Impressions and Reflections One of the best cracks coming out of the Rose Bowl discussion says that the reason the Big Ten have a rigid rule againat going to the game is that it would get them a late start for spring football practice. Johnny Harris, the hockey boss, says that attendance at the first four games his club has played here this year has been larger than at the first nine games by two local clubs last year. The locals play Springfield here tonight at the Garden. This is not an advertisement.

It comes from the fact that we drew a slight reminder from our troop com- mander, Carrick Boy Scouts, about that daily good deed. Mr. Harris tells us he is a member of the Crafton branch. He said he joined to learn pathfinding so he could get his proper seat at the local fights. Speaking of fights, we have been receiving numerous complaints from the trade that Brother Jake Mintz is developing the habit'of shutting down the dollar seat sale while there are $1 seats on hand, thus forcing the customers to adopt either of two irksome courses: Dip down for another dollar or go home.

We trust, if Brother Mintz has been guilty of a practice that would never get by at Eton or Oxford, he will desist. A lot of our fans go to boxing with the exact price of the street car ride and a general admission seat. It is no fun to make the trip in vain. It is especially miserable if the fans know that there is still parking space in the bleachers, with the sale shut off. Brother Mintz will now write on the blackboard 100 times A seat for every sardine.

The request was bland and breathed a certain innocence that we, for once, are going to comply, although it is against common practice and policy. The request asked that we use the following note in the column. The note reads: "The North Braddock Bucks basket ball team is booking games with teams in the 16 and 18-year class. Write Elmer Clugston, 1625 Grandview avenue, North Braddock, or call Valley 51 9-J and ask for Harry between 5 and 6 --o'clock." The request for games caused us to ruminate a little. "Elmer probably tends to only the written responses, while Harry, evidently" prefers to be partly anonymous, deals with the telephone trade exclusively.

Probably, they get together later in the evening and compare notes. We have to also picture Harry as pretty well up to his neck in details about the team, else why the drastic provision that he will be available only between 5 and 6 p. m. Probably, Harry is pretty busy right after school and just about makes it home in time for dinner around 5 what with practicing and playing. Then he must hike out to meet the gang as soon as he finishes the meal, so what better arrangement than to confine the calls to the hour he is home for dinner.

Perhaps we used the notice because we liked the name of the team the North Braddock Bucks. There is a kind of ring to that name.

Charles C. Mc Govern, former chairman of the county commissioners, has been a member of the vot-? ing squad. That there would have been several recounts, after such a close vote, i3 most certain. It is said of the colonel that when he was fighting his way into office he got so used to demanding a recount of the votes that once when he was told the car he bought had four wheel brakes he said: "I hear there's only three recount."

3. Discouraged but not ready to quit because they failed to engineer any swaps at Milwaukee, Bill Benswanger, Sam Watters and Pie Traynor of the Pirates tonight dismissed baseball from their worries and relaxed after their arrival in this town. Benswanger went out to call on relatives while Sam and Pie saw a picture. Sam arrived here today from a visit in Adrian, where he sat with the trustees of Adrian College and also was made chairman of the alumni committee appointed for a countrywide drive to increase the endowment fund by half a million dollars. Bucs After Mungo.

Traynor is one of four pilots who would like to take a chance at Van Lingle Mungo of the Brooklyn club who says he will not report to the Dodgers again as long as Burleigh Grimes holds the reins. Burleigh makes no denial that he feels the same way about it, but he grasps the significance of offers from New York, St. Louis, Chicago and Pittsburgh which means that the club that procures the temperamental fire-ball artist must bid in big figures. Grimes wants Demaree who is not to be swapped according to Charley Grimm of the Cubs who refused to listen when Traynor demanded this crack outfielder in a proposition to trade Arky Vaughan and three or four other Buccos to Chicago for Shortstop Billy Jurges. At any rate it is a good guess that some spirited bidding will develop in Chicago while the mag- 'SIPPI STATE IN TOP FORM FOR DUQUESNE Seeking Revenge For Close Defeat Last January 1.

STATE COLLEGE, Dec. 3. (JP) Each intent on victory, the football teams of Mississippi State College and Duquesne University stood ready today to resume gridiron relations begun in Miami's Orange Bowl last New Year's Day. The Night Riders of Coach John (Little Clipper) Smith took up headquarters at West Point, 12 miles, from here at noon today, and came here by bus for a light drill on Scott Field late this afternoon. Mississippi at Peak.

