SQUAD OF 1940: GIANT LINE MAIN WEAPON By DILLON GRAHAM Wide World Sports Editor seout up Boston way, Eagles of Boston College. figures B.C. should finish its sea- | son without a setback and says| diamonds laid oyt before play | Mr. some experts rate this club as; better than the unbeaten 1940; outfit. j Here’s Scout O’Leary’s Take it away, Steve: “This team is considerably dif- ferent from the 1940 edition. B.C. now operates out of a T- formation in contrast to the va- riation of the Notre Dame sys- tem used two years ago wi Frank Leahy was head coach. “Its giant line—the outstanding defensive unit—has the speed and power to make the T- plays, click and B.C.’s,. record is due in-farge-part to the offen Sive and defensive fire of this; great forward wall. “The 1940, tine was a well-knit, swashbuckling group but this | year’s stririg of s¢ven Eagles need not yield to them in any depart- ment, 5 “Flanked by a fine pair of ends | in Don Currivan and Charlie Furbush, the Eagles have several candidates for national honors in the line in Rocco Canale, a cat- like guard for all his 235 pounds; | Gil Bouley, a slashing tackle, who has torn opposing lines to, ribbons, and Fred Naumetz, co- captain, who ranks close to Chet Gladchuk, the 1940 All- America center. | “Mike Holovak is one of the great backs of the land, a shifty, powerful runner who hasn't had! a bad day all year. He's aver-! aged better than 100 yards gain} rushing per game and is a terror, while backing up the line. Eddie Doherty, a fast-thinking quar-| terback, Mickey Connolly and sophomore Robert “Red” Man- gene, the breakaway runner, | round out the starting backfield. | “Amiong the first experts to tab this club as one of the great elevens: of many years was Coach Jack Hagerty, whose | Georgetown team was walloped 47-0. “I've never seen anything better,’ Hagerty said. ‘It’s supe- rior to the 1940 team because we hould have beaten that bunch. But goodness knows whet would | have’ happened to our 1940 team | if it had ever run up against | this gang.’ | “Hagerty feels that all this teain lacks is a Charlie O'Rourke. | It was O'Rourke, the slim little opportunist with the steel-spring | ht arm, who sparked the ’40| unit through its rugged schedule. | But the Georgetown coach feels B.C, dogsn’t need him. ‘They've got Holovak and | ’s bigger, better and faster in he was two years ago. Do- | hérty, is a sli¢k quarterback and| Mickey Connolly may not be an! PHourke, but he'll do in any| ktield. ‘Bie whole team is loaded| with speed—much more than the 1940 punch. They could beat sveral of the pro clubs and I'd Tike td'see them against the Bears of Papkérs. I can't figure who el uld beat them’.” My ola fraternity room mate at the University of Florida, Carl Brumbaug, is B.C. backfield coach and, he writes: “Wei really have a great foot- ball cldh; probably the finest line in the country and modesty | Prevents my saying too much | about the backfield. “I must tell you, though, that Holovak is taps. He has carried the ball five times as many yards as the combined yardage gained against us by our first five opponents. I have played| with, end against some good; players but this boy is All- | America if I ever saw one.” And) Brumbaugh, who quarterbacked the Chicago Bears for several! seasons, should know. | “I feel that the only way we will lose is for the boys to beat themselves and I think they are | too smart to let that happen.” HERE’S ONE WAY * “FO CURTAIL CRIME (By Ansoclated Preas) ST.
