By HARRY CRIMSON NEA Service Sports Editor

New York, Oct. 21.-Bill Kern was n New York with West Virginia for he Fordham game, and the conver- yation swung around to the two most celebrated fifth down instances In football history.
 Kern's Carnegie Tech team was outplaying Notre Dame late in the third period of scoreless battle in South Bend in 1888.
 Johnny Getchell. the referee, was blamed for that fifth down." eX- plained Fern, although 1t actually was the fault of Joe Lippe, the lines man.
 "Lippe turned the downs stick too late. Getchell saw the and said: Third and enc.
 Paul F'riedlander, my quarterback pointed to the scoreboard and said: The scoreboard says it's fourth down
 Ball was exactly in mid-field. Friedlander wanted to kick and put Notre Dame in the hole, but when Getchell insisted 1t was third down, anG threatened to penalize us for taking too much time out, the quar- terback sent Ray Carnelly through the line. Carnelly gained three or four yarGs, but fumbled and the ball rolled bacl. enough to nullify the gain and leave us short of a first down.
 By this time Getchell realized his mistake and readily admitted it, but we lost the ball.
 Loss of the ball on what turned out to be an inexcusable mistake, and the long argument that fol- lowed, so upset my kids that on the first play Milt Peipul ran smack dab through the middle of our line fer 90 yards, and then Bill Kerr scored the only touchdown of the game on an end around play.
 Poor Getchell took an awful riding as did Red E.iesell when he pulled his fifth down in the Dart mou.h-Cornell game a couple Of years ago. Fr,esell, who is a buyer for a Pittsburgh department store. still signs his letters in red pencil

 Sure I like the Army. Of course, we all have our ups and downs, but the good times always outweigh the bad. Then, too, it's not every one who can wear the uniform of the United States. I'm proud to be a part of Uncle Sam's armed forces. At present my two big interests are winning this war and seeing my mother again. You know I haven't seen her for five years" Then with that faraway look in his sincere blue eyes he added, Wouldn't it be wonderful thing if the United States and Canada could somSday become one big country?"
