THE-KEY¥ WEST CITIZEN # TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1940 Past Wee Warriors On 1940 Gridirons _ Make Big Boys Step To Keep Up MEETING TONIGHT ‘Midgets’ Scatter ‘Giants’ alata '\\)\)| 3 BUSH Despite Average Forty- Pound Concession To Heavier Piayers By FERD BROWNING AP Feature Service Sports Writer NEW YORK, Nov. 19.—The little men have had a busy year. Every weekend on the nation’s gridirons some wee warrior steps into the midst of 21 collegiate colcssuses and scats off with the major honors. Like 155-pound Little Butch Hovious, the Mississippi triple threat, or 145-pound Pete Petrel- la, Penn State’s pepperpot. Or Jchnny Bosch of Georgia Tech, or Bunk Morris, Syracuse sopho- more, or Ted Mazur of Manhat- tan, each one a 145-pound pack- age of poison. These guys don’t seem to real- ize they’re making an average 40-pound concession to the 11 op- ponents across the line. They just go on running around and under —and sometimes right through— those hostile masses of muscle. Hovious Consistent Most consistently. terrifie of the tiny terrcrs has been Hovious. Against L.S.U. he took a 51 pass and went on 17 y touchdown, then scampered 20 yards for another. He went marching through Georgia for 96 yards and six points on a s for return. Two Duquesne huski hung their heads after the stole a touchdown pass out of their intercepting arms on the goal line. Vanderbilt, leading 7-0. saw him snark a long drive in the fourth period, ending up with a touchdown pass. A few minutes later Junie intercepted a Vandy pass and whizzed 46 yards for the winning score. Those are only his big-game touchdown feats. Besides, he averages about 40 ‘ds on punts, passes for better than a .500 average, lugs the ball an average of six yards a try, and does the place kicking. Quite a mite. Petrella, against West Virginia, ye scored two touchdowns to bring his team up from under for a 17-13 victory, two weeks later duplicated the feat against Tem- ple. They call him Pepper at Penn State. See why? Georgia Tech hasn’t been so hot this year but in their bright- est moments the diminutive Bosch has been the against Notre Dame v pulled the Techs from a humili- ating 26-0 rout into a 26-20 con- test Leland “Bun!

M., Nov. 19.— Ceach R. K. Staubus of the Clovis high school Wildcats has twin troubles. For years Staubus and his assistants had looked for- ward to the time when Dick and Jim Colvin, identical twin brothers, would get into high school and be eligible for the high school football team. The two natural foot- ball players were trained al- most from the time they be- gan to walk to tote a football. Finally they got into high school and Staubus imme- diately built a backfield around them. Then in the first game of the season, Jim—or maybe it was Dick—got a broken arm. He’s been on the hospital list ever since. Now Staubus’ hopes are all shattered. He had to rebuild his entire backfield. He ad- mits that Dick—or Which- ever one of the two was left —isn’t half as good as he was when his twin was playing the opposite halfback.
