SCALPERS REAP RICH HARVEST Speculators Obtaining High Prices For ArmyIrish Hash New York. Nov. 10—-(UP) —Speculators were reaping a rich hari vest today from football fun.) seeking tickets tor Saturday’s annual Army-Notre Dame classic in Yankee stadium. Prices already had been tripled ami further increases appeared certain. Originally tagged at $4.40, seats between the 40-yard stripes were quoted today at $12.50, sls and $17.50. The scalpers Hste dend zone seats at $8.50. Although playing second fiddle to Pitt-Nebraska game ip national importance, the traditional rivalry between Uncle Sam's 'cadets end the ifighting Irish of South Bend appeared attractive enough to draw a crowd of 80,000. The Army has won but five of. the 23 games played In this series. Notre Dame triumphed in 16 and two ended in ties. The West Point--1 ens. fresh from a 7-6 victory over ■ Harvard, will be out for their first victory since 1931 when they topped the Ramblers 12 J 0. Sln.e then tho best Gar Davidson’s team could do 1 was to hold the Irish to a 6-6 tie lin 1935. The score last year was 'Notre Dame 20, Army 6. This is Davidson's last year as pilot of the plainsmen. And he will 'send a team in tip-top shape into ; att'e. Hank Sullivan, flashy right I end. turned an Angle in the Hari vard game, but he will be ready for ' service again Saturday. i Bowing but once this year, 15-7, Ito unbeaten Yale, Army has had a i comparatively easy schedule. The cadets have beaten Clemson, Columbia. Washington of St. Louis, V. M. ; 1., and Harvard. i Except for their opening breather against Drake, the Ramblers have I run into the toughest opposition in i the country. They were held 0-0 by i Illinois and beaten 9-7 by Carnegie. I They reversed this score to trim Navy, then reached the bights in nosing Minnesota 7-6. Last week they collided with powerful Pitt and took a 21-6 shellacking. The worst factor in this loss was the flock of injuries collected. WILDCATS BESET WITH INJURIES Northwestern Badly Crippled For Tilt With Minnesota Chicago, Nov. 10— (U.PJ —Lynn Waldorf of Northwestern may have to borrow a couple of ball players from Minnesota if he hopes to put 11 able-bodied men on the field against the wrathful Gophers Saturday. He has an injury list that will put to shame the longest tale of woe heard anywhere in the country this season. Look at this: 1. Mike Calvano. star guard who helped drive the fatal hole in Minnesota’s line last October. ’ cracked a vertebrae against 1111I nois and is out for the season. I 2. Erwin Wegner, regular cen- ! ter and line backer, injured an ' ankle and will be last for a week. ! His only replacement. John Ham-1 • an, was called to Naperville, 111., | by the death of his father and may l not rejoin the squad before Saturday. 3. Fred Vanzo, blocking quart-' erbaek and hero of Northwestern’s stunning victory over Minnesota in 1936. took a terrific battering | against Purdue. Ohio State and I fllinois. He has an injured ankle! I apd shojjlder. i 4. Nick Conteas, reserve quart-1 erbaek. pulled up with a pair of Charley horses. (Waldorf may have to use Joe Rose, who hasn’t played a lick this year.) I 5. Guards Don Guritz and Dick Wells were hit so hard last week they may be lost for the week. In addition. Capt. Don Heap, ace bail carrier, and Johnny Kovatch. a great defensive end and distinct* attack threat on end-around plays, also are suffering from that new ailment Northwestern hadn’t seen for many a year—“llllni bumps.” Plenty of teams have gone into

games on crutches and emerged I victorious, but Northwestern ap-' patently has nothing in its favor.! The Wildcats are steaming downhill at a rapid rate — and , they weren’t as good at the start as in 1936. They are riddled by I injury. Their morale, especially I after losing to Illinois which didn’t i figure to win unless you know Bob Zuppke. is low. Minnesota, however, has everything. The Gophers will work the revenge angle to death, for they can lay all their present trouble! at Northwestern’s door. The Wildcats were the first to break through that icy poise that rolled over 21 straight opponents. It’s homecoming at Minnesota. A sellout crowd of 64.000 will scream for Wildcat scalps. A | brilliant new forward passer —; Sophomore Harold. Van Every — will lead a sparkling new aerial j attack that scored once against Notre Dame and crushed lowa, 35 to 10.

Two launches were lowered from the gunboat and sailers quickly jumped down into them. Chinese machine gunners opened fire but the launches kept on up to the boom where the Japanese tried to cut the anchor of a big boat in the center. They hoped the boat would drift down stream but it did not and they began to try to blow it up. The two navy launches left the boom and nine Japanese planes began to bomb it.
