Army Line Finally Given Due Credit New York. Nov. 13—IUP) — It has been a ling time coining, but the West Point dough-foots, those anonymous front line Behemoths who do the plugging while the vaunted ball <arrl<-ni do the lugging. were getting belated praise today a.« the uneung stars of G. I Joe’s favorite f of trail team. Like Joe himself. Mr, Army | Lineman. Ire he end. tackle, guard. | or center, doesn’t amount to much individually. He’s )u*t a cog in one of the most pulverizing collegiate* gridiron machines ever to grind an oppomuit to pieces. But without him and Iris “colleagues in I cru»h” the backs couldn’t operate. All of which takes nothing a wav I from the brilliance of army’s lutckfleld. In joy-riding to. a IS to 0: victory over Notre Dame Lie cf- j feneive unit lacked nothing that It i needed. Bui all the while the “star less seven” — that mobile Cade! line - was making it cat* for th»«m. Throughout that grav, and for Notre Dume. cheerless afternoon, j there was one lineman who stood out above all the rest. He was DeWitt Coulter, a “mule” of a man from Fort Worth. Tex., a olx-foot Eiree-lneh, 222 • pound giant, who simply didn’t make any mistakes. Time after time as Felix Blanchard, the flailing fullback barged through a dissembled Notre Ihune line for long gains, he chose the boh* that Coulter had opened for him. If anyone was In Blanchards way the big Bishopville, 8. C„ all America sent lihem sprawling but usually it waon’t , necessary. Coulter wan there to do i It first.

If the play was through center, the wedge was driven by Captain Jack Green, the brtck-llke guard from Shelbyville, Ky.. and Mereehel Fuaon, the powerful pivot man. Green, a whiz on the quickotretiing playa featured by army, never miaseq a blocking assignment all day. H»! “sidekick" a' guard, Art Ger metia from Gary, Ind., was a zealot on defeoee and first put the skids under the green-rJiirts from hU 'some > tate by snapping up a fumble on the seccsid play of the game. From then on It was strictly "no contest" m the break provided army with lie opening touchdown 30 oecimds later. That Notre Dame's backs found it nigh impoeibb- to flank'the ends was due to the negative manner in which Hank Foldberg of i*a!las. Tex,, and Dick Pitzer of Connelsvllle, Pa., treated every tbimt in taelr direction. These starting ends often made haste at getting into the Notre Dame backfield to throw ball-carrtens tw looses, a trick which relief end Barney Poole of Jackson, Mlm.. also worked to perfection out two occaasiona. One of the quietest workmen of all, tackle Al Nemetz of Prince George,. Va., who is alow > nly in his drawling conversation, drew Ute praise of Notre Dame Coach Hugh DeVore, who signed him out as one of the "best college Hnemeti playing anywttere thu oeasoo." All In all It Is quite a few. The line and the hocks too will have their work cwt out tor them this week at Philadelphia when the Cadets play Pennsylvania, a jinx opponent. Col. Earl (Red) Blalk, the Cadet coach is fearful of a let-down after the brilltaat

oilowing against Notre Dame and recalls too well wliat happened there In 1943 when Penn gained a 1.1 Io 13 tie in a game that ranked with the top u|»<ets of the year. Elsewhere in the east the Holy Cr ms Temple, Pi Inceion-Coiumbia, Dartm >uth-CorneU, Syn.cuse • Colgate. Brown • Harvard, Navy-Win-consln. Pltbiburgb Indiana, and Yale-t'oast Guard games are the feature Saturday attractions. o Center lino street margers tn Flint, Mich., are made otft of linoleum blocks.

° Today's Sports Parade By Oscar Fraley Ref. U. B. Pat- Off ) 0 — 0 New York, Nov. IS— (UP)— Hugh Devore Is a serious-minded young man with two parallel lines Mb tween hie eyebrows. One was put there by the Army and the other one was put there by the Navy. But the one that was cr used firmly by the Cadets from up the Hudson is an excavation that never will depart. And it has penetrated to such an extent that the analytical D vore mind Is certain that Army will belt the Navy rather soundly when they meet at Philadlephtas Municipal Stadium on Dec. 1. It simmers down to a matter of offense and not defense and In thia case the judge Is one who should know. Because Devores team Is the one that cam- within some six Inches of knocking Navy out of the undefeated class In their much debated battle at Cleveland. And It s the game Anil club which Army mortlffr'd by a tune of 48 to xero. The aero In the case was owned rather disgutedly by Notre Dame, the much-followed football team which Devore currently is ir-ad coaching. “Rough, brother, rough,” Is tije way Hugh summed it up in retrospect "That Army team Is sometbin&i which will give me the s< reaming rneamlea for the next few yeatw to come.

"I thought we realised what we were up against when we met that Army team —one week after playing Navy to a 6 to 6 tie — but I didn't know nothin',” Hugh shudaered, running tnick fingers through jet black hair. He then proceeded to lick his chops over the thought of having such backs as Felix (Doc) Blanchard, Glenn Davis, Arnold Tucker, Bob Stuart and Shorty McWilliams. “They love to play football and they play it good, hard and sturdy,” Devore deliberated. “They wofild be tough for anyone to beat and I uon't draw the line at professional teams. That boy Bob Blanchard will go down In history as one of the greatest fullbacks of all Hme.” Hughie is just proud as all get out that his boys were able to make a battle out of It for one period. That they just didn’t have it is one of those things you can't combat. “Army Is up there and they are going to stay there," was the way the brown-eyed football professor put, It. Well, then, how will Army do against Navy In their annual gridiron classic and what Is the real difference? “Blanchard and Davis!” “Yes. because defensively there is little to choose between the two teams," Devore recalled. “Navy has good personnel and

they started to click when they beat Michigan the way they d| ( | Position by position thvre I* ||tt| e to choose on the defense and they are pretty much on a par despite the fact we scored on Navy and didn't score on Army. Rut against either team, you can make yardage when H’s first ami 10—but just try it when you need six Inches." But right now Army has the edge, Devore claimed, "They've got power, speed, long punting, good long and short passes and a great defense. They've also got Blanchard and Davit so what more could they want.” That, it would seem. Is that. ■' 0 — Youthful Lover Is Detained By Police Eloping Army Wife Under Questioning Oroville, Calif., Nov. 13— (l'p>— Kllswofth (Sonny Boy) Wlaecarver sulked in a juvenile detention cell today as police questldn'd an army wife who said she ran oft with him because he was "More of a man at 16 than a lot of men at 35.” For his part.
