Holds ZE I 99 ft 99 ft ft ft Intercepted Pass Gives Mississippi Ball at Crimson 14-Yard Mark LEGION FIELD, BIRMINGHAM, Oct. 7 (JP) A stalwart band from the University of Mississippi with a surprising defensive game, halter Alabama's Crimson Tide today battled to a scoreless tie bf 000 amazed fans.

There were scorer charging Mis-for Alabama fumbles thwarted sissippi llwTunity through three every rand then taking the brealis qucne final cmartcr, Ole Miss backed the Crimsons against the wall but lacked the punch that meant victory. On yardage gained, Alabama was far superior but Ole Miss was lhs match of the charging Crimson backs when1 touchdowns threatened. Early in the first period the Red and Blue showed its power, chocking Alabama after losing the ball on the first play on a fumble. Five times thereafter the sturdy Mississippi forwards charged in to check a scoring threat. Twice tackling was so fierce the ball carriers fumbled.

The fourth, period reversed tho twice Mississippi, with its overhead and running game checked decisively, sought desperately for victory with a kick from niacemcnt. Pete Ruby, blond and intercepted an overhead tosa deep in Alabama territory and ha was brought down on Alabama's 15-yard line, while a handful of Mississippians in the stand went wild. Alabama stiffened, however, and Richardson, a tall husky tackle who had smeared the Crimson offensive, went back to place kick. His kick was three feet short of victory. It went squarely between the goal posts, but was low.

Play remained in Alabama territory until just before the final whistle when Howell shot a long pass to "Bubber" Walker who almost got free in midfield where he was brought down from behind on Mississippi's 45-yard line. Ole Miss tightened and Howell punted over the goal line. Howell brought the stands up cheering on the last play of the game as he swerved and stiff-armed his way 35 yards up the field lo return a punt in a last desperate effort for victory.

Urschel, oil millionaire, brought life sentences today to four of the seven defendants convicted at Oklahoma City. It had an echo at Dallas-in the sentencing of two men found guilty of aiding in 'the Labor Day Jail break of Harvey Bailey, southwestern desperado who was among those to receive the maximum penalty under the "Lindbergh" law at Oklahoma City. Bailey, Albert Bates, identified as one of the actual kidnapers, and Mr.

and Mrs. R. G. Shannon, on whose Texas farm Urschel was held captive, reCeived life sentences! Armon Shannon, 22-year-old, was given a ten-year suspended sentence and paroled. Edward Berman and Clifford Skelly, of Minneapolis, convicted of having handled part of the $200,000 Urschel ransom, were sentenced to five years each.

At Dallas, Federal Judge William H. Atwell sentenced Thomas L. Manion, former assistant county jailer, to two years in prison, and fined him $10,000 and gave George C. Bevill, a butcher, a sentence of 14 months for aiding in the escape of Bailey from the county jail. MARION VETERAN ACCIDENT VICTIM COLUMBIA, Oct.

() The New York Giants, "miracle men" of the 1933 baseball season, raced off the enemy's battleground today with thte championship of the world as they outfought and out-hit the Washington Senators in the second successive extra-inning thriller of the series. The mighty bat of "Little Mel" Ott, the Louisiana larruper, who struck the first big blow for the Giants just four days ago, produced the decisive punch with a home run into the -bleacher pavillion in left center in a rousing tenth inning finish.

This big blow broke up a relief pitchers' duel between Adolfo Luque and Jack Russell, gave the Giants their fourth, triumph by the score of 4 to 3 and the series by-a four to one margin, but it was not posted on the score-board until an umpire's decision was reversed and another outraged protest registered, first by the Giants and then by the crestfallen Washington players. Umpire Pfirman, a National at first ruled Ott's hit a two-bagger under ground rules, as Fred acnuite, senator center fielder, dove amongst spectators for the ball, barelv sot hiskived-hancr' ivisfm then cataoulted head-first in t-c spectacular debate that immediately broke out, the Giants led the first protest while Ott remained unwillingly around second base. Pfirman then reversed his decision, ruling the hit a home run after consulting his two American ueague associates on the field, Emmett Ormsby and George Moriarty, as well as Umpire-in-Chief Charles Moran. All four finally agreed that it was a legitimate homer, on the basis of the standing rule that a ball caroming off a player's body or glove into the open stands is good for the circuit. It would have been a double under ground regulations only if it had gone into the bleachers on the bounce but the ball was sailing over Schulte's head as the outfielder stabbed for This provoked another outburst by the Senators, reminiscent of their row with Umpire Moran at first base yesterday, when Heinie- Manush was ejected from the game, dui mey were once more on the losing end of an argument as they saw their last, lingering hopes flying away.

