Crosby Joyvees Blank Cheshire

Crosby High Schools hard-hit- ting Junior Varsity Football squad opened it's season victoriously yes terday afternoon, by defeating the Cheshire Jayvees, IA to 0, at the Municipal Stadium before good turnout. Scoring once in the second and once in the fourth periods the Blue and White footballers held the visitors in check throughout the entire contest.
 Russ Hansen, Mark Margiotta, Johnny (Scat) Davis, and Don (Huba, Huba) Lorton excelled for the local grid combine. The run ming of Margiotta and Hansen and the passing and kicking expertness of Davis plus Lorton's brilliant work in the line gave the Blue and White a decisive edge.
 Both teams were held scoreless in the first period but early in the second period the Blue and White got rolling and could not be stopped until they had posted seven points in their favor. Again in the third period a stalemate existed between the two squads which was not broken until the final quarter when Davis uncorked 17-yard pass to Hansen for the final Ivy score. The summary

Michigan Hos Chance To
 Upset Army
By TOMMY DIVINE United Press Sports Writer

Chicago, Oct. 7-(UP)-Michigan, whose football tradition is bulwarked by one of the longest victory streaks in gridiron history, today sought the distinction of putting an end to the games lengthiest current winning mark-that of the mighty Army combination.
 Michigan faces the conquering Cadets Saturday at Ann Arbor and 8 capacity crowd of 85,000 fans will be on hand for one of the seasons outstanding games.
 Under the late Fielding H. (Hurry Up) Yost, Michigan rolled up the first great football streak of the current century when it was un- beaten in 57 games from 1901 until the final contest of the 1905 season. Two Point Game
 The University of Chicago, which long ago abandoned the sport, broke that great Michigan victory march by defeating the Wolverines to 0 in the final battle of the 1905 cam paign.
 Over that brilliant stretch when Michigan was sparked by the im- ortal Willie Heston, the Wolverines rolled up the amazing total of 2821 points while permitting the opposi- tion mere 40.
 Football has come a long ways since those times. Schedules and op- position are far tougher and the per- centage is all against long winning streaks when top foe must be faced Saturday after Saturday. Yet Army is eyeing it's third straight unbeaten season and has won q games in a row.
 Average 30
 Yost's Michigan teams of that by- gone era were footballs first point a-minute" combination. For the stretch of five seasons the Wolver- ines averaged 50 points per game.
 In rolling up it's great streak Army has rivalled the offensive record of those historic Michigan outfits. In it's q straight triunphs, Army has piled up 1918 points, for an average of 48 per game. The Cadets has been scored on II times during the streak, but the opposition points total only 1O9.
 Michigan was victim No, 12 in the Army list as the result of it's 28 to loss to the Cadets early last season at Baltimore.
 While Army this year has beaten Villanova 35 to 0, downed Oklahoma 21 to and toppled Cornell 46 to 21, Michigan has won from Indiana 21 to and edged Iowa IA tor.
 Upst Ahead? With Felix (Doc) Blanchard, Army's great All-American fullback, slated to return to action this week after sitting out the past two con- tests because of a leg injury, Army undoubtedly will enter the game as the favorite, but the makings of a great upset are here. Michigan has far more eXper- fenced and versatile team than the one which bowed to Army by a three | touchdown margin year ago. While without an individual to match the brilliance of Blanchard or Glenn Davis, Coach Frtiz Crisler has a fine array of backs led by Bob Chappuis, Paul White and Bob Wiese.

extra inning victory.
 But one thing was sure-the Cards had proved themselves worthy foes of the heavily favored Red Sox. That's why they were happy, without care in the world, as they travelled to Boston today. They had shown, as far as they were concerned. that they have what 1t takes.
 Perhaps the Red Sox in the first two games hadn't lived up to those 20 to pre-series odds, but Cronin wasn't worried about that. An even break away from home was good enough for him and now 1t was up to his boys to come through at home. He was sure they'd do 1t.

