Soybean meal left as by-product
from extracting the oil is worth about
as much for livestock feeds as the oil
itself. Recent discoveries of ways to
make high-grade edible and drying
oils from soybean oil are likely to
provide incentives for growing soy
beans after importation of other veg
estable oils get back to prewar levels.
Soybean production in eastern Asia
will be big factor in the postwar
market.

That deceptive and dazzling ver-
sion of the T formation Georgetown
Prep's eleven is exhibiting this sea-
son actually is an adoption Of an
old formation and Coach Orrel
Mitchell is the first to admit 1t.
"It's really just simplification OF
the old Tennessee T." Mitchell says
1--WE line up with an unbalanced
line and the quarterback goes to
the weak side on running plays"
Coach Mitchell tried out the for
nation against Mount Vernon High
School In the season opener. but the
mud of Alexandria Stadium begged
down his lightning-fast backfleld
and fans couldn't get much OF an
idea concerning what promises to
be the top razzle- dazzle in scholastic
football this fall.
From observers at Garrett Park
however, reports trickled out about
a formation that is particularly
adapted to schoolboy play. The Ten
nessee r is easy to grasp, simple tn
operation and produces most OF the
deception of the more complicated
r formations without the attendant
hours of study required for those
stratagems.
In scrimmage yesterday, Coach
Mitchell exhibited his adoption OF
the formation and indications are
that most of the Little Hoyas' op-
ponents on q tough schedule have
plenty to worry about.
The prime requirements to make
the Tennessee T click are q heavy
line and q light, fast backfield.

both, In just the proper blend. In
