GRID GIANTS OUT
OF TROY LINEUP
J
Too Many Men On Squad
Last Year That Couldn't
Carry Weight Line Will
Be Given Main Attention
By PAUL ZIMMERMAN
AMocioteil Press Hports Writer
LOS ANGELES, Sept. . (AP) Orld
giants are out at the University of
Southern California thli year.
That was the emphatic announce
ment of Coach Howard Jones today
a he troubled over the task of sal
vaging from the 1034 season's wreck
age material for the coming season.
"We had too many men on the
team last year." eald Troy s head man
sadly, "who couldn't handle their
weight. If I wasn't convinced before
I am now, that size doesn't deter
mine strength of a football player.
"Of course, a big man who can
handle himself Is all right bov they
ere scarce, while we saw plenty of
players weighing ns to 1B0 pounds
last year who could pute a 300 poun
der out of the play."
So the order has gone out from
the Trojan grid battlements to reduce
and the Incoming roporta are favor
able to Coach Jones,
Troy's mentor plans no drastic
changes In his football setup to bring
Mi team back Into Its winning stride,
He Is going to give the lino, which
was so weak a year ago, concentrated
personal attention, convinced that If
the forwards function proporly both
the offense and defense will pretty
well take care of Itself.
"Open up the offense and throw
laterals? Sure," he said, "If we can
find players capable of handling
them. But my team la not going to
throw the ball around a lot because
It la the popular thing to do and have
the passes fall.
"Ambition on the part of ths play
ers Is our element of hope."

happy that a lifetime dream of being
the first to drive an automobile 300

of the American Automobile associa

made In the computation of hiaapeed.
A m la-read f inure on the timing
tape brought about the error, In
cited of the 299.878 mile pr hour

credited with, it vu discovered he
had made a. two way run over a

EVENT TO!
What the fans have been watting
for another appearance of Toots
Estea of Honolulu Is lined up for
the main event of the grappling card
tomorrow night at the Armory, when
the popular, speedy Islander meets
Rocky Brook, Canadian wrestler who
Is famous for his strength.
The question of whether muscle la
better than speed will be decided
when those two big -time grapple rs
get together, and the fans are won
dering how the flashy Hawaiian cham
pion will look whon he's up against
a man who Is said to be able to walk
up a ladder with a piano atrappid
ocroaa his back.
If Estes pulls the same type of mat
wizardry that he flashed last week
In whipping Pete Belcoatro, coast
Junior heavyweight champion, the
Canadian strongman will at leaat
have a busy evening. The clean-cut
Honolulu chap will 'be outweighed 10
or 30 pounds by the northerner, but
figures thf.t lie cen make up the dif
ference by using some of the freak
holds with which he wowed the popu
lace last week, such as his spectacu
lar slingshot flying tackle.
Joe Hubka of Nebraska and Danny
3a vie h of Salt Lake City, who also
went over decidedly In his Initial bout
here last week, will meet to decide
which Is the better meatier In the
other half of the, main event-
flavlch, who has twice been given
honorable mention for all-Amerlcm
football teams and Is one of the beat
grid stars ever turned ovit of the Uni
versity of Utah, defeated Hubka In
Portland recontly, and Hubka's win
last week puts them on a par. Both
are determined to come out on top,
with a grudge element entering the
bout aa a result of the close, hard
contest last week.

The heaviest loss of life, rescuers
reported, was on upper and lower

Key Largo,
Camps Demolished
Two of the three government
camps on the Matecumbe keys, where
war veterans are engaged In building
a highway down the keys to Key
West, were reported completely de
molished. A rescue party out of Miami, led
by Jack Combs, an undertaker as
signed to organize identification of
the dead, reported between 400 and
500 persons were killed In this area.
Many of those who died on Mate
cumbe key were crushed In the col
lapse or the Snake Creek hotel, which
was being used as a hospital at the
camp.
Among these was Dr. E. C. Main,
medical director of the camp. .
The word of Dr. Main's death was
brought to the mainland by Dr. Laa
ser Alexander, a mpdial examiner
at the camp who escaped death In
the collapse of the hotel.
Horror, Described
Graphically, Dr. Alexander des
cribed tho Monday night of horror:
"I wns at Snake Creek hotel, which
was used as a hospital. This collapsed
about 10 p. m., with many persons
under the ruins. There were about 40
patients In this building, about half
of Jjiem women and children." Out of
this number, there were only seven
men and three or four of the women
&aved.
"When the building toppled over. I
was able to walk out through a hole
In the wall Into about three or four
feet of water filled with floating tim
bers and debris. The wind was about
50 or 60 miles an hour and carried
flying timbers that caused most of
the casualties.
"When we found the water still risk
ing, we mado our way to the rail
road track. We dug holes into the
earth under the cross ties so we could
protect our heads from the flying de
bris. This was the only way we could
keep our brains from being crushed
out. We stayed on the ralroad track
until 3 a. m. (Tuesday) as that was
the only place above the water.
"At daybreak Tuesday, we found a
tank car full of water which offered
refuge."
Alii Ill, Injured

