 New York, Oct. 13-(UP)-War- time transportation difficulties may cause the colorful Army-Navy foot ball classic on Nov. 28 to be shifted from Philadelphia's huge Municipal stadium to the smaller New York Polo Grounds-if the pigskin pag- cant is staged at all.
 There is no certainty that the service extravaganza will be held. Final decision rests with the War and Navy Departments. However, Lieut. Lawrence (BifD Jones. graduate manager of athletics at West Point, told New York foot ball writers:
 "In spite of what has been said in the papers, we are still hopeful that the game will be played"
 Problem
 The newspaper reports to which Jones referred came out of Wash ington more than month ago. Those reports stressed the uncer- tainty of holding the Cadets-Mid- dies game and emphasized that Undersecertary of War Robert P. Patterson and his assistants were making a particular study" ot sports events which gather peo- ple together from considerable dis tances" and place an unnecessary load on transportation facilities.
 Since then several college games

TWO TEAMS TIED IN NERO ALLEY LEAGUE
BrOOksides, Metros Are All Even; Action Tonight;
 Sharon, SaIemi Best

Alley competition in the Mercan- tile Bowling league has already be- gun to tighten up after an early season in which the Brooksides were apparently the team to beat" and still are, for that matter, though the Metropolitans have caught up with them in the matter of games won and lost, resulting in both teams sharing the league leadership as the teams go into the fifth week of competitor tonight on the Sena alleys.
 Tn 12 games rolled to date, the leaders have won g, lost 3 with the Brooks scheduled to tangle with Speedy Parcel tonight; and the Metros to go up against Fulton Markets. Matzkin Furniture and Verriker Paint are also paired for action, with Brock-Hall and the A and P teams also to meet at g PM.
 Leaders
 Individually, Mike Sharon, former Industrial league pinner with Amer ican Brass, has been signed by the Brooksides and is leading the field with a 130 average for 12 games, closely followed by Teddy Salemi of Metropolitan whose 128 average for the same number of games makes the race for individual honors par ticularly interesting at this time.

have been transferred to new sites requiring less use of railroads and automobiles. Special trains to race tracks in the New York area have been. discontinued But no official ruling has been made regarding the Army Navy game, which attracts more than 100000 spectators and last year required total of 56 special trains for transporting spec tators and regiments of Cadets and Midshipmen.
 Addressing the weekly luncheon of the writers, Jones admitted that such 8 movement of special trains this, year would be quite a load on the busiest strip of railroad tracks in the nation" He was re- ferring to the Pennsylvania road, between New York and washing ton.
 Even if the game does not take place in Philadelphia, we want 1t held somewhere" Jones said. Asked if he had any alternative, he re- piled:
 Boys Want It
 "One I can offer now is New York city. Perhaps the transporta- tion is less complicated, and with the subways there is no transporta- ton problem of getting to the field" He added that it was un- likely either the Midshipmen or Ca- dets could take time of from their duties to attend the classic, "but they want it played"
 Meanwhile athletic officials of both academies are arranging for disposal of tickets on the basis that the game will be held in Philadel- phias out-of- -the-way Municipal stadium, which seats 102,000 per- sons. If the classic is switched to New York, it cannot be held al Yankee stadium, which can handle about 75,OOO fans, because Fordham is playing the North Carolina Pre- Flight school at the stadium, Nov 28. It would have to be staged at the Polo Grounds, accommodat about 60,000. If the shift from Philadelphia to New York is made a general reorganization of the seating plan will be necessary, anc perhaps some of the tickets already assigned will have to be cancelled The demand for tickets has beer only slightly less than last year.
 Annapolis?
 There have been rumorS that of- lficials at Washington are consider ing staging the game at Annapolis on Nays home field, which car accommodate only about 23,000, but Lieut. .-Col. Jones said he had not heard the rumors. The contest hasn't been played at either An napolis or West Point since 1893 The last time it was held in New York was Dec. 12, 1881.
 Regardless of the site, it appear! Army will be favored. The Cadets opened their season with two vic tories, beating Lafayette, 14-0, ant Cornell, 28-8, while the Middies got of to faltering start, beating Vir- ginia but losing to William anc Mary, and Princeton.

"Ain't Got No COmnleit'' Joe Tells United Press
 Man Last Night
BY PAUL SCHEFFELS United Press Staff Correspondent

