Christiansted, St. Croix, v. /.
November 8, 1913
Dear Mr.. Editor:
Please allow me just a tiny
space to thank my fellow voters
of St. Croix in selecting for Man
at-Large, Mr.. L. E. Harrigan.
/ believe no better selection
could have been made and altho
all kinds of strategy was used to
throw him out, he still remains
Man-at-Large with a margin of
over 200 votes.
So far, our campaigns have
been pretty decent with the ex-
ception of unWarranted attacks
on our beloved president MI.
Harrigan. Let us hope that the
opponent will learn a valuable
Lesson and realize that the time of
low route to get in the Council
is passed. ST. Croix is lifting its
head to intelligence.
May the other candidates work
in harmony with each other.
Thank you for space, Mr.. Edi-
tor.

Administration.
Now that this prediction has
failed, there are various new
reports of various new jobs
that the present Governor of
the Virgin Islands is supposed
to be in line for under the Tru-
man administration. Of, course
every good citizen stands
ready to serve his country in
any way that our President
may wish. However, no one
has even suggested any new
assignment to me and / have
not expressed the desire for
new assignment to anyone
else.
So far as / know, the Chief
Executive continued, neither
the President Of the United
States nor the people of the
Virgin Islands have indicated
a desire that ! should leave
my post. There is a lot Of work
to be done here in this COM
munity. I hope we can proceed

Hugh, and 13-year-old Paul, also
1876 pounds, are brothers. In spite
Of his youth Paul is one Of
Coach Orrel Mitchell's most de-
pendable tackles, while Hugh Is
a first-string guard.
Bob ODonnell-no relation to
the other three-is a 160-pound
fullback.
"We think John Jude is about
the. finest schoolboy player in
town." says Mitchell. He played
center last year, but I shifted
him to end and also shifted Tom
Crowley, a quarterback last year,
to end. They both are over feet
and need height on the ends
to get a passing attack"
Crowley also is part of BROTH
er act. His brother Billy plays
center.
If Bill Bidwill, son of Charles
Bidwill. the late owner of the
football Cardinals, looks as
though he has that professional
touch, 1t will be understandable.
He practiced with the Cardi-
mails in spring practice this year."
explains Father Dugan, land just
a couple of weeks ago got some
pointers from Dick Poillon of the
Redskins on kicking placements.
"Bidwill hadn't been doing well
at placekicking and when Dick
came out with a couple of other
Redskins to play golf I asked him
to show BidWill a thing or two.

The Redskins are working over
time cn pass defense in preparation
for Sundays game with Green Bay
at Milwaukee after a careful scru-
tiny of National Football League
statistics.
"We noticed that Jack Jacobs has
had 10 passes intercepted this year" !"
said Coach Turk Edwards, so we
figure he'll throw few to us Sum-
day and we want to be ready for
him. I don't think he'll get away
with any long, down-field throws
like he made against us in Birming-
ham. I'll be disappointed if he
does"
Jacobs has completed AZ of his
81 throws-three for touchdowns-
and will be the arm to watch. He's
got good receiver in Clyde Good
night. who has caught Is, but the
Tribes board of strategy thinks it
can bottle up Mr.. Goodnight. Howie
Livingston will see more action than
in the past three games, if his knee
holds up, and there's a chance that
Bones Taylor will be shifted to de-
fensive halfback to utilize his height
Edwards has toyed with the idea
all season.
ION figures we've got a good
chance against the Packers" said
the coach. But the most convincing
figures are those on the scoreboard.
That's the place to beat them"
Statistics show the Redskins have
outgained the Packers in the air,
211 yards to ia. but trail in ground
offense, l26 to. 18l. Defensively the
Tribes record was blasted by the
Philadelphia debacle last Sunday,
but they'll improve. They'll i'm

Cardinals and 155-pound guard
whose mother wants him to quit
before he hurts some one, all
are part of the Georgetown Prep
football team, which will seek
its fifth straight victory tomor-
row at st. Adams.
John Await, 17-year-old tackle,
is earning himself the reputation
of being the toughest little pack
age to trample over the Garrett
Park gridiron. He'll be playing
tomorrow's game with his hand
in a cast. He broke it in scrim-
mage, but no such insignificant
injury will keep him on the
bench.
He is fast, rough and tough"
says Father Thomas Dugan, ath-
letic director. His mother was
down last week and told me she
didn't want him to play because
he might hurt some one. Just
last week he hit one Of our quar-
terbacks in Scrimmage, and the
boy didn't remember a thing un-
til the next day. He couldn't
even recall going to class that
morning."

Well, Poillon spent a half hour
with Bill and that was enough.
He has kicked II out of 13 since
then. Before that he kicked only
7 out of 81 over a two-year
period
"He showed me where to kick" ,"
explained Bidwell. He told me
to pick out my spot in advance
and keep my eye on it."
In spite of Georgetown Prep's
record-besides Bulls and the
Bulls B team, it is the only un-
defeated, united schoolboy eleven
in the Washington area-Mitch-
ell is holding his enthusiasm in
check.
1--WE haven't had any real
tests yet," he says. I'VE have a
lot Of young boys-only one boy
on the squad has reached 18-
and they have plenty of spirit.
Whether the team really is good
remains to be seen. We have
lot of respect for st. Albans and
should get a good test tomorrow.
After that comes Loyola High,
considered the best in Balti-
more"
In whipping four teams, in
cluding good Wilson High
eleven, 1910, the Prepmen have
run up 1876 points, while holding
the opposition to 18.
Maybe the Prepmen have been
showing the opposition their ros-
ter before each game. That's
enough to keep any team con-
fused for at least a half.

Duke Depends on Subs
Against Virginia Tech
As Injuries Hit Team
by the Asseeioisd Press

RICHMOND, Va, Oct. 21.-Duke
Coach Wallace Wade kept a close
eye on his list of substitutes today.
The Blue Devils apparently are
going to have to depend heavily
on reserves to keep them in the
ranks of the. Nations undefeated
teams in Saturdays contest at Roa-
noke, Va, with Virginia Tech.
Wade's first eleven was dotted
with players nursing sprains and
bruises as the result of a bruising
game with Maryland. Among the
aces who are out were Paul
Stephanz, John Montgomery and Ed
Austin. And Fred Folger and Billy
Cox were in subpar condition.
Stephanz' fullback slot may be
occupied by Jack Mounie, Ben Will
liams or Louis Viau. Mounie already
has been used considerably in the
Duke backfield.
II Folger and Cox aren't ready to
go, Earle McKeown, a Stocky tall
back, may alternate with Roland
Hodges. George Swalchick will help
out Jack Eslick in the blocking back
position If Montgomery doesn't play.
Virginia Techs Gobblers also
moaned over injuries. Coach Robert
c. Bob McNeish said he would
have to depend on reserves in the
Duke tussle. McNeish is trying
Ralph Beard at right halfback in
place Of the injured Chip Collum.
At left halfback is Bobby Webb,
substituting for Ray Beasley. Beas-
ley has bruised shoulder.

Flamisch, wingback-turned up with
