Army-Novy Come ToN.Y. Or PhiIa?

New York, Nov. 13-(UP) Joe Williams, sports col umnist of the New York World Telegram and Scripps- Howard papers, said in an ex- elusive story today that the Treasury Department has formally petitioned the Navy Department to transfer the Army-Navy football game, Dec. 2, from Annapolis to New York or Philadelphia to help in selling war bonds.
 Williams said his source of the disclosure was a man as close to Henry Morgenthau, IT,, as paper to a wall. Will Hams quoted his source as saying, we have every hope the game will be shifted. We have reason to believe the Navy wants it shifted. At the moment, we don't know how the Army feels about it. And of course, any such decision must be arrived at mutually. "

 New York, Nov. 13.--(UP)-Mayor Bernard Samuel of Philadelphia says, i've are all set to accommo- date 10000 people in our Municipal Stadium If the Army Navy football game on Dec. 2 Is shifted from Annapolis to Philadelphia"
 Mayor Samuel adds, there's no transportation problem involved, be- cause we can fill the stadium with Philadelphians. Moreover, we are in position to make the game a smashing success in selling war bonds. or in raising funds for war relief or for the Red Gross"
 It's fortunate that Barney" Samuel and his Philadelphia CO., h0rts are prepared to handle the service classic on short notice, be- cause it seems virtually certain now that President Roosevelt m avowed i-isolationist-will make a swift transfer of the contest from the Isolation" of little Thompson Stadium at Annapolis to the huge concrete horseshoe where the color ful pigskin pageant has been staged six times previously.

 The Army and Navy teams, be- cause of recent magnificent tri- ulnphs, now stand out as gridiron titans. Their approaching collision shapes up as the No. sports con- test of 1924. Unquestionably, 1t is the 'peepul's cherce" that the vast potentialitieS of this classic be used to their utmost as a war-aid, instead of being wasted in the solitude of Annapolis, where only 11,0O0 wit messed the l942 contest.

Crosby Vs WiIby Grid Go Sunday
(NEA Telephoto)

Crosby Wilby football game, which usually draws 7,50O fans on Thanksgiving morning will be play ed next Sunday afternoon at Mu- nicipal Stadium, with the Blue and White a strong favorite to win iI1- asmuch as Wilby, which once gave up football this season, then re- sumed, has yet to win a game.
 Leavenworth and Hamden are the Turkey Day opponents this time, as it Techs turn to use the stadium on Thanksgiving Day; Thursday, November g, this year.
 At Naugatuck yesterday, Leaven- worth was a 38-0 shutout victim of Pete Foley,s Greyhounds; Jackie Stinson completing IA of 20 passes. On Saturday, Crosby was defeated 1877 by West Haven; while Wilby was blanked 60 at Shelton in close games.
 Some 1,20O to 1,500 fans saw the one-sided Tech-Garnet games at Recreation field Sunday, the win ners scoring in every period, Armo- nitis and Ratkywich scoring two touchdowns each of the half dozen sixpointers made; Kevit and Phil lips getting the others. Naugy did not show more than it had to, with the all-important Ansonia game in the offing.
 Thriller
 Co-Captain Paul Miller's run of more than TO yards for a touch- down from an intercepted lateral pass, against West Haven, was the thriller for local fans Saturday, put it was not enough; as the Fitzger- aldmen got two T. D. in the second quarter to gain an eventual 1S-1 victory.
 Komkovich ran from the Wilby 10 in the first period for the only score of the Wilby- Shelton game, III which Cavanaughs line play was outstanding in the Wilby defense.

Redwines Win,
 But Leofs Lead
(By United Press)

Beating the Detroit Red Wings away from their home rink is no Herculean feat-even the lowly New York Rangers can do it-but back in their own bailiwick they are one of the most invincible combinations in the National League.
 They proved their superiority at home again last night by snapping the six game winning streak of the Toronto Maple Leafs with a 4 to 2 victory. It was the first defeat of the season for the Leafs and it was not what they expected after the Red Wings came back from New York tagged with to 2 defeat by the Rangers.
 The Red Wings won it in the third period with two goals by Bill Quack- enbush and Ted Lindsay. They scored first in the first and second 1 periods with the Leafs squaring the account on each occasion. Jud Mo- Atee and Steve Wochy made the early Detroit goals while Mel Hill and Babe Pratt were the Toronto scorers.
 Bill Cowley salvaged to tie for the Boston Bruins in their game at New York with the Rangers, SCOT ing two goals in the third period within 30 seconds to square the count.
 Good GOalie
 The Montreal Canadiens won their fifth victory in seven starts, defeating the Chicago Blackhawks 4 to 2, with Goal Tender Bill Dur nan waving his club negatively at Chicago shots from every angle. Durnan's fine defensive work oyer- shadowed the coring performance of the Canadiens in which four dif- ferent players, Buddy OConner, Maurice Richard, Ray Getliffe, and Toe Blake made tallies. Harvey Fra ser and Clint Smith scored for chi cago.

ARMY-NAVY GRID. !. TEAMS SET FOR
 TITANIC TEST
BY CARL LUNDQUIST fTTnskata D-A-, SEoeR fSn-e,Sn.-,..,.,

United Press Staff CorfrespOndent)
 New York, Nov. 13.-UP)-The magnificent Army and Navy ioot- ball teams left no reasonable doubt today that the national gridiron championship will be decided when they play their secret" service game at Annapolis, Dec, 2.
 Unless something catastrophe be- falls them in their tests this week end when Navy plays Purdue and Army opposes Pennsylvania, the final battle played before the Mid shipmen and their neighbors of pie turesque Anne Arundel county may be one of the greatest college match es of all time. Certainly everything in the makeup of the teams indi- cates it will be nothing short of Ti- tanic.
 The burden of proof was all on Army when it faced a Notre Dame team that Navy had drubbed g to 13 and which had hexed the Cadets for 13 long years. It took cour- age along with superior might and manpower to erase the stigma which had denied them victory over the Irish since 1881, but they came thorugh-amazingly.
 Winning 59 to 0 for the most de- cisive victory ever scored against the Irish, the Cadets seldom sent the same back on touchdown mission.
 So diversified was the soldier att tack that their top back, All-Amer- ica bound Felix Blanchard, never had an opportunity to smash for a touchdown. Anyway he was too busy blocking and tackling for the rest of the boys.
 Up and Down
 Defensively, the Cadets threw up barrier whenever Notre Dame made bid. They hit so hard the Irish fumbled IS times, yet that deflated team was rated number one
