Notes
Fran Curci, All - American
quarterback for Miami' in 1959,
is now a backfield coach for
the Hurricanes . . Andy Gus
tafson, one of the top coaches
in the country, has compiled a
77-51-3 record during his 13
years at Miami . . Boston U.,
Penn State's next opponent,
is having its troubles. First the
Terriers lost Albie Stonkus, a
dependable halfback, and now
speedster Hugh O'Flynn is on
the injury list . . . Dr. Alfred
H. Griess, team physician, did
not make the trip with the
Lions . Tonight's game will
be the first away encounter
Griess has missed in 23 years
... The few critics that George
Mira has, say that he's great
for completing short passes but
can't throw the long ones.
Lion Coach Frank Patrick dis
agrees. "I've seen him throw
a ball 55 yards without any
trouble," Patrick says.
