lone, the Penn State kicker. AL
though the day was made for
blocked kicks, Colone didn't miss
and posted a 39-yard average.
Middle Tie Score.
Navy's big moment came early in
the second period A 53-yard quick
kick by Henry Arnold had helped
the Middies out of a hole and they
regained the ball on the State 49,
Bob Horne lobbed a short pass to
Alvin McCully, who had found a
dry and lonesome spot on the field
and he had too much of a start to
be caught as he went for a touch
down. The Middies called on Jimmy
Wills to tie the score and he COM
piled with his 18th placement in
that many attempts.
The Middies made the first and
last offensive outbursts. In their
second time with the ball the Oft
beaten Midshipmen advanced to the
Lions % with a 24-yard pass play
from Horne to Art Markell and q
19-yard sweep by MeCully the big
gains, but Steve Supey & Co. of the
Lions smeared Reaves Baysinger for
an 8-yard loss at this point. Late
in dull fourth period Horne, a
slick ball handler, steered an ad-
vance to the State IL before it was
stopped. Horne's surprise pass to
Pistol Pete Williams, making his
first appearance since the Duke
game, was the key play.
Penn States Negro halfback, WAL
lace Triplett, and Francis Rogel
hammered at Navy through the
middle to creep to the Navy 7 in
the third quarter before Dick Scott
and the Navy line stopped them.
Scott also took a hand in the Of
fense, making two first downs from
kick formation and handled the
punting with Arnold and Baysinger.
Penn State ran it's point total to
290, second in the country, with a
game to go. Navy also has one left
against Army.

Kon-Tiki Raft Group
Moves 10 Native Town

NEW YORK, Aug. 10 (NANA) D.
The Kon-Tiki raft expedition, still
experiencing difficulty in radio COM
munication, yesterday sent a short
message reporting that they have
been found by natives and have
moved to a small village across
Raroia lagoon. The men crashed
into Raroia reef on August Z and,
since then, had been living on one
of the small uninhabited islands
that surround the lagoon.
The complete message follows:
Our expedition has been found
by Polynesian natives, who have
moved us 6 miles in their canoes
across the lagoon. We are now on
an island containing 100 natives
who have given us a tremendous
reception and show great hospitality
"A high tide and strong seas have
washed the, raft over the reef and
into the lagoon. We have spliced
the mast and plan to sail the raft
here to the native village.
