RAGE 9K Syracuse War Cry: ’We Want Lions • By FRAN FANUCCI j If the Lions’ “rag to riches” j football team expects to re main among the nation’s top 12 teams it would fare well' to heed scout Frank Patrick’s! report on the powerful Or- 1 ange from Syracuse. i “They’re definitely looking towards us,” Patrick said, “and! they're pulling no bones about it. ; Last ‘ week against Boston Uni- 1 vcrsity they started players who' *icver played before. I guess they would rather beat us than any body else on their schedule ” j Patrick pointed out that Syra cuse "has a real good ball club." ; And added: "They have one of the big- ■ gesl lines and backfields we'll tace all year. The backs, be sides being big. are fast and ex perienced and can hurl you M , any given time." ] Up for special mention by the ; veteran coach were backs Jimmy! Brown and Jim Ridlon. Kid!on especially impressed Patrick.: “Ridlon is the most underrated back I’ve seen this year,” he said. “He can do everything well pass, kick, or run.” “And then there's Brown.” Pat- 1 rick explained, “who is one of the' best all-round players in thej East. He can breakaway anytime, despite his 220 pounds and is also: one of the top pass receivers on' the Syracuse team.” 1 On the Syracuse line Patrick j praised center Bill Brown and end Dick Lasse. "Brown." he ! said, "is the best man on that big forward wall. He is a good blocker and a tremendous de fensive performer. Tji<c» is a ! good receiver and blocker and ' lough on defense." Patrick also stressed the fact that Syracuse has good depth and is well-balanced. "They use the two-platoon system much the same as we do,” he said. He added that their fullbacks Pollock Defeats Hamilton, 21-20; 4 Fraternities Win IM Swimming In Monday night's IM swimming action, 3rd Hamilton was de feated by Pollock 4, 21-20. in a meet which ended in a tie and had to be decided by a 90-yard medley race.

JW WEST VIRGINIA POST-MORTEMS . . . I In another display of spirit and cooperation the Lion football team, following its win over the Mountaineers Saturday, presented the game ball to the team trainer, Chuck Medlar. The players had agreed before kickoff time that if | they won “the guy who puts them on their feet every week” 'would get the ball. i ' Medlar; when given the ball, did not say much, but the > players knew that by the smile on his face he was more than satisfied, and they gave him one of the biggest ovations ever heard in the Lion dressing room. All the play ers autographed the ball, on re quest of Medlar. Captain Sam Valentine is probably fhe unluckiesl captain in the country. For the fifth consecutive game he lost the loss of the coin Saturday. It was really the sixth because be also lost the toss in the Colgate scrimmage before the season started. When Les Walters caught Milt Plum's pass for the second Lion touchdown, Mountie Coach Art | Lewis turned around and said to [his assistant coach: "We sure [underrated those .” INS, AP, and UP all rate the Lions in different position in their weekly polls.

Sports Editor Kane and Milt Plum are also in cluded in the feature plus half a story on Valentine. It would be wise for Lion fans to get an issue. A Pittsburgh scout, seated in the pressbox, had great praise for center Dan Radakovich and Sam Valentine. Many of the writers at halftime were still commenting on the vicious tackle Valentine made on the kickoff following one of the touchdowns. Valentine raced down' field, sped through a host of Mountaineers to make the tackle in the clear. Jesse Arnelle, former Lion grid and cage great, was a visitor in the dressing room after the game. [Arnelle is now in the Air Force [and will continue playing basket ball after his discharge. GOING MY WNY?
