Purdue Leading Way
Expected to
Share Title

Chicago. oct 25-lNS- Michi-
gan and Purdue appeared destined
today to share the Western Confer
ence football crown unless Navy
orders further y AIKEN either team
for the remainder of the season.
Michigan's smashing 40 TO 6 vic
tory over Minnesota at Ann Arbor,
the most decisive whipping absorb
ed by the Gophers in their 5l'year
history. stamped the Wolverines as
one OF the outstanding elevens OF
the Midwest.
Purdue's decisive % to Z victory
over the Iowa Hawkeyes at Iowa
City, gives the Boilermakers an un'
defeated slate thus far. As Michi'
gan and Purdue will not meet this
year. they appeared to be headed
for a share in the Big Ten. title.
Purdue still must meet Minneso'
ia. but the poor showing the Goph'
ers made last Saturday forecasts
victory for the Boilermakers.

His tone was altogether light
now and teasing. all his seriousness
gone. Karen preferred him that
way, but she preferred, as well, for
him to quit saying things that
would make her blush. although,
thank heaven. It was quite dark
now.
She said, II ought 20 may
be we'd better 90 down." She would
not offer again to light the lamp.
They had better be going back
downstairs, not because 1t was not
safe for them to be here together
she could feel that chilly sensation
creeping up her spine when Marty
smiled into her eyes that way
but because Paul probably would
be down stairs by now. However.
she did not mean that they must
go down Immediately for that rea-
son, either.
Martin said, "All right II
you want, and since you always
know best" She could not see his
face too we'll now, but his voice
was the hooking one he used to
tantalize her. She suspected he even
read something of what went on in
her thoughts and was laughing at
her.
Which was why she turned too
quickly on high heels and slipped
on the bare floor so that he had to
catch her by her elbow and steady
her.
He said, You're not trying to
pull that fainting stunt on me this
soon" His voice still slightly

give you my word II won't occur
again, knowing you will begin to
think 1t does not mean much-any
word or promise or apology Of
mine"
Its all right" Karen was truly
grateful for the darkness now; she
knew her face was crimson; her
voice was q bit breathless, since
now her knees were shaky and her
pride threatened besides. Should
she forgive him for NOT kissing
her, along with the rest? That
made her pride shattered the more,
as he had been stronger than she.
The only thing TO do waste put 1t
all aside, as II 1t had not happened.
as II 1t did not matter II 1t had.
She started down the steep
stairs, really difficult now In such
darkness, although there was
light down the long hall that
helped. She knew Martin was fol-
lowing her, but he did not say any
thing more or offer to assist her.
What was there to say? Nothing
that would entirely erase It all, or
patch 1t up, or help. What was
there to do. except ignor, what had
taken place, pretend that that mo-
ment had never existed. although
any such pretense was folly, any
erasure impossible.
Paul was there, In the library
with her father. They had been
talking on the many subjects they
held in common so that Paul would
not have marked any delay in
Karen's appearance. She hoped she
looked Just the same, although she
felt so different. She had had time
to compose her expression. for that
tell-tale color to leave her face.
She had been wondering all
through a long miserable day how
she could face Paul, knowing about
Eva and that he had not been the
one to tell her. Now it was Karen
who had something more to con-
ceal, something more on her con-
science. Yet that made this meet
ing easier, since its secrets and
duplicity were shared. although
there now would be more to
straighten than ever before.
She introduced the two men, her
fiance and her friend. For she did
, not. strangely, blame Martin again
altogether; she could believe in his
word, just as she must continue TO
believe in Paul You simply could
not stop believing in the things and
people you had to believe in.
: She said, I've been wanting you
two to meet and be friends" Even
as she said it, she realized 1t was

THIRTY-THREE


KAREN HAD not been up in the
tower for years. not since she and
Denise had used to come up there
as children during their play. Oh,
maybe she had been there time
or two since, with some visitor, like
Marty now, who had professed an
interest. The tower not only was
dificult to reach because OF the
narrow winding stairway, but when
one got there 1t was small and bare.
There were cobwebs now and dust;
a bat few above Karen's bright
head and cut one window that was
slightly opened.
She was surprised that there
should even be a lamp and matches.
They must have been left there
when some other guests had ex-
pressed curiosity, since the tower
was out-of-the-ordinary and did, on
clear days, afford an excellent view.
From II one could see far out to the
horizon of the big ocean; one could
see for many miles in every direc-
ton with good binoculars.
She did not see why Marty had
asked her not to light the lamp, I'M
less he preferred this gloomy gray
of dusk. 1t did hold sort Of eerie
beauty, almost a ghost-like quality.
She said, ITS rather gloomy at this
time of night. Facing the east, 1t
doesn't get the rainbow hues of a
western sunset. There's really
nothing to see, as you can see, ex-
cept lots and lots Of ocean and
sky" Soon 1t would be too dark tc
see that much. But they would not
stay up here, not she and MARTYR
alone in this twilight hour. There
wasn't any moon tonight to bt
afraid of-the sky was full o.
mackerel clouds which meant there
might be rain tomorrow.
Are you sure no one comes w
here? ?" Martin asked. He seemed

Special Lighting For Pep-Bartolo Bout

Boston, May 27. UP)-Dimout authorities gave their approval to- day to lighting arrangements at Braves field for the worlds feather weight championship battle June 8 between titlist Willie Pep of Hart ford, Conn, and Salp Bartolo of Boston.
 Co-Promoters Jack OBrien and Eddie Mack said that lighting ex- perts had arranged special shields and bulb-covers which would aim light beams directly on the ring but prevent sky glow.
 Unusual
 "There'll be plenty of light for the fighters and the fans to see,' said Mack. This will be one of the most unusual lighting arrange ments ever made since we must conform to army standards. We've done just that and still not inter- fered with the light on the ring
 Mack said that there would be no difficulty for fans to see from any seat in the National League baseball field. Preliminary bouts, he said, would start in daylight with the championship match starting just about dusk.
 The ring will be set up near home plate on the field in excellent view Of the entire grandstand.

