that he did bangup job.
The Georgia Tech-Navy Game.
The only consolation l got from
being forced to stay at home, was
the opportunity to listen to Bill
Slater's description of the Georgia
Tech-Navy game, a game that will
be talked about by college football
fans when all other games are for
gotten.
AS l listened to Bill's highly col
orful broadcast, 1 wondered if per-
haps he wasn't eXaggerating a bit,
but Bills raves were nothing COM
pared to Grantland Rice's account,
and Rice has seen so many games
that it really takes something away
out of the ordinary to get him ex-
cited.
The game started off with a bang
when Navy ran the kickoff back for
a touchdown, but that was just like
a movie trailer-just taste of what
was to come
Every minute of the game was
packed with thrills, but to me there
were three incidents that stood out
above all the rest.
The first came at the end of the
half, when the whistle blew, ending
the second quarter, with Navy in
possession OF the ball and only
inches away from a touchdown.
What I will never be able to under
stand was why Navy, knowing that
there was less than ten seconds to
play, did not call for a time out.
That would have stopped the clock
and then, when play was resumed,
they would have had time to run
one more play before the half. In
stead of that they let the time run
out while they were still in the mud
die.
The second incident was one that
invoked a seldom heard of football
rule Willy Bill Alexander sent in
some Georgia Tech substitutes and
when play was resumed, the Yellow
Jackets, on first down, tossed a pass
that a sleeper, away over near the
sidelines, caught with ease, with no
one even near him. However the
whistle blew Immediately and not
only was the completed forward
pass nullifed. but Tech was pen
allied.
What happened, of course, was
that the Tech captain had sent one
of his pass receivers over toward the
sideline at exactly the same time
that the men, relieved by Substi-
tutes, were leaving the game and
Navy, thinking that the
pass receiver was leaving the
game also, paid no attention to him.
But the officials saw it and promptly
invoked the rule which says; ''The
sleeper play must not be attempted
on the first down after subStitutions
are made"
The third. and by far the out
standing incident of the game, was
Techs amazing goal line stand in
the last couple of minutes of the
game Outweighed and outnum-
bered in reserves. that 1914 edition
of the Rambling Wreck From
Georgia Tech" stood like stone
wall and defied the lads from An
napolis to cross that four inches of
turf that was all that stood between
the Navy and the touchdown that
would have meant the ball game.
The Navy coach sent in rested up
substitutes for the final smash at the
line, but the Yellow Jackets didn't
bulge even an inch and a minute
later they walked off the field,
winners by a score of II TO Is. of
one of the most spectacular games

What Are We
Waiting For?

THE Fifth War Bond drive ends Saturday.
l. That means the people of Michigan have only
three days, including today, to attain their $685.,
100000 quota of E bond purchases.
Last night the quota was $SS 900 short,
less than half subscribed.
The people of Michigan never yet have fallen
down on War Bond quota.
Frequently they get off to sluggish start
but they come along fast on the home stretch and
finish triumphantly
WE HOPE they will repeat this time.
w If they mean to, they had better start i'm
mediately; not tomorrow or the next day but
RIGHT NOW.
There is nothing to stop them except OUT
RIGHT INDIFFERENCE TO OUR WAR
EFFORT
According to Frank N. Isbey, chairman of
the Michigan War Finance Committee, the people
of Michigan have about ONE BILLION DOL
LARS deposited in savings accounts in banks
throughout the state.
They have, he says about $400,000,000 in
checking accounts and about $500 900 900 in safety
deposit boxes or otherwise out of circulation.
IT'S too late to expound the virtues of War
Bonds. IF WE DON'T NOW KNOW ALL
THAT'S NECESSARY, WE NEVER WILL.
We wish merely to remind readers that the
recent Normandy invasion was successful ONLY
BECAUSE ALL OUR PREVIOUS WAR LOAN

81 PeriIed

BELLAIRE, O., July 6 (UP)-
Mine officials today gave up as
dead GA miners trapped five miles
inside the burning Powhatant cosl
mine, and began sealing the mine
shafts.
Hope for the men was aban-
doned when the fire, at one of the
four entrances which had been
extinguished, broke out again and
forced weary rescue crews to re-
turn to the surface.
Mine officials said II was nee
esSary to seal the mine entrances
to put out the fire which began
at 1890 p. m. yesterday, before
it destroyed the entire mine.
LAST HOPE ABANDONED
Roy Fox. supervisor of the Pow
hatan Coal Mining Co.. owner Of
the mine, largest in Ohio. said:
Tn my opinion the men are
dead. How they died we do not
know. Their supply of oxygen
may have run out, or they may
have been trapped by the spread
ing fire."
Fox said that If the entrances
were not sealed now, it would be
a week or perhaps longer before
the mine could be entered.
The number of presumed dead
was established by counting the
missing head lamps, Fox said.
RESCUERs FORCED OUT
Earlier, the doomed men had
answered the tappings of rescue
workers on a water pipe running
through the mine. and some hope
was held then for their rescue.
But the rescue crews, including
some of the 80 men who were in
the mine when the fire broke out
and made their way to safety,
could do nothing after the one fire
which had been extinguiShed flared
anew.

Sale of Beer and Liquor

Titus emphatically demanded
a fee for the use of the sterling
State Park near Monroe and the
Warren Dunes State Park near
Benton Harbor by residents of
other states, declaring they were
patronized almost exclusively
by non-rcSidents at Michigan
expense.
Michigan" Titus said, "is
giving the people of Chicago,
Gary and Whiting what the
Cook County forest preserve
cannot provide-one Of the fin
est bathing beaches in exist
ence."
Both Whitley and Richards
fought a nonresident fee, argu-
ing it would discriminate
against tourists whom the State
seeks TO attract.
Hoffmaster said he would
submit a proposed bill 10 the
Commission next month, asking
the legislature for discretionary
power TO charge fees in certain
cases. He said fees for parking
or other facilities were more
likely than admission fees in
most cases.
