PAGE STX Scanning SPORTS By FRAN FANUCCI, Sports Editor MR. GRID. MR. IRON PAY A VISIT I sort of expected someone to knock on my office door. especially following the football team's win over Penn Saturday, but I was surprised when it wasn't my old friend Wally the sports fan. Instead it was two of his friends—Mr. Grid and Mr. Iron. "Are you the sports editor," they inquired. After I gave a posi tive reply Mr. Grid explained that Wally had to leave college for a year and so they would take up where he left off. I didn't want to appear rude and tell them I was busy so into the office they came, facts and all. — You have a nice place here." Mr. Grid said. "but it could use some new typewriters and a smaller desk." "I know but I can't complain about the service and I'm sure that we'll have some new equipment shortly." I answered. "I saw you at the game Saturday," Mr. Iron said, "and you seemed pleased with the action." "I was, and what did you think?" "We looked great," Mr. Grid interjected. Why everyone was complaining about us lacking a break-a-way runner, but did you see .Alberigi (Ray) and Kane (Billy) run? They're not so fast as Lenny Moore, but who is?" Before I was able to answer, Mr. Iron put his two cents in. "And don't think Plum didn't look great. Why his ball handling was excellent and his passing was almost perfect, especially the one so Alberigi for the touchdown." Mr. Grid interrupted and I knew I was in the middle of a dis cussion, where I would have to sit on the sideline. "You forgot something brother," Mr. Grid accusingly said, "what about Caprara's faking and blocking. Why every time he went up the middle three guys hit him whether he had the ball or not." "1 know," Mr. Iron said, "but if we're going to discuss every body then let's talk about the line. They were the real. heroes of the game. Why Sam Valentine looked so good that the writers in the press box named him the top lineman of the day." Pick Lions Over Army ! "Let's ricit throw our weight around." Mr. Grid said. "Plum was picked top back of the game, so let's give him some credit." "Okay. Okay," Mr. Iron said, "then let's give credit to all the lineman." Dick DeLuca, Dan Radakovich„ Jack Calderone, and all the ends looked good and if you want to know something the second team was right up there, too, see?" "Go ahead and nrag," Mr. Grid said angrily, "but io me the: best time to brag will be after the Arm 3, game. Penn was green and young and we looked awfully good, which together is poison.i so hold your tongue until this weekend." "I don't give a hoot what you think, Mr. Iron said, "We're! not going to Army with the same boys as last year_ This year's! team has the most spirit and cooperation that I have ever seen up; here. And believe me they remember last year's game all too well.; In fact I'm picking them to win. What do you think?" "I think you're right," Mr. Grid surprisingly said. "but all I said was not to brag too soon." "Oh." Mr. Iron said, "so you heard about Gene Mikelonis (Army halfback) tearing his knee ligaments, too?" "Do you think I would brag so hard if I didn't know," Mr. Grid said. But let's not go overboard on this. He might be out for the' year but Earl Blaik always has some "green" reserve (so he calls' them) that takes over where the other guy left off." "That man (Blaik) has scorcaphobia." Mr. Iron laughed. Why . he keeps his first string in the game until they ask to be taken out. and then he refu , es. Why can't he be like old Rip. He played 36. guys Saturday, which drew a round of comments from the pressbox} personnel." "Okay boys," I interrupted, "it'5!•61000554.0040410 • time to be going. I hate to do this TAE but I have to write two stories imr . Now and then 'study. You know how it is. "And like two angels Mr. Grid and Mr. Iron left WMAJ PROGRAM SCHEDULE WEDNESDAY.

A long pass put the winners on the defenders' 15. Nock scored on a run around left end. AMATO RECEIVED the kick off and attempted to pass. The alert Nock again intercepted and five plays later scored on a five yard run to finish the scoring. The Raiders nipped the Zips in a close 1-0 game.
