Game, Weiss Says
Nv the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
Only the Army can save college
football from folding up, Sammy
Weiss, Representative from Pennsyl-
vania, professional grid referee and
former Duquesne star, declared to-
day
AT this late date, there IS only
one thing that can save the sport
and that is for the Army to give its
trainees the go-ahead sign" said
Representative Weiss in an inter-
view.
The Army has 10000 young men
in colleges undergoing special train
ing as engineers, medical officers and
in other technical pursuits. How
ever, Army officials said only last
week that the schedule set for these
soldiers simply doesn't allow enough
time for football much as they'd like
to arrange it.
Maryland Stirs Discussion.
Their reaction came when the
University of Maryland carded an
eight-game schedule, expressing
allowed to join the squad.
In recent weeks, number of
colleges have announced they would
not be able to continue football be-
cause all their mature players were
in uniform and they felt the IT.
year-olds would not fill the breach.
| Weiss, chairman of an informal
committee that has been urging the
War Department to allow Army
College trainees to participate in
intercollegiate games, was gloomy
about the outlook.
Il hear that when the decision
is made, it may not be favorable to
! football" Weiss said.
Could Find Time.
II have discussed that time factot
with numerous Army officers and
they say the boys could devote an
hour or two day to football with
out interfering with class room
work In fact the boys are the
most concerned of all about giving
up the game
West Point officials have declared
their enthusiasm for continuing the
sport, and the cadets will play a
schedule this autumn.
What I can't understand is how
West Point and Annapolis and Navy
Pre-Flight and Navy trainees can
