Rear Admiral Joseph James Clark, however, was asked once by the Secretary of the Navy, at a Press Conference, what his in itials were, a? he knew him only as "Jocko" Clark. I The first flag officer of the Navy to meet death In World War II was Rear Admiral Isaac Campbell Kidd. When the Japan ese attacked Pearl Harbor, he courageously directed the action of his flagship ARIZONA, until she was destroyed by magazine explosions and a direct bomb hit on the bridge, resulting in his death. Vice Admiral Alfred Eugene Montgomery, veteran Pacific Task Group Commander of World War II, is one of the few offi cers of the U. S. Navy who are both qualified aviators and sub mariners, and therefore entitled to wear both the Navy Wings and the Gold Dolphins. Irish, Michigan Top Grid Teams Columbia's 21-20 Triumph Over Army Was Major Upset Of Nation's Pig skin Season BY FRANK ECK NEW YORK?Collegiate foot- \ ball during 1947 enjoyed another banner season with many of the headlines being shared by two mid-Western powerhouses, unbeat en and untied Notre Dame and Michigan. Penn State was the only other major unbeaten and untied eleven | in the country while Pennsyl vania, Southern Methodist and Kansas were undefeated but tied. ( As usual there were a fair j share of upsets. Possibly the most. stunning surprise was Columbia's 21-20 triumph over Army for the | j West Pointers' first setback in more than three seasons. The j j Cadets had gone through 32 pre- ? vlous games without losing. | Adding salt to their wounds. | j the Soldiers were turned back byi I Notre Dame, 27-7, in the 24th and final meeting of the colorful se-| ries. Both schools had agreed a | year previous that the game "was getting out of hand." Navy, the team with the tough est schedule, won only one game and lost to Army, 21-0, before 101,500 in Philadephia for the fourth straight year. Two of the individual college' stars were quarterback Johnny i Lujack of Notre Dame and Bob j Chappuia, Michigan halfback j Professional football received i much unfavorable publicity in the off season when Alvin Paris was! convicted on a charge of at tempting to fix the 1946 National League playoff game between the Chicago Bears and the New York Giants. j In chronological order, a New York judge meted out stiff sen tences to the three alleged"brains" [ behind the football fixing plot, I the National League indefinitely I suspended Merle Hapes and Frank | Filchock of the Giants for failure to report the alleged bride at tempt anil Paris went to prison for one year. James Crowley resigned as commissioner of the All-America | Conference to coach the Chicago Rockets and Adm. Jonas Ingram former commander of the At lantic Fleet, succeeded him. In gram issued several challenges to the National League but the veteran circuit declined every In-j vitation with a terse "no com ment." | In the Conference the Cleve-1 land Browns won the western I division title and the New York: Yankees were eastern champions. [ The year's most-sought after | player was Charley Trippi, Geor-1 gia's 1946 All-America back. He went to the Chicago Cardinals but j owner Charles Bidwell, who out-1 bid the rich New York Yankees j of the Conference, died and never saw Trippi play for pay.
