Douglas Mac- Arthur's orders against Admiral William Halsey's orders today concerning the Army-Navy foot ball game, with Halsey's orders carrying more vehemence and MacArthur's appearance more likelv to be carried out. Halsey appeared at the naval academy yesterday to present Japanese war trophies to the Midshipmen's Brigade, and took occasion to tell the Navy foot ball team to "fight like hell . . . and get that game with Army Saturday." West Point reported that MacArthur had telegraph ed his best wishes, regretting he could not see the game, and closed with a succinct "Beat Navy." Former Fullback Halsey, who played on the Navy team in the early 1000's, said it was "bunk" to say that the Army-Navy game engender ed hatreds, but he advised the players that "all friendships are forgotten during the big game. "I was the worst fullback Navy ever had," Halsey told, the Middies, but what 1 learned on tle athletic field was of Inesti mable value out tn the licet. He said the football rivalry had no effect on Army-Navy com radeship In war. Light Drills Booked "Go In there and put every thing you have Into it and get that game!" Halsey's appearance over shadowed the actual practice, which was held behind locked gates. Coach Oscar Hagberg said the secret practice was necessary because well-wishers took up too much time. It was known that the Middies worked on some "special stuff" PAINTING H. F. "Skeefs" KNIGHT Complete Service Quality Price Telephone 7431 MIRACLE WAll fINISH 0NIY $Q 9ft GAllON ACME HARDWARE CO.
