"Army is tough no natter what
kind of formation it uses," Engle
said one day last week. "Well
have to Prepare for anything and
everything."
"They have teriffic speed in
Anderson and Dawkins and an
excellent passer in Caldwell.
But they also have a powerful
fullback in (Harry) Walters and
a big, tough line "which aver
ages 210 pounds."
Engle's assistant coaches who
scouted Arniv in its rout over
the Gamecocks agree 100 per
cent with Engle
"That Walters is a very stroll , *
and hard runner," end coach
J T White said. "He's much bet
ter than (Vince) Barth, Army's
fullback last year. Ane, he's fast
er too."
"That line is bigger than ever."

Novagratz, who has been rated
as one of the Point's all-time line
men by many sports writers. was
the big star in last week's Caro
lina test, completing over 75 per
cent of his offensive assignments
and leading the line in tackles.

Out On a Limb
Once again our Penn State prognosticators have consulted their
ouija boards, crystal balls, and dart boards to come up with their
selections for today's grid games.
Genial George French, who picked 13 out of the 15 games last
week, and is presently the leading man in the predictors' circle,
claims that there is foul play afoot on the part of his competitors.
Someone bent all of his darts!
He claims that he'll be under a real handicap today. If there
is any safety at all in numbers, he's right. He disagrees with the
other prophets on only four games.
This week's coach. Joe Paterno, explains his picks by saying
he picked Brown over Yale to be loyal. (He's a graduate of Eli and
doesn't want to get into the bad graces of the alumni association
there.)
We also checked into the methods of the other prophets to see
how they made their picks. Hete at la3t is the secret.
Lucky Lou Prato takes all the statistics he can find about the
coeds at the schools involved and puts them into an IBM machine.
_ "Usually the JBM machine is too interested in the coed's sta
tistics to give any answer on the teams." he says. "So I have to
auess."
Magnificent Matt Mathews claims he too uses a mathematical
formula to come up with his predictions. He takes the records from
previous years, squares them, adds fifteen, divides by 40, and ends
up with the wrong age of the coaches. He fails to tell us that he
flunked arithmetic in high school and can't work the formula.
Our prognosticators agree on one thing out of this whole mess.
They say this weeks selection of teams was the hardest yet. (They
;say this no matter what happens!)
1 They figure that if they're wrong. they have the excuse that
the selections were too hard. If they're right, they can say "I told
you SO."
Having divulged too many of their predicting techniques already,
we give you the predictions:
