Recommended for Bowl Hard-Hitting Cadets May Go Undefeated Again By HARRY GB.AYSON YORK, Oct. 20 (NBA) If Fred Digby and the other "embers of the Sugar Bowl Committee are as smart as they JI Te been to date, they'll In" ite Army to New Orleans on se Year's day right now. And have the greatest football show on earth. This is a rousing West Point team, mates, and it stands a srand chance of going through Unbeaten. There is the closing traditional scrap with Navy, of course, but Pennsylvania is the only real threat, Nov.

13. The Villanova veterans who opposed the Cadets for the fourth straight fall say Arnold Gallffa, Bobby Jack Stuart, Joe Henr and Company are a harder-hitting outfit than were Doc Blanchard and Junior David editions. "It misht have been that they iep; the pressure on us to a greater extent with the two explain the Wildcats, they sure belted us." Ray Eliot was forced to adopt virtually a no-contact policy at Illinois for the entire week 'after the future generals' -visit to Champaign. The 'Illinois athletes who played any length of time were that badly battered and bruised. Army's running attack rolled to its second highest yard total in yards.

This monumental total fell just 33 yards short of Army's all-time high of 474 recorded in 1945 against Melville Torpedo Boat school in the heyday of Blanchard and Davis. The 'army players voted to show off stickout Davis before the home folks the Rose Bowl Jan. 1, 1947, but were squeezed out when the Western conference insisted that its agreement with the Pacific Coast Conference be started immediately, if not sooner. This after refusing to have anything to do with the Tournament of. Roses for 26 years.

Maj. Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor, superintendent of the Military Academy, gave his permission for the Pasadena trip, and there is no reason to suspect that the old paratrooper would reject a bid from New Orleans. It's too bad the entire cadet corps can't go, and give the Sugar bowl a touch of the Army- Navy game and the most magnetic attraction in its history, That would be a bit too costly, however, as other centers have discovered in seeking the Army-Navy game.

O. C. Krueger, graduate manager on the Plain, figures it would cost close to $400,000 to cart the nearly 2500 cadets to New Orleans. There is nothing to stop the Army football squad from going south, however, and there would be no loss of academic time. All the players have to do is waive their Christmas leave for football.

It would be a tremendous boost for Army recruiting. P. S. to old sports editor Fred Digby: Get busy. It can be had.

You're welcome, and save me the 50-yard line, of course. I wouldn't miss this one for the world. OUR BOARDING HOUSE BUSTER EMD HE ANJ THE ICEBOX SO BAR.E THIS THlrtK MOTHER HUBBAR.D WHO POT THE Hue DM ALL THAT THAT WAS Uirwx A OF FACT, MARTHA, BELIEVE- DID SELECT A ISSI6BLE TRIPLE IMG'. ALL A SACK LEFTOVJERSAW STAGE HIT IT LIKE A TIDAL Breaking away in a series of the longest scoring runs seen at Aluirini field In'rece'nt'years, the Portsmouth high Jayvees defeated Dover, 32-0, yesterday afternoon. The plays, similar to those used by the- varsity, worked, wonders.

Ray Murphy, left halfback for the Little Clippers, scored three touchdowns and nearly had a fourth. Paul -Babula and Nick Paras each scored one as the high-flying sophomores gave a preview of things to come. Murpliy raced 65 yards In the first period. He.scooted 11 yards ai the second period opened to make the score 13-0 after he tallied the extra point. Paul Babula went through center on a quick opening play to run 55 yards for the third Portsmouth touchdown.

There are a few crass souls who tave written to remind me that I also picked Yale to beat Columbia, ind Harvard to take Cornell, not to mention a few others I would ralher Jorget. But enough of history. Let us tan to the future. As a matter of (act, let us look ahead to the Rose toil. I am already picking California to be the Pacific coast representative.

Its Big Nine opponent, I can assure you, will not be Illinois or Michigan. Farther than that I do not care to go fit this moment.