 agers Agree

Defeated only twice this season and by the same opponent, Water towns Taft Prep boys come to Wa terbury this afternoon for a baseball game against Leavenworth at the Municipal Stadium. Having already won from Tech in WatertoWn, the private schoolboys were favored to win again, with Sears and Henne as rival pitchers figured to put on a mound war that should keep the game close all the way.
 Wilbys Wildcats were due in Sey- mour today, and at Nauatuck Sat urday; while Leavenworth and Cros- by will finish the season for Tech at the city stadium Saturdy after noon.
 Outstanding game of the week was scheduled in Torrington at 5:30 o'clock this afternoon, a twilight game between undefeated To1Ting- ton seven-game winners in the Naugatuck Valley league and Wa tertown high, winners of nine games in 10 played, including the last seven in succession. Seymour high, Wilbys opponent today, was the only team to take the measure of the Silktown Indians who get a chance to square the series next Monday on its home field.

CR|D-CONSC|OUS CONCRESSMEN
 TRYING TO HELP
MOnrOney, Dilweg and Weiss Seek to Aid COl=
 lege Sports

Washington, May 27 UP) - Three former gridiron heroes now members of Congress kicked off to- day in battle against the War De- partment's ban on soldier student participation in college athletics.
 The three-reps. A. s. (Mike) Mon- roney, D., Okla, La Vern R. DilWeg, D., Wis.,. and Samuel A. Weiss, D., Pa.--maintain that if the ban is al- lowed to stand 1t will sound the death knell of inter-college football.
 They said the interference runner on the other side they would have to watch was Maj. Gen M. J. White, assistant chief of staff in charge of personnel, who wrote the directive which keeps the army's college trainees off the athletic fields.
 Looks Good
 Weiss said that he and his two colleagues yesterday conferred with Maj. Gen. Frederick H. Osborn, dir ector of the Army's physical fitness program, and found him most re- captive and understanding"
 But then we found that White at the bottom of 1t all" Weiss ex- plained.
 We talked to him for a couple of hours but he can't understand He's never played football. He's as- suming an arbitrary attitude"
 Weiss declared that If soldier students are forbidden to participate in inter-college sport "there'll be mo- body left to rlay but these 4-F fel- lows with their lungs out"
 Natural Leaders
 Asserting that the ban would mean a serious blow to leadership" Weiss said that if you check the lists of linen who get anywhere in the world, you'll find that most of them have played college football"
 Weiss was quarterback and cap- tain of the Duquesne team in 1924. Dilweg, all-American end for Mar quette in 1922, won the all-time pror fessional title three years in a TOW as end for the Green Bay Packers 192e-31. Monroney was an Oklahoma University end 1921-24.

DePalma Drove 150 MPH 25 Years Ago; Now He Builds Planes Capable Of 400

that hope with him to the labora- tories today, laboratories much quieter and far removed from dirt tracks and the Indianapolis Speed way.
 Like all great athletes and sports men, though, DePalma likes to double back over memory lane, and remember his IA years of com- petition with the immortal Barney Oldf1eld, with whom he split even in victories, and his association with Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker when Rick was a gangling kid who sat high in the seat of roaring chariots.
 DePalma recalls his closest call, an event of the 1915 Indianapolis running, when he chased Dario Resta 425 miles.
 The drivers were fatigued and al most axle to axle when Festa's steering column broke and his ma chine skidded craZily in DePalma'S s path. Death was imminent but iron nerve and the Guardian Angel of racing drivers showed DePalma s car by the whirling Resta, enabled him to pick up a winning lap and the $36,000 for first place
 RACING GAVE FLYING LIFT
 DePalma travelled 159 mph as early as 1919 in Packard Special on Daytona Beach, but now concen- trates on sending younger men through the skies at 400 and better.
 The game might be doomed, but DePalma holds his sport up as the most honorable of all, one which has never been tainted. That might be due to the caliber of men like DePalma, who was never reprimand- ed on a track, and never entered a protest.
 It could easily be said that the sport has done more for progress of science than any other on the calendar.
 Better yet, the kid over the Ruhr or South Pacific might get an extra ounce of juice and an extra notch on the throttle because men like Ralph DePalma, Barney Oldfield and Eddie Rickenbacker put their lives on the line many times for a few bucks copy.
 That seems just a little more inn portant than any of the current wrangles between muscle -jerkers and team-sports packers.

TRIO OF BOXERS
 SHELEVD IN MASS.

Boston, May 27 - (UP) - The Massachusetts Boxing Commission today announced indefinite suspen- sions of trio of boxers-two of them in connection with an unsatisfac- tory bout at the Fall River Casino last Thursday.
 Those suspended were lightweight Johnny Almeida of Fall River, lightweight Irish Eddie Connolly (Thomas Colton) O. Charlestown and middleweight Joe Carter of Jamaica, L. I.
 Connolly was scheduled to box former amateur champion Francis Leonard of Taunton a week ago and was suspended for failing to appear. In his place Almeida was substi- tuted but the bout ended in the first round when Almeida was dis qualified by the judges and Referee Ed Mcdonald who felt he was not giving his best efforts. His purse was forfeited.
 Carters suspension was made at the request of the Connecticut State Athletic Commission for his failure to appear for bout in that state May 18.
