The personal nature of this pro-
duction drive has fired the imag-
ination of employers and en-
ployees alike. Instead of figur-
ing this overtime in terms of ex-
ira hours and days, workers re-
gard the additional building
board, hinges and locks, or feet of
lumber as personal contributions
of badly-needed materials which
would not be produced otherwise.
Real results are expected from
this labor-inspired drive and the
slogan Hats off for the past
coats off for the future" is al
ready producing the goods.

A recent account from Trond-
helm, Norway, shows that not all
underground workers have made
the headlines nor have Norwegians
forgotten the wartime conduct of
questionable individuals. In 1912,
the electro-chemica firm Norsk
Hydro sent so of it's men on
three months trip to Germany to
study the latest technical develop
ments of the 1. G. Farbenindus-
trie.
Some months ago a member of
this group was accused by one
of his neighbors of questionable
conduct during the occupation.
based on this visit to Germany
and the matter was forwarded to
the Oslo Criminal Police for in
vestigation. Thorough as always
the police report awakened a mi
nor sensation at the Orkla County
commissioners meeting when it
was revealed that the so had been
specially chosen for espionage
work at the Farben plants and
that the accused had in reality
carried out important underground
work. The official report stated
that the experience gained by
these men at the German plant
will be of utmost value when Nor
way takes over certain Farben
holdings on Norwegian soil.

Cavaliers Fall

PHILADELPHIA. Get. 10. - (P)
The ponderous Pennsylvania
powerhouse, roofing a l 6 at a
point every : minute and-a-
quarter clip this season, chalked
up its third win of the year today
by clouting Virginia 40 to 0 with
practically no trouble at all.
A crowd of some "a, 900 sat and
sweltered in the huge Franklin
field Horseshoe and watched the
first, second and third string
Quakers cut up the scoring as Penn
made it 13-for-13 over the Cava-
liers in a football series that runs
back to 1880.
The Virginian, meantime, had
very little to write home about
during the afternoon, although a
26-yard pitch from Brown to Floyd
Tayloe that reached the Quaker
rs in the final chapter gave the
Cavaliers a few moments of pleas
ure in the last half. Mostly, through.
every time Virginia appeared about
to be dressed up and ready to go
somewhere, some Penn "Villain"
would step up and intercept a pass
to put the brake on. Six times,
during the proceedings, the Quakers
turned this trick, causing the Cava-
liers no end of embarrassment.
All told, the Quakers came up
with % first downs to five. gained
204 yards on the ground to sixty,
and sailed through the air for 2o1
against 81.
The Penn air game, as a matter
of fact, would have gladdened the
heart of an air force commander,
particularly when Tony Minisi, the
ex-Navy ball carrier from Newark,
N. j., and Bob Evans, recently
returned from the armed forces,
did the Tipping. Between them.
they completed 13 and II for 1873
yards, and their relief pitchers
made it a grand total of IL out of

Minisi. who was the leader Of
the Penn parade on the offense,
started the scoring by cutting in be-
tween left end and left tackle for
IL yards and a tally about a third
of the way through the first quar-
ter. after a poor Virginia kick set
it up.
In the second period DIV dolh

Again the Deacons came roaring
back, this time down to States IL,
with Groom and Nick Sacrinty al
%ternating, but Groom fumbled,
Harold Saunders recovered and
Wake Forest had lost its final
scoring chance.
The Deacons, gambling on a late
aerial attack, saw it boomerang
and bring State the clinching
touchdown when Fletcher inter-
copied Nick Sacrinty's toss on the
Wake Forest rs and ran it back
20 yards. Little Charlie Richkus,
although rushed hard, spotted
Bobby Courts in the end zone and
let one fly that Courts caught for
the touchdown. Byler's placement
was good.
The Baptist Deacons presented
a strong line and State didn't fare
too we'll in its ground attack net
ting only 80 yards, but Coach Bet
tie Feathers gang did all right in
the air, completing IL of their 20
passes for lat yards and-most
important - two touchdowns. The
Baptists' passing was well above
par, too, with 10 competitions cut
Ct % and good for 1877 yards.
Wake Forests first period extra
point try was blocked by Freddie
Miller, a substitute end, but John
O'Quinn, Wake Forest end, tried
to run the loose ball over and was
promptly thWarted by a swarm OF

