ATLANTIC CITY, N. j.. Sept. T.
William G. Helis' s4,700 yearling
buy, Miss Kimo, won her fifth stake
of the year, the $4,000 6-furlong

from the maiden ranks in the sec
ond event and his. Miss Prompt
scored in the third.
The favored Miss Kimo paid
$500. The racing strip was sloppy
and Miss Kimo's time of 1:12 for 6
furlongs was considered very good.
The filly added s13,050 to her earn

LAFAYETTE, Ind, Sept. 21.-
Purdue's footballers were pushed all
the way today to defeat a savage
tackling Miami University team
from oxford, Ohio, 13 to 7.
1t was an expensive victory for
the Boilermakers with Righthah-
back Bob (Stormy) Pfohl carried
of the field with a broken bone in
his foot.
A crowd of $4,000 saw the light,
but rangy Miami line push the
heavy Boilermakers all over the
field in the first quarter. Fullback
Bill Johnston plunged for the Red
skins touchdown from one foot out.
Bob Demoss put Purdue back into
the game in the last two minutes
of the second quarter, passing 1S
yards to Left-end Bob Heck for the
tally.
With the Old Colds ground at
tack largely begged down against
the alert Ohioans, Demoss was the
major difference between the teams.

Another struggle is for the
American League batting cham
pionship, and this is where I
come in. For I'd like to 20 on
record as saying that Mickey
Vernon of the Senators has de-
veloped into one of the best
hitters in the league.
When the season opened, Ver-
non was not even a dark horse in
the batting championship race.
Personally, had felt that If I
was to be beaten out for the
title, it would be by either little
Johnny Pesky. our sparkplug
shortstop, or Joe Di Maggie of
the Yankees.
To me, Vernon has been the
big surprise of the season. A
lot of the ball players thought
that before the season was over
the pitchers would get Mickey's
number and his average would
nose dive. Well, Mickey did take
a dive. At one time he was up
around the 400 mark. Then he
dropped below $50.

1t looked then that the pitchers
had found Mickey's blind spot.
Well, If they did, they must have
forgotten 1t in hurry. During
the last month, Vernon has been
hitting better than $50. He
made a great comeback, which
is proof enough that he is a
good hitter.
The other day, Charley Keller
Of the Yankees remarked that
this has been a pitchers year.
I can heartily agree with him.
And with the pitchers going great

Balance Lacking, GU
Likely 10 Use Pros
|Two.Team System

Georgetown may lift a page of
strategy from the pros book and use
two complete elevens this season
The reason is obvious. The boys
who seem to have a scoring punch
have been found wanting defensively
and vice versa
Coach Jack Hagerty, for example,
sees red every time he takes a
gander at the fullback spot. It's
Red O'Connell on defense and Red
Murphy on offense. OConnen was
a sophomore on Georgetown's 1912
eleven, but failed to come up to the
promise shown during his high
school career at Brooklyn Manual
Since his return from the Army, Red
has sparkled on defense, although
he still hasn't hit his offensive stride.
He's 6 foot inch, scales 210 pounds
and likes to back up the line.
Murphy Fast in Attack.
Murphy, another Army vet who
stands S feet 10 and weighs 100, falls
in the opposite category. He hasn't
shown much defensively, but takes a
different slant on life with the cow
hide tucked under his arm. He's
tailor made for the streamlined T
formation Hagerty has Installed at
the Hilltop. He takes off like a jet
propelled fighter plane and hits
with the force of a sample cyclone
so the coach almost has to use him
despite his defensive shortcomings.
Hagerty, naturally, would prefes
to have better balanced squad. He
doesn't like the idea, for example, of
taking 5-yard penalties to sub whole
teams late in the game and he'd
rather let team play an entire
quarter before sending in relief. But
he's got to make the best he can of
bad situation, thankful it isn't
worse.
HOyas to Have Heavy Line.
Georgetown will have another
heavy line, averaging 200 pounds,
but Hagerty wants more speed, more
drive. George Benigni, an end, tips
the beam at 2O4 pounds. while Tao
kles Lou Robustell and Moose
Marchison come in at 220. Bus
Werder is a 208-pound guard and
his running mate, Elmer Oberto, is 2
pounds lighter. Ralph Benso, Joe
Golden and Archia Meas are hefty
enough for the pivot posts, but none
has shown the hustle Hagerty de-
mands.
The Hoyas have two weeks before
tangling with highly-touted Wake
Forest at Griffith Stadium and un-
doubtedly will smooth some of the
wrinkles out Of their play in that
time, but whether they can pick up
enough speed and punch to make a
successful stand against the Deacons
is big question.

DEVELOPMENT

Eight years ago medical
men declared that sulfa
drugs probably would prove
efficacious in the treat
ment of some types of pneu-
monia. Their prediction, long
since, has proved to be true.
Yesterday The Citizen
published a story about the
possibility of operating air
planes and automobiles
with atomic energy. We
believe it is safe to say that
scientific advance will be-
come a reality.
When you will drive an
automobile m o tore d by
atomic energy is wholly con-
jectural, for the man who
says within two or three
years or the one who guesses
in 10 years may be right.
But you may be confident
that the time will come
when the present automo-
bile will be outmoded, so far
as its propelling power is
concerned.
The world marches on,
always has marched on.
Changes occur day after
day, though we keep track
of only a few of them. Ten
years from now Americans
will have comforts and con-
veniences of life that we
would consider chimerical,
were they mentioned to US
now. The great DIR. Samuel
Johnson, commenting on a
balloon ascension in London,
said that man would never
learn to fly. His place was
on solid ground, and it was
futile for him to try to con-
ouer the air, an element
that belonged to birds.
And so it goes. We say
this or that is impossible.
The next generation looks
upon that ''impossibility"
as an ordinary convenience
of life. Development of mind
is limitless, and the great
er its development the
greater the marvels it ex-
presses in concrete form.
