raw aggregation seemed to think that block" and tackle" had something to do with pulleys on ship. Even with night glasses, the outlook was black.
 Navy meets comparatively weak Columbia Saturday, and then can spent two weeks sharpening for Army. Meanwhile the Cadets tangle with Virginia Tech and Princeton.
 We'll Matched
 When the future generals and admirals take the field at Annap- oils on the 28th, betting should be tight and heavy, because the teams now seem well-matched. Navy probably will be a slight favorite on the strength of it's victory over Penn and its go defeat by Notre Dame, which was four points better than he Cadets showing against the Irish.
