added martial law to its stern measures to stamp out (anti-German

three more persons, two policemen and an unidentified Czech brought
to 12 the number shot to death within the last 48 hours. Nine stu
dents were executed yesterday.
The Netherlands passenger liner Simon Bolivar sank in the
North Sea with a possible loss of 140 lives yesterday after striking
amine which the British Admiralty charged Germany had &id with
out notifying neutral shipping. The 8,309 ton vessel carried 400 per
sons, including women and children. A total of 260 survivors landed
at an unnamed East Coast British port. ,
Four bombs exploded last night in the smart Pieadilly Circug

of the outlawed Irish Republican Army terrorism. This w^s the
first such serious outbreak since the war began. No one was hurt.

DlNEHURST SCOREBOARD
I by ROBERT E. HARLOW
There was Julian Bishop, blasting away with an automatic from
the poop deck of his boat, Eugenie II., in a gallant effort to drive
off an attacking army of sharks. They were coming in waves, like
infantrymen, seeking to capture the 548 pound blue tuna, which
Mrs. Bishop had hooked, and was trying to bring aboard before the
man-eaters made a meal of the prize catch.
Mrs. Bishop was a contestant in the first tuna fishing cham
pionship in Bimini waters, off Cat Cay, for women anglers. It was
the first time Mrs.; Bishop had ever engaged in fishing since as a
child she reached into a bowl of goldfish and found it immensely
entertaining sport.
The Captain of the Eugene II., having caught a glimpse Of the
gigantic tuna on the end of Mrs. Bishop’s line, realized that the sea
was about to give up one. of its best selections, and, provided the
fish could be landed* without being mutilated, it would probably be
the biggest reported, and win first prize.
After two hours of battling, the tuna had been brought close
enough to the boat for the mate to grab the leader wire, toss .the
gaff in, lasso the tail and make fast to the block and tackle. The
gasoline engine used to wind in the fishes was started- This threw
the tuna into reverse. The fish took off for .home, pulled the block
and tackle loose, and the,'mate with it.
Camera!
V
The mate was half out of the boat, caught in the tackle. The
sharks were advancing, and the tuna making a final bid to get
away from it all. The situation was critical. It was at this time
that Mr. Bishop started to open fire. , He threw thirty rounds at
the sharks, repulsing them single handed. ' i
The mate untangled himself, placed the block and tackle back
in position, and the tuna was brought on board, unmutilated.
Mrs. Bishop sat back in- an easy chair and enjoyed the pro
ceedings. She wanted to catch some more of the same size. She
did catch another, but it weighed only 399, which is at least one
pound under par for the Cat Cay course.
Meantime Mr. and Mrs. John K. Weeks, Jr., were put in an
other boat, and Mrs. Weeks had landed two tuna weighing 445 and
346 pounds. The Weeks thought the 445 pounder Would win the,
prize for the largest fish, and that the total weight of Mrs, Week’s
double would win the ribbon in this contest.
Mrs. Bishop weighed in with 947 pounds and Mrs. Weeks with
791. Mrs. Bishop went to Cat Cay for a vacation and did not intend
to fish. Mrs. Weeks finished third.
In the men’s tournament Mr. Weeks finished about nineteenth,
| and Mr. Bishop was likewise out of the money. Mr. Bishop said he
shot the eyes out of a few sharks. ,

GAME THRILLS THRONG s
---
By ROBERT E. HARLOW *
DURHAM, N. C., Nov. 18—
The game has ended, but the final
score on North Carolina high
ways in, the vicinity of the Duke
Stadium may not be completed
until sometime tomorrow. "
Duke was the better team, and
won, 13 to 3.
The girls are wearing new
hats, in the Arabian style, with -
long ribbons falling down be
hind. ■ '
North Carolina folks did not:
intend to miss a single instant,
of this spectacle, and when the*
ball was kicked off there - was;
enough crowd present to last the
United States Golf Association
for a dozen national amateur
championships.
The. score by periods:
Duke 0 0 7 6—13
N. C. 0 3 0 0— 3
When the teams came out on
the field and saw the vast amphi
theater filled with eager specta
tors, the boys khew they were
really up in the big time, and it
appeared to give them stage—*;
fright. For many minutes the
game was loosely played. There
was very little continuity to it.
Plays which were designed to s
[develop according to well laid 1
plans, were detoured. Backs found
i themselves in awkward positions,
completely surrounded by the en- /
emy. ,
Intense Young Men
Seldom have young men been
more tense than they were in
this Duke-North Carolina game^ V
The build-up, the crowd, the at- ;
mosphere, made them so keen
that at the beginning they were- ,
too eager and did not have prop- ’
er control..
This made for a very interests
ing game, with an exceptionally >
large number of unexpected
plays.
Duke indicated power at the
start, but when one of dbe fam
ous McAfee brothers dropped a i
punt in the second period, which » |
North Carolina recovered and
parlayed into a field goal, to lead
three to zero, North Carolina
was hopeful. This field goal just
made it, having been booted frbm /
the 45 yard mark. The ball had
inches to spare as it crossed over
thq bar. , v
The girls are wearing long,
red, brown, blue,and various oth
er colored ribbons from the backs
of their hats. They flutter in the
breeze like flags on Decoration
Day. It appears to be the gag
of the millinery people. You can
tell immediately if a girl is in the *;
latest hat style. r 7 - '‘1 *
Early in the_ third period Duke
blocked a North Carolina punt
from inside Carolina’s twenty
yard line. The ball rolled back,
of the' N^. C. goal line and Duke
fell on it and converted. "Score
then read: -
Duke 7, — N. C. 3. f <
The North Carolina kicker did
not use his head. He tried to
get the kick away too fast, and y
from a point too close to the line
of scrimmage. He needed a nib
lick on -his shoe to get quick ele- ; ;
