EIGHT PAGES ARMY DEFEATS NAV BRNS ASSAILED IRI [JL NAVY8JlBkY GOVERNMENT IN THRILLING BATTLE BEFORE VAST CROWD VICTORS COME FROM BEHIND IN SECOND HALF TO SCORE TWICE CADETS TRIUMPH 14 TO 9 3ildsliiptuen Outplay Rivals During All Of First Half And Put Over Touchdown in Last (Special to'The Daily) POLO GROUNDS, NEW YORK, Nov. 26.-Rallying from a poor start, Army conquered the Navy today, 14 to 9, un- der the indominitable leadership of the blond and battling cadet, Capt. "Lighthorse" Harry Wilson. While a colorful, wildly yelling crowd of 76,000 looked on, Wilson pulled his wabbly team together be- tween halves, came out to lead a charge that twice crossed the Navy goal line, and then stand foremost in a defense that checked the desperate and dangerous closing spurts of the sailors. Army's victory over a gallant team that played superior football in all but the second period was a personal triumph for the veteran Wilson play- ing his last year for the Army and his} seventh against the Navy in a Varsity 1 career that began in 1921 at Penn, State. It was Wilson who plunged in and tackled with his forwards as they put up a stonewall defensive barrier in the first half, beaten back and once yielding a safety on a blocked kick, but also twice stopping the Navy at the threshhold of the goal line. Once, the Middies were turned back with only five yards to go, but even mores disheartening, in the second period,1 was the Navy's thrust that was stopped by the Cadets only a foot short of *a touchdown. Wilson Is Star t was Wilson who came trotting out in the second half to lead a thrust that turned the tide and clinched the game. "Lighthorse" Charlie was a whirling dervish as he took a Navy punt on the latter's 46-yard line to dash 18 yards,k then carried the ball across the Mid- die's goal in five successive dashes. Sidestepping and straightarming, Wil- son frequently took three or four tacklers along with him, as he reeled offff 28 yards to the goal line. With the winning spark thus ignited, "Red" Cagle, fleet running mate of the Army captain, grabbed opportun- ity-in the form of an intercepted pass -and raced 36 yards to the Navy's 4- yard mark. It took only two bucks by Wilson to put the ball over and I GOVERNMENT COUNSEL IOWA PROFESSOR ' i i L UN10LL TO SPEAK HERE 1I ITHDf IDr. Lee Edwin Travis, associate IIII1UUU~t)5~RPI5E professor of speech at the University of Iowa and director of the speech Eclinic at that university, will deliver !IN OL SC4 D41.a regular University lecture here on IN L SCANDAL C S Monday, Dec. 12,o Tuesday, ec. 13, it was announced yesterday by Dr. , WILL ISSUE 75 SUBPOENAS FOR Frank Robbins, assistant to the Pres- NEW WITNESSES OF ident.

DPERA TICKETS TO BE, PUT ON GENERAL SALEI lill Open General Sale To Public For All Local Performances At Whitney Theater WILL START TOMORROW General sale of tickets for all local performances of the 22nd annual Michigan Union opera, "The Same To You," will begin tomorrow, according to announcement made today by Paul Buckley, general manager of the Un- ion. The sale will continue through Wednesday. The purposes of the general sale are to enable all those who have no connection with the Union, opera, or University to obtain tickets for the Whitney performances, or tl Ise of the student body who have been in- cluded in the various classifications but have negfected to obtain applica- tions thus far. "The Same To You" will open in the Whitney theater on Monday night, Dec. 5, and will run throughout the week with a matinee on Saturday. The road trip will be undertaken during the Christmas hol- idays and will carry the Opera to many of the principal cities of the East and Middle West. Chicago will be played on Friday hight, the day that schools closes in all schools and colleges of the University. The general sale will take place at the box office in Hill auditorium be- ginning Thursday, Dec. 1. Applica- tions for all those directly connected with the opera organization werq mailed out .some time ago, and were followed by those for all fully paid life members, including many alumni in this class. Participating life mem- bers of the Union were able to se- cure their applications more than a week ago, and the privilege is still open. This includes almost every male student in school. All those having applications now are urged to doi tlhm in inimdliatel if thev I SENATE WILL DELIVER INDEPENDENCE SPEECH WAS ELECTED MEMBER OF FIRST ASSEMBLY FOR ISLANDS DURING 1907 SERVED WITH AGUINALDO Lxpect Quezon To Clarify Statements Concerning Diversified Views In Lecture Tomorrow Manuel L. Quezon, president of the Philippine senate, will delive a lec-j ture at 4:15 tomorrow in the Natural Science auditorium. He is to speak on "Philippine Independence." Quezon is one of the foremost fig- ures in Philippine politics. He began his career as a lieutenant-colonel in General Aguinaldo's army. In 1907 he, was elected to a membership in the first Philippine assembly, and after serving there for several years, he became one of the two commissioners that have a seat in the United States Congress. While in office he was largely responsible for the passing of the Jones act, which serves as the. Philippine constitution. When the first senate was organized he return- ed and was chosen president in which office he has served until the pres- ent. He has always been a strong ad- Ivocate of complete and unqualified independence, so it was with great surprise that he recently made a statement favoring a mutually advan- tageous -arrangement whereby both countries should receive that which they most desire. When interviewed concerning these remarks he stated that his latest ideas were not incom- 1 patible with his views on permanent independence. Excited Wonder Many people are wondering exactly what Quezons means and it is ex- pected that he will clarify his stand in his speech tomorrow. The thoughts are even more confusing since he emphatically states that he wants. self government and equally emphat, ically says that he does not mean to sever relationship with America. Since the death of Governor-Gener- al Leonard Wood the question of Philippine independence has become a even more vital. For over three months the Philippines have had n head, and Congress has not as yet 1met to decide who will get the posi- tion. There is a new period in the Philip pines since Governor-General Woo IIdied, and what the trend of politic, will take depends largely on who h elected governor-general. It is partly for this reason that Quezon is it America. He has spent several weeks G C 1 Ch fim un je tw F of w th of bo th 1m ar ev Cl ti V s t cc t t e: to - P t s e y f n s t I ALENS TO HOLD CHRISTMAS DRIVE A drive for funds for the purpose of oviding Christmas gifts ad a hristmas party for the children con- ed in the University hospital will be adertaken this week by members of alens, honorary medical society, it as announced yesterday by Glenn armichael, '28M, chairman of the pro- ct.

J., will deliver the address of the second of the fall series of student convocations to be held at 11 o'clock this morning in Hill auditorium.

Be- ing an upholder of the liberal view of religion and believing in the place of religion in everyday life, Dr. Erdman s has been able to appeal to all classes 1of people. Dr. Erdman has a particular appeal for the student mind, interested in bringing the problems of religion to - bear upon the problems of life and of living. Recently when the students of Princeton were asked to ballot for their favorite minister, Dr. Erdman won by anoverwhelming majority. He tis the father-in-law of Rev.
