here today by the fierce hard-riding cavalry of Tennessee's Volunteers Covering up in an uncertain defense the Blue Devils had to duck and stumble along the way to a 13-0 licking which dumped them headlong from a scramble for the national championship They were outmaneuvered in every brush with the enemy this young team which was to have proudly borne the banner of the Southern Conference And the tense 42000 who watched and watched for the explosions which never came saw the most sluggish and outclassed Duke team in many many years DUKES SLUGGISH On top of the game from the very start Neyland's men mobile quick-thinking opportunists never had to fight from a dangerous hole They rode around and around the hesitating Dukes brought Custer's massacre back to the gridiron It was a story of power which was slow and listless tackling which missed fire time and again and blocking which couldn't clear the way Until the third quarter when a short flash of the familiar Duke steamrolling

Knox WASHINGTON Oct 5-- Secretary Knox ordered 27- 591 navy and marine reservists into uniform today after pointedly warning the Rome-Berlin-Tokyo Axis that "if a fight is forced upon Us we shall be

strength in personnel they have not possessed since the post-World War period A navy spokesman said the call was necessary because the fleet construction program was five weeks to six monthi ahead of schedule and the training schools were unable tempor--' arily to turn out enough re emits to man the new ships The reservists called to duty have all received training which enables them to take their places aboard the ships immediately Members of the volunteer reserve consisting of specialists and men capable of being trained but who have not been required to drill were not called out because the need was only for trained men The reservists will be notified individually by mail in most cases when and where to report Shortly before he issued his or der the naval secretary said Unequivocally in an address to graduates of the National Police Acad emy that the Japanese-GermanItalian alliance "is directed at us: and that the United States would not be "intimidated- His remarks were widely interpreted as an Administration reply to yesterday's assertion by Prince Konoye the Japanese Premier that any challenge of the Rome-BerlinTokyo Axis would tumble the United States into a "fight to a
