Irish Rule Challenged
Seriously for First
Time Since 1912
BY HAROLD CLAASSEN,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK. Oct. 24-For the
18th consecutive time over a two.
year period, the Notre Dame foot.
ball team rates as the country's
No. eleven in the Associated Press
poll, but this time the Irish margin
is mere 8 points.
Loss of a single first-place vote
and its 10 points would have dropped
Notre Dame into second place be-
hind Army in one of the tightest
ballot battles the 9-year-old poll
ever has produced.
Notre Dame, unbeaten this season,
garnered 40 first-place tickets and
GIT points. Army, likewise un-
scathed, was tops on 80 votes and
finished with 900 points. to be fol-
lowed by Randolph Field, .first on
%, and Ohio's States Civilians with
IA. The flyers collected 853 points
to 100 for the Buckeyes. The four
some had identical positions last
week.
Two Rate Bainbridge at Top.
Only cambridge Naval Station
was able to crash the big fours'
grasp on the first-place listings, get
ting 2 of the 109 cast, but winding
up in 18th place.
Not since Ohio State finished on
top in the final voting of 1912 has
the Notre Dame domination of the
country's football forces been chal-
lenged to such an extent.
The South Bend Ramblers were
first week ago with 60 designations
as the country's best, compared to
% for Randolph Field, IL for Army
and for Ohio State.
Since then, however, Notre Dame
spent torrid afternoon defeating
Wisconsin. % to l3, while Randolph
Field crushed Camp Polk, 81 to O.;
Army handled Coast Guard with
greater ease, rs to c. and Ohio State
knocked of the mature Great Lakes
outfit, 26 to 6.

Navy, II to Is; Iowa Preflight,
Tulsa, Pennsylvania, North Caro-
lima Preflight and Purdue complete
the first 10. Tulsa, bowl-minded for
the fourth straight year, and Penn
tied for seventh place with 269
points.

The Oklahomans and Purdue are
making their bows among the elite,
taking places held down last week

to Georgia Tech tumbled the Mid

WASHINGTON.-It was a sti- fling Sunday afternoon; the scene, the mirrored ballroom of the mil !. lion-dollar British embassy. A tow ering, bald-headed Englishman, Earl of Halifax, sat coatless in front of a crowd of perspiring Washington correspondents.
 Beside me here, I have. Sir Alexander Cadogan (pronounced Ca-DUG-an), announced the Brit ish ambassador, turning to an inn peccable little man at his right.
 This was the first official intro duction which Washington received i. to the permanent undersecretary of state for foreign affairs, not to mention the c. c. M. G. and K. c. B. appended to his title.
 Sir Alexander could very well have been identified as the man in the coat" standing apart from the shirt-sleeve brigade. Before long, however, this seemingly precise British diplomat had caught on to the American way to the extent that this fall he often hiked up and down fashionable Embassy Row, minus not only his coat but his tie.
 No Stranger to U. s.
 Sir Alexander came to Washing ton as head of the British deiega- tion to the postwar security con ference at historic Dumbarton Oaks. But, as Lord Halifax point ed out, Sir Alexan1 Ger, by repl,ta- tion was no stranger to the United States.
 For some time he has been men tioned as a likely successor to Anthony Eden as foreign secretary, and the press corps on that his toric Sunday afternoon was anX- ious to get first-hand appraisal of the man who some time might , hold Englands ranking diplomatic post
 ihNliS up to iiiS icputdlioh ioi imperturbability, Sir Alexander sat up like formal portrait under the stare of the obviously curious. Hardly a muscle moved in his long, angular face, and his cool gray eyes had distant look. A Dewey like mustache, above firm mouth line. accented his whole personal ity.
 When it came time for Sir Alex ander to speak, he showed himself well trained in the art of diplo- macy. In line with the secrecy which has continued to surround the Dumbarton Oaks conversations to this day, Sir Alexander took up
