Newsboy, IS, Labeled
As Gunnery Wizard
By Army Officers
Put in Fort Sill Gloss
To Spur Students On
And Passes With Ease
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
FORT SILL, Okla, June g.
Francis N. Brogdon, Is, is too young
for the Army-or Is he?
He startleS older officer candidates
in a gunnery course by solving their
problems with the greatest of ease.
Capt. P. H. Fenton, gunnery In
structor at this field artillery post,
put the young newsboy In one Of
his classes to stimulate the regular
students and he did the job by
passing all the examinations.
The problems weren't tough, con-
fided Francis, who longs to be an
artilleryman and take pot shots at
Japs and Germans. He always did
like mathematics.
Born on Army Post.
Besides, he's field artilleryman
from away back. He was born on
this Army post-his father, Green
Brogdon, was an artilleryman in the
last war-and he's always fooling
around with the gunners.
He likes the artillery so much he
gave up a job in nearby Lawton to
work in the Army store. Chan
Hassett, his employer. says Francis
earned eight promotions in four
days.
Francis came to the attention Of
ofiicers while selling papers. A
student laughingly offered to buy
one If Francis helped him out with
a meteorological problem. That sale
was easy.
Colonel Another Victim.
Col. E. r. Roberts, commander Of
the 196th Field Artillery, was an
other victim. He'd heard about
Francis and he told him if he could
crack that tough nut of . field
problem up on the blackboard he'd
buy every paper Francis had. Busi-
ness sure was good. Francis said.
Col. Enar G. Gjelsteen, who
heads the gunnery department, re-
ports that Francis passed all gun
merry examinations even though he
was attending high school and
rushed out here at off hours to
attend.
The 15-year-old is counting the
days until he's old enough to 60 to
West Point and come out a lieu
tenant in field artillery.
Oficer friends, whistling at his
wizardry, say they'll be glad to
recommend the appointment.

TAR HEELS ENJOY
GOOD GRID YEAR

CHAPEL HILL, Nov. 30.-North
Carolina hackers looked back on
the hectic 1943 wartime grid sea-
son today and decided Coach Tom
Young, his boys, and his aides had
done pretty good job for their
first year together.
The Tar Heels won six games,
headed by their 9-6 upset of PENIS
national leaders. and lost three.
Two of the losses however, were
to Dukes Southern champions,
who rank with the first five clubs
IN the country, and the other was
TO Georgia Techs Southeastern
champs and Sugar BoWlers.
Tech, by the way, also lost three
games-to Duke Navy, and Notre
Dame-but the Golden Tornado's
schedule, admittedly, was a shade
tougher than that of the Tar Heels.
The Tar Heels margin of loss
TO Tech was to 20, but Carolina
relied up IA first downs to the
Tornado's 5, and many fans fig
ured it might have been a differ
ent story if the TWO teams had met
later in the season. WHEEL Carolina
got over it's 'fumple-itis; and per-
fected it's organization.
In addition to it's upset of Penn,
Cardinals fines performances
perhaps were its clear-cut 1910 vic
tory over Penn State eleven
which was good enough to hold
Navy to 1916 and it's smashing SAT-
triumph over its traditional rivals
from Virginia.
The latter game gave Coach
Young and his boys the honor Of
breaking the tieo series with the
Cavaliers and taking the first lead
Carolina has ever held over its
!arch-rivals in the ancient 48-game
series.
Billy Myers Carolina junior
NROTC from Lexington, and Ho-
sea Rodgers, Maine transfer from
Alabama, led the Tar Heel scorers
for the season with 80 points
apiece.
Barney Poole, husky end from
Ole Miss, was third with IS, and
George Grimes, tailback from Vir-
gln1a, was fourth with 10, all on
extra points. Eddie Bryant, who
was transferred in mid-season,
tied with Jack Fitch and Vernon
Ihomason, also wingbacks for
fifth place with u apiece.
Myers, Grimes, Rodgers, and
Eddie league, an ex-N C. State
star, were the big FOUR in the
otfense for the year. Myers and
league finished cne-two in passing
and total offense.
Coach Young, who was serving
his first year as head coach, was

coach; Henry House, backfield
coach, and three Navy Viz aides

For the first time in the loops
history, more touchdoWns n v e
been scored via passes than on
TIE ground.
With four teams having complete
their 10-game schedules and the
other four almost finished, figures
today showed that aerials have ac-
counted for 1O6 touchdowns while
rashes have netted IS in all league
games.
George Stricken, league publ
cist, who said rushes always pro-
d,1ced more scores in the past,
ascribed the turn-about to grow
ing popularity and more frequent
use of passes, together with an in
crease of approximately six in the
average number Of pl avs per
game.
Responsible for the Increase in
plays, he added is that an aver
ge of two mora penalties are be-
ing called each game n d two
more passes are falling incomplete
thus allowing additional t u a
| rlaying time. On the average,
league contests now provide to-
tai of about 100 plays, including
kickoffs and punts. Stricken at
tributed the rise in penalties of
10 yards per game to sharper Of
ficiating.
Passing artists such as the Chi
cago Bears Sid Luckman, Sammy
Baugh of Washington, Leroy Zim-
norman of Phil-Pitt. Tony Cana
dec and Irv Comp of Green Bay
have helped build an average gain
cf 63 yards for every pass COM
pJeted in the league. Average rush
ing gain is 3.3 yards.
Luckman has had mighty hand
in establishing the Bears new loop
record of 4045 yards gained per
game. The previous league record
of 1888 yards was set by the Bears
in 1882 This weeks runner-up Of

BASEBALL STORM
APPEARS QUELLED
Lands And Bramham Re-
tain Full Power Over
Diamond Game

NEW YORK, Dec. t. R The
revolution against tie control of
Kenesaw M Lands and William
G. Bramham over minor league
baseball collapsed today in a bit
ter brawl that brought roars of
illegality and threats to take the
entire minor league set-up into the
courts.
And when the smoke cleared
away, Lands still was the head
man in power and Bramham was
reelected president Of the Nation
al Association Of Professional
Baseball Leagues for five more
years at $4,000 annually.
The two remained right in the
drivers seats, although it t o o k
some fast ''footwork" by Bram-
ham in his handling of the Ma
tional Association meeting to re-
main there.
The explosion or the floor of
the convention and the resultant
reelection of Bramham and re-
newal for one year of the major
minor league agreement, by which
Lands yields the big stick over
the minors, was by far the hot
test action Of the week-long winter
baseball meetings to date.
Even announcement of the sign
ing of Herb Pennock for a five
year term rs general manager of
the Phillies- easily the biggest deal
of the conclaves tc date-received
no more than a smattering of rails

Larger Crowds

NEW YORK, Dec 1.-tR-Foot-

Just closed suffered a drop of 1874

The decline was greatest in the
South, where a drop of 26.4 per

in the East, 60 per cent.
The national falling off almost
duplicated the declire suffered last
season over the attendance Of 194l
which was an even 10 per cent.
Thus IN the two seasons since

soughed off approximately 80 per

dropped only 6.s pc. cent this fall.
Despite the genera setback there
were isolated cases of increases.

gregate of 100000 persons at six

the aggregate of 104, 600 who bought

While some Of the drop can be
attributed to the rationing of gaso-

some of it also is due to the diff