BY PAUL SChEtr trEL0 United Press Staff Correspondent
 New York, Oct. -(UP)-Out of a mass of conflicting reports, one fact remained clear today: Sgt. Joe Louis of Fort Riley, KanS., still ruled the boxing world as heavy- weight champion and would con- tinue to do so for 8 long time.
 Louis came out of 24-hour "re- tirement"-quickeSt title vacation in ring history-in telephone con- versation with Promoter Mike Jacobs last night.
 The fabulous colored lad, be. wildered at the furore his reported retirement had aroused, denied through Jacobs that he had re- linuuished the crown he won from Jimmy Braddock in 1887.
 As reported by Jacobs, the cham pion said he was misquoted and had no intention of quitting tho ring.
 Sure, I told that fellow that ) wouldn't do any more boxing but, naturally, I only meant while was in the army" Louis said. I'm here to take orders and I can't fight until the army lets me or h. til I'm out of the army altogether"
 The champion said that when he returned to Fort Riley and discov- cred all the excitement in regard to his retirement" he was shocked.
 Wants to Fight
 T had no such idea in mind," Louis told Jacobs. T told that re- porter I might be too old to fight when this is all over, but I was just as surprised as everybody else at the report that was giving up the title. Certainly, want to fight again."
 Earlier, Co-Manager John w. Peterborough had told the United Press in Detroit that he had con- f1rmed that the champion was mis- quoted.
 T talked to Joe on long dis tance," Peterborough said, "and he said he had told a reporter he is through with boxing only while he is in the army. He said the re- porter questioned him while he was hurrying away from a football game in Omaha"
 Peterborough reiterated that the champion "may retire" when the war is over but that he hopes he will not be too old to get back into the ring after he leaves the army"
 A United Press correspondent lo- cated Louis in the Fort Riley rec reation hall last night and told him of Jacobs and Roxborough's state- ments.
 "Ah ain't got no comment" Joe said.
 He's in Again
 In Cleveland Jimmy Johnston, manager of Bob Pastor, wasted no time in claiming the title.
 There's no question about it," Johnston said. Pastor has beaten every other top-notch contender In the heavyweight ranks"
 The National Boxing association. through its president, Abe J. Greene, announced that Taml Mauriello, Lee Savold and Pastor would be ranked as the three top men in the event Louis had stepped down.
 Apparently Peterborough read Joe's qgotes best.
 He said:
 ''The last time I talked to Joe a couple of weeks ago, we agreed that he might retire after the war was over if he was too old to continue fighting. That's what I think he meant"

Gophers' Daley Gets Fast Start As Back-of- Year
Speed Moves Him From Full To Halfback
BY BURTON BENJAMIN TEA Service Staff COrrespOndentl

(NEA Service Staff COrrespOndentl
 Minneapolis, Oct. 12-The back of -the-year (you with us, MT. Sink wich?) once more glitters in the golden jersey of Minnesota.
 Power-laden Bill Lahey, a G. foot 2-inch, 2O5-pound dynamo is the Gophers' current edition of Pug Lund, Andy Uram, Harold Van Every, George Franck and Bruce Smith.
 Despite his brawn, Daley has the binding speed of a sprinter. So fast is the 23-year-old Mel rose, Minn., senior that Dr. George Hauser saw fit to transfer him to hahback after two pulver- izing years at the fullback slot.
 Preseason roundups had listed Daley as the successor to such Gopher immortals as Herb Joest- ing, Bronko Nagurski, Stan KoSt-' ka and Sheldon Beise. He had led the tea min yardage gained last season with 726 yards in 157 att tempts for an average of 4.61. He was top scorer with nine touch downs. AS a sophomore he aver aged 7.45 in 28 tries.
 LAST MINUTE SPRINT
 ALMOST BEAT SEAHAWKS Daley took the switch in stride. He picked up the delicate nuances that a tailback requires and a pulling fullback does not. Be- witching changes of pace, side e4o,ae aal fai,okc hanan0o mart 0f his repertoire.
 Against the Iowa Seahawks, coached by Lieut.. Col. Bernie Bierman, his former tutor, Daley almost salvaged a victroy single handed.
 He rambled 1858 yards in IT attempts, for 92 yards per carry against a line that is typical Herman dyke. Tn the first quar- ter he sailed 54 yards for a touch down on double lateral.
 One point in arrears with a minute and l9 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter, Daley fad ed on his own 50 to pass. Ap- parently trapped with no receiv- CTS open, he adagioed through the entire Seahawk team for what seemed to be a touchdown.
 The officials ruled that Dick Fisher, former Ohio State great had butted Daley out-of-bounds on the one yard line. Green Vic Kulbitski nervously fumbled on the first play and the Gophers were beaten.
 Daley scored four times in his first two games, gained 291 yards for nine plus average per play
 The opposition-Pittsburgh which beat Southern Methodist, and the Iowa CadetS-certainly was no soft touch.
 Versatile Daley is a murderous blocker, works at any backfielC post. He has typical Gopher rug. gedness, played 413 bruising min utes last season against such love. lies as Washington, Illinois, Pitts burg, Michigan, Northwestern Nebraska, Iowa and Wisconsin. DALEY FITS INTO
 MINNESOTA EYSTEM
 Minnesota, under Herman ol Hauser, does not indulge in sucf I football refinements as hipper' dipper and sleigbt-o Int Gophers will knock 'em over anc their backs have the speed tt give plays split-second precision.
 Their fullbacks can powder line, and their tailbacks can sprin through a hole. But 1t is not { drab system dependent on brut' force. Shake a Gopher loose ant he can be cute item in the opel field.
 In Mainspring Bill Daley, wht combines power and speed witt deception and savvy, Minnesot; has a worthy successor to its alum nj of football immortals.
