7. Using a sextant, micrometer and a bombsight, the odds makers today nervously arrived at the conclusion that Navy is an almost infinitesimal favorite to nip Notre Dame in their big annual football fuss tomorrow afternoon in the splintery saucer known as Municipal Stadium. If you like Notre Dame, the odds bodkins vill lay you even money. If you like Navy, you've got to give the odds fellows 6 to their 5. Ching Johnson signed at Washington as hockey manager Only athlete I know who really made the screen grade was Johnny Mack Brown, Alabama's All-America A number of youngsters are writing for information on Florida baseball schools.

The only one I can honestly recommend and have personal knowledge of, is Cecil Downs All-America College, care of the West Palm Beach, baseball park. No flashy names. Just a crack crew of big league coaches, trainers, individual instruction, and a group of minor league managers on the faculty. Ninety per cent of the grads got jobs in organized ball last year and the West Palm Beach Indians won the pennant in the Florida East Coast League with the school graduates. So the outfit must have something.

One Minute Interviews: Vance: "I have only one theory about fishing. You catch them only when they are biting. I never found anything that makes any difference if they weren't. Not even if you used pompano as bait." Dan Hickey: "Because I used to be a professional boxer, my health school clients often ask me how to protect themselves in a street brawl. My advice is (a) try to talk yourself out it; if that fails, (b) run like holl." Joe O'Brien: "My mid-season All-America backfield is Busik, Navy; Westfall, Michigan; Crain, Texas; and Governali, Columbia." Babe Ruth: "My most prized records? Well they were not hitting.

They were those I set in the World Series when I pitched 29 scoreless innings for the Red Sox, 13 innings in '16 and 16 innings in '18." The price-fixing is no closer than Fair Cool Forecast the manner in which the fans will be packed in for this lone meeting of the day betweeen two unbeaten elevens. Every inch on the rows of benches banked around the huge bowl was sold three weeks ago and (55,998 fans including many gold-leafed bigwigs from Navy circles in Washington will be there to see and be seen. College football fans may well give three cheers for the weather man because he's promising fine weather for today's grid features. J. Henry Weber, meteorologist of The News, forecasts "generally fair and cool in the East and South.

Afternoon temperature around 50. Fresh breezes up to 20 miles an hour." Those breezes may affect some of the long passes and kicks but the same winds blew all day yesterday, drying out the playing fields. The weather west and north of Chicago will be cloudy and cold. Snow flurries are expected to attend the Wisconsin-Ohio State, Marquette-Detroit and Indiana-Northwestern games. Nebraska-Minnesota will be contested in a freezing temperature and strong northerly Tvind.

The Southwest will be "fair and cool," while California (What? Again?) is "fair, clear and warm." FAIR WEATHER DUE The weatherman, who earned his letter by scoring numerous upsets last Saturday, predicts fair and cooler weather. An Indian-sum- Mrs. Murphy's Chowder: At Dinty Moore's such publicity-minded gents as Lou Holtz, George Jessel, FA Sullivan, Lo-i Sobol and Dick Merrill got to talking about "the five mc-T publicized names in football," names that will live throu'. the years.

Rams, 8-1, to Wallop Pittsburgh's 'Amateurs By Jack Smith Pittsburgh, Nov. 7.

those red-Skim? ape hot Coach Jimmy Crowley quartered his all-winning gridders at nearby Shadyside Academy where they went through a light workout for the seventh and final game of this series. Football is at a humiliating low here. Except for Duquesne, which is dropping the game next season, the city's three major elevens, Carnegie Tech, Pitt and the pro-Steelers, have gained only one victory Tech's gloryless defeat of little Albright. Pitt, with five straight defeats and only three touchdowns to show for the season, has little to offer and most of the spectators tomorrow will come merely to see the Rams, one of the nation's top-ranking elevens. Only a short time ago, this Fordham-Pitt series was one of the season's outstanding spectacles.

It started in '35 and for the first three years, the teams played scoreless ties. Pitt won 24 to 13 in '38 but the next two meetings went to the Rams, 27-13 and 24-12. Those six games averaged over 50,000 in attendance and reached an all-time record high for Pittsburgh when 73,000 jammed Pitt Stadium. Whatever hope the Panthers have for victory tomorrow rests on the shoulders of "Special Delivery" Jones, a triple-threat halfback who would have been a certain all-American on past Pitt elevens. While Jones struggles to make Pitt's one man offense click, his own forward wall will be facing one of the finest backfield.

quartets the East has seen in years the high-scoring combination of Jimmy Noble, Joe Andrejco, Jimmy Blum-enstock and Steve Filipowicz. This foursome has averaged over three touchdowns per game. This will be the only chance, for Pennsylvanians to get a look at Andrejco, one of the outstanding sophomores of the year. The Hazel-ton, speed boy has averaged over 8 yards per crack and has shown plenty of eye-opening broken field running. Roundy Coughlin: "Two Minnesota regulars told me the team they fear is Iowa at Iowa City next Sat.

Those Iowa boys are easy to steam up. Badly beaten at the half last Saturday, Eddie Anderson went into the dressing room and told the boys their fathers, mothers, friends and alumni were all out there and asked if they were going to let their poor old mothers hang their heads in shame. They tore the dressing room door offhand pretty near ran Indiana out of the state Here's three sure wins, Minnesota, Texas and Cornell. My upsets are, Tulane over Alabama, Temple over Villanova, Detroit over Marquette." Health Dept: "If you ever find yourself sire to a Quiz Kid," writes John Lewellen, "you shouldn't worry too much about owl-eyes, round-shoulders, pigeon-breasts and the bughouse. Since reading, your column I got out the tape measure.

Nine year old Gerard Darrow is 57 la inches tall, weighs 77 pounds and his chest sion is a quarter-inch more than mine, dammit. Dick Williams is 4-11, weighs 92, and, like Gerard, is a miniature physical culture ad. AH the Quiz Kids are such a healthy, husky bunch we fret that they'll break their bones in rough and tumble play. In fact Jack Beckman broke his leg playing football on roller skates. The only illness we had was one night when Master Darrow ate too many chocolate sodas, and couldn't go on So, don't worry if your child does have a little better than average mind.

Scientists are pretty well agreed that the rule, not the exception, is that intelligent children are healthier than average and also more stable emotionally." rietish sun is expected, but, later in the clay, the icy fingers of a westerly wind will be around to tli.s com fort the customers. The flip-flop in the betting, which earlier this week had Notre Dame a 7-5 favorite, is mainly due to the doubtful condition of the playing field. In mid-week, at Navy oiricials' request, 10,000 square feet in the center of the field was re-sodded, but right in the midst of the work the rains came and turned the gridiron into a quagmire. FIELD BETTER NOW Double shifts of workmen and a steady sun today helped the field considerably, but Notre Dame supporters sadly shook their heads and doubted it would be in the best of (Continued on page 29, col. 1).
