DASCH ELEVEN MEETS CRIMSON Amateur Grid Teams Clash In Today's Sandlot Event By JESSE A. LIVTHICI Sports Editor mission price, sell on a cash basis and then turn half the receipts over to war relief?" Our fan may have something here. There may be some who would do these very things, even if you refuse to believe it. Hot Hal IN ANY EVENT, leaving aside these sordid thoughts. Navy took all the steam out of the Purdue Boiler makers in the Stadium yesterday.

The Middies engaged in a spir ited prep battle for the big game to come on December 2. Results of both the Army and Navy games are like tossing logs on a fire that is already flaming high. The clash looms as a wow de luxe. And in the meantime how did you like the work of Navy's Hal Hamberg yesterday, or don't you thrill to one great player when a team is filled up with them? Trouble Brewing? THERE LOOMS a possibility In baseball that may not be too good should it come to pass. Judge Landis has been ill for some time.

There is a chance that he may be forced to retire from his post as the game's high commissioner and policeman deluxe. Should this come to pass there will be a wide difference of opinion as to the effects for good or ill. The Judge has always had a flair for the theatrical. Often he burns you up. But there is no discounting his value to the great national pastime.

He a guy they won miss until somebody else takes over under a new sort of contract, which is almost certain to happen. Responsible baseball heads would do 'ell to make haste slowly when, and if, Landis gives up tl.e post. It would be easy to make a mistake. The Big IF AT THE moment, however, base balls leaders have taken a wise course, in their recent meeting to discuss the future of the major agreement, and to consider the Landis situation and the possibili ties, they gave the Judge a vote of confidence. I his means that at the coming annual winter meeting of the leagues the Judge will find him self reelected for a seven-year term to start when his present con tract expires, January, 1946, if his health permits.

That last "if" is the important meat in the coconut. BEFORE THE game with Penn. Army's coach. Lieut. Col.

Earl II. Illnlk was asked whethrr he thought the Cadets would win. "The game's going to be tough," was the Blaik rejoinder. So the score. Army, 62; Penn, 7, probably indicates what Blaik meant.

But what did he mean? 55-0 Grid Victo rv To Morgan. Slate The Morgan State College football team made another bid today for top rank among the nation's Negro college elevens with a 55-to-0 win over Hampton Institute, of Hampton, Va. The Morganites, sparked by Terry Day, who accounted for two touchdowns and six extra points, scored in every period as they returned to the win column after a 2-0 loss last week to the Tuskegee Air Force team. Left Halfback Day opened the scoring in the first period with a 30-yard run off right end and Right Halfback George Watkins soon made the second touchdown on a 20-yard run off left end. Day place-kicked the extra points.

Luther Thomas, quarterback, was the lone scorer in the second period on a one-yard quarterback sneak, Day again converting. Day came back in the third with an off-tackle 10-yard run for an other payoff, followed again by Watkins, who duplicated Day's tac tics for a four-yard touchdown run. The duo again tallied in the third when Watkins took a 30-yard pass from Day. Donald Boyce made a six-yard off-tackle sprint good for the fifth marker in the last period.

Alabama Blasts ON LONG RUNS Lang Races 65 Yards For Nit-tany Lions' First Score State College, Nov. 18 (JP) Penn State smashed out a 34-19 victory over the University of Maryland today, scoring in every period despite the absence of Johnny Chuckran, sidelined by injuries last week. Paced by Elwood Petchel, Easton (Pa.) tailback, the Lions rolled up enough power for five touchdowns via the ground and air, Petchel tallying two himself and passing to teammates for two more. Lang Tallies Touchdown Floyd Lang, Castle Shannon, raced 65 yards for State's first score soon after the opening kick-off.

Petrhel added another from the 4 yard line before Maryland came to life and blocked the punt that set up the first Terp score by Charley Ryan, Towanda, from th 4. Thereafter, State moved out in front and added two on drives of 36 and 62 yards with Petchel counting from the 3 on the first end passing 12 yards to End Johnny Stoken, of Aliquippa. for the second. Harry Muckle, Char leroi. booted four of five placement attempts for th winners.

Ryan Breaks Loose Ryan, running star of the losers, broke loose through tackle and ran 36 yards for the second Terp touchdown, before State added its fifth on a 70-yard drive with the score coming on a 6 yard pass from Petchel to End Bob Hicks, of Lancaster, Pa. The final Maryland touchdown came in the closing minutes when Muckle fumbled on his own 14, and Bill Greer, of Bel Air, passed 12 yards to Bill Bates, of Appieton, for the score.

Nov. 18 (JP) Duke University's Blue Devils scored touchdowns when they appeared stalled for first downs today to swamp the University of South Carolina Gamecocks. 34 to 7, and remain unbeaten in the Southern Conference. Th Gamecocks three times stared marches, but only in the second period did its sir attack pay off for a lone touchdown at the end of a 65 yard drive. Tom Davis, potent Duke fullback, opened the scoring by plunging one yard for a touchdown one minute 40 seconds after the game opened.

