Holovak Leads Boston College to Bowl
Eagles Called Far Superior To 194O Team
By BURTON BENJAMIN (NEA Service Stan Correspondent

NNnA oerVtce SthM COFrtSpOnuent)
 Boston, Nov. 10. - Bowl bound Boston College, unbeaten, united and apparently unstoppable, heads for another post-season engage ment with the finest team in its history.
 Observers rate it far superior to the Charley O'Rourke team of lo4C which defeated Tennessee, 1918, in the Sugar Bowl and earned Frank Leahy his chance at Notre Dame.
 Football prosperity is nothing new to this Catholic institution of 1900 students, Since 1928, Eagle products have won o7 of l3s games. Only in one season did the opposition amass more than 100 points.
 The current edition is a football coach's dream, said mentor being Dennis Edward Myers, who still gazes ct the Beantown behemoths in awe after five years at under manned Brown.
 EAGLES DON'T GET HURT
 Denny Myers men cut down the opposition with scythe- like preci. sion. West Virginia was guillotined 33-0, Clemson fell, l4-7. Jimmy Crowley's star-studded North Caro- lima Pre-Flighters were repulsed, 7.6. Wake Forest was trounced 27-o, Highly-regarded, once-beat- en Georgetown was walloped, 47-0.
 The Eagles have two complete teams and three backfields, and they have been fortunate in that not a single player has been shelved by injury.
 Operating from the T formation and fronted by HalaS-like line, Myers pegs his attack on Q likely All-America candidate, Co-Capt. Mike Holovak.
 A 2o4-pound riple-threater, Hol- ovak is a Leahy product. Ills broth. CT, Pete, was a Fordham main stay, Leahy influenced him to ship young Mike to Boston.
 In his first five games, Holovak gained more yardage by rushing than the entire backfields of all opponents. He carried the ball 90 times for 560 yards, an average of 6,2 yards, and scored four touch- downs,
 LINE AVERAGES ABOVE 200
 The Eagle forward wall, aver aging well above 200 pounds, would do a professional club proud. Gil Bouley at tackle and Co-capt. Fred Uaumetz at center are parti- cularly outstanding. The Eagles have 0 rare end in Don Currivan and explosive guards in Rocco Ca- nale and Al Fiorentino.
 This dyke has held the opposi- ton to less than 200 yards in six games while the Eagles were amaRsing more than 1900. Clemson backs were held to Q net gain of minus 26.
 Holovaks backfield mates are Ed die Doherty ct the up back, while Bob Mangene and Mickey Connol- ly join him on the T line. All are seasoned veterans.
 Holovak, a Lansford, Pa" prod uet, is the best blocker on the squad and often leads the inter- ference. Ills defensive ability Is be- yond reproach.
 He iS enlisted in the Navy VI program and will report for mid- shipmen training after graduation in February.
 The fleet gets another destroyer.

mans more by frequent raids deep
into the Reich than by an at
tempted invasion on land.
While the British have caused
substantial damage to some
German industrial areas, they
have not hurt Hitler enough TO
impel him to start a large-scale
air offensive against Britain. A
counteroffensive is the only an
swer TO our attacks, according TO
experts in aerial warfare.
For the time being there is no
indication that the Nazi high
command contemplates such a
move. But II air attacks from
Britain grow in intensity and
success, 1t is probable the Nazis
will have TO take countermeasures
Ny mass raids against the Brit
ish Isles. The necessity of such
operations may relieve NaZi pres
sure on the Russian front.
AS the rneather improves the
Russian high command expects
increasingly heavy air attacks by
the Germans, and the Soviet Is
prepared. 1t would be a great
help to Russia. however, If a si8-
able portion Of the German air
reserve could be engaged in