It was a crushing finale for the American League champions, frustrated at every critical turn of the five-game series by a fighting band of Giants who simply refused to be licked and outplayed their previously favored opponents by a wide margin from start to finish. The Senators had lost a bitterly fought game the day before to Carl Hub-bell, southpaw winner of two contests. They were making a last-ditch fight today before the biggest crowd of the series in Washington, numbering 28,454 cash customers. They had seen their veteran righthander, Al Crowder, knocked out of the box for the second straight time as the rampant Giants piled up a 3-0 lead in less than six full innings. They had then rallied in their own half of the sixth to pound Young Hal Schumacher, brilliant right-hander, out of the box and tie the score amid a tumult of shouting as Big Fred Schulte walloped a home run into the left field pavilion crowd, with Heinie Manush and Joe Cronin on the bases.

From there on, into extra innings for the second straight day, it was a pitching duel the 42-year-old Cuban, Luque, making his first appearance in the world series since he was with the Reds in 1919, and the fast-ball relief star of the Senators, Russell. Russell choked off Giant threats in the eighth and ninth and there were two out in the tenth when Ott came up for the fifth and last time of the day. "Little Mel" had not gotten the semblance of a safe blow up to that time. He was fanned by Crowder on his first two trips to the plate. He flied out to Manush the next two times.

There were two strikes on -Ott when the chunky little outfielder took his familiar windup, hoisted his right leg and lashed into the ball. Ordinarily, Ott is a pull hitter who slings his drives to right but this time he lifted the ball high and far into left-center. Schulte was off with the crack of the bat and so was Manush. The center- Ott 9.9 ft ft ft Hitt booted the goal from placement. The Yellow Jackets received the kickoff and punted on second down, Craft returning for Mississippi to within seven yards of the spot from which the ball was kicked.

The Chocs failed to gain and a pass on fourth down was incomplete and the ball went over to the Teacher 35. The Jackets made a first down on line plays but Hitt intercepted Boyd's toss at his own 45 and returned to the Teacher 47. Captain Hitt' punted cn second down and when the Teachers kicked back on second down. Craft returned 47 yards for a touchdown Hitt again kicked the point from placement. The received failed to gain and minted.

Cantain Hitt made a first down on a lateral pass to the Teacher 45, and Hood plunged through tackle for an- i other first down to the Jacket 32. crart circled end for 18 yardsbut Hood fumbled and Halbert covered for the Teachers on their own 14 and Boyd punted out to midfield just before the quarter ended. Second Quarter Hood and Ming spun through for a first down at the Teacher 36, and the same pair smashed through for another first down to the 25, but with Hitt the only backfield regular in the game the Choc attack bogged down and Hitt missed a placement try from the -Teacher's 32 Hitt broke loose for a 40 yard run on -lateral from Eddleman'but the play was called back and the Chocs penalized for holding. Eddleman punted weakly out of bounds on his own 42. Boyd tossed to Green for a 25 yard gain, and Boyd to Brown was good for a first down to the Choctaw 13 Green plunged through for a first down to the Choctaw one yard line, and Boyd took it over for a touchdown.

Boyd passed to Hulbert for the extra point. Coach Robinson sent his first string halfbacks back into the game but the Teachers were holding better and forced a punt. On an exchange of punts the Choctaws -gained 25 yards. Craft, returning the Teachers kick to the Jacket 30 just before the half ended. Third Period The Chocs received the kickoff and Cross, Peeples and Craft made a first down to midfield, Cross making another first down unaided, but passes fell incomplete and the teams traded punts, Craft misjudging Boyd's boot, the Choctaw safety man being downed on his own 20.

The Braves kicked back on first down and Hunt intercepted a Teacher pass at midfield. Cross and Peeples crashed through for a first down at the Teacher 38, and Willie Cross squirmed through for a first down on the Jacket 20. But plunges by Cross and Craft netted only nine yards and ten inches and the ball went over to the Teacher 11. Boyd kicked, out to Craft, another rolling punt which Popeye took and stumbled at the Teacher 47 where the Braves again took up the offensive burden. Craft passed to Paul Davis for a first down on the Teacher 30 and Craft completed another to Davis to the Jacket 8 yard line just before the quarter ended.

Fourth Quarter Craft circled end for the touchdown and Captain Hitt kicked from placement for the third successive time. The Teachers received and kicked after failing to gain. Hitt crashed off tackle for a first down into Teacher territory and Craft passed to Hitt on the Teacher 30 the big Choctaw captain carrying the leather to the Jacket 17. Craft passed to Smith for a touchdown but the play was recalled by a penalty, but Craft came right back with a pass to Peeples on the 4 yard line. Peeples required four plunges to make a touchdown.

Hitt's fourth attempt at placement was wide of the mark. With both lineups filling with substitutes it seemed hard for either outfit to make any real offensive gestures, but late in the period a second string Choctaw lineup got away from some gains with M. Toler spearhead of the attack. Priester interspersed To-ler's plunges with a neat pass to Smith which carried the Indians to the Jacket 25. Toler plunged for a first down to the Teacher 13 and Priester passed to Baker for the touchdown.