The victory left young Coach
Beattie Feathers and his charges
in the best position they've occu-
pied in years toward winning the
conference championship. w h
Duke and Wake Forest, as well as
Clemson and Davidson, safely sub
dued, State has only Virginia Tech,

4S-l4 VERDICT
OVER COLUMBIA
Reserves Big
Factor In
Win

WEST POINT, N. Y, Oct. 19-P,
-Army's reserves, labelled the
weakest part of another great Ca
Diet football team, got the workout
they needed todaJ in a smashing
48 to IA victory over Columbia, but
they only made Glenn Davis and
Doc Blanchard look better than
ever.
1t was Blanchard and Davis, de-
prived for the most part Of the
help of quarterback Arnold Tucker,
who really accomplished the rout
of the previously unbeaten Colum-
bia team, and gave Army its 23rd
consecutive victory
Blanchard bulled through the line
in his old-time style and ran the
ends for four touchdowns, topping
off his performance with a 93-yard
gallop into scoring territory with a
Columbia kickoff. Davis scored on
ly once-on a 66-yard run around
end in the second quarter-but he
set up another score by running
2e yards when he received a bad
pass from center on an attempt to
punt and he ran SIS yards with the
second = half kickoff before being
forced out of bounds. In between
times he made lesser gains, tossed
a few passes and did the kicking.
Army's other two scores came
on passes, n from Bill G%ustafson
10 Hank Foldbers. the other from
Arnold Galiffa to Jim Rawers.
Jack Ray converted six out of sew
en- tries for extra points.
Gustafson, who quarterbacked
the first-string backfield except FOR
a few plays early in the game
when the injured Tucker came in
to get the Cadets moving out of
difficulties, did a fine job.
Before the game ended Army
Coach Earl Blaik virtually cleaned
his bench fo subs and two of them,
Galiffa and John Shelley, engineer
ed the final touchdown. Galiffa's
payoef pitch to Rawers was good
for So yards.

III BACK WAKE FOREST, II TO 6
Two Spectacular enals Net
7ouchdowns For WoLpack As
Deacs Bow Before n, 900 Fans

WAKE FOREST, Oct. 19.-P)-
Two spectacular passes were the
scoring punches today as unbeaten
North Carolina State came from
behind to trip previously unde-
feated Wake Forest IA to 6 in a
Southern conference gridiron tussle
before "a, 1000 fans.
The triumph continued the State
Wolfpack, with four loop victories,
at the top of the conference
parade. Last-half fumbles spoiled
a pair of fine Wake Forest tally
ing opportunities as the Deacons
drove hard for a victory.
Wake Forest, with earlier wins
over Boston college, Georgetown
and Clemson, outgained the Wolf
pack in rushing, 107 yards to 80,
as both made a dozen first downs
but States accurate passing paid
off.
The Deacons, slight pre-game
%favorites, moved quickly for a
score. The first-period touchdown
came after a 5-yard advance,
featured by a 22-yard pass from
Bo Sacrinty to Burnie Caps and a
shorter toss from Bo's brother,
Nick, to Caps on States seven.
Nick, racing around end, was
bumped out of bounds IN the one
and Dick (Rock) Brinkley plung-
ed over on the next play. Bo
S%acrinty's placement was blocked.
State bounced back to take the
lead after an even longer drive, a
74-yard movement with Howard
Turner's passes to George Blom-
quist and reserve end Paul Gibson
accounting for most OF the yard
age. The advance had carried to
the Deacons' II as the first quarter
ended and, on the first play of the
second period, the wolfpach scored.
Gwyn Fletcher, a sophmore tail
back, drifted back to pass. He APP
peared trapped by a host of On
rushing Deacons but he got off a
leaping jack-in-the-box r unnlng
pass and Gibson grabbed the ball
in the end zone with a jumping
catch. Jim (Pat) Byler's place
ment split the uprights and the
Wolfpack had a rs lead.
The Deacons' attack caught fire
in the third period as they clearly
outplayed State but long drives
were halted by fumbles. With
Brinkley and Nick Sacrinty rip
ping off gains through the tackles,
of Wake Forest drove to States
nine but here Brinkley dropped
the ball and Al Phillips recovered
for State.
