 BEGGING PECLER: Our read CTS will be happy to know that the eX-spOrts writer and pseudo economist, Westbrook Pegler, isn't hanging up any new circulation records since he went to work for Willie Hearst. Pegler, who is now in his element covering Buster Dewey's journey, lost the most inn pOrtant papers in the Scripps-HOw- ard chain and filled the hole with Hearst's II rags.
 A little more heat from workers would cause the editors to drop Pegler for good. It was heat that caused Roy Howard not to renew Pegs contract and sent him pack ing to the Hearst menage. An anti Pegler campaign now, with letters from workers and unions, might be smart topic under "goOd and welfare'' at the next meeting.

 New York, Oct. i6.-(UP)-Big. gest mystery of the current toov. ball campaign Is: What has hap. pened to Navy?
 In preseason estimates, the Mids dies of Annapolic shaped up aS one of the most powerful elevens ever to wear the blue and gold. Prog. nosticators unanimously picked them to repeat for the Lambert trophy, embiematie of eastern supremacy. Many enthusiasts even reached for the laurel crown of national chAnI- pionShip.
 It seemed that nothing-probably not even Notre Dame--eouid sttp thlS dreadnaught which Cmdr. Os- car "SWed0" Hagberg took over when Cmdr. John "Billick" Who's ehel shifted to sea duty. It wag . veteran outfit which included mos Of the regulars which had scene 1 to have everything-and in depth. Other coaches gaSed with green eyes ct the galaxy of talent or the Severn.
 However, this highly -toutcd Navy team was beaten in itS opening game, 2i.i4, by North Carolina Pre- Flight. Whereupon the stunned experts choruSed, "goShl Those Carolina CloudbusteFB must have the most powerful service team ln the country" Which apparently was an over.Statement; because it came to pass that only last satur- day N. 0. Pre-F'light was held to C i3.i3 deadlock by Virginia, whieli already had sueeumbed to North Carolina State, which had sue- cumbed to Clemson, which had been beaten by Georgia Tech, bi-0. Incidentally, Navy engages Georgia Tech at Atlanta Saturday.
 Navy did betetr in It's second game, beating Penn State b6.i4--a creditable performance, though by no means startling. Penn State hab mediocre team this year, as wlf. ness It's 26-0 defeat by wobby Cov- nell Of it's eye-lash victory eVet weak Franklin and Marshall.
 In the third Navy encounter, laSt Saturday at Baltimore, the MiddieB were forced to the limit to eke out e 70 victory over Duke. Duke had come into this contest unbeaten; 4: Duke had team that was q me tional thfeat-NaVy's diffieultiei with Blue Devils might have been understood, But Duke already had been humbled by Pennsylvania and by the same North Carolina Cloud. busters that upset Navy.
 Actually, the Middies were luckY to emerge from the Duke ganie without Q defeat or c deadlock, theif play was 50 ragged. They fufnbled six times, losing the ball to Duke on three Of those occasions. Their running attack lacked certitude aud explosivoness. They completed one pass. Duke dominated play in thV last half and drove deep into Navy territory three times.
 BeWiidered observers biinked the' eyes and asked, "Is this the same Navy team that was picked to bid i1enacingly for the national title2 Yes-lt's the same outfit; but soiflC- thing apparently has happened to it Just what has happened to Navy it the biggest mystery of current football.
