NEW YORK, Oct. 20 (UP).-
Every member of Army's 1912
football squad must have learned
Gen. Douglas MacArthur's fa-
nous sports quotation by heart.
We mean the one the general
authored when he was superin-
tendent at West Point some 20
years ago:
upon the fields OF friendly
strife,
Are sown the seeds
THAT, upon other fields, on
other days,
"Will bear the fruits of vic
tory"
The current Army team, un-
beaten and united, seems to be
sowing a lot of seeds. The black
and gold Cadets are one of the
most respected grid aggregations

AS tag line, the major pointed
out that referee Jim Masker failed
to assess a 5-yard penalty against
Minnesota because of too many
times out. which would have ended
the half before the winning drop

In other words, the major hints
the kick was made between the

things slide, pointing out it had
no quarrel with the officials and