Minutes later Cliff Lewis passed to Gordon Carver for 38 yards, on the Gamecock 2G. Lewis dashed 22 yards to the South Carolina four and a play later Davis again lunged over. The Garni cocks' score, on a six-yard pass from Curly Kuidcll to Jim Ilunnicutt in the end zone, gave the South Carolinians a ray of hope that was immediately dissipated by Duke as Lewis ran 15 and 23 yards for touchdowns before the half ended. Harvard Ends Season With 12-6 Tufts Victory Medford, Nov. 18 (JP) Harvard's football forces wound up their informal wartime campaign today by gaining a second victory over the Tufts Jumbos by a 12-G margin.

These neighbors opened their season at Harvard Stadium, where the Crimson gained a 19-12 decision. Halfback Herb Fritts. the recent Navy V-12 trrnsfer from Dartmouth, raced off his right tackle for 47 yards and the Crimson's first touchdown. Just as the third session ended, Fullback Bob Cowen ended a 45-yard drive by smashing over from the 1-yard line. Tufts, idle for a month, also marched 45 yerds for its counter, which resulted when Quarterback Leon Granahan traveled only three feet after snagging Substitute George Feldman's 3-yard pass late in the opening half.

Aorth Carolina State Downs Richmond, 39-0 Raleigh, N. C. Nov. 18 (JP) North Carolina State, celebrating the award of three-ye; contract to its coach. Beattie Feathers, swamped the University of Richmond, 39-0, here today as the feature of a homecoming program.

Feathers thus completed one of the most successful seasou.H State has ever had, winning seven and losmg only to Wake Forest and Clemson in close battles.

Nov. 18 (Cor nell squeezed out a photo-finish, 14-13, decision over an underdog Dartmouth eleven today at Schoell-kopf Field on the trusty toe of Paul Robeson, and the touchdown sprints of Alex Drogin and Allen Dekdebrun before about 13,000 fans. Robeson added the precious extra points after a first-period score by Drogin on a 40-yard gallop and a third-quarter tally by Dekdebrun, who bulled over from the one after Francis Bud Snavely, Coach Carl bnaveiy nephew, had set it up with a 16-yard gam on a reverse play. Dartmouth outgained the Big Red on the ground and in the air, piling up 14 first downs to-11, but a missed placement by Lazarus Lewis after Darrell Braatz' second-period touchdown made the difference between a loss and a tie. Lewis made good after Braatz sped 57 yards to a second six-pointer in the same period, but the third session combi nation of Dekdebrun and Robeson overcame that temporary lead.

Drogin Breaks Away Wingback Drogin stepped away for the first score of the game on a neat piece of deception by the Cornell club, sneaking around his own left end on a weak side re verse when the Indians had been drawn to the right by Capt. Frank Accorsi's fake. The visitors, playing under Back- field Coach Milt Piepul who took the place of Head Coach Earl Brown, hospitalized by an appen dectomy, took charge in the second with Braatz doing his stuff. The former Marquette gridman, who spent 18 months overseas with the marines, touched off a 69-yard drive with a 44-yard pass to Bob Albrecht. Braatz stormed across from the 4 and then Lewis missed the vital placement.

Dartmouth had a sub running on the field when the kick was made but Cornell refused the penalty and took the play. Braatz Tallies For Indians Braatz went 57 all by himself just before the half, snake-hipping his way through the entire Big Red team after a back in motion penalty had snuffed out a 50-yard gain on a pass to Roger Hammond. The visitors appeared on the way in the opening moments of the third quarter, but lost the ball on a fumble on the Big Red 44. and after regainin," possession by Hammond's interception, the Indians missed fire again when Francis Fleming pulled down a Braatz aerial on his eight. A few minutes later a Dartmouth fumble gave Snavely's men the oval on llicHf own 41.

This time they didn't flounder. With the help of a 15-yard roughness penalty, Cornell engineered the tying touchdown, and Robeson added the winning point.

Big Paul Walker, Yale's giant all-America end prospect, must have found the g.ne he had been seeking, as the Klis turned buck North Carolina, 13-0, today in a furi ously fought intersectional battle for their seventh straight with one more to go for a perfect campaign.

Walker, Yale big boy blue, was everywhere as he set up the Bulldogs' first touchdown late in the opening period and raced across for what turned out to be the decisive tally in the finale on a beautiful executed pitch and catch For, shortly after Walker nabbed Bill Sadowski's 10-yard pass on the Tarheels' 15 and scampered over for the score, and Frank Collins converted to place Yale in front 13-0, North Carolina came back for its lone touchdown, a 3o-yard dash by Triple-Threat Bill Warren on an intercepted pass. Wilberforce Wins, 25-12 Wilbcrforce, Ohio, Nov. 18 (A1) Wilberforce came from behind today to defeat West Virginia State, 25 to 12. The Ohioans surged on top with a three-touchdown outburst in the third period. Freshman Halfback Bee) Taylor, of Washington, D.

scored twice. Miss. State tack on the second hfiinnnanc play. Hugh Morrow's placement made it 7-0. Taking Doug Colston's punt in the second period on his own 25, Johnny I lite made a weaving return to the Slate 43 where he was run out of bounds.