Coaches of the State College Maroons say their charges are in top shape for the invaders who are making their debut on a Mississippi gridiron. And these coaches say the Maroons must be much better than they have been in previous games to stymie the passing and running attacks of the Dukes, w-ho will outweigh them about 15 pounds per man. It is no secret here that the Maroons, who have had an unimpressive season and are now without a head coach, are out to avenge the 12-13 setback the Dukes handed them in the closing minute of the Orange Bowl game. But sports writers give the Maroons only an outside chance to turn back the powerhouse of the Night Riders, whose Orange Bowl team, with the exception of Mike Basrak, is intact for the 1937 setto. Crowd of 15,000 Likely.

The Maroons, on the other hand, will offer but four of the lineup that opened against the Dukes. This, however, is discarded by the Maroons, who are bolstered by their 9-7 victory over Mississippi, their traditional rival, last Thursday, when the Dukes pounded out a telling victory over Detroit. Clear cool weather has prevailed this week and the field is fast and an ideal setting for the game, expected to draw 15,000 fans to this little town. The game starts at 2 o'clock Central Standard time. The lineup: MISS.

It is a very hard thing to dispose of.

We have had IS invitations so early in the season to deer dinners tendered by frantic hunters who cannot seem to get rid of the meat. One hunter sent his kill to a hospital as a last resort and the patients immediately went on a hunger strike, saying if they didn't get butcher shop meat, they'd pick up their beds and walk out. Deer meat is ns dry as the Anti-Saloon League. To overcome this roast beef gravy is poured over it, but it would be much simpler to pour the roast beef gravy over roast beef, it seems to If we could be guaranteed we would not have to lug a deer vhome with us and have to get rid of the meat we'd be glad to go on a deer hunt. Although no official announcement has as yet been made, it is reliably reported that the sixth annual Pennsylvania state women's golf championship tournament will be staged at the Pittsburgh Field Club next season.

The classic, which has been held here on only one other occasion, likely will be staged some time in September. Betty Abemethy, of Oakmont, won the 1937 title at Scranton by heating- Mrs. W. G. Boggs, of Stanton Heights, in the final rouYid.

Homan, chairman of the Sun Bowl football committee, announced. The Mountaineers won seven, lost only to Pitt and tied Georgetown in their regular season which ended Thanksgiving Day. They thus achieved their best record in a dozen years to give Marshall (Little Sleepy) Glenn a rousing sendoff in his first term as head coach. Athletic Director Harry A. Stans-bury, in confirming West Virginia's selection, disclosed that the Mountaineers also had been approached by representatives of Phoenix, for a New Year's Day game there.

Arrangements for the Mountaineers' trek westward were incomplete tonight, but Stansbury said it would not be necessary for the players to miss any classes in order to make the trip. Coach Glenn said his squad would resume practice Monday. In the two previous bowl games Hardin-Simmons tied with New Mexico State 14-14 and returned last Year's Day to beat Texas Mines. 31-6. fContinucd on Page 20) Nearly every deer season out in Sharpsburg at a club known as the Guyasuta Hunting and Fishing Club, a deer dinner is given.

The club, we believe, was founded by an old Indian chief of sociable nature who roamed the valley out that way long ago. The club is not in its orig-inal home. The tent long ago gave way to a brick establishment.

But after the deer dinner the boys begin talking again about next year's hunt and the big deer feed and this has been going on ever since we were tapped for Guyasuta.

In the absence of James Hagan, athletic director, who is in Chicago, an attache of his office issued the following official statement. "We sincerely doubt that another school is trying to influence any of our freshmen players to leave Pitt and we scout the story that an individual has been lurking near the campus, contacting the boys.

(However, if such be the case, It Is a matter for the other school and the boys they contact to settle. We would not interfere. "If any other institution has made offers to members of our freshman squad it is news to us. However, if any of the boys desire to go elsewhere, that is their privilege. We will be sorry to lose them, of course.

Football players working on the campus are employed by the department of buildings and grounds. The athletic department makes no check on the hours of employment and so far has received no complaint from any individual.
