NEW YORK, Nov. 9 (Be
tween now and New-Year's Day
a lot of folks who are promoting
football games to sell war bonds
and for other worthy causes, are
bound to be disappointed . . .
The biggest attraction, of course,
would be to shift the Army-Navy
game to a big city but that won't
happen . . V Next" best Iikelya
would be another.kind-of Army.:
Navy tussle, say, Randolph field
against Bainbridge, but chances
are that won't be arranged, eith
er .. . Everybody wants Ran
dolph but the word is that after
the December 10 game with the
Fourth Air Force, the Texas
Fliers will be waiting for bowl
lightning to strike . . . And the
navy teams will have, difficulty
getting permission 'to play such
proposed tilts as Bainbridge
Camp Peary (return match sched
uled November 25) at Baltimore
and Fort Pierce, Fla., Amphibs
vs. Chicago Bears at Miami.

noni. desoite last week's loss,
was loud in his praise of his
team.
"But for a few tough breaks,
we could very easily have come
out on top," Giannoni said.
Although greatly outweighed
in every game they have played
on their rugged schedule, the
Skymasters have given a good
account of themselves, and what
they have lacked in weight and
experience they have more than
made up for with gameness.
They go into their invasion of
the marine camp at full
strength, with the exception of
their regular back, Lt. Robert
H. Lester, who sustained a frac
tured collarbone in last week's
contest.
-.. Giannoni announced that only
a few changes will be made in
his starting lineup. At right
half will be Sgt. Fred "Monk"
Meyers, former Xavier college
luminary around whom the Sky
master offensive game is built.
His running mate at the other
halfback position, remains open
in view of Lt. Lester's injury.
However, Giannoni will an
nounce a replacement for Les
ter after Wednesday's scrim
mage. The light forward line of the
Skymasters receiver especial
credit from Coach Giannoni for
their stellar work in the Tono-
pah meeting. It was largely due
to the hard charging of these
linemen and the amazing pass
interceDtion ability of Meyers,
that the AIC outfit outplayed
Tonopah in the entire second
half.

Chicago Catcher
Returns to Fold
CHICAGO. Nov. 9 UP)
Catcher Thomoson (Mickey) Liv
ingston, who came to the Chi
cago Cubs late in 1943 and push
ed Clyde McCullough out of his
regular job but was in military
service last season, says he'll be
back in 1945 to take over as the
club's No. 1 receiver.
Jim Gallagher, Cubs' general
manager, said Livingston, in a
letter from Newberry, S. C, ad
vised him he had received a
medical discharge from the
army and was all set for the
1945 baseball season.
Gallagher, who in his search
for catching talent since Mick
ey s entrance into the army late
in1 1943, was elated over the
news and was confident his re
turn would bolster the club's
most glaring weakness and
greatly enhance its pennant
chances. The Cubs finished in
fourth place in 1944.
