Jordan's type of single-wing depends ultimately on the ability of each lineman to move two things: himself and his opponent. The system calls for blockers to travel fairly long distances and sometimes to open holes by permanent physical removal of enemy linemen. Not only did the Crimson line outcharge Columbia consistently, but it was able to get going and head plays, despite the slickness of the mud. The current edition of the Crimson line shows power and speed, both of them in quantities that other local teams unfortunately have not always...
LOWELL: The Bellboys, who not too long ago had trouble fielding eleven men, are expected to continue their football improvement of last year. Bob Gebelin and Monny Dowling are counted on to star in the backfield, while Ed Aronson and Bruce Righter are outstanding linemen.

When defense men tackled, their opponents dropped. In all, Ronnie completed six passes, three for touchdowns. Whenever he wanted to keep the Aggies honest, he was able to send 210-lb. Bob Davenport, one of the best fullbacks in the country, bulling through the line. For the first time in his seven-year career at U.C.L.A., Sanders has a team that can either "go over 'em or through 'em." Final...
