FARRAR CONTEST
WINNER ) TIMES
IN SUCCESSION

Henry Farrar aStounded Ell Cen
tro football fans by outgueSsing all
contestants for the fifth week in
succession. Farrar's ScoreSheet was
marred only by the U.S.C.-San
Diego upset and the Coast Guard
St Mary's tie. With only three
weeks of the contest remaining.
Farrar has gained such COM
manding lead that only one COM
petitor, Wade Ramsey, has a chance
to catch up. Ramsey must win the
next three weeks, and hope that
Farrar drops out of the scoring
altogether in order for tie TO
take place.
Chuck Munson was the only fan
to master-mind the U.S.C.-San
Diego upset, with Donald Temple

tie.

HONEY SWEET

Navy's margin over Penn was
honey-sweet, for that same Penn
team had held Army to 1918 tie
only the week before.
When the dust settled Saturday.
after the Penn and Army debacles
not a major college team remain
ed unbeaten in all the east. But
NaVy's blue-and-gold gonfalon stood
out among the Vanquished, because
the sailors had suffered but one
mishap-the Metre Dame defeat
on their tough inter sectional
schedule. That schedule included
North Carolina Pre-Flight. Cornell,
Duke, Penn State and Georgia
Tech.
Dartmouth has been beaten only
once, unfortunately by PennSyl-
vania; ard it still plays Cornell and
Princeton. Likewise Brown and
Rochester have lest but once: but
their schedules arc not on q par
with Nays. Penn and Army each
have a loss and a tie charged
against them. Cornell. Holy Cross
and Villanova have lost twice.
Bucknell and Temple have three
defeats: Colgate and Penn State,
three defeats plus their tie.
TO HEAD PARADE
Accordingly. it seems that Navy
will head the eastern parade at
least until Nov 81, when the Mid
dies tangle with Army at West
Point in the annual service classic
The Gobs have but one game be-
fore then; they invade Columbia
Saturday. Columbia'S toothlesS
Lions have suffered six straight de-
feats this season.
Navy, enjoying a breather with
Columbia Saturday and an open
date on the goth. will have plenty
of time TO point for Army. Mean
while, the Cadets will have less op-
portunity for such pointing. They
tackle Sampson Naval Training
Saturday. and Brown on the 20th.
The Cadets should win both games;
but they cannot afford to get care
less against either opponent.
HORE LAND FOWER
1t is uncertain now whether Army
or Navy will be favored in their
big collision on the 9th. The
future AdmiralS looked much stron-
ger against Penn than did the
Cadets. But Army seemed to have
more land power against Notre
Dame than the Sailors. Notrc
Dame beat Navy, 33-6, and Army
300, the margin of victory being
almost the same. But against Notre
Danes great line, Navy was held
70 minus seven yards rushing;
whereas Army picked up ia yards
on the ground. 1t is possible that
Hal Hamberg's excellent passing for
Navy more than offset the Cadets
apparent running superiority
Anyway. it's almost certain that
one of these service squads will

This first day OF invasion, going Oh

for ever greater successes for the

fortress.
The American, British and
Canadian assault forces are veterans
of the fighting in Tunisia and Libya.
They successfully scaled some OF

Drive on Italy Seen.
President Roosevelt's message to
the Pope was viewed here as setting
out the principles for the Italian
campaign.
He assured the pontiff that the
invasion was designed ito rid Italy
of Fascism and drive out the Nazi
oppressors" while guaranteeing re-
ligious freedom and undertaking
to spare the Vatican City and Italy's
thousands of churches from devasta-
ton.
This message was viewed as an
indication that the Allies intend to
drive on into Italy.
Among the first objectives of the
invaders were Sicily's 10 major air
fields-bases for the Nazis as well
as the Italians-at the throat of the
Mediterranean.
It was an operation in many re-
