Rhode Ialsnd National Guardsmen tonight clamped martial law on wealthy Narragansett Rsce Track and announced that Jov. Robert E. Quinn edict against opening of the fall meeting tomorrow be carried out to the lettft. With bayonet gleaming in the light of a full moon at the nearly-empty track. Guardsmen paced their beat virtually in solitude after a day spent in turning away curious thottssnds.

Meanwhile the State awaited the result of an open letter Harry K. Curvin. Paw-tucket director of public safety, aaid he wrote to the governor threatening "impeachment. Curvin letter waa published In an extra edition of the Providence-Rtar-Tribune as Guardsmen took up their pot the track. Invoke Constitution The Tawtucket official, who also is Democratic majority leader in the Rhode Island House, warned the governor In the letter "if you carry out your threat and Inflict the martial law upon the peace-loving people of Tawtucket and the town of East Providence in willful violation of the constitution and laws of the State and In de-fiance of the repeated decisions of the Supreme Court of the State." he would Invoke an article of the Stste constitution "and place you under Impeachment charges forthwith." He said he wss sending the letter to every member of the House.

Curvin declsred thst the civil suthorltie of Pa-lucket were "able to handle any situation which may arise Monday, Oct. lth" Gov.

Dean led the Guardsmen to the track and placed Col. Earl C. Webster In command. Dean declared the track a "no man land for court order." Col. Webster In a pre conference said that he "found no state of Insurrection" or "violence" at the track but insisted there would be no racing there tombrrow.

He said that his men were equipped with gas and riot sticks and with ammunition for their rifles In an emergency and that they were specially trained in riot duty. The colonel said 300 men were mobilized. The troops moved In at a. m. today after the Governor proclamation came as a new step; to shut down the track owned by I Walter E.

Regis Monahan junior Lion, contributed a 20-yard goal from placement.

The Lions registered three points after touchdowns. Only In the third period, with several alternates in the Detroit line-up, did Brooklyn threaten to score. Relno Nori, former Lion half pint back, passed and ran his team 57 yarda to the Lion 7. The Lions closed in forcing a pass. It waa this pass thst Huffman intercepted to make his long dash.

Keep Pa-e with Bears The victory was Detroit fourth in five starts, snd kept the Lions at the heels of the Chicago Bears for top honors In the West Division. The victory also showed thst the Lions, on their heels in their last two starts sgslnst the Packer snd the Pittsburgh eleven. were bark on their toes. Running play were augmented by passes that clicked and an alert Lion see-ondsry either recovered fumbles or Intercepted Dodger passe to stsrt touchdown drives. The victory further Indlcsted that the Lions, today without the full time sen-ices of Lloyd Card-well and Frank Christiansen, backs, sre ready to contend with the mighty Bears in Chicago next Sundsy.

This gsme will have considerable bearing on the West Division championship. Starts In Hurry The Lions opened their gsme sgsinst Totsy men with a fierce 4fl-yard thrust to the Brooklyn four. But the Dutchman men lost the ball on downs. With a wind that aided In punt exchanges, Clsrk soon had the ball at mid-field. He loosed Caddel on what looked like his famed reverse sweep.

Instead. Caddel cut inside the Dodg er right tsckle to zig f.sg through for 15 yards snd a broken field then speed away for a touchdown. It was a 47-ysrd run. The Dutchman drop kicked the point, his only score of the game. Iee Stokes, newest Lion renter, pounced on a Manlarl fumble early in the second period on tne iwviger 21 to pave the way for Mnnahan i plsre kick which followed sfter three plays.

The Dutchman took himself out of the game and did not return. No Mopping Kids It waa obvious that he had become assured that Potsy men couldn't get those point back. Dutch is no cosch to pile up points willingly on an old friend. But the Lion coach couldn't stop his kids.

With the Heat On gophers Open Up THEREAFTER the team from the Told Country turned on the heat. As far ss value is concerned few teams ever rashed In so completely on forward passes ss the Gophers did last haturday. One pass, to Spadac-cini, resulted in a touchdown and the other Minnesota forward put Minnesota right there where it could rsm home touchdowns. All week Klpke had stressed forward pass defense. All week Kipke had drilled his hurler at Jacking a receiver, and protection for his passers.

There was snsp and fire to the Michigan drills. The men gave every impression Ihst they were ready for any Big Ten foe. Including Minnesota. But when Minnesota had finished with Michigan, the Gophers had JO interception chalked up sgslnst the Wolverine pass defense in the last two gsmes. Those intercepted passes contributed much to the Michigan rout.

Yntt no Tloor' Cnrr Ends in Kentucky By Doc Hoist Clyde M. Hatter, a brilliant left-handed Detroit Tiger farm property pitcher, died suddenly Sunday afternoon near Yosemite, hi home, as he talked with his fsther at the wheel of the family automobile.

Hatter upptnrni to Isrk confidence In himself. Knowledge that he was to pitch a following day would upset him. Manager Krert Haney of the Mud Hens held Halter in high regard snd did everything his power to sid him to control his highly nervous condition.

At one time during the past Haney did not tell Hatter he time. Th scheme worked for two games. Clyde turned In a two-hitter and won a second gsme. Then Hatter began to worry continuously and a few day later deserted the club. Had Always Been Calm Haney finally induced Hatter to rejoin the Mud Hens and the To- club staged a last-minuta finish that almost dumped the Columbus Red Birds from first place.

Hatter took part in tha lightning finish but became 111 a the playoffs started. His popularity in Milwaukee was attested by the fact that when it wsa announced that Hatter was to pitch for Toledo In the opening playoff game, a large crowd of Hatter fans turned out to cheer him. only to discover that CHfle was ill in hotel, unable to work tn the series. Hatter's nervous condition was a deep mystery to his friends. Until he en-led the season st Milwaukee in lP he was known a on his calmness.

A partial record of Farkas' achievements in his three seasons at U. of D. supplies the answers. Jin to Duquesne Farkas has scored all the points registered by his team against Duquesne University since he has been a member of the varsity. As a sophomore he msde a loner sweep round the Duquesne right end for the Titans' touchdown in a 13 to 7 defeat.

Last year he scored two touchdowns sgainst Duquesne as Detroit won. to 7. Thoe were the only touchdowns registered during the regular season against the powerful Raider team which whipped mighty Pittsburgh. Rice, Marquette and Carnegie Terh among others. Farkas alone crossed the Duquesne goal line.

He is the same Farkas who last year scored three touchdown against Chick Meehan'a huge Manhattan team, who raced 55 yard for one score after taking a pass in his huge hands, who raced 40 yard to the five-yard line before plunging; over for another score and who took another short pas for a touchdown.
