The Milford High School Bucca-
neer gridmen of Head Coach Bob
Leslie and his. assistant, Bill Nau-
mann, sloshed for seven tOuchdOwns
last Saturday night as they swamp
ed Georgetown High School in the
mud of the Milford Ball Park, 43 to
0.
It was the highest point total
for a Milford eleven" in many
years and the worse defeat to
Georgetown team in long time. 1t
was not a matter Of pouring it
on" because the Milford coaches
tried to keep the count down. The
BuccaneeT bench was swept clean
of all players except freshmen, as
early as the second quarter.
While we don't believe in max
ing stars out of certain players be
cause of individual performances,
we can't help but mention a few
outstanding plays and results from
individual efforts as the victory
starved, pOint-hungry Buccaneers
made their own breaks and then
took advantage of them, to capital
ize on every scoring opportunity.
Twice during the game the Bucca-
neers found themselves set back by
the same plague of called back
tOuchdOwns" that has cost them
five six-pOinters and at least one
victory this year. Early in the
game, Dickie Williams broke off
tackle, reversed his field and ran
Is yards to pay dirt only to have
a holding penalty call it back. Near
the end of the game, Roy Tawes
ran 55 yards through a broken field.
deliberately picking his holes and
side-stepping would-be tacklers for
the prettiest run of the game, only
to have his efforts nullified by a
clipping penalty.
Dickie Williams scored four times
besides the one called back. Danny
Bennett counted twice with spec
taculars runs of 80 and "A yards
as his terrific speed was unhamper-
ed even in the mud, and Rich Will
son, playing defensive tackle, ran
Is yards for a touchdown as he
scOOped up a Georgetown punt
which was beautifully blocked by
Jack Baynum and Elmer Lindale
Little Herman" Jester, Bucca-
neer 125-pound quarterback, called
a beautiful game, made sizable
yaTdage himself and only attempt
ed one pass which was intercepted.
He engineered the Milford ground
attack to IA first downs and 237
yards rushing.
The Milford defensive line and
their fine line hackers played in
the Georgetown backfield most of
the night Their defense was so air
tight that the visitors gained only
three first downs, all in the open
ing quarter, and had a net yardage
for the game of a minus as, time
after time, Ends Jack Baynum and
Wilson Jones, Tackle Rich Wilson
and Guard Larry Walton, with line
hackers Buddy Jester and Elmer
Lindale, would swarm all over the
Georgetown back for long losses,
ranging Up to Is yards on a single
play.
At no time did the Georgetown
team stop fighting or even let up as
the score against them continued
to mount. They played their hearts
out against a better team and some
bad breaks, but played it Clearly
and with outstanding sportsman
ship. Both of these teams showed
real evidence Of having been taught
to fight hard, but to fight clean; to
win if possible, but win or lose, to
be good sports and gain honor out
of victory or defeat.
Remember: Maybe you can't be
a good athlete, but you can be a
good sport.

