Congress, and especially the

holding the big stick over the

largely having its own way.
There was a time when big bus
mess did this. Finally the Amer

wung the other way and it is
labor, and particularly the CLIO,

This will likely continue until

To the average person this
means VERY little but to the tax
conscious, the economists. and
the public officials the figures
are the source of much thought
and figuring. In fact, they affect
whole economy for the in
mediate future. For instance,
the banks have purchased so
many national securities repre-
senling the public debt that they
must play bail with the Treas
ufy's police. This means plenty
of money in circulation and low
interest rates-both for the
Danks' borrowers and the govern
mentor a rise in interest rates
might discourage private Dor
rowing and that in turn would
cause o slump in government
bonds. In other words. we now
have a cheap money whereas IN
1888, Tor instance, we had a dear
money market. There are many
deductions that could be drawn
from this. but the main signifi-
canoe Of it all is that il we are

Arkansas and |. 5. u,
Cotton Bowl Foes,
0id-Time Rivals
By the A.seeiaied prsss

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark, Dec. a.
The scene and the individuals may
be new when Arkansas and Louisi-
ana State tangle in the Cotton Bowl
New Year Day, but not the rivalry.
Although they have not met in
the last 10 years or ever before in a
bowl game, Arkansas and l.. S. U.
have squared of against each other
on the gridiron 81 times.
In fact, the Southwest Conference
co-champion Razorbacks have played
more games with the Bayou Tigers
than with any other opponent In
their pigskin history, which dates
back to 1894.
Discontinued After 1886.
For years the Arkansas-L. s. U.
rivalry, which began in 1901, was q
feature of the Louisiana State Fair
at Shreveport. The series was dis
continued after the 1886 season.
Over the years L. S. U. holds a
six game advantage over the Razor
backs. The Tigers have won 18
times to Arkansas 70. One game
in 1906-was 6-6 tie. On the other
hand, the Porkers hold an edge in
the all-time score, $50 points to 329.
Many of the 81 tilts were lopsided
affairs. Arkansas turned in the two
most impressive victories, 51-0, in
1910. and 40-6, in 1922. L. S. U.
slaughtered the Porkers, 35-4, in
1908.
Five of the battles were decided by
margins of an extra point or a field
goal. The Louisianans won 7-6 in
1912, 10-7 in 1913, 80 in 1920, and
10-7 in 1921. Arkansas shared a lo-7
decision in 1924.
BarnhiIl's Record Better.
Arkansas Coach John Barnhill's
personal record in competition with
the Tigers is better than that of his
Razorbacks. While Barnhill was
head coach at Tennessee the Vols
played L. S.<U. three times and won
each game.
Over the week end Barnhill an
nounced some changes in plans for
the Razorbacks' Cotton Bowl prep
arations He said the team, now
vacationing from football, would re-
sumo practice on a modified scale
December 8 and begin hard work
December 16. After the Porkers
spend Christmas Day at their
homes, they will meet Christmas
night to 60 to Texas to complete
pregame practice. Barnhill dis
closed he would take a squad of 40
to As men to Dallas.

Costliest throw in yesterdays Red
skim Green Bay game at Griffith
Stadium was the heave Frank Atkins
gave his helmet after being pulled
out of the game in the third period.
It sailed the length of the bench and
cost the fullback $50 fine.
No need to look at the Green Bay
roster to know Don Hutson has re-
tired when you can see it in the sta
tistics. The Pac.-ers picked up 10
yards passing and 500 running the
ball. It used to be the other way
around.
After seeing Santa Claus, accom-
panied by two midgets, arrive by
helicopter between the halves, no
body knows what to expect in the
future Redskin games. 1t was an
eye-popper for the youngsters who,
unfortunately, were in the minority.
Fritsch's poor kicking made more
than one fan wonder how the guy
got on top in the field-goal booting

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 2-That
Army outlasted Navy, 2l-l8, in the
1916 edition of the service football
classic was history today. but it
will be many years before sports
fans forget the titanic struggle and
its unmatched climax.
Gone from the collegiate gridiron
scene are nine of the mighty Army
footballers who swept through %
consecutive games without defeat
over q three-year span, team that
ranks among the greatest in football
history.
But save for a clock whose hands
moved faster than the Navy team,
that record might have been shat
tered and college footballs biggest
upset might have been staged.
They were still talking today about
the final hectic minute Of Satur.
days game in which Navy punched
to the Army 8, lost yards on Z
penalty, swept back to the 4, but
could not run another play as time
ran out. ~
Much Credit to Army Line. y
Hundreds of the 1o2 900 bowling
fans at Municipal Stadium ringed
the field for the final minutes. IT
was through that crowd that Bill
Earl raced in Navy Coach Tom
Hamilton's last-ditch effort to halt
the clock by means Of subStitu-
ton.
But Referee Tom Halloran did
not see Earl and that was the end.
OF course, much credit must 60
to the gallant Army linemen, but
with enough left to halt Navy's final
thrust.
And then there's Reaves Bay

like a page from tictiol. The Navy
quarterback, son of q Syracuse
coach, played like man possessed.
His choice of plays was matchless
and his passing far outshone that

that he graduated to the first team.
A virtual unknown, Baysinger was

heroic struggle. He repeatedly
tripped up Army defenders with his
play-calling.
With fourth down on Army's IL

formation. Baysinger lateraled