conservative advisers of President

Spearheaded by John Snyder, St.

conservatives held that price as

that it would result in an early

federation said that the acute short
age of box cars has been further
aggravated by delays in movement.
Runs that normally required four
or five days from the northwest to
Minneapolis-St. Paul, now take 80
days or more, officials said.
AS long as uncertainty exists over
extension Of federal price controls,
the federation declared. farmers will
keep substantial quantities of grain
off the market in the hope of higher
returns. Further. farmers may be
adverse to selling both their car
ryover and the ripened 1916 crop in
the same year unless tax laws are
revised or loans of actual grain

TIRES:
Good Prospects

With the manpower situation i'm
proving with the return Of many
veterans and new facilities sched-
uled to get into production soon, the
tire outlook for 1916 has grown
increasingly promising, though
stocks adequate to meet record de-
mand will not be forthcoming be-
fore late in the year.
With "a million cars in operation,
with many running on tires five IT
more years old. the government set
a goal of 66 million passenger cords
for 1916. Under present favorable
conditions, manufacturers hope to
even exceed the mark. Because of
the continued scarcity of natural
rubber, substantial proportions Of
both tires and tubes will be made Of
synthetics.
Since 80 per cent Of all tires pro-
duced 60 to the market and only 10
per cent are retained for new auto

congressional and 1913 presidential
elections.
In resigning from the cabinet aft
er Is years Of service as one OF the
liberal New Deal stalwarts. Hon
est Harold" as Ickes is sometimes
known, warned MI. Truman that po-
litical pressure for retention OF state
control over underwater oil re-
serves could result in a scandal
similar to Teapot Dome. He also
said that pressure to assess admin
istrative personnel for campaign
purposes might create a major
scandal.
Although it was long rumored that
1ckes might leave the Presidents
cabinet, his dramatic departure
grew out Of his charges that Pauley
had suggested to him that $500. 900
could be raised for the 1914 presi-
Dental race If the government
dropped a suit the interior secre-
tary instituted to place underwater
oil reserves under federal rather
than state control. When Pauley
denied the allegation and Mr..
Truman declared that Ickes' testi-
mony might be inaccurate, the "Old
Curmudgeon" stated that the Pres
ident's lack of confidence in him left
him no alternative but to submit
his resignation.
III feelings between Ickes and Mr..
Truman were further pointed up by
the Presidents order making the
resignation Immediately effective
rather than on March 81 as the in
terror secretary had requested so
that he might push through the
Anglo-American oil treaty (which
(he) had nurtured and raised by
bottle from the beginning"
While the liberal Ickes. long a
prominent figure in reform poll
tics. said he would not oppose the

out that he had cast his ballot as a

showed that the average person will
have about IL per cent less to eat

In reporting its findings, however,
the department pointed out that
striking of an average" balance
did not truly reflect conditions
abroad. what with near starvation
levels persisting in Italy. Germany.
French North Africa, France. Spain.
India and China.
Itemizing individual supplies. the
department said that the world sup
ply Of bread will remain tight. with
reduced rations in some countries.
Demand for wheat will exceed sup
plies by 200 million bushels and
stocks Of other grains will be linn
tied. From Is to 20 per cent less
rice will be available than in pre-
war years.
A shortage of meat will persist
in Europe and Russia, the depart
ment said. with increased produc.
ton retarded by use Of feed grains
for human consumption. While 1916
supplies Of fish will be higher than
last year, cheese and egg stocks will
not meet demands.
The total of fats and oils will ap-
proximate only two-thirds Of import
needs while sugar consumption will
fall to the lowest level in a decade.
Only hall as much butter will be
available for world trade as in pre-
war years.
In contrast to the tight world food
situation. the American larder will
stay we'll stocked, barring poor
crops. Only butter and sugar sup
plies are expected to show no ap-
preciable improvement. and while
fewer eggs are predicted, available
ity of more meat should cut de-
mand for the product.
