To 42-7 Win
By JERRY LISKA
CHICAGO, Nov. 14 (P) Al
though Washington's Redskins
ore wur-whooping ahead at the
moment, the eastern division
race of the waning Nutional
Football league campaign ap
pears headed for a torrid drive
towards the championship wire.
Unlike the western section In
which Green Bay virtually sew
ed up divisional honors Sun
day as peerless Don Huison
steered the Puckers to a 42-7 win
over Cleveland, tho eastern cir
cuit still has a thrcc-club scrap
sputtering.
The Redskins eased out of a
first-place tie with Philadelphia
bv riillvimr for a 10-0 triumph
over Brooklyn while the Eagles
were stymied by the third-place
New York Giants, 21-21. for
their second deadlock of the sca-J
son. That gave tnc tjKins live
victories against one tic, a 31-31
affair with the Eagles, and drop
ped Philadelphia Into second
with a four won, twice-tied rec
ord. But the honeymoon is over for
Washington which next Sunday
takes on the Eagles in a show
down battle at the nation's capi
tal and must face New York
twice before the regular season
ends early next month.

vey of the city's caddy-bar links.
"Caddies?" said the boys.
"Gosh, yes, we can get 'em. But
easy. We'll put a piece in next
week's paper."
The volunteering lads who'll
turn out for the November 23
28 open aren't too expert. In
fact, some never caddicd before;
uud Hudson's invited all 150 to
dinner tomorrow night to listen
to Portland pros explain how to
do it.
But it's better,' figures Hud
son, than making the entrants
carry, their own. "I've talked
with some of the country's lead
ing professionals," he said.
"And they don't expect prewar
caddies. They'll be thankful
just to have some youngster to
carry the clubs for them.".

He fights like Arturo Godoy of

Luis AngeJ Firpo of the Argen

he'll hit the heights reached by
those other "south of the bor

We speak of Fernando (The

who last night blasted out a 10
round decision over , Laurlent
Bouchard of Montreal, Canada,
at Laurel Gardens before a
crowd of about 2500 which con
tributed a gate of $3400.
The mighty one, fighting
from the famed Godoy half
crouch and throwing the same
overhand ' right which was the
best weapon of the Chile clout
er who went 23 rounds with
Joe Louis before being knocked
out, displayed a rugged ability
to take it out in the 10 heats
against the dominion scrapper.
He started slowly, after more
than a year out of the ring, but
in the late stanzas he was a
wildcat and in the tenth he had
the Canadian on the floor for
a short count. At the finish both
of Bouchard's eyes were al
most closed, and Menichelli bad
a cut over his left optic, to bear
witness to the heavy punching.
The ringside concensus was
that "there is a pretty tough
hombre, that Menichelli, and
he'll give a lot of the tug boys
trouble."

in today's Assocluted Press poll.
Army, with 77 first place votes
out of a possible 106, collected
935 points. Navy, beaten by
Norm Carolina rrc-rngnt and
Georgia Tech in early season
games, is second with five first-
fnace nominations and 7au tai

for tho service division with 15
tickets for the No. 1 spot and 770
points. In the over-all poll,
Army ranks as the top team but
the Kandolpt) field squad moved
to second from their fourth place
berth a week ago.
For the first time since Octo
ber 12, 1942, Notre Dame is not
in the top 10 teams in the coun
try, dropping to eleventh place
following their 59 to 0 setback
by Army.
Notre Dame is among the elite,
however, in the division reserved

Drive to Shift
Army-Navy Game
To City Renewed
ANNAPOLIS, Md., Nov. 14
W) The Army-Navy game De
cember 2 is a sell-out. Capt. C.
O. Humphreys, navy director
of athletics, broke the news when
he announced that "we have
more than 19,000 applications
and only 18,756 seats in Thomp
son stadium," even as a renewed
drive to shift the game to a big
city stadium got under way in
Washington.
On a strictly population basis
although the rules say only
residents of Annapolis and those
living within a 10-mile radius
of Maryland's state capitol can
attend 19,000 applications
would mean that almost every
man, woman and child in the
area, regardless of age and
physical condition, had applied.
Henry J. Tarantino, city coun
sel, estimated in 1942 that there
were 14,000 Annapolitans and
6000 nearby who could qualify.
Quarterback
Club Holds
Election
Finol Meeting of Year Held
Monday; K. A. Moore New
President of Organization
The final meeting of the year
for the Quarterback club was
held Monday noon at the Willard
with all the "old reliables" pre
sent. An election of officers for
next year was held and Marble
Cook, Pelican coach, gave a brief
dissertation.
Cook stated that he looked
forward to a fine varsity ball
team next season with some of
I his regulars back and a strong
rvuucai oaicn coming up.
He also took warrp exception
to Johnny Foster's disparage
ment of the T formation and his
prediction that Bend would beat
Klamath by a 19-6 score in the
Guest Department of the Mid
field, column.
Cook suggested that Foster
follow football a bit more close
ly before sticking his neck out
and expressed a desire to meet
the gentleman.
Cook, himself, flatly predicted
that Medford would now win the
state championship after Roose
velt's upset of Grant in district
four. Medford has the type of
eleven to down Roosevelt, but
would not have fared very well
against Grant, according to Cook.
He ended by expressing his
gratitude and the team's for the
support that they had received
all season from the local Quar
terbackers. Bill Abbey, Harold
Wirth and Roger Vanderhoff,
high school football players,
were brought along by Cook as
guests of the club.
In the absence of Major Clyde
Roberts, Captains James Higgins
and Roy Walters represented the
Marine Barracks' team.
Higgins expressed himself as
being satisfied with the improve
ment of the Leatherneck eleven
as the season progressed and
added a wish to meet the Califor
nia Ramblers and the Willamette
Navycats, both of whom defeat
ed the marines early in the sea
son, again on the gridiron and
said he. was confident that the
marine eleven would emerge on
the long end of the score.
This is impossible, however,
and with' the inability of the
Fairfield-Suisun Skymasters to
show up, the marines end the
season with two wins, two losses
and one tie. v
Walters next expressed his ap
preciation and that of the whole
marine squad for the excellent
support of the Quarterback club
all year.

Veitch Breaks
Leg in Final
Wildcat Tilt
The Wildcats won their final
football game of the season Mon
day by blasting Henley 25-7, but
their fine victory was over
shadowed by a regrettable ac
cident when Gordon Veitch, right
halfback, broke his leg while
being tackled in the second quar
ter. Both bones in Veitch'j left
leg were broken, but he is re
ported to be resting comfortably
in Hillside hospital and may bo
returned to his home soon.
After this incident occurred
the Wildcats really went on the
prowl and the Henley eleven
never had a chance as his team
mates rallied to the battlecry of
"win this one for Veitch." The
accident was in all ways unin
tentional, of course, and was just
one of the many things that can
happen in a football game. -
Nelson scored first after hav
ing taken a pass from Coleman
and Coleman then marked up a
touchdown himself with a 15
yard gallop.
To start the second half
Tommy Edwards broke away fdr
65 yards on the second play to '
tally and the final touchdown
was made on another pass from
Coleman to Nelson. . ' .' " "
The Wildcats completed six
out of eight passes attempted,
all for sizable gains, and their
tackling along with their aerisll
success were the deciding-factors.
