Riders. Hughes picked off an
other Eastern pass on his own

Riders were unable to cash
in on it.
Cont was the only Roosevelt

ming against Eastern's massive
line. But he injured his right
leg in the third quarter and
was used only for passing from
the spread formation there
after. That too was ineffective
against EaStern'S defense.

To Break Pact
With Manager

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 10
(AP). - Harold Johnson. the
National Boxing Association
light-heavyweight h a m pio n
who is seeking his release from
his manager. Pat Olivieri. says
Olivieri entangled him with
sinister and distreputable peo-
ple."
This is only one of several
things the boxer charged in a
bill of particulars yesterday
when he sued Olivieri for a
financial accounting Of his
earnings for the last 6 years
and release from his contract.
I'm shocked to hear this, I"
olivieri said. It'll never hap
pen." he added when asked if
he would release Johnson from
the contract. I'm stuck too
much money. I never made a
dime on him. Every week he
got money from me-"
johnson said in his suit. filed
in Common Pleas court, that
when he signed the original
contract with Olivieri in Sep
tember of 1855 the terms pro-
vided for the boxer to receive
6625 per cent of earnings and
not less than $1,000 per year.
Then on April 20, 1861, john
son said, new 4-year contract
was signed for Johnson to re-
ceive so per cent of earnings
and not less than $500 a year.
The suit also charged that
Olivieri failed to use his best
efforts to secure boxing con-
tests for johnson and that
$3,725 of the recent Eddie Cot
ton fight purse still is due him.
johnson did not elaborate in
his suit on the charge that
OliVieri "entangled the plaintiff
with sinister and disreputable
people whose interests were in
imicable to the plaintiff end
professional boxing"
Olivieri said the Seattle pro-
moter of the Cotton fight still
owes him $6,500. He said john
son got $4,000 Of the purse.
The manager also charged
that Johnson loves me $70,000.' -

Howard Seeks
ToEnd Slump
In Game Here

Morehouse College of Atlanta
will be a 7-point favorite to
extend Howard University's los
ing streak to seven in a row
when the teams meet tomorrow
in an intersectional game at
Howard Stadium. Game time
is 2 pm.
This will be the final home
game of the season for the
Bisons, who close out their 1861
schedule at Elizabeth City,
N. c.. State Teachers next Sat-
urady.
Howard holds a 6-3-2 edge
over Morehouse in the rivalry
and has not lost to the At
lantans since 1857. However,
it figures to be a different story
this year. Morehouse dropped
its first three games, but has
come back to pull within one
victory of the 500 mark.
Six Straight Losses
On the other hand, the BIZ
sons have lost six in a row
after winning the season
opener from st. Paul's of Vir-
ginia.
Against their only common
opponent to date, Morehouse
lost to Hampton of Virginia,
21-0. while Howard was
whipped, $40, by the Virgin
ianS.
There was a ray of hope
for Coach Bob White when this
weeks medical report came in
Star Halfback Howie Williams
who was thought to be out fol-
the remainder of the season
after being injured two weeks
ago, will suit up for tomor-
rows contest.
A special brace has beer
fitted to Williams shoulder to
protect the injury. However
there is still some doubt, about
Williams ability to handle the
ball with only one good arm.
Williams Is Key
If Williams cannot play, the
BiSons' chances of upsettine
Morehouse appear to be slim
The 195-pound senior bore the
brunt of the running attack
during his first three years
but the Howard ground
game has been virtually non-
existent without him this year
Williams has missed three
games because of injuries, and
played less than half of two
Others.
II the team is to move along
the ground tomorrow, it will
have to depend largely on Leon
Armour, 175-pound fullback
The senior from Baltimore

LINE
By GEORGE HUBER

In all the hubbub last week
about Ernie Davis breaking Jim
Browns scoring and yardage
records at Syracuse, it was
overlooked that Quarterback
Dave Sarette also broke the
school record for throwing
touchdown passes. He tossed
for two scores. his 10th and
goth, passing the old standard
of 10 set by Pat Stark of the
1873 elevens.
Dick Drummond of George
Washington is second in the
country in yardage on kickoff
returns, having brought b K
eight kicks for $50 yards. The
leader is Dick Mooney OF
Idaho, with 365 yards in 10
returns. Drummond hardly has
a chance to move up because a
team has to be scored on before
it gets a kickoff, except at the
start Of a game or the second
half, and CIV has been scored
on only l6 times. Idaho's goal
has been banged about As
times.
When North Carolina went
for the two-point conversion
that beat Tennessee last week,
22-21. in the dying seconds, it
was the first time this year the
Tar Heels had gone for two.
They tried it four times last
year without one success.
One publicity man in search

lean Conference race, but all i:
mot lost. The Redskins, oul

ton on a bid for the mythical

Washington & Lee is aiming
a bit higher, hoping to beat
Sewanee Saturday for its 18th
game without a defeat to break
a school record set by the
1914-5 elevens. Sewanee was
the last team to beat the Gen.
