“No Contest’ for Soldiers in - | Any of Their Games While - Middies Had Two Problems

By LEO H. United Press

PETERSEN Sports Editor

NEW YORK, Nov. 27.—With the men who ought to know, for they

suffered the most, it's Army over Na

vy without a dissenting vote.

A United Press poll of the five common foes—and their coaches—

of the two service elevens failed to the Middies could upset the Cadets

disclose a single man who felt that at Philadelpai Saturday.

What's more, the only team which Navy was able to whip worse than

Army—Michigan—was the strong-| est in its sentiment for the Cadets] although Wolverine Coach Pritz| Crisler hedged a little. He rated | ‘the game a toss-up, with the edge, if any, to Army. The other teams and their coaches, ~~Duke, Notre Dame, Villanova and | Pennsylvania—also were unanimous in their selection of Army. Coach George Munger and his Pennsyl- | vania squad, because of their friend- | ship for Tony Minisi, one of Navy’ S| key backs who was the star of the 1944 Penn eleven, begged off direct; quotes but left no doubt as to their feeling that Army would be too much for the Midshipmen. The scores tell only part of the) story for it was no contest for Army in any of the games while Navy was hard put to come from behind to defeat Penn and to tie Notre Dame. On the other hand, Michigan, which | __gave army its most trouble—other than the Army second team in practice scrimmages—was not as tough for Navy, But Navy's performance failed to impress the Wolverines other than

Clarence Munn said it was “hard to, predict,” but added “he would take a chance on army.” Coach Eddie Cameron of Duke | picked Army, and added, “but no runaway. Navy has a line capable of causing plenty of trouble.” Line Coach Ellis Hagler of the Blue Devils, predicted: “Army will beat | ‘em because they've got one of the best teams I've ever seen.” Devore Picks Cadets

Hugh Devore, the head man at Notre Dame, gave the nod to Army “by a substantial margin” and his assistants backed him up. Like Munger, Coach Jordan Olivar of Villanova did not care to be quoted, but inferred that Army was his choice. A cross-section of how the players feel: “Army will win by three touchdowns”—Capt. Kelley Mote, Duke. “Blanchard and Davis spell the difference between victory and defeat for just about any team, including Navy”-—Capt. Joe Ponsetto, Michigan. “Army, and easy "Frank Dance-
