ing for Franklin Field, Army and
Navy are taking their last warm
ups for game Army should win,
but Army may not. The Cadets
have developed the habit Of slip
ping over the hill late in Novem-

keen and ready in late September
or early October.
This can't always be done.
Navy has the youth and power to
match Army, but 1t lacks Army's

Cain and Stephenson. But Navy
is given better than an outside

Mikan With 2S Points
Protects BA Lead; :.
Stags Are Victors
BY The Assoeiofsd Press

Big George Mikan Of the Min
neapolis Lakers. last years un-
disputed king Of the professional
hoopsters, is not yet ready to yield
his laurels to Alex Groza.
The giant 6-foot-9-inch center
demonstrated last night that he
still vas the one to beat for top
scoring honors. All he did was
sink 20 points, 13 in the final
quarter, to enable his team to
overcome q 7-point deficit and
go on to defeat the Baltimore
Bullets, 84-72. -
It was the Lakers' seventh tri-
umph In 10 games and left them
practically tied with Fort Wayne
for the lead In the Central Divi-
sion Of the National Basket Ball
Association. The idle Pistons still
are in front on percentage with
a 6-2 record. -
Mikan now has 249 points Oin
10 games for a 24.9 average.
Groza. In 13 games. has 314 points
for q 24.2 average. The former
Kentucky star was held to II
points, his smallest total of the
year, as the Chicago Stays downed
his Indianapolis Olympians last
night, 92-72. Andy Phillips. Of
Illinois fame, paced the Stays
with II points, but high scoring
honors went to the Olympians'
Wah-Wah Jones, who sank %.
Harry Boykoff, former st. Johns
(Brooklyn) star, poured 20 points
through the hoop, but that did not
prevent the Rochester Royals from
whipping his Waterloo Hawks,
90-71. Bob Davies, the play-mak-
ing Rochester forward, made 18.
The Royals cut their squad with

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 24.-The
Ivy League, now and then ham
pered by extra scholastic handi-
caps, takes its place again among
the strongest Of the sections.
It isn't the strongest section but
in Princeton, Dartmouth, Penn
and Cornell, they have at least
four teams that would be match
for any other quartet.
The annual old-fashioned ira
ditional battle between Pennsyl-
vania and Cornell will carry even
deeper interest. So far Penn has
lost three games to Pittsburgh,
Virginia and Army. But the
Quakers haven't lost an Ivy League
contest yet. George Munger's
team has beaten Dartmouth.
Princeton, Columbia and Navy. If
Penn can duck by Cornell this af-
ternoon, the Red and Blue will
wave over the Ivy ramparts with
something to spare.
Princeton has lost to Pennsyl-
vania and Cornell by points after
touchdown. The Tigers have
beaten Dartmouth, Yale and Har-
ward. Cornell has lost to Dart
mouth. Dartmouth has lost to
Pennsylvania and Princeton. Har-
ward has had the worst year in
her history, after q happy early
season prospect before the STAN
ford game. Yale has done all any
one could ask for.
II Pennsylvania wins from Cor
nell today at Franklin Field, 1t
will mean q clean sweep In Its
eastern league engagements. This
should be one of the best OF their
many meetings. Penn has the
stronger-lo looking line and Cornell
should have a slight edge in back
field speed and drive. Yet Penn
has three fine backs in Bagnell
Dooney and Deuber. where Bag
nell is especially valuable.

ready to give Sonny Boy West q
big surprise when they meet in the
10-round main event Of the Liberty

IA. 1914, but he's beaten many Of
the good ones and lost few since. :"

both Ray Brown and Julio Jiminez
In Mexico City last year. He also
won q decision over and scored an
eighth-round TKO against Enrique
Bolanos when the lightweight title
contender was boxing as a feather

Ernesto has gone undefeated in
Mexican and South American rings
since 1916. He has split two de-
cisions to Luther Burgess, boxed a
draw with Glen Flanagan and lost
q close decision to Jay Watkins
since invading this country.
"The boys a legitimate feather
weight, but he takes On the light
weights, too." Harris says. He will
weigh in at around 1873 against
Vests 1875 pounds.
A six-round supporting bout will
pair OF Walter. Rowan and Angel
