The Croshy-wilhy game at the Municipal Stadium this Saturday afternoon should be one of the clos est fought contests Of the current season. Usually this tilt is played on ThanksRiving Day morning but the, Park Department hes made an arrangement whereby the three 10. cal high schools will alternate at the Watertown Avenue playing sur. face: Leavenworth has the use of the Stadium this Thanksgiving Day and will play Crosby in the Turkey Day classic.
 Both the Blue and White and the wildcAts have been undergo ng strenuous workouts this week at their respective practice fields at the Stadium and at the Coli Lots on Thomaston Avenue. Jimmy Lee. the Ivy mentor. has been stressing passing ofEense and defense in his practice sessions while the Wildcats, under the veteran eyes of George Mulligan, Jr., and Coach Tommy Purcell have been going through conditioning exercises be- sides working out and practic'ng up on. their offensive and defensive setups.
 TO date this season Crosby has won only two games in six starts by whipping Naugatuck and Abbey Prep of Simsbury and dropping games to Torr.ngton, Taft. Hartford Bulkeley and West Haven. Wtlby on the other hand has beaten Naugatuek, Gilbert, Commercial and LeaVenworth and has dropped con. tests to TorTington, Plainville and Middletown. The Wildcats must be ruled a slight favorite on the basis of their record to dtae this season but some local sport fans point out that Crosby had been wading through c much tougher schedule than the Purcellmen.
 Starters
 The Crosby backfield will show Bernie Lawlor and Nick Barone in the halfback slots, "Chick" McWn- Hams at fullhack and Johnny White at quarterback.
 The Ivy mentor will have Mark Margi0tta. fJohnny Kelley and Joe Macary in reserve for backfield duty while the regular Blue and White line is expected to see action in this all-important fracas.
 Coach Purcell will In all proba- bllity use Don Belanger, the Green and White Aerial artist. at quarter hack; Frankie Datelle and Jimmy Ahrens. Wilby's "0alloping Ghost, in the halfhack slots and either Jerry Becchia or Jake "Poosh Elm Up" Lawl0r in the fullback berth.
 An indication that there will be a very large turnout for th's crucial gridiron contest can be seen by the way in which the tickets were sold in the first day of the advance sale at Wilby yesterday. Crosby High Athletic Association offic als expect to start their ad- vance sale today and they are high ly confident that tickets will be at a minimum when the gates of the Stadium swing open Saturday afternoon.

Penn'sCocch NotAwed By AFmyTeom

New xork, Nov. ie--gUpD--ueore gReo, Munger, Che Pennsylvania football coach, had something be- slaea he nnnne in common with oeorge (Ieedl Munger, the cardln- al pitcher today--he ls going Co try lo win . biz game with Q single wing.

 The sa-year-old one-tlme "noy Wonder" os the Ivy League coachs ing fraternity has different ideas on how to win games than most of his brothers ln the profession. Like Munger, the flreball pitcher, he likes Go ''mow 'ein down..
 Oads.Nfakers Dlsdalnful
 Just how efficiently the Munger knowing machine" win operate against the Cadets s at the moment a matter of grave speculation and the odds-makers dlsdaln his chances to the extent that Army is lSM point favcrite.
 That Armys hiehlysgeared back field win score against Penn B . foregone conclusion and Munger makes no secret ofsthe feet that the touchdowns may come often. But he thinks that his Quakers, with Tony Csklppy) Minia, and Eddie tstrong Man) Allen, doing the heavy work. may score even more frequently.
 Together Mlnlsl and. Allen have scored i7 touchduwns this season which coincidentally or not is ex- actly the same number that have been tailed by Army's dashing duet of Glenn Davis and Felix Blanch- ard. Moreover, Minisi and Allen have tailed their touchdowns in six games while Blanchard and Davis played in eight to make theirs and of course both were shut out in the scoreless debacle against Notre Dame.
 Allen, the quaker fullback, was known as the strongest man in the Army during his employment by Uncle Sam, because of his ability in Q humber of physical strength tests. Just for fun he carries 2O0-pound team mates about the field on his broad shoulders snd when the rest of the boys are about to drop from the exhausting exercises he chins himself on the high bars . couple of dozen times CT SO.
 Speed And Strength
 AS c fullhack and runner Munger thinks he employs the crash of Blanchard and the dash of Davis in about equal proportion. He made three touchdowns against Columbia last week ct full speed.
 Pennsyivanias overall offense is the eighth best in the nation with an average Of 35e.2 yards c game. On rushing, the Quakers rank sixth with 2se.e yards a game. Army is 18th in overall offense with an av- craze of 3l0s yards Q game and 10th in rushing plays with 2s3.l yards gained in each game.
 Tn other games in the East this week Brown plays at Harvard Bucknell at Temple. Colgate ct syr- Acuse, Dartmouth at Cornell, Penn State ct Navy, Princeton at Yale, Rutgers at Lehigh, Tennessee at Boston College. and Fordham plays New York University ct Yankee Stadium.

Eegaslon, Ne. Nov. te - SuFl - Ravmena tn0ckyl Pond, whose un~ beaten Bates Colleee eleven colA- pslna a better record than any ot his seven former Yale teams said today he was content e ee a eie duck ia a alile pond"
 Back at the college after four years ln the Navy, Pond master minded Bates to its hrst All-wine ning season tn almost q hAlf ceA- tasg, and lls first Maine collegiate title since isse, Nov Bates ls coue siedrine a bid from the oiass bowl at Toledo. O.
 Re admits, of course, that ntile oraceloa Field with its 5000 seats ls a tar CIT from the Yale Bowl but his new loh has its advantages,
 stop ln 0wn Class
 One of them, he said, e that Bates says ln its own class playing teams saturday after Saturday that have comparable manpowef and athletic policies,
 Though Pond didn't come right out and say %, it was widely known that this situation did not prevail while he was head coach at his alma snaser. Yale with a small squad of Simon~pures tok on virtually all corners. While Clint Frank and Lar. " Kelley were In uniform, Pond made a respectable record, but when they were graduated he haa his troubles.
 Antoher advantage of coaching aa a sman college, Fond said with tongue-ln-check. Is that the alups nj body Is smaller"
 He should know, In 1887 when his Yale team won sia. tied one and lost one, Pond was the toast ot Loyal Blues from coast Co coast Later when the oulclassed Ellis were cuffed in seven of thelr eight games. the alumni wolves" started baytng for Ponds resignation. Then they accepted it with regret"
 Ducky himself has no regrets, however. about his job at Bates. Though the citiEens of Lewiston have yet to draft him as mayor, he  probably Is the next most important individual In the city. The eitizens were surprised when Dueky's Bob cats clawed Massachusetts State, Trinity, Tufts and Northeastern on successive Saturdays. And they went wild when Bates trimmed its three intrsstate rivals, Maine. Dowdoin and Colhy. to wind up a perfect sea. son.
 How did Pond do it. Hen tell you he simply stressed fundamentals. He taught his boys how to block and how to tackle, and they yielded only one touchdown Nin seven games. They weren't much on ofense, he comedies, but they always managed to outscOre their opponents.
 Small college football may not have the glamor of the big time. Pond said with a grin. but its cer. tainly . lot easier on your heart.
