i $2 On r4 r3 Quaker City Clubs Protest Police Fee WASHINGTON, Oct. 12 (IP). The National and American baseball clubs of Philadelphia joined in an appeal to the supreme court today to set aside a city ordinance under which they would be required to pay $5.50 for each policeman and fireman assigned for duty at their ball games. The ordinance authorizes the director of public safety to estimate the number of police and firemen necessary at each game and to include the wage for them in the fee for a license each club would be required to get for each game. The clubs insisted the ordinance was an unlawful delegation of legislative power to the director of public safety.

Cissell Is Traded To Boston Red Sox BOSTON, Oct.

12 (IP). The Boston Red Sox today gained a second baseman to replace Marty McManus, their released 3 manger, by trading Lloyd Brown, one of their left handed pitchers, for Bill Cissell of the Cleveland Indians.

T. (Victoria Rstcl), P. M. $3.00 One Way Bob Fitzke, director of ath letics at Central High school for the past few years and former fullback on the Uni versity of Idaho eleven, re ceives much attention in "Kickoff," a series of articles in Liberty magazine on the private life of Ernie Nevers, all time All America football star, as told to Lowell Thomas, well known writer. III this week's article, Nevers tells, via Thomas, of a came between Stanford and Idaho in which ho engaged in a brilliant punting dnel with Fitzke.

"In the first half we exchanged punts thirteen times," the story quotes Nevers. "For fully eight minutes at one stretch we kept the ball sailing back and forth, not running a single play. Neither side scored, but in the few plays we did run I was cracked hard every time. They had concentrated on me. "'Look this over, kid, said Andy Kerr between the halves.

It was a set of figures sent down from the press box. They showed that Fitzke's Vlrlin hud averared from thirty to forty five yards, mine from forty five to sixty. "If von'd had him. Andy', I said, 'you'd a made a kicker out of "Still I couldn't get it out of mv head that Fitzke and I had clashed in a game somewhere before. Where could it have been? And in a flash it came to me.

I'd been captain of the team of Superior High in Wisconsin and we had battled LaCrosse for the state championship. Oh, yes! I remembered that game now! It had been this same Fitzke who, singlehanded. had beaten us. "We started the second half with almost an entirely new line. Idaho had to play practically the same team.

It was soon evident that they were worn out. The chance I was looking for came in the third quarter. I'd got through the line and was free. Fitzke, playing in the secondary defense, was rtt to nail me. I ran straight for him, and as he came for me I went np in the air and hurdled over him as he had done to me in that high school game when scoring that winning touchdown.

I' knew it was foul, but I didn't care. "While the referee was penalizing us, I went over Fitzke. 'Did you ever see that trick pulled He peered at me, and the hate that had been in his eyes suddenly cleared. 'For God's sake', he cried. "If it isn't the big Swede.

I thought I'd seen you some place before. And he stuck out his hand. We've been friends ever since. "I've never blamed him for what happened toward the end of this game but it was he (Fitzke) who hit me with those knees and gave me the worst cracking up I ever got in football. Three ribs were fractured.

They couldn't tell how long I'd be laid up." Don't be surprised if you should see an ad in the paper some of these days readinc as follows: "Wanted. Some competition on the gridiron. For games write Danny semenza, um Forge High school." It might sound funny to you but it's anything but that to Coach Semenza. Since his team defeated Central, 8 0, two weeks ago Old Forge has been having difficulty In booking games with the leading high school teams In this section. There is an interesting feature about Semenza's team.

At the first call for practice last month 38 youngsters reported to the popular Old Forge mentor. Danny got the surprise of his life when he looked the boys over. More than 10 of the "prospects" weighed less than 100 pounds and for this reason they were dropped from the squad at once. The squad which beat Central isn't much heavier. The line averages about 145 pounds and the backfleld a few pounds less.

149 yard rushing advance for Boston college. The Eagles were only able to work three of their sixteen forwards for a total of 44 yards and Centre completed six of its nineteen for 41 yards.