There once was 3 writer named
Damon Runyon and he had a tai
ent. He died in 1916, leaving be-
hind a legacy of stories rich with
the flavor of Broadway. Many
tributes have been paid to him,
the most notable of which, per-
haps, is the Damon Runyon Cam
Ger Fund. Then there is a new
film based on one of his tales,
"Bloodhounds of Broadway" which
opened yesterday at the Palace.
This is less a tribute than it is
the mailing down of the lid. If
the Republicans pass a law per-
mitting return from the grave
(Which THEY won't do), Mr.. Run
yon might not want to take ad-
vantage of it until this whole thing
blows over.
"Bloodhounds of Broadway" Is
a Technicolor comedy with music
with the famed George Jessel
touch. AS touches go. this is not
the lightest one in the world.
According to one authority, there
is nothing left of the original
Runyon but a couple of blood
hounds in the adaptation by Al
bert Mannheimer and screenplay
by Sy Romberg. They are per-
sonable and talented bloodhounds,
though, and it might have been
wise to make more use of them.
Mitzi Gaynor is the human
star of "Bloodhounds of Broad
way" and she makes some
stretches Of it quite tolerable.
She is a most fetching lass, with
bright and shining personality
and considerable talent for Civ
ing life to song and dance num-
bers. If it is necessary to sit
through the duller stretches of
Mr.. Jessel's movie in order to
spend some time with Mitzi, it is
a small price to pay.
"Bloodhounds of Broadway"
starts out promisingly, but it
picks up triteness along the way
and apparently there wasn't any,
thing Director Harrnan Jones
could do about it. At least there
are few signs that he did do
anything about it.
Miss Gaynor is cast as a back
woods Georgia girl brought to
New York by a character named
Numbers Foster. His intent is hon.
orable and he is full of innocence.
His doll, a party named Yvcnne,
will not buy. this, however. Espe-
cially when Emily Ann trades her
gingham for store clothes and
turns out not to be exactly a child.
It is not healthy for Numbers
to have Yvonne irked with him,
because she will spill an to
State Crime Investigating Com
mittee, a body he. a wealthy
bookie, sensibly shuns. There is
not much point in going into any
detail. Mr.. Jessel is no producer
to toy with any o. Henry endings.
In fact, there is some suspicion
aroused here that he may not
be the man to toy with Damon
Runyon endings.
The leading members of Miss
Gaynor's supporting cast (after
the bloodhounds, are Scott Brady
CNumbers), Marguerite Chapman
(Yvonne), Wally Vernon and Mitzi
Green. Mr.. Vernon, as a man
named Poorly Sammis, and Miss
Green are trustworthy hands and
inject some life into the comedy
now and then. And Miss Gaynor's
musical numbers are thoroughly
agreeable. The most distinctive
thing about the Palace film, how
ever. is that it is the only movie
around with two girls named Mitzi.

Korean Politics
By STAN CARTER

PUSAN, Korea Up - South Ko-
rean police and troops have been
alerted for possible Communist
guerrilla interference Tuesday in
the republics first popular election
Of a president and vice president.
A government spokesman said
reports had been received that the
Communists had ordered guerrillas
to disrupt the election.
The republic has S,21S.00 eligible
voters.
Syngman Rhee, n, the nations
first president, is considered GER
tain to be returned to office.
But Rhee, using public pressure
and police, recently forced the As
sembly to change the constitution
to provide for the popular cleo
ton.
Rhee has made no campaign
speech. Since his is the only name
and face known to the bulk of the
voters, his three opponents are
given little chance of winning.
They are Che Bong Am, vice
chairman of the National Assem-
bly,; Hugh Gym, former ambassa-
dor to the U. S., and Lee 81 Yung,
former vice president.
There are nine aspirants for vice
president. Six are classed as Rhee
supporters but Rhee has endorsed
no one.

lister directed recent arrests Of

fight with the Assembly, was nom

Coast Guard Mascot ''Bill'
"A Pelican OF Certain Age,
Uncertain Sex, On Ariadne

! served in style by the Coast Guard
at any time Of the day or night.
The crew will have none of this,
however. Even pelican must OBJ
serve Coast Guard chow schedule
S. Crew members take turns catch
ing Bills chow with rod and reel
and then feed him.
His appetite matches that of
most sea going species.
One occasion Bill could be seen
making way with nine medium
sized fish without batting a pelican
lash. He washed down this morsel
with a quart of water.
Bill is skittish about his age, but
it has been guessed as one year by
Key Westers who have analysed
him. #
His habits conform to the tradi-
tons of the sea. He takes an oc-
casional night out, but dutifully re-
turns each morning at $50 for his
morning chow. Unremorseful at his
night on the town he announces his
arrival with his loud demanding
calls.
One stormy midnight the Ariadne
was sent out on an errand of mer-
cey, Rodney N. Strelau, SKIS, Bills
biographer and keeper, searched
the skies for the ubiquitous pelican.
A good mascot should stick to a
ship in foul weather as well as
fail. The crew members had about
given up their mascot as a fair
weather friend, when over the ho-
rizon swooping in for q two point
landing, crying a shout of greeting
and encouragement came Bill.
The rescue mission was a sue
cess, as Bills ship tenure will be
- unless - and the crew has this
one small worm of doubt, unless
Bill turns out to be female pelican,
in which case Coast Guard regula-
tons will demand his or her exile
to the SPARs.
