Kirkwood Shows
Penchont for
Making Headlines
By BOB MURPHY
SPORTS EDITOR

Joe Kirkwood's alleged non
golf activities are getting him
more headlines these days than
he ever got as the trick-shot OF
the links.
Last week the Philadelphia
pro. according TO the story that
splashed into the paper, was
trying 10 find out if IT was
really true that he was being
investigated by our government
as an enemy agent.
His friends had been ques-
toned for months about Kirk
wood, who. before the war.
made several golfing trips in
Japan.
Whether Joe was cleared we
know not. II there has been any
further developments or revela-
tions they are being hushed.
Today we get the story that
Kirkwood has had his gasoline
coupon books revoked because,
tits said, ne used seven times
as much gas as he was allotted
10 drive to army camps for eX-
hlbitions.
Kirkwood certainly isn't be-
Ing bored these days.

Nemby-Pemby Football

Coach George Munger down
ut Penn has been taking bad
rap from the Ivy League teams
because he forgot 10 tell ms
boys TO pull their punches when
he sent them out on the field
against Princeton and Yale.
On the other hand the Army
footballers have been sharply
criticized by some of the writers
of sports for their humanitarian
splay in being kind 10 Column
Ola last week.
The Cadets were trying for
field goals near the end OF the
game from within the 15-yard
stripe and doing it on first
downs. In other words they
were trying for three points
tand stalling too instead OF
going for seven.
One OF the writer's pointed
out that this isn't the warlke
attitude college football is sup
posed 10 foster.
It's out OF fashion TINS season
NOT TO annihilate your foe.
Football is supposed to be war
and played properly should
serve 10 train fighting men.
Namby-pamby football seems
out Of line. Easing up on n rival
is more a show OF contempt
than a sporting gesture.
II doesn't make for honest
and enduring rivalry.
Tomorrow at Ann ArbOr
Michigan plays Minnesota again
and you won't find any in
stances in the long rivalry be-
tween these two teams where
either coasted after getting
ahead.

has won nine in row but the

They reveal the Wolverines
have won 19, lost y with

under a pile of fish in the care of
Filipino. He rode past the Japa-
nese Sentries and got into Manila
witout being detected He dressed
himself in white suit and lounged
around the streets. watching how
the Japs acted and how his fellow
Filipinos reacted to Jap rule. He
delivered scores of messages from
distracted officers on Corregidor to
their families in Manila. He was in
the home of one officers wife when
a Jap car drove up and an English
speaking captain came into the
house.
Joaquin slipped off his white coat
and went into the kitchen. He
busted himself at the stove. The
Jap captain browbeat the American
woman, until she was sobbing and
the 3-months-old baby in her arms
was crying. Then the Jap walked
into the kitchen. who are you?'
he demanded of Joaquin.
Il am the cook, sir"
"You don't look like the cook to
mel"
Il am sorry, sir, but that is my
occupation"
Finally the Jap went away and
Joaquin slipped out to Corregidor
with his information. He brought
us word that the japanese were
mistreating the Filipinos, con-
f1scating the food, and enforcing
repressive measures. Filipinos who
worked with the American Army or
Navy were being tortured and killed.
Three or four more times joaquin
slipped into Manila and came safely
back again, each time bringing re-
ports of vital Importance to Mac
Arthur.
The Battle of Bataan was espe-
ciaIy intimate and personal for
young American officers like the tall
dark lieutenant and his blond COM
panion whom I had met at Baguio.
I never saw those two again but I
did meet scores just just like them,

yers and reporters and insurance
statesmen few months before.
When our troops backed into
Bataan there came time when
they had to stop retreating and had
to hold their positions. The young
Americans had to go to every Fill
pino kid in their outfits and pat
them on the back.
Hold everything, Joe," they'd say.
Those Japs aren't too tough. Our
help will be here any day now. You
know me and you can trust me when
I tell you that. Let's lick hell out
of them"
Many of the noncoms in the
United States 3lst Infantry were
given commissions and assigned to
duty with the young Filipino troops
Under their steadying influence the
youngsters not only stopped retreat
ing, but they learned to stand and
hold and finally they learned to at
tack. Give a Filipino little edge,
just the slimmest chance of winning,
and he is tough soldier. -
