American and Notre Dame gal
loped to added strength in today's
compilation of the Associated
Press weekly poll to determine
the country's top collegiate foot
ball team while Navy and Ohio
State skidded to lower berths.
The Cadets, who have reigned
since November last year with
out INTERRUPTION, grabbed 101 of the
liz first place votes and were not
placed lower than third on any
ticket.
Notre Dame, which defeated
Pittsburg Saturday by a 80 to
margin after rugged first
quarter, moved into second place
ahead of Navy, which numbered
to a 20 to 6 conquest of Georgia
Tech.
Biggest change in the standings,
however, was brought about by
Purdue's IS to 10 victory over
Ohio State, last years big ter
champion. The boiler makers
bounded from ninth to fourth
ranking while the Buckeyes drop
ped from fourth to twelfth.
Minnesota, Alabama, Pennsyl-
vania, Indiana, Texas and St
Mary's of California completed
! the first ten in that order.
The Gophers, who displayed ar
inclination to aerial football il
mastering Northwestern Saturday
in a 80 to 7 fray. had the unique
distinction of being the only team
among the 26 named by the coun

MIAMI, FLA, Oct. 22-W.D-With
emergence of the 1945 football sea-
son from the sembryonic stage to
full maturity, Orange bowl dope
sters looked to the east today as
the likely area from which team

of the six southern elevens in the

begins New Years eve with a gi-

minus the parade and other fes-
Invites.
Three eastern teams - all with
brilliant records-are the ones to
watch when the bids 60 out. The
roaring Lions of Columbia, unde-
feated so far this year, probably
have a double "a" priority. But
they may get more lucrative Of
fer from the Rose bowl or the
Sugar bowl in Pasadena and New
Orleans respectively.
/ Powerful Holy Cross, also unde.
feated, stands high on the list, and
the third eastern team is Penn
State, which has bowed only te
Navy, a team in a class by itself
The southern team probably will
be Georgia, with its Charlie
Trips; Alabama with its Harry
Gilmer; Tennessee, Mississippi
State, Louisiana State or Duke
The 'Bama Crimson Tide, however
is another team which has an ex
cellent chance OF a better bow
bid.
Despite Georgia's ignominiou:
defeat at the hands OF LSU, il
could redeem itself when it meet.
Alabama next week and if such
is the case Trippi and company
cannot be overlooked.
Other possibilities, although
somewhat remote, are St. Mary's
on the west coast; Oklahoma A
& M. and Tulsa, in the southwest
and Colorado, in the Rocky Noun
tain sector
The Orange Bowl stadium ha!
been sold out since last February
Last week construction OF an add

Washington Coach
Lauds Frank Atkins

WASHINGTON, Oct. o. R =
Lantern-jawed Dudley Degroot is
the overlooked man of the Wash
ington Redskins. He's head coach
but rarely edges into public print.
He was asked today what he
thinks about his team, now that
it is tied for first place in the east

ball League.
What this old Stanford man had
to say was plenty-but it wasn't
about the magic of the '"T'' form
alton or his teams greatness-he
had Frank Atkins, backfield find

Atkins played the ball game of
his young life in Washington "a.

potent Philadelphia Eagles, pre-
season championship favorites.

was Akins," Degrott said. There
was a kid who ripped the Eagles

was at deaths door from a double
mastoid operation.
"He wears a specially-built he'll

common to the needs Of any new
boom business. Technical i'm
provements have slowed up as
sembly lines. The industry is
concentrated largely in the Chi
cago area, where the fnanpower
situation has not been of the
best. Many women have been
employed, pay scales are COM
paratively low and new workers
haven't been attracted.
So good is the war news that
the old patriotic appeals to do
something about all these tight
situations fall on deaf ears.
Speed-up production teams of en-
gineers, personnel and labor re-
lations men are frequently stym-
ied--as in the San Francisco ma
chine shops where labor refused
to work overtime, or in the Ak
ron tire factories, where labor
has refused to move faster.
Wage rates can't be raised for
fear of topping the whole wage
sterilization structure. Blaming
generals or production officials
for lack of foresight on some Of
the planning does no good at this
stage of the game.
