BETH BLAINE


If you're under the delusion
that women can't keep secrets,
have you heard about the mobile
library of the Red Cross that
supplies, books and magazines to
the men in isolated outposts who
are very definitely a military
secret of the Nations Capital?
Bright, alert Mrs. Milton j. Blake
is the chairman of the library,
and just try to get Mrs. Blake to
tell you any more about it than
that. Her lips are sealed, as
tightly sealed as those of her
workers. But the important
thing is that the books do reach
the boys whose lonely 24-hour
duty is relieved considerably by
their arrival.
We asked Mrs. Blake how it
all came about. She told us that

Ypsilanti High School completed
its most successful football sea
son in Is years with a 81 to vic.
tory over Howell High School.
Playing on a cold windswept island
gridiron Ypsilanti High punched
over three touchdowns for a deci-
siye verdict.
Howell. co: he'd by Augie De-
Froscia, former Normrl College and
City League athlete, put up a stub
born battle but a more experienced
and better manned Purple and
Gold eleven predominated through
out the game.
Little johnny Kelly played his
last and probably most brilliant
game OF his high school career.
Passing. running, punting. and
drop-kicking. Kelly was the i'm
portant difference between the two
squads. He was either directly
or indirectly connected with all
three OF the Ypsilanti scores. He
had valuable assistance from the
other ten seniors and members OF
the team. Jim Miller. Warren Kid
der and Duane Drake were also
outstanding for the Braves.
The Purple and Gold, the first
time they got the ball, marched
81 yards to score. Kelly skirted
his left end for 20 yards to put the
ball on the Howell 10 after sew
eral line plays and short passes
had brought 1t iom the lpsilanti
46. A couple OF plays later Kelly
tossed TO Kidder in the end zone
for the touchdown. Kelly then
dropkicked the extra point.
Howell was right back in the
game as they took the kickoff and
started a drive down the field,
Cooke mad, 9 yards through the
line, Murphy passed IL yards to
Bennett, and then ran II more to
the Ypsilanti SO. Then the Braves
stiffened here and Howell lost the
ball on downs.
The Braves made another bid to
score in the first half. Miller
caught a pass by Kelly and was
pulled down on the Howell 20.
Kidder on the next play reeled off
8 yards on reverse TO the l6
but Howell here held and took
over on downs.
After the intermission another
close call was STAYED OF by a
determined Howell team. Kidder
ran 80 yards to the Howell 40,
Kelly made II more on a single re-
verse, and few plays latter made
II a first down on the ten but
here again the Green and Gold
rose to the occasion.
II was not until late IN the third
period that the Purple and Gold
could score again. This was an
other long march which started
from their own IS. Kidder caught
a pass by Kelly and was downed
on the visitors Is. Wolters went
of tackle IA yards to the 2 yard
line. Kelly then plunged over
and again dropkicked the extra
point making the score IA to 0.
The Braves honored their cap
tain, John Drake, by letting him
score the last touchdown. A weak
ened Howell team punted out on
their own Al. Kelly then passed
10 yards to Kidder who ran to
the one yard line before being
brought down. On the first play
Fred VOTERS slipped over but the
officials called II back and penaliz-
ed Ypsilanti Ave yards. Drake
was then handed the ball and he
ploughed through center for the
marker after which Kelly convert
ed.
Although the final tallies show IL
first down for YpsiIanti and eight
for Howell, the latter at one time
was leading in this department.
Most OF teir gaining was done in
their own territory however. The
