Har- mon Duel This After- noon At Ann Arbor By BILL BELL AP Feature Service Writer PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 26.— Good-natured “mothering” of football players by fellow stu- dents at the University of Penn- sylvania, says Coach George Munger, gets much credit for Penn's winning ways this sea- son. With victories over the firs three opponents on the toughest ~ feels ;* schedule in years. Munger —— eee “BATTLE OF UNBEATEN ELEVENS (By Associated Press) ANN ARBOR. Oct. 26.— A sparkling battle is ex- pected in this city this after- noon when unbeaten Penn- sylvania, boasting Triple- Threat Frank Reagan, tan- giés with unbeaten Michigan, Iéd by All-America Tom Har- ion. : ees | ‘he can-boast now of the best Penn team in his three seasons as head coach. He figures his high-scoring club has a better-than-fair chance of outpointing Michigan’s Wol- verines and Tom Harmon. One Sophomore Regular Penn’s first team has only one sophomore, End Barney Klucsyn- ski. The rest are seasoned vet- erans, many of two campaigns. | But that’s only half the story ; behind the Quakers’ success, in the opinion of their young coach. ; It’s “student atmosphere”, Mun- ger declared in all seriousness that’s playing a big part in Red and Blue triumphs. He ex- plained: “The student body feels a re- | sponsibility to the team and the team to the student body. In dor- mitories and fraternity houses. the fellows co-operate by keeping quiet so players can get the sleep they need to conform to training rules. “If they see a player _who’s supposed to be in bed by 10:30 watking around the campus at 10:15, they chase him to his room”. Munger, himself a Penn foot- ball star of less than ten year: ago, said this “mothering” in- stinct toward the team is stronger this season than in the past chief- ; ly because of eagerness for an especially good football record in the university’s 200th anniversary year. After Penn licked Princeton | Oct. 19, the 31-year-old coach per- mitted himself his first optimism toward the Michigan, Navy and _ Cornell games. He had been un- impressed by his team’s 51-0 jdrubbing of Maryland and rec- ,ord-smashing 50-7 triumph over Yale—both “admittedly weak teams”. “But now”, he said, after his Quakers tamed the Tigers, “I can feel we have the best team sinc I’ve been here. Princeton is re: ly good”. |" The blond, bespectacled Penn coach won't discuss the All- America chances of his stellar back, Frank Reagan, because h thinks of his ‘team in terms of {group performance rather than | individual brilliance. Bids For High Ranking As Penn bids impressively for a place among the gridiron greats ef 1940, George Munger is win- s ning fapidly the esteem of older and more famous coaches. his alma mater appointed him head’ coach in 1938 his only ex- perience in the profession w five years as a prep school and freshman coach.

A correspondent from © Ranch- vale community near here sent in a story to the local newspaper that went something like this: “The Ranchville girls were able to win their softball game easily from the Forrest girls. The score was 44 to 2 at the end of the fifth when the game was called”. HE WHO WAITS— (Ry Associated Press) CHARLESTON, S. ~C.—Ben Suitt hung around the football field so much that they gave him a suit and now he’s number one tailback on The Citadel vars- ity team: Suitt, a senior, never played college football—nor high school ball, for that matter—until this season. Association ~ MARINES MONDAY BOMBERS AND MERCHANTS TANGLE IN AFTER- PIECE U.S. Marines, who lost sole pos- session of second-place in the Service Softball League last night, will engage the U.S. Army in the opening contest Monday night at Bayview Park. Leather- necks will attempt to bounce back into their former position with a victory over the Soldiers. Dropping a one-sided affair to VP53's in the initial fracas last evening, the Marines slipped in- to a tie for second-rung honors with the Army. Victors of the game Monday will gain posses- sion of that coveted spot. Merchants, cellar-cccupants of the Civilian League, take on the’ Bombers in the nightcap of the Monday doubleheader.
