TOMMY
LEADS NATION'S
By Gall Fowler.
Seattle, Nov. 30. (JP) Tom
Harmon, Michigan's great back
who rolled up 221 yards last
week, ranked first as the na
tion's leading ground gainer to
day, and also holds the dis
tinction of surpassing the 1938
rushing leader.
American football statistical
bureau figures showed Harmon
totaled 1,356 yards from both
passes and scrimmage for an
average of 169.5 yards per game
and 6.08 yards per play.
In eight games he carried
the ball 129 times and threw it
94 times, gaining 868 yards
on the ground and 488 in the
air. His ground gain of 868
yards passed the 1938 leader,
Len Eshmont of Fordham, who
totaled 831.
After trailing Kay Eakin, the
Arkansas traveler, for two
weeks, Harmon zoomed into
first place while Eakin was idle.
Eakin has accounted for 1,150
yards in nine games.
Kenny Washington of UCLA
moved up from sixth- to third
with 1,107 yards in eight games.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
I am tunning this announcement and paying for this advertising space
because I believe that an opportunity has arisen which may or may not last
very long, for me to do a service to the people of this city who. In the past,
have favored me with their lire and tube business.
Prices of almost everything have been going up since the first of September
when things started to happen over in Europe. The experts tell us that prices
are going to keep on going up. Now, right on top of a situation like that,
Goodrich has just announced a general reduction in the price of tires and tubes
ranging up to 14 of list prices. Even before this reduction, these Goodrich
tires were certainly real value for the money, but at these new low prices they
are a great buy.
As long as these low prices stay in effect, I can sell you a 6.00x16 Goodrich
Safety Silvertown with Life-Saver Tread that formerly listed at $15.95 for only
S13.9S and give you good allowance for your old tire too. A 6.00x18 Goodrich
Golden Ply Silvertown that formerly listed at $14.35 now sells for $12.35 and
the Goodrich Standard that was listed at $11.95 now sells for $10.45. All other
tire prices are also reduced.
You know as well as I do that tires are a necessity. If your tires are wearing
down smooth.lhey aren't safe for winter driving and you'll have to replace them
sooner or later if you want to stay on the safe side. The Goodrich testing engi
neers iell us that tires don't wear as much in the winter as lhey do In the summer,
so you can have the protection of good non-skid during the winter months and
still have plenty of mileage left for summer driving.
How long these low prices will last, I don't know any better than you do,
but when a price cut comes along in the tire line just when all other prices are
going up. I say It's time to buy tires.

Cracked in Came
Against Huskies
Eugene, Ore., Nov. 30. &)
Or. Hal Chapman and Dr. Or
ville Waller, University of
Oregon team physicians, to
day announced that Jay
Graybeal, triple-threat left
halfback of the Webfoot
team, suffered a cracked Jaw
in the Washington game at
Seattle last Thursday.
The injury, however, could
not be classed as a "break"
because the Pendleton lad is
able to eat and has apparent
ly suffered no ill effects. A
further study of x-rays taken
in Seattle will definitely de
termine the extent of the in
jury, but the doctors did not
expect to place a brace on
the Jaw. they said
