"Rabbit" Curry Back to Gridiron rrln Statuary By Kenneth Gregoiy NASHVIUB, Term, yp) Mindful of the mighty things Ttiry "Rabbit" Curry did in football .before he went away to war and was killed on a Fronch jbattlofield. Vandcrbilt unl yeralty proposes to place a lire-size statue of him. on. Dudley athletic um. ' ' . "": Old-time gridiron tans and the newer ones, too, never fail to men tion the "Marlln Marvel' in dlacue slhg Vanderbllt's stars of other days. j?rom 1013 to 1917 the youngster from Marlln, Texas, was the Idol bl hla teammates as well as the grand stand crowds. Although he weighed only 130 pounds, he was. In the words of Coach Dan McGugin, "a very dangerous runner, aii excellent forward passer, a good tackier and .a great leader..'.' He - played varsity quarterback four years and served a captain c tlie team in 1910.' "'' jHls body is buried in France not far from the point wnere he was shot down in active combat. A lover of ex citement, "Rabbit" put aside his foot ball togs when the war drums beat and enlisted in the aviation service. He was commissioned a first lieuten ant in the 69th Aero Squadron, First Pursuit Group, arid was ordered to the front July 17, 1918. Less than a month later he was killed. Details of his death never ivere lenrned except that he flew be yond the allies' lines to give battle to tho German aero squadron known as Rlchthafen'o Circus. k;,Coach McQugin first suggested the Statue and the movement was taken up by V olub composed of many generations of Vanderbilt athletes. "Our hope," said McGugin, "Is that we may be able to provide something in the nature of a statue of 'Rabbit' it least life-size. We- had many fine men from Vanderbllt in the World war. A large number were from our athletio fields and many of these made the supreme sacrifice. It is my idea that the memorial to Curry ,FOR RENT 6-rm. mod. unturn. house. Inq.

In 1915 he was the un animous oholce for quarterback .on the mythical All-Southern team. Naked Madwoman ,1s Freed From Stable (Continued From Page One) Neighbors told police they oaw his wife arrive with him and she was then apparently in good health.

Police entered the oase late yes terday at the request of Mrs, Cer ardl's sister, Mrs. Loretta Regenstmf of the Bronx, who complained that Cerardl had repeatedly refused to al low her to .see her sister, and .al legedly threatened "to bump her off" if she tola anyone he kept her ster locked up. Prosecutor Lieutenant Nathan Al lyn said Mrs. Regenstnrf' had also Informed him that Cerardl had In sured his wife's life for 10.000.
