The Odd Follaws Uept their goal-lino uncros ed Saturday night Midlothian Defeated Kerens Friday 14-6 KERENS, Nov. Ju- pitc" Pluvius broke up the Kerens-Midlothian football game here Friday afternoon as Midlothian led in scoring by the count of 14-6. At the beginning of the final pericd, a strong gale was impeding the progress of thee game and darlineess had enveloped the playing field. The game was called Just as a terrific cloud bu st of rain completely drenched the players and remain- Ing spectators. Midlothian scored twice during the first half.

Their first touchdown came as the result of a blocked kick as the ball went over to Midlothian on the fourth down on Kerens' 5-yard line. Later Midlothian scored another counter as the result of a Kerens fumble. Kerens had the edge on practically all other departments of the game. During the second half, Kerens had possession of the ball most of the time but were handicapped by the strong wind and dust. The Bobcats counted with a touchdown in the third quarter and looked like a good bet in the final quarter but were halted by the unfavorable playing conditions.

Capacity crowds of 65,000 jammed Into Mci jl stadium and went wild over Babe Ruth as a 'Toup of big lea gue baseball stars from th Unit ed States trounced two overawed teams of Japanese all-stars. The barnstorming Americans trimmed the Nippon all-stars 5 to 1 today after running away with a 17 to 1 affair against the'Tokyo all stars in their debut yesterday The fans idolized the Babe al- thouph he failed to get a homer in either game, and In turn he was greatly Impressed with their courtesy and eagerness to see the runs pile up. even if they all on one side.

Two homers by Earl Avei'ill and one apiece by Lou Gehrifr and Jimmy Foxx accounted for all of the winners' tallies today. Foxx started the scorinp in the scconc when he hit for the circuit after Gehrig had walked. Averill followed with another in the same inning. Gchrig got his four- bag- ger in the third and Averin his second In the seventh. Undismayed by the reputations of the American recking crew.

Date pitched courageously, refusing to be disheartened even when the sluggers', drives fell among the scrambling fans in distant stands. Babe singled once, walked once, filed 'out twice and grounded out once. Both of his flies were deep into right field and possibly would have been good for homers in the less massive American parks. His clowniner on first base, where he played the last six innings, kept the crowd in an appreciative uproar. The lone Japanese run was unearned.

It came as the result of a hit batsman, a wild throw by Catcher Hayes and an outfield fly. Quigley Versatile In Sport Field Saturday's Stars By The Associated fress. played smart football for years.
