Clark Griffith. president of the

"The double-decking of the steel

Howard Presenting New Look
In Opener AGAINST BIuefieId

If Howard University's Off
campus followers don't recognize
the team which takes the field
against Bluefield State Teachers

what the students refer to as the
new look"
The Bisons meet Bluefield in
the season opener at 2 pm. at
Howard Stadium. It will be the
18th meeting of the two Central
intercollegiate Athletic Associa-
ton teams since the 'ivalry got
under way in 1927. Howard

Tom Johnson and Herman
Dawes. physical education staff
members who have coached mi

taken over the football chores
this year. The team which used
the T and split-T offenses fer
six years will be running from
the single wing and the person
mel, the heaviest IN the 16-team
conference in recent years, is
now probably the lightest.
The big factor n the shift

Howard coaches were not willing

BisonS' tailback.
Three other seasoned ball

backfeld. They are Quarterback
Andy Chambers, Wingback Phil
Strother, and Fullback Gene
Smith.

FaVorite's Comeback
To Win Adds Drama
To Pacing Classic
BY the Associoted Press

DELAWARE, Ohio, Sept. 25.-
A brown colt which wrote a
story book finish to yesterdays
Little Brown jug" was hailed
today as the best of this coun-
try's 3-year-old PAGERS.
Apparently hopelessly out of
1t after losing the first two heats
of the $54.971.20 classic. Cleve-
lander George H. Tipling'S
speedy Keystoner grabbed the
third mile dash and then de-
feated two other heat winners
in an extra heat to pick up
$21,255.93.
It was the first four-heat
Little Brown jug since the
inaugural in 1916, and it wasn't
settled until deep dusk had
fallen over the Delaware County
Fairgrounds half-mile track.
The sterling son of Hal Dale
Lata Long, the pre-race favorite,
finished sixth in the first heat,
but was only a length back of
Hillsota, owned by F. R. McNabb
of Ithaca, Mich, as that horse
took the second.
Newport Chief, sideWheeling
star of the Newport Stock Farm
of Plainfield, N. j., took the
opening dash, with Hillsota Sec
ond, and it looked as if one of
them would wrap it up in the
third heat. Newport Chief led
all the way to the head Of the
stretch, and Hillsota stormed
from far back and headed for
the wire.
But Keystoner, under the ex-
pert guidance of veteran Frank
Erwin, leading Grand Circuit
driver of 1852 from Aiken, S. c..
broke out of the pack to nip
Hlllsota by a neck in a great
stretch drive.
The three heat winners came
back for the big one, with an
extra $10.994.44 going to the
winner.
Newport Chief took the lead,
with Keystoner second and Hill
sofa third. as they Rugged the
rail for the first half mile in
1:0835. They went the final
half mile in 1:01, and Key
stoner was going away. length
ahead of Newport Chief, as they
went under the wire. Hillsota
broke gait SO yards from the
finish and was five lengths away.
Keystoner thus became the
first Ohio-oWned horse to win
the fixture. and Erwin became
the third driver to win it twice.
About 10000 saw the race in
which Keystoner boosted his
1853 winnings to $53,959.93. Hill
sofa won $13.926. Newport Chief

When the Potomac River is re-
ported clear at Harpers Ferry
and Great Falls, but on arrival to
fish you find it muddy or very
dirty, the reason is low water
and high winds. When the Po-
tomac is low, wave action stirs
mud from the bottom as we'll as
the banks and the whole river
seems muddy except in a few
spots. Such conditions account
for the rather poor catches
lately.
Frequently we have inquiries
for good places to put up week
ends when on a trip to the Shen-
andoah for smallmouth bass.
Such place is Shenandoah River
Lodge, owned and managed by
Ted and Rose Hubers. We've
had many pleasing reports from
friends who have been guests
there. And incidentally this is
one of the finest of all seasons in
which to fish the Shenandoah.
The Lodge will remain open un-
til November l. 1t is located on
the banks of the river just of
Route IL between Luray and
Front Royal, telephone Luray.

Our choice for Chesapeake Bay
fishing this week end would be
the section from Point Lookout
up the Potomac as far as Blak-
iston Island and on the Western
Shore up as far as Cedar Point.
Weather permitting, fishing has
been generally good on both sides
of the Point Lookout peninsula
with trout. blues, and small rock
fish predominating.
Herring Bav also is a good bet
for the skiff fisherman. with

the previous session, it was
agreed the Browns could move.
Where they can move will be
taken up Sunday, but final ap-
proval by the club owners will
be sought at another nesting,

A group from st. Louis also
will be on hand Sunday to make

fans and minority stockholders;
Alderman A. j. Cervantes, Har-

dent of a travel agency, are in

Meanwhile, Baltimore con-

Veeck, who would continue as
