Greasy Neafe of the Philadelphia Eagles and Mr. George Marshall of the Washington Redskins we are not wholly in disagreement with the observations on professional football made in Colliers this week by Col. Earl "Red" Blaik of Army. Colonel Blaik said, for example, that "pro football is a showman's game." The remark Irritated Mr. Neale, no end, and It moved Mr.

Marshall to nay in rebuttal that until the Army roach Is willing to explain his "run-out" on Notre Dame he ought to keep his big mouth shut Messrs. Neale and Marshall, joined by others of the professional cult, were angry. Yet, on this one point we are Inclined to concur with Colonel Blaik. Pro football is a showy thing. Leastwise, it always struck us that way.

This is not to suggest it isn't 100 per cent on the square. The pros play hard and they play for keeps. But behind their honest efforts there seems to be a powerful desire to delight the customers and bring 'em back in large and profitable numbers the following Sunday. Wouldn't you say? Well, then, that's settled and Colonel Blaik is one up. But not for long.

Here we rush in a fresh platoon and start wearing him down. The Army coach said: "What happens to the leading college players when they go into professional football? They take their places in the front line immediately and without exception. They become stars at once. Nertz and double nerts! They do no such thing! Particularly, do they not do it "immediately and without exception." A few make the grade. They are the "promising rookies," but at the start they must be "carried" by the older, battle-tested hands who are the strength of any pro club.

Colonel Blaik'a statement can be disproved on so many counts that we'd be accused of "pouring it on" if we used them all. We aim to go tasy on him and we hope he'll remember our generosity when he brings his team out here to play Stanford in late November. They say the colonel is a difficult man to see. He is. so we hear, perpetually surrounded by a guard of lesser brass, and his custom is to grant five-minute interviews at 6:45 a.

an hour when if any self-respecting newsman is about, it is only because he's just being helped home. After what we're doing for him, though, we expect a better shake from the distinguished West Point mentor. If he has a grain of gratitude in him, he'll see us at noon and he'll say "thanks, Sullivan for beating me by only B0 points. I know you could jut as well have made it a hundred."

It would be an understatement to say he was "one of the leading college players" of last year. Everybody's all American, he was THE leading player of 1949! It's nice to report that the ex Notre Darner is doing well as a pro. Not spectacularly well as he did in college.

Just well. The league is loaded with better players. And Hart found that out "immediately" upon pining the Lions. The fact is that he was something of a flop to bf gin with. But he worked hard and now he's earning his pay.

Other "leading players" of Hart's senior year found the going rather tougher. We said we'd go easy on Colonel Blaik. so we cite only a few purely locl examples.
