Randolph Field Fliers Loom As One of Great Texas Teams
HOUSTON, Tex., Oct. 12 (U. P.).—The Randolph Field Fliers, latest in a long line of superlative football teams in Texas, may go down as one of the greatest of them all, their supporters insisted today. Even for enthusiastic Texans that is saying a lot, because the state traditionally produces at least one great team every year. However, in this current wartime season no other eleven hereabouts appears capable of topping the Fliers, who have an] awesome collection of ex-collegiate siar with the Pittsburgh Steelers in . and pro stars from every part of 1942.

By UNITED PRESS Indiana State today rated the favorites’ nod in its second meeting with Wabash Saturday at Crawfordsville despite Wabash’s 14-12 victory over the Sycamores in the Indiana college football opener Sept. 9.

crashed through with a pair of convincing triumphs. State trimmed Illinois Normal, 33-13," a week after Normal held Wabash to a 7-7 tie and last Sat-