ing China is to give the Japanese
something to do elsewhere. Con-
tinued pressure on their bases and
lines of communication In the Pa
ciflc will draw of considerable ele-
ments OF their air and naval power.
Increased Anglo-American air
forces in India will tend to immo-
bilize the Japanese forces in Burma.
The uncertainty Of the Russian
situation makes it necessary for the
Japanese, even If they abandon tenn
porarily any idea of attacking Rus
sia, to keep strong forces immobilized
in the north. Every means should
be sought to accentuate these diver
sions and keep a. much Japanese
fighting strength employed else
where than in China as Is possible.
Two Ways to Give Direct Aid.
AS for direct aid to China, this
may come in two ways. 1t may
come by air transport from India,
and the completion of arrangements
for a fully organized air transport
line over the Himalayas should be
rushed. There can be no hope OF
finishing q road from India in time
to be of use this year.
The second means by which China
can be helped is by the overland
route from Russia, and the volume
OF supplies over this route can per-
haps be increased II arrangements
can be made with the Russian gov
ernment.
All the airplanes that the Chinese
can handle should be sent in; for
the demands on Japanese air power
in distant places will be great. and
even q small Chinese air force might
prove effective.
Whatever the means, however,
one thing seems clear: the United
Nations cannot afford to allow
China to be Knocked out. Her cry
for help must be answered.

Repercussions Feared.
An offensive in Europe may be
a spectacular operation at first.
But a repetition of what hap
pened in Norway and Greece, even
though British forces are now
far better prepared for the task,
would be fatal. 1t would put an
end to the hopes of the subject
nations who look to us for deliv-
erance and might even have dis
astrous repercussions among our
friends in the u. S. S. r.
Some of the British Commando
raids, like that on the Nazi sub
marine base at st. Nazaire, have
not turned out so favorabiy for
the Allies. When the Commands
landed At st. Nazaire some
Frenchmen, believing the raid
was the real thing, joined the
British, and when the latter with
drew, as Commando tactics re-
quire, the French were left at the
tender mercies of the Nazis.
While few technicians indorse
the idea Of a military action
against the continent of Europe
in the near future, there is no
question that an American
British air force is likely to open
up an air front sooner than LIS
generally believed possible.

Pennsylvania two Senators,
Republican James J. Davis and

did not do we'll in the primary
contests in that State on Tues
day. Senator Davis tried for the
Republican gubernatorial nomi-
nation and failed. Senator Guf-
fey put forward his. own partic-
ular candidate for the Demo-
cratic senatorial nomination, and
his candidate was defeated.
Both, however, continue members
of the Senate, with Senator Da-
Wis having two more years to
serve and Senator Guffey four.
In both the Republican and
Democratic primaries the "or-
ganization" candidates for the
gubernatorial nomination won.
Maj. Gen. Edward Martin, who
defeated Senator Davis, was
backed by the Republican State
Committee and, more important.

Senator Guffey have been at
swords points since 1898, when
Mr.. Lawrence, then Democratic
State chairman, turned his back
on demands of Senator Guffey's
friends that Senator Guffey be
nominated for Governor.
Too Early for Prediction.
What will happen next Novem-
Der when Gen. Martin and Mr..
Ross meet In the general election
it is still too early to predict
with certainty. Much is likely
to depend on conditions as they
then exist-especially with re-
gard to the progress Of the war.
Gen. Martin, until comparatively
recently on active service with
the Army and In command OF the
28th Division, attacked Senator
Davis because he had opposed
the Military Draft Act and the
Lease-Lend Act when those
measures were before the Senate.
To some extent, therefore, Sem
ator Davis defeat in the pri-
mary will be construed as a re-
buff to the isolationists.
There was, however, much
more than that in the defeat Of
Senator Davis and victory Of
Gen. Martin-from the point Of
view Of the Republican organiza-
ton, which was and is dominated
by the Pew-Grundy faction Of
the party. The organization was
determined that Senator Davis
whom it has opposed on three
separate occasions in earlier
primaries-should not be NOM
mated for the all important
Office OF Governor. 1t did not
wish to deal with Senator Davis
in Harrisburg. A Senator in
Washington Is not so important
especially during a Democratic
national administration - from
the point of view Of the organiza-
ton.

At any rate, the situation now ap-

Viewing the war in its larger

Of trying to knock out one of the
major United Nations this year. To
knock out the United States Is OBJ
viously impossible. Great Britain
is a possibility, but q risky one.
Most observers have thought in
terms of a two-front attack on Rus

termined on an attempt to knock out
China before the other Allies can
set up q new system of getting sup

Should they succeed. the Japanese