The Title drove to a score in short order with Lowell Tew going over from the 12. A pass, Harry Gilmer to Ralph Jones, went 14 yards to open the effort and short gains by Grant. Tew and Norwood Hodges preceded Tew's payoff dash. Morrow's kick was low, making it 13-0. In the third period, the Tide rolled 28 yards to a final score with the Maroons resisting stub bornly nil the way.

Gilmer's 53 yard quick kick rolled dead on tin State 2, leading up to the drive. Colston kicked out to Gilmer at the State 40 and he ran it back to the 28. Gilmer passed 13 yards to and then Grant took over, carrying the ball five straight times befon bucking over from the 1 yard lint on fourth down. Again Morrow missed the point, making it ID to 0. WHATEVER ELSE you may say about Pimlico's November Preak- ness, the Futurity, you got a swell run for your dough, with plenty of the good old up-and-down feel ing as the cream of the 2-year-olds traded hoofbeats for the cream of the fall purses.

The Calumet Farm's Pot O'Luck, Ben Jones trained, now takes its place among the long list of Fu turity immortals which includes such names is Platter, Count Fleet. Bimelich, Challedon and others. The Pot ran a swell race (if you were betting on it you got all the thrills of that stretch drive) and already you hear some of the harder bitten fans talking about the Pot and next year's Derby. Peculiar characters, these race followers. The real kick, however, came to those who had taken a long-shot chance on Plebiscite which finished second to Pot O'Luck by a nostril in a photo decision.

They were fit to be tied until the camera proved their eyesight had been wrong at the wire. They still got $15.80 for their place bet, which isn bad. And so the final week of the fall meet opens tomorrow at the tradition bound plant where even George Washington was once num bered among those who handed out their douah while others did the cheering. (I Big Job IN THE football sector they had almost as much trouble deciding about how Navy-Army tickets would besold (war bond or not) as they did in having the game released from Annapolis. Now the War Finance Commis sion is taking over the ticket busi ness and offhand you imagine NaVy is well satisfied to be rid of the probable headache of trying to handle this big job.

Inasmuch as the bond angle had been the main argument advanced for switching the game to a larger stadium it wouldn't have looked too good to have gone ahead and played the game with no advan tages accruing to the war-bond sale. () Doubt Stuff OX THE OTHER hand there are those who cast a skeptical eye at the bond angle. For instance: What good would it do to make the Navy-Army game a war bond contest, asked a local sports fan, while the pro and con was going on. "Anyone could buy a bond or bonds, get his tickets, sec the game, and then in 60 days dispose of the bonds. "Then don't forget scalpers could horn in on it.

too. They could purchase their bonds, ct their tickets. sell the ducats for cash, then later turn their bonds back into folding money. "These guys would reap 100 per cent, profit on their scalps. Why dont they double the ad Michigan Downs Wisconsin, 14ToO Ann Nov.

From coast to coast they talked about a game two weeks dis tant, and how to obtain tickets. The shifting of the Army-Navy game from Annapolis to Baltimore really excited followers of the pig skin who look upon this year's bat tle as one of the greatest in the long series. Final details for ticket distribu tion are being worked out. and soon the grand rush will be on for the coveted pasteboards. Nothing happened yesterday to detract from the classic.

Army came through handsomely against Penn. and Navy knocked off Purdue in convincing fashion. It would have been a shame to hide the service game this year in a small stadium. Even if the local bowl is altered to accommodate up to 70,000 fans many will be doomed to disappointment. Three or four times that number are po tential customers in the Eastern area.

It matters not it it is an ex hibition or a role of guest referee. At least 2.000 fans were turned away when Joe appeared in an exhibition two weeks ago. Tomorrow night he will return as guest referee, and it's a cinch the Bomber will be the magnet for an other big turnsut.

Louis will referee the main 10-round bout between Berlie Lanier and Popeye Woods. Wre'll pick the winner and further discuss the main bout in the customary manner tomorrow morning. ft -to -ct Answer "THIS LETTER is written in re taliation to the attacks made on Notre Dame by William Bricker," writes Florence M. Alban, 1738 East 30th street. "It is my opinion that Notre Dame, like many other outstanding colleges, plays one of the toughest schedules in collegiate football.

You could hardly call teams like Pitts burgh, Georgia Tech, Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Navy, Army, Northwestern, Iowa Pra-Flight and Great Lakes high-school competi tion. This was Notre Dame 1943 schedule, their only defeat being at the hands of Great Lakes, the score being 19-14. "Perhaps Mr. Bricker can run through those aforementioned teams and find home that he doesn't consider quite up to par. But it Is generally known that every team takes on one or two "breathers" in a season.

It stands to reason, that men can't continue to run up against first-class opposition week after week and still remain in good physical condition. If I am cor rect in my dates. Notre Daine was scheduled as a "breather" for the Army in 1913, their first game east of Pittsburgh since 1887, when football was inaugurated on the South Bend campus.