The answer is, "Not a thing." Rue

showing at the Jackson County fair
grounds, under the auspices of Htllah
Shrine Patrol, la shown taking a
worm's eye view of the altuaclou be

The skipper at the left Is Everett
Conway, the celebrated one-armed
trap drummer and director of the
circus band. These two fellows play
a mighty fine game of golf, playing
the course in the 80s for IB holes.
"The veterans camps, themselves,
are literally flat. The lumber that
went Into building them la i,re?n

The hurricane, after raging across
the keys, swerved to the north In the
Oulf of Mexico and endangered cities
on the Florida west coast.
The full Intensity of the hurricane,
In this area, was looked for around
Cedar Key, a dot of land in the gulf
90 miles north of St. Petersburg, con
nected with the mainland only by a
i
I narrow causeway. I
j Dvat'iinle Vllluge
I Many of the 1200 residents of Cedar
i Key began evacuating the village
i when the word of the approaching
hurricane reached them. The school
and other substantial buildings were
thrown open as shelters. Most of the i
homes In Cedar Key are of flimsy, j
wooden construction. j
With the tides rising and the wat- ,
crs raging about St. Petersburg. In
Tnmpa Bay and up the west coast,
the hurrlcr.no flags were flown all
over the area. Weather officials said
the effects of the hurricane would be
felt up into Oeorgla. Part of the
storm was reported swinging back to
tho east, into the northern part of
Florida,
With oorrununicotlon lines, down In
many sections, reports from the west
coapt were meagre. There were no
j reports, however, of loss of life.

A former army aviator, - Factsau,
saw his wife, two daughters and two
grandchildren killed. He expressed
doubt anyone else in camp 5 survived,
because of lack of shelter.
"Upon hearing the storm warnings"
the world war veteran said, "I started
out in an automobile from my home
half way between camp 5 and camp 3
with my wife. Frieda, my two daugh
ters, Marie Madsen and Dorothy Ves
ter, and my t;wo grand children, Ray
Mad sen and Dorothy Vester.
After traveling througlf Increasing
winds and over wreckage -strewn roads
for 18 miles on a flat tire, we reached
camp No. 1 and were placed In a
building with a lot of drunks who
kept up a continual fuss until quieted
by' officers.
Form Human Chain
"The building where we ware
placed in lasted only an hour. I tried
to make a human chain from the
building to the railroad track to get
all the women and children to safety,
but I was washed into the gulf by a
high wave. I swam back as quickly
as I could and reached shore Just
as the hospital (the Snake Creek
hotel) collapsed. I heard my wife
calling my name but I was not able
to get to her In time. They Were all
killed under the ruins."
The Florida East coast railway,
linking the mainland with Key West,
traversing the Keys, was a mass or
twisted wreckage ond broken at
many' places by the force of the
hurricane.
The highway beln constructed by
the veterans was washed Into bits
of concrete in many places.
A rescue train, .dispatched Monday
into the camps to bring back the
veterans after the storm warning
was sounded, was a mass of wreck
age. There was no word from any
of the crew of the train and res

cuers feared all aboard the train
were killed.
The train passed through the
Camp No. 1, on Upper Matecumbe.
The crew Intended to pick up the
veterans here on the route back.
The train struck a washout and fcll
the cars were overturned.
One of the first effort of rescuers
was to build a bridge across from
the southern tip of Key Largo to
Upper Matecumbe key to get trucks,
loaded with national guardsmen and
volunteers and medical supplies. Into
the worst stricken areas.
Aid Dispatched.
From Washington, officials of the
government ordered naval c-alt and
coast guard cutters to lend pos
sible aid. The national guardsmen
were dispatched by Governor Dave
Sholtz.
The government 'relief administra
tion, in charge of the government
camps on the keys, said some 6U0
veterans many of them members of
the bonus march to Washington, who
were shipped down to the keys by
the relief bureau were at work on
the coastal highway.
At least 100, however, were on
leave In Miami when the hurricane
broke.
Relief officials in Washington, on
the basis of early reports, estimated
150 veterans had been killed.
One of the first rescue expeditions
to leave Miami today was aboard
the 72-foot speed cruiser Xyronlc,
owned by Byron Miller of New York.
It was destined to serve as a Red
Cross medical station off the keys.
Planes Aid Red Cross.
Cooperating with ccast guardsmen
!n dispatching airplanes over the
devastated area was the Pan-American
airways. All its planes In Miami
were placed at the disposal of the
Red Cross and other rescue agencies
Another relief train quickly was
mobilized to aid In the evacuation
of the keys and to carry supplies.
Huge gangs of employes were set
to work repairing the tracks. Bb
cars were loaded with bags of sand
and gravel. They will be used to
bolster weakened grades and cause
ways. Overhead, coast guard planes gave
information of the condition ahead.
