...Knute Rockne (an end) and Gus Dorais (a quarterback) put on a great passing show. Until three years ago, Notre Dame had a top-heavy edge of 22 victories to five losses. Then, while Leahy was off to war, Army's super-dupers, led by the great Davis & Blanchard, humbled the proud Irish two years in a row, 59-0, 48-0. But, until last week, a Blaik-coached Army eleven had never scored on a Leahy-coached Notre Dame team...

...Harvard team Seaman's playing was splendid; Blanchard was rugged, and always on hand; Cushing '79, was omnipresent, turning up at every instant; Holmes worked well; Herrick made some pretty, though not very effective, runs; and Winsor several good dashes.

In the course of ten minutes, you can see Glenn Davis, Doe Blanchard, Bobby Layne, Charlie Trippi, and others in a series of spectacular runs and passes, nearly all of which go for seventy and eighty-yard touchdowns. Later on, in the newareel a Columbia end called Swiacki catches several passes from a prose position and beats Army. All in all, there is no grid lack at the U.T. this week...

...type of player he wants, Brown sends his scouts to small colleges. From Nevada, he picked up Negro fullback Marion Motley, who is already being spoken of as a more devastating line-plunger than Army's "Doc" Blanchard. He collected a great pass-catching end (Mac Speedie) from the University of Utah, a great punter ("Horse" Gillom) from Massillon (Ohio) High School, the best place-kicker in the land (Lou Groza), who never played varsity at any college. The only big-time college hero on his squad is his passer, trigger-armed Otto Graham, late of Northwestern...