Bob Davis missed a drop kick attempt. Inning Triumph fielder was nearer and the ball touched his outstretched glove as it caromed into the crowd, Schulte after it. It was a desperate effort, even though it failed; and Schulte clambered out limping, The with two out in their last turn at bat, made one more effort to avert defeat, ivian-ager Cronin, who recovered his batting eye for the first time in the series, lashed his third straight hit to left field after Goslin and Ma-nush had been retired. The dangerous Schulte was pktssed and Kerr dispatched to run for the bruised outfielder, but Joe Kuhcl ended the game and the battle by striking out. This was the climax of a great piece of relief, hurling by the Cu-banola curver, Luque, who choked off the Senators in the sixth after they had rappe Schumacher, for five straight hits and then limited them to two singles in the last four innings.

Old TJolfo, a squat, seasoned campaigner who has been in the big leagues for 18 years, struck out the Senator side in the seventh, Russell, Myer and Goslin; as he duplicated Hubbell's ning game feat and of the-Giants' cxtxaorcunaiy -rurces It was ljuquc wwww -worked tie came to the Giants last year from Brooklyn and like most of the other made-over material on the New York roster, the Cuban has been a tower of strength in the rescue role all this year. The Giants, piloted, to their first triumph under John McGraw's successor, Bill Terry, won the world series the way they captured the pennant by beating their rivals to the pinch behind superlative pitch ing and taking aggressive advant age of all opportunities. A rank outsider last spring in the National League race, they took and kept the lead despite all obstacles and skepticism. This was the tenth world series for a Giant outfit, the fourth time they have emerged the victors and their first since McGraw "masterminded" his men to triumph over the Yankees in 1922. It was also the most decisive National League victory since that time and the fourth time in the past eleven years that the forces of the senior circuit have been able to turn back their Amer ican League rivals M'COMB COUNCIL ADOPTS BUDGET School Board Must Negotiate Own Loan to Carry On School Program McCOMB, Oct.

7 In a special session the McComb city council this week adopted the budget of $62,204 for the city schools for the 1933-34 session, thus answering a quetsion of long standing. The formal adoption of the budget came with the announcement that the city school board would have to effect a loan to meet school expenses until tax collecting time in February since, under a ruling handed City Attorney W. G. Mc-Lain by the attorney general, Greek L. Rice, the city council has not the authority to make such a loan.

The city council had sought to obtain through the R. F. C. a loan of $25,000 "to carry the schools over that period between the time the budget is made and the taxes actually collected." Dr. H.

W. Kostmayer of New Orleans, Dr. L. J. Clark of Vicksburg and Dr.

J. W. D. Dicks of Natchez were on the program cf the Pike County Medical society yesterday. In the afternoon the members of the society and their guests saw Dr.

Kostmayer, prof es-sor of Gunocology in Tulane University, New Orleans, work in a clinic. In the formal meeting and banquet that evening interesting lectures were given by the guests of honor. Dr. Dicks is president of the State Medical association and Dr. Clark is an authority on internal medicine.

By PURSER HEWITT CLINTON, Oct. 7 These Choc-taks like that score of 33-7. It suits them so well that they used it again today, beating the Hat-tiesburg State Teachers the self-sam score they turned in against Louisfana College last Saturday. And the game was like last MiK's in other -ways. Harry "Pop-eye'HCraft, stellar halfback, again madei three touchdowns for the TribesnSen, and Sam Peeples again made ore.

Today, Baker caught a pass fbr the fifth score, while Merton Toisr was the fifth scorer last week. V' The game today again showed that the Redskins have a good team, with a versatile offense and a light but scrapping defensive set-up. While the Braves were utilizing all kinds of plays to gain 328 yards from scrimmage, they held the Invaders to a bare 71 yards, almost all of which was made on passes. The Indians ran up 20 first downs to four for the Jackets. These figures do not take In the long punt-returns made by Craft, one of them for a touchdown from midfield.

The lone Jacket rally came in the second half with Boyd passing accurately to Brown and Green over second string Choctaw backs. Boyd crashed over for a two-yard gain for the touchdown and then passed to Hulbert for the extra The Teachers displayed a team ragged in many phases, particularly tackling, but Shows and Johnson showed to advantage in the. fore wall, with Boyd outstanding as a back. For the Tribesmen, I. L.

Toler played a wonderful game at tackle, with the center trio of Gordon, Lovell and Hunt again in fine form, especially Hunt. The backfield, headed by Captain Hitt proved its right to all-star' distinction, Craft and Peeples all turning in good work. Paul Davis and Chick Smith did well ss the Xlankmen. On the opening kickoff, Boyd of Teachers fumbled at his own 25 with Peeples recovering for the Chocs. On third down Craft slipped off tackle for a first down to the Teacher 14 and on two plunges Peeples made another first down to the Teacher 3, Craft circled right end for the touchdown.
