toon officer. Chaplain George W.
Cummins, and Lieut. A. K. Marck-
wald, personnel officer, will parti

The national observance of Navy
Day was inaugurated Oct. 27,
1922, under the auspices of the
Navy League of the United States,
in order that the American peo
ple might become more familiar
with the Navy and gain a greater
appreciation of its importance
and influence in our national life.
Oct. 27 was chosen as the date be
cause it marks the anniversary of
the date in 1775 when the Contin
ental Congress received the bill
providing for the creation of an in
dependent fleet.
Last year at least 5,763,000 peo
ple attended 6,407 Navy Day cele
brations throughout the country,
and the observance this year is ex
pected to be the greatest in his
tory.

Cloudbusters Come From Behind To Gain
13-13 Tie With University of Virginia
After defeating Duke and the
Naval Academy on successive week
ends, the Cloudbusters were held
to a 13-13 tie against the Univer
sity of Virginia last Saturday at
Charlottesville.
Unable to break through the
stubborn Virginia defense in ‘the
first quarter, the Cloudbusters
scored late in the second quarter
when George Lorentz recovered a
blocked punt for the touchdown.
The try for the extra point failed.
The Cavaliers received the ball
on the kickoff and marched 87
yards, all on running plays, with
Dick Davis bucking over the tally.
Johnny Duda’s placement put Vir
ginia ahead, 7-6.
In the third quarter, Duda in
tercepted a pass by Graham on the
26 and returned to the Cloudbust
ers’ 23. Lucien Burnett rounded
end for a touchdown. Duda’s kick
went wild..
A second blocked punt put the
Cloudbusters in scoring position
late in the fourth quarter. After
the ensuing exchange, Graham re
turned 19 yards to the Virginia 26,
where he passed to little Wally
Schumacher for the touchdown.
Buell St. John added the extra
point to knot the score.
The Cloudbusters rushed into
Cavalier territory twice in the first
quarter and twice in the second,
but were unable to carry across a
score. Graham’s 39 yard sprint
around end carried to Virginia’s
21, but four plays later the Cava
liers took over on the 13.

FOOTBALL
(Continued from page one)
The starting lineup which Coach
Pond expects to send out against
the Cloudbusters contains several
experienced performers. The
Cloudbusters will have to keep 8
weather eye on Frank Stanczaki
former Lafayette back, who can
pass as well as run; Bob Hamil
ton, ex-Vanderbilt speedster; Ar
nold Scott, fleet-footed wingbacls
from Montana U.; and Toi»
White, former Hawthorne, Calif-i
High School star. At blocking
back Coach Pond can call upon
such rugged citizens as Dennis
Drewes, a grid discovery from De
troit Lakes, Minn., and Buck
Jones, a 225-pound Wake ForeS*
veteran.
The Skycracker line also boasts
plenty of rugged talent, includinj
Bill Evans, of the Naval AcademJ
and Ted Scruggs, of Rice, at th«
ends; Ollie Jack, of Baylor, ani
Bill Eckert, a high school standoul
from St. Mary’s, Pa., at tb^
tackles; Ken Getting, of Ft
Wayne, Ind., and Fred Wendt, oi
the Naval Academy, in the guar<^
slots; and Gardner “Tuffy” MS'
Cormick, of Baylor, at center.
While the Cloudbusters are eS'
pected to bounce back from tW
surprise 13-13 tie at Virginia, th<
team is not in top shape physical'
ly. Almost certain to be on th<
sidelines is Ben Lum, regula*
tackle, and Frank AschenbrenneJ
the little scat back who scored W
winning touchdown against W
Naval Academy.
Probable starters will be Mel’
bourne Sheehan and Warren AP'
derson at the ends, Leland Yag®’
and George Lorentz at the tackle®
Kermit Atkinson and Dale Pulve’
at the guards and R. 0. Huneycut*
at center.
Dan Weitekamp is the startiuf
quarterback, Stan Koslowski afl‘
Bill Wilson will be at the halved
and Otto Graham at full.
