Indies Sharp For Sunday Clash With Redskins

Coach Angelo Laudisi's Indies win be shooting the works Sunday aft- ernoon when they oppose the Tor rington Redskins at 2:i5 in a bene- fit contest for the Waterbury Para plegic Fund, at the Municipal Sta- dium.
 The Indies went through e lengthy drill at Hamilton Park and are in top shape for the contest. The team brushed up on It's offen- sive and defensive alignments and is expected to conclude its drills at a short session tonight.
 The team practiced kicking field goals with Guard Butch Quintilani featuring the drill by booting is successive goals from the 25-yard line. He will undoubtedly see serv. ice Sunday if the Indies fail to gen. crate sufficient scoring punch for a touchdown from within reaching distance of the Torrington goal line.
 Confident
 The Redskins have been drilling hard for the past two weeks and are quite confident of taking the measure of the Indies Sunday. Sev- eral hundred tickets have been sold to Torrington fans who plan to make the trip to Waterbury and the Skins hope to reward them with a triumph.
 Duke DelPo, genial manager of the Indies, stated last night, that more than 1000 tickets have been sold for the worthy cause to date. More than 1000 tickets have been

Bowl Bids Flood West Point After Rose Bowl Snub

West Point, N. F., Nov. 22 = (UP) Army Military Academy ofilcials who have been saying for two days that they would have a statement within 4e hours regarding a post season football game, still were mysteriously unavailable today while the invitations piled up.
 Although the Cadets. unbeaten in 27 straight games over a three-yeai period, were turned down for the Rose Bowl-the bid they wanted most-they were being w0oed on all sides foe other appearances.
 The Los Angeles City Council voted unanimously to arrange a protest bowl" game between Army and Notre Dame to be played there in Memorial Coliseum a week be- fore the Rose Bowl game at Pasa- dena between teams from the Big Nine and the Pacific Coast confer ences. The game would be a re- match of the historic o to o tie be- tween the teams at New York ks Yankee Stadium.
 City Councilman Harold Harhy of Los Angeles said both West Point and Notre Dame officials had given a cordial" but apparently non committal response to the proposal
 But that wasn't the only chance for Army's Cadets to play in post season contest.
 The folks in Portland, Ore, want ed Army to come up there and play Oregon States battering Beavers in a Northwest Bowl" game on New Years Day for the benefit oi Shrine Hospitals for Crippled Chil- dren. That game, being boomed by a group of Portland businessmen would match Army with the strong est team in the Pacific northwest.
 In San Diego. the Junior Cham Der of Commerce, hopeful Of pro- noting the first "big time" foot ball game there in 6 quarter of a century, outlined plans for a "Har- bor Bowl" battle. then got busy and invited Army. Ross K. OLeno Southern California sports enthu- siast, said he had contacted Army and "six or seven midwestern and southern teams
 We have little hope of getting the great Army team to San Diego but miracles have happened before" OLeno said.
 Another plan, advanced by the unbeaten and united U.C.L.A. foot hall team would call for Army to meet the Pacific Coast Conference champion in Los Angeles in mid- December. The Western Conference team then would SO on and play its Rose Bowl game on New Years Day.
 Earlier in the week. Army report edly received bids to the Sugar Bowl game at New Orleans and the ] Orange Bowl game at Miami.

Tocklins Footballs Biggest Thrill; 0klohomo's Andros Dislikes to See BoIl Carrier FoIl Forword

