Football: Collegiate

To Philadelphia for the 35th Army-Navy game went such notables as Secretary of War Dern, Chief of Staff Douglas MacArthur, Postmaster General Farley, Maryland's Governor Ritchie, New York's Mayor LaGuardia. Speculators sold tickets for $40 each. In the first quarter, Slade Cutter, Navy's tackle and heavyweight boxing champion, place-kicked a goal from the 20-yd. line. After that, the two teams struggled up & down the muddy field with Fred Borries doing most of Navy's ball-carrying, and a quick-charging Navy line effectively checking Army's Jack Buckler and Joe Stancook. Navy's first victory over Army in 13 years ended with the score still 3-to-0.

In Baton Rouge, Senator Huey Long sat in a purple & gold-draped box to watch Louisiana State lose its first game of the season against Tulane, an institution which the Kingfish has hated and despised ever since it refused to give him an honorary degree. With three minutes to play and Louisiana State a touchdown ahead, Tulane's Simons caught a lateral pass, ran through the whole Louisiana State team for the score that won 13-to-12.

At Los Angeles, Southern California ended its conference season in which it won only one game, by losing to Washington, 14-to-7. Rice Institute's Owls, traditional tail-enders in the Southwest Conference, won their first championship by smothering Baylor with five touchdowns, 32-to-0.

At Baltimore, Western Maryland's Bill Shepherd sent the total number of points he has scored this season to 133, biggest in the U. S., with two touchdowns and one conversion against Georgetown.

In University, Ala., Alabama's President George Denny remarked on Stanford's invitation to send its football team for the fourth time to play in the Rose Bowl on Jan. 1: "We have accepted it."

In New York, the Associated Press released an All-America team, selected by a poll of football experts throughout the U. S.
