Virtually every one Of the 80 who

attendance as one Of the major i'm

athletics-but the experts were at
odds on how to interpret this fact.
In general they agreed that 1t was
not a lack of interest In sports.
Rather 1t was the difficulty of travel
and the enrolment of great multi

armed services and in war work.

MIAMI, Fla, Dec. 24.-Boston
Colleges most moderated football
player may be on the sidelines New
Year Day, and the possibility is
giving Coach Denny Myers his big
gest worry about the Orange Bowl
game against Alabama.
In Myers opinion, Fullback Mickey
Connolly Is the lad whose contribu-
ton to the Eagles success hasn't
been given proper recognition. Now
that Connolly has a muscle separa-
ton in his shoulder and is a doubtful
starter, Myers is afraid that his value
to the team will become apparent too
late.
The story of the overlooked full
back dates back to the Sugar Bowl
game of 1941, when Connolly, then a
sophomore. scored a touchdown to
help B. c. down Tennessee.
Built Him Up to High.
well, right away everybody
started building Mickey up as a
super player" Myers related. "They
blew him up to proportions too big
for any man, so when he couldn't
possibly live up to expectations his
junior year the balloon burst.
This year he has been superb. He
Is one of our best blockers, he's
strong on defense and he, has thrown
I don't know how many touchdown
passes.
If Connolly's shoulder doesn't re-
act to sunshine and treatment his
place will be taken by the tempera-
mental Paul Lucas.
