 New York, Oct. 2s-(Up)-Every member of Army's l942 football squad must have learned Gen. Douglas MacArthur's famous sports quotation by heart. We mean the one the general authored when he was superintendent 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, unbeat- en and united, seems to be sowing a lot of seeds. The black and gold cadets are one of the most re- spected grid aggregations in the nation-one of the three major perfect-record outfits surviving in the east. The Army casissons have rolled over Lafayette, Cornell, Co., lumbia and Harvard, rolling up 90 points to l4
 Their success in this war year is a tribute to the spirit that sparks the future officers and to the abil- ity of their coach, Carl Red" Blaik.
 Before the season opened, there was great uncertainty about the military academy's gridiron pros- poets. Blaik, the former Dartmouth mentor, was starting his second season as head coach of the cadets after losing IT of the first 30 players of the Al squad. including all but four of the men who started the Navy game. Not only was the 42 squad one of the greenest in Army history but it was one that would have little time for practice because of the wartime pressure of academy duties. Eighteen members of the squad, for example, were enrolled in the Points new aviation training course.
 But the cadets, apparently in- spired by the fact that they are representatives of the armed forces in war conscious America, have developed into smart, fast-break- ing, hard-hitting unit-the most impressive college football team that has appeared in New York this season. It is doubtful whether Army can maintain its perfect record for the remainder of this topsy-turvy campaign, but. re- gardless, the future officers already have shown every private in our ar-hung forces that they've got what it takes.
 The cadets untarnished record will be menaced in their five re- maining contests with Pennsyl- vania. Notre Dame. Virginia Tech, Princeton and Navy. The two most dangerous opponents are Penn and the South Bend Irish. In fact, Army doubtless will be an under dog Saturday against Penn at Philadelphia in this weeks feature eastern game.
 Pennsylvania's Quakers are gen. orally rated as haivng more power and deeper reserves. The Quakers are one of the strongest teams in the east, although beaten by Geor- gia Pre-Flight in their opening game and tied later by Princeton.
