ACCORDING to Harry Grayson, veteran Newspaper Enterprise association sports editor, Andy Gustafson, Army line coach, brings up a pertinent point in connection with the Football Battle of the Century in Baltimore municipal stadium, Dec. 2. “Army has demonstrated beyond a vepscnghie doubt that it can score, all right,” says Gustafson, “but how many opportunities will it have against a Navy. team that hangs onto the ball all day?” The old Pittsburgh fullback recalls the 1941 game, when the Midshipmen were in -possessiofi for 13'4 minutes of the final period. Navy burns up time and the other side by moving four, six and eight yards at a crack, piles up first downs. , .., The Middies go the hard way. Army cannot afford to muff opportunities for the long- gainers that have made the athletes from the Hudson Highlands a point-a-minute outfit. , , . The Cadets will have none too many.

Purdue Found Way Through Navy Line THROUGH the herculean efforts of Babe Dimancheff, Purdue gained 177 yards on terra firma, the bulk of it through Navy's right side, but that doesn't mean one flank of the Annapolis forward wall has collapsed. The Boilermaker total exceeded the combined ground mileage of the future admirals’ seven previous opponents, four of whom wound up with a minus figure. ) » ” ” n ” ” NAVY'S LINE will be the altitude of Pike's Peak higher for Army than it was for Cecil Isbell's bdys. If Army elects to leave Navy's left side strictly alone its fleet and hard-hitting blockers and backs will find no welcoming coms mittee on the other flank. , . . Capt. Ben Chase, Gail Gillam and Johnny Martin and their replacements and backer-ups are proven,

Whitmire Is Standout at Tackle

¢ THE principal reason rivals treat Navy's' left side with such -

wholesome respect is the presence at tackle there of 5-foot-11, 215pound Don Whitmire, the All-America from Alabama in his second year at Crabtown, Whitmire is a pillbox on defense and his cross-blocking on offense massacres guards, . , .

Many Tickets Do Not Require Bonds

WHAT has reduced the volume of war bond sales for the annual clash between Army and Navy is the fact that thousands of game tickets do not require the purchase of bonds, ‘Of this total, 18,500 went to Annapolis residents who had applied successfully for seats to the game before it was transferred. . .. The rest went to the Army and Navy athletic associations, whose members were not required to buy bonds to procure tickets. Of this number four tickets were allotted to every member of

vision's first place last night by defeating the Caps, 4 to 2, before 4500 fans. The Reds opened early in the rough game at Providence in which 14 penalties were called and scored three times in the first period to gain all the margin they needed. They added another in the third period while holding the Capitals to single tallies in the first and third frames. The going was, rough all the way. Red Kane of the Caps used his stick on Rollie Forget, Reds’ left winger, and it took five stitches to close a gap in Rollie's noggin. Referee Rabbit McVeigh, skated] into some high sticking during the | first period and was slashed across the mouth. It took two stitches to mend him,
