 Ashe, arriving at the hospital to take home his wife and 1O-day-old son, had found note on the night stand in her room, asking plain lively why the baby couldn't have been cute, like you" Baby Perfect He expressed amazemer1t at his wife's action, adding that the baby was perfect" in every way.
 The young mother got as far as Burlington and changed her mind. From the Union Station she tele- phoned her frantic husband, beg ging him to please come and get me, honey"
 Ashe called Burlington police, asked them to hold his wife for safe-keeping, then chartered a plane. A few hours later he burst into the police station.
 Mrs. Ashe was there, waiting.
 "Oh, darling" she sobbed. I'm so mixed up. I don't know why l did 1t. Take me home"
 She said she had planned to visit her sister, Mary Ann Dyke, nurse at Mare Island, Cal, "but couldn't run away from you" Ashe took his young bride in his arms.
 She's all right now" he mur- mured. Tt was amnesia or some thing. She didn't know what she was doing" "e .-@ Ashe, a Navy veteran, first learn ed if his wife's disappearance from hospital attendants. She left behind 8 six-page note addressed to "the most adorable and precious husband in the world and to the sweetest and kindest and most understanding mother in the world"
 My heart Is just aching and throbbing with pain and tears and unhappiness," the note read. T could have been 50 terrificially happy and I would have been if God had blessed me with sweet and pretty little boy.
 But darling, I guess just didn't deserve to be made happy. I failed you 50 terribly, my darling. I'm not even worthy of you.
 Sight Startled Her
 T don't even deserve to be alive on this earth, leaving poor little boy-out little boy-but, honey, if he could only have looked like you, darling, I would have been the happiest, proudest mother in all the world.
 T couldn't bear to think of talk ing him home and showing him to everyone. I think it would have eaten my heart completely away.

Moritiners Need Ship ps

Boston, May 23-(UP)-The Q. &. Merchant Marine is suffering from critical shortage of suitable ves- sels needed to stimulate world trade, Mai Gen. Clarence H. Kells said today.
 In speech for a maritime day luncheon, Kells said that the U. s. Merchant Marine consists largely of Libertys, Victorys and transports. Of these, he added only the Vic- torys are suited for post war com merce, since the Libertys are old and the transports are not adapt able for passenger use. -.
 Ire shOrtage of special service craft is especially acute, he said. The fleet needs refrigerated ships, specialized tankers, grain vessels, colliers, lumber ships, sea trains, vehicle carriers, special coastal ships and passenger ships.
 Until these can be built and their trade developed, the Victorys and the few newer cargo ships and the aging, war-weary passengers ships must go to world ports to compete for the commerce of the seas" He said. Thus we see that despite our great fleet of war-built vessels we are not in as good 8 posi- ton as many believe"

NEW YORK, Nov. Army and
Notre Dame have come this far
without a blot on their 1916 football
records and this forecaster sees an
other victory for each club tomor-
row, the last tests before they tangle
in New York Yankee Stadium on
November 9.
Army should have little difficulty
with West Virginia, in what will be
the final home appearance in grid
suits for a dozen of the Cadet
staIwarts. Although West Virginia
nipped Syracuse last week 1t bowed
to Pittsburgh, 80 to 7, earlier in the
season.
Notre Dame. reported ready to
unveil scatback at Navys expense,
should have just enough trouble
with the defensive-m minded Midship-
men to smooth out any wrinkles.
Despite Navy's losses in all major
games this year, Baltimore's huge
stadium is sold out for the game.
Other selections:
Penn over Princeton-The varied
defenses Princeton showed in its
loss to Cornell last week will have
little effect on the Quaker backs.
Skip Minisi to collect another bliz-
zard of points. Pennsylvania.
Oregon State over Stanford-Off
their scores with U. c. L. A., Stanford
should win. Of their scores with
Southern California, Oregon State
should triumph. The pick is the
home team, Oregon State.
Georgia Over Bama.
Georgia over Alabama-A battle
of top-f1ight backs. Gilmer of Ala
bama VS.. Trippi of Georgia. In the
belief that Trippi will get the more
assistance, Georgia is the choice.
Columbia over Cornel-Not more
than seven points should separate
these two ancient Ivy League rivals,
but the choice is with Columbia
even though Roy Cestary, Colum-
bias ace punter, is out with a
broken arm.
Northwestern over Ohio State

Vets Told 10 Quit Grid
Or Give Up Disability
Benefits From VA
BY the Assoeiofsd Press

FORT WORTH, Tex, Nov. L.
The question Of whether veterans
drawing partial disability pensions
may be permitted to play football
has come up.
Three Texas Christian University
squad membership Lucas, Jesse
Mason and Beekman Ezell-were
called up for physical examinations
yesterday and M. r. Kline, head OF
the Veterans Administration here,
said instructions received recently
were to enforce the regulations more
closely.
Men drawing such pensions can
not play football If in the mind of
the administration doctor participa-
ton subjects them to additional
injury and even DEATH" Kline said.
"If they are further disabled or
killed the Government is liable for
additional benefits. The decision is
up to the doctors. If they rule
against a mans participation in
football, he must either give up the
game or his benefits, s
Lucas, Mason and Egell ," all regu-
lars on the T. C. U. team, may be
ordered to give up football or their
pensions when given further exarni-
nations today.
The University Of Texas has a
player in this category-Jim Canady
starting wingback and the Southwest
Conferences leading pass-receiver
He suffered a back injury while in
military service.
Southern Methodist and Texas
A. and M. reported no war-disabled
veterans on their squads. However
one man at A. and M. reportedly
was told his pension would be
stopped If he went out for football
or basket ball but could play base
ball-so he is playing baseball only
The Veterans Administration at
College Station, where A. and M
is located, said it had no directive
saying disabled veterans can not play
football but it added it would dis
courage any veteran playing who
might have an ailment where more
serious disability might occur.
In Washington, an official of the
Veterans Administration said he
doubts whether the VA can tell any
veteran not to play football.
1--WE may order him in for a re-
examination" he told a reporter
"but I don't believe the VA has any
power to tell him what he can and
can not do.
Certainly we can't order his
pension taken away"
He said that If the injury were
aggravated, the veteran might not
be entitled to additional benefits.
But even this is difficult to prove,
he said. who can say whether a
knee is getting worse because a man
is playing football? It may look
that way, but maybe it would get
worse even If he never say a football
game"

Meade Loses Appeal
To Return to Saddle
By the Askocioted Press

NEW YORK. Nov. Veteran
Jockey Don Meade, grounded for
more than a year, lost his appeal to
return to the saddle today when a
joint board of the New York State
Racing Commission and the Jockey
Club decided against granting him
q license to ride.
Meade, center of numerous turf
squabbles during his riding career,
was set down in Mexico after being
charged with "croEding" in a race
and his case was referred to the
Jockey Club which revoked his
license. The action means that
Meade will not be permitted to ride
in the United States and Mexico.
