Mr.. Ludwig was edcated at Bres-

awarded the degree Of Doctor OF
Letters by Rutgers University.
He was a war correspondent for
the Berlin Tageblatt during World
War I and interviewed Talaat Bey

try into the war.
Mr.. Ludwig was known widely IN
the United States through popular
reading of his biographies and such
works at "The Nile" He also went
on American lecture tours.
In 1914 he shocked a Los Angeles
audience by declaring I'VE find
that music and the arts are moi
necessarily characteristic OF democ-
racy-in fact, the greatest music
that has ever been composed was
done SO under tyrants."
He mentioned Beethoven, Bach
Brahms, Liszt, Franck, Tchaikovskl

"I have met and interviewed
three dictators (Mussolini, Kema
Ataturk and Stalin), and I hav'

Arthur DevIin, Star of Giants
And Georgetown IT, Dies at 90
Played Third Base
For McGrow 8 Years;
Graduate of Centrul

Arthur Devlin, SO, famous third
baseman for the New York Giants
from 1904 to 1911. and one OF
Georgetown University's greatest
athletes, died early today in Jersey
City after a long illness.
Mr.. Devlin, who went from Gen.
trail High School to football, base
ball and basket ball fame at George
town, had been living in semiretire-
ment since resigning as a scout for
the Giants after the 1884 season.
He was named fullback on the
all-time Georgetown football team
chosen by Morris A. Bealle in his
history of Georgetown football, pub
lished last year.
A star of John ]. McGraw's Giants
in the early rough-and-tumble days
of the National League, Mr.. Devlln
was standout ON the 1905 team
which won the World Series. The
New York club took the world
championship after shutting out the
Philadelphia Athletics in four of
the five games played. The Athletics
won the second game by a shutout
for their only series victory.
His record for the most chances
accepted by a third baseman in a
single game-13 in 1908-has been
eoualled but never surpassed.
In his first appearance for a big
league game, he hit home run
with the bases loaded.
Mr.. Devlin played fullback for
GEORGETOWN in 1899 and 1900. After
starring in the interhigh school
championship game of 1898. he
spearheaded the Georgetown offense
for two years.
A powerful runner, he first played
half back, but later was shifted to
fu1lback.
In his first varsity game, against
Navy, his long punts were credited
with keeping the highly touted Mid
shipmen bottled up during most OF
the game. Navy, an overwhelming
favorite, was held to two touch
downs.
In the next game, he ran 60 yards
through the entire st. Johns College
team to score in the first few min
utes of play.
Through the rest of that season.
in which Georgetown won 5, lost 2
and tied 1-Mr. Devlin and Andrew
(Cy) Cummings were the bulwarks
on offense and defense. Mr.. Cum
mings later became chairman OF the
Maryland Racing Commission and
was one of the builders OF the
Laurel Racetrack.
The next year, Mr.. Devlin was
elected captain. In its opening
game, Georgetown held Navy to
one touchdown, which was scored
by q midshipman halfback named
Emory Land. That player, now
Admiral Land, served as chair
man of the Maritime Commission
in World War II, and currently
heads the Air Transport Associa-
ton.
The lone touchdown was scored
when the future admiral blocked a
Devlin kick.

Nizam Orders Cease Fire.
The Nizam of Hyderabad, whose

predominantly Hindu state, was the
only one of 562 native princes not to
come to terms with either India or
Pakistan.
Even to military observers the end
of the campaign came unexpectedly
soon-within three hours after the
Indian commander had issued an
ultimatum to the Nizam's forces to
lay down their arms.
The Indian commander said his
troops were 80 poised we could
enter Hyderabad at will from sew
eral directions. At that time his
troops were about IS miles west and
40 miles east of Secunderabad.
Besides ordering the cease-fire,
the Nizam outlawed the Razakars
private Moslem organization which
India had charged with many border
disorders prior to the invasion, and
agreed to the stationing of Indian
troops in Hyderabad. He said in a
broadcast he had instructed Hydera-