Norman, Okla, Nov. 22-CNEAl-- The biggest thrill in football iS tackling. the sweetest sound the roar of the crowd, the commonest injury, split about the eyes. so says Plato Andres of oklahoma's hard-as-concrete line that held Army's Glen Davis to le net yards rushing, Texas Bobby Layne to ls and is close to national leadership in defense against rushing.
 "The most fun in football X tackling so hard 1t drives the ball. carried back" insists the 227-pouno guard. Its better than a touch. down. I dislike to see a ball-car- rier fall forward"
 Football is a game of laughs tt the wide-shouldered shot-puttinp Greek. The biggest guffaw of thI season for Plato came on the fina play of the Texas game wher Harold (Spot) Collins, Texas solit 2l0-pound guard and captain, in. tercepted a Sooner pass and com. ing up the field met In headlonr collision Joe Golding, Oklahoma l7i-pound back, who tackled Col. lins to the turf.
 Teaches Linemen Lesson
 ''They had to help Collins of. the field" chortles Andres, ''bul old Boney oolding got tip. dizzs proud. and grinning from ear to ear We kidded him because he stag gered himself Q little.
 "Tet that be a lesson to yol fat linemen,' Joe kidded back. 'neve try to run over Q back"
 Although this is Andres frs football at Oklahoma in five yesri since returning from fighting Ger man subs in the North Atlantic he gets a big honk out of the game of which he has such a swell perspective since he plays up front, the attrition spot in foot ball, where the action is rough and bloody and big. squatty for- wards thrill to the joyous shock of battle.
 "Tt's not a bit different now than in i94l," Andros says. "If you like to play football it's fun. If you don't it's work. Your age and the war don't have anything to do with it. If it wasn't fun I wouldn't be out there atthe age of 24."
 stln Q Rough Game
 It's still a rough game. too. When the Sooners were converting re- gently against a Big Six School, an opposition tackle slugged An- dros on the jaw. When Plato didn't fall the tackle apologized.
 That's all right podner," An- dros told him, that's the way to play that football"
 That hurt him lots more than if I'd cooked a Sunday punch on him and it didn't cost us near as many yards" Plato reasoned.
 At Oklahoma City central High, Andres got his eye split five times because when back comes through there's nothing to tackle but his shoulders, knees and feet. "
 The best tackle he has played against this year is Huck Heath of Kansas State, the best field Dallas Cotton Bowl, the worst Kansas turfless quagmire at Law renee.
 Iowa State has a nice bluegrass field but the grass is so long the players cleats get tangled up in 1t.
 "They oughta pay some of those Iowa State boys to mow it," drawls Plato Andres.

Farmers Urged To
Check Seed Stocks

Reminding farmers that all n.y.
brid seed corn is not certified,
A. D. Stuart, agronomist of the
North Carolina Crop Improve
ment Association, urged that seed
stocks be checked for certifica-
ton and termination before pur-
chase.
With the fast approach of the
corn planting season, Stuart said
that there have been repeated re-
ports of farmers buying seed of
extremely low termination test
just because it happened to be
a hybrid variety. In order to be
certified, any corn seed must
have a termination of 80 per
cent or more, Stuart declared.
Other requirements which must
be met before seed can be stamp
ed as certified include: source of
origin must be known, must be
adapted and of high yield and
quality.
Farmers have been enthusiast
tic to purchase hybrid varieties
of corn adapted to the various
sections of the state but avail
able supplies of certified seed
will plant only about eight per
cent of the total 1916 crop in
North Carolina. Greater quaint
ties of uncertified hybrids, of
course, are available, Stuart add
ed, and are being sold by deal
ers. at greatly reduced prices.
In this connection the agro-
nomist said: I'm corn, as in ev-
erything else, you will get only
what you pay for"
He said that corn with low
termination test, whether of n.y.
brid or local variety, is valueless
to the planter because spotty
stands will result and yields will
be negatively low. Stuart de-
clared that seed dealers general
ly are cooperating by telling
farmers that low-cost, uncertified
seed is not a good buy.

Ashe County Agent L. E. Tuck
willer: .........--,.
within month Pennington
had bought an outstanding Guern-
sey bull, and later, two high
grade Guernsey heifers. He Is
interested in buying more pure
bred Guernseys when the right
stock is found. Crop rotation has
been planned to include the home
production of all feed. All land
has been prepared for the spring
seeding of two acres of alfalfa,
an oat crop and considerable
acreage of adapted varieties of
both hybrid and field corn for
ensilage. The veterans success
seems inevitable"
Meanwhile, in nearby Hender-
son county, E. D. Mitchell of
Fletcher, and Frank Burgin Of
Mills River, have reported excel
lent results from the use of La
dina clover in two-year-ol per-
manent pastures. Two to three
pounds of the clover per acre is
used in regular pasture mixtures.
Some new pastures are being
seeded this spring with 20 pounds
of orchard grass and two and a
half pounds of Ladina to the
acre.
Oliver Childers of Route 2,
Connolly Springs, says that if
corn is laid by when it is hip
high, yields will be phenomenally
greater.
