Howard Eleven Opens
Against B|uefie|d;
Sees Big Season
By Milton G. Bronch

Howard University will make
the first public display of its 1949
football wares tomorrow when the
Bisons tangle with the Bluefield
State Teachers in Howard Sta
dium at 2 pm.
Bluefield, which has not downed
Howard in a postwar engagement.
took on a new coach this season.
Sam Taylor. and has built q wall
of secrecy around the West Vir-
ginia training camp. Taylor. for
mer grid boss at Virginia Union
U. and a star Northwestern end
of the early '20s, has flelded noted
football teams in the four major
Negro intercollegiate loops and the
Blues are expected to give the
Bisons greater test than the
200 loss Of last year. However,
tomorrow Taylor will be facing
the only coach he never has de-
feated, Howard's Eddie Jackson.
The Bisons ended three weeks
of intensive drill this afternoon
with a light workout. They will
employ a two-platoon system
against the invaders.
Howard's defensive line. which
averages we'll over 225 pounds, is
one of the heaviest in the country
and will be spanked by two fresh
man behemoths. a 270-pound ALI
State tackle from New Haven,
Conn. Ken Redmon. and a 262-
pound All-Chicago guard. Milt
Barnes. They are reputedly the
biggest duo in Negro football.
Hillary Thompson. 1875. and Cliff
Lee. 1913. will operate the wing
posts, while 227-pound Clarence
Gilkes, a veteran with four years
service at tackle; Cliff McFadden,
a 236-pound sophomore guard,
and Dick Adams. 220-pound CEN
ter. complete the bastion.
Offensively, Howard boasts a
fast 205-pound forward wall and
can draw a veteran backfield from
Slick Abrams, Bob Minton. Chris
Robertson, Virg Anderson. Bill
Hall, Andy Carr and Joe Graves.
with Chuck Ross, Ernie Davis and
Larry Carter alternating at the
quarterback slot.
However, the Bisons still suffer
Ia lack of depth at end, due pri-
marily to the absence from school
Of Zelmo Barbee and Walt Nc
Claim and the late arrival of first
stringer Ralph Spencer. There
likewise remains a vulnerability
to aerial attack. The problem of
Ian offensive running mate for
Otto Jordan, crack guard, has
been solved in Leon Hill, q rugged
l90-pounder from Amber, Pa.
Morgan State, Howard and West
Virginia State have been named
the three leading contenders in
this years race and the Bisons
could see their sun, which began
to rise in 1916. reach the zenith
this season.

Michigon-Michigon State Draw
Seen: MARYLAND Is Favored

| Bostonians will be treated to the
first appearance of the No. l ad-
herent of the split T formation
as Oklahoma invades Boston Col
lege. From this corner it looks
like Oklahoma in one of the week
ends highest scoring games.
New Englanders will enjoy the
victories of Boston University. Yale
and Holy Cross at the expense Of
Syracuse, Connecticut and George
town.
The East will suffer in inter-
sectional struggles as Stanford and
Texas subdue Harvard and
Temple. Top-fiight Eastern con-
tenders. Army, Columbia and Cor
nell. should remain as such by
overpowering Davidson, Amherst
and Niagara. The seaboard's s
closest conflicts will see Villanova
and Pittsburgh edging out Penn
State and William and Mary. We
leave the area with the selections
Of Colgate, Rutgers and Princeton
to defeat Buffalo, Kings Point
and Lafayette.
Favorites in the Southern and
Southeastern Conferences will
make their debuts tomorrow and we
shall be most interested In hear
ing how Tulane downs Alabama
and North Carolina defeats North
Carolina State. "Breathers" are
no longer APPARENT on the major
ity of southern schedules and i'm
portant matches support Missis-
sippi, Georgia Tech. Kentucky and
Mississippi State to best Auburn,
Vanderbilt. L.S.U. and Tennessee.
Duke, Georgia. Maryland and
Florida should not have quite as
much difficulty with Richmond.
Chattanooga. Virginia Tech and
The Citadel.
Southwestern defending cham
pion Southern Methodist will have
to go all out before downing Wake
Forest. Baylor and Rice should
make it unanimous over Southern
Conference members as they upset
South Carolina and high riding
Clemson. T. c. U. and Texas A. &
M. will make their title aspirations
known by subduing Oklahoma A.
& NJ. and Texas Tech.
Our own Fighting Irish open
the season tomorrow as we well
come Indiana into the Notre Dame
Stadium. Particular concern is
manifested over the large number
Of boys from the South Bend area
on the Hoosier squad. Such out
standing local lads as Ernie Hug
gett, Bob Stebbins. Slug" WI

ston and Ernie Kovatch are very
likely to provide us with some un-

Rain Keeps Gates Low
As Yanks Trim Dons,
Eagles Nip Bulldogs
BY the Asseeiatsd Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-Although
hampered by rain. the opening of
the 1949 professional football sea-
son in New York last night was
somewhat Of q frost.
Separated by only the Harlem
River the National Football League
and the rival All-America Con-
ference put on their openers in the
Polo Grounds and Yankee Sta
dium. respectively.
A sparse 8,246 watched at the
Polo Grounds as the Philadelphia
Eagles. NFL champions, beat the
New York Bulldogs formerly the
Boston Yanks). 7 to o. At Yankee
Stadium. 14.437 turned out to
watch the Brooklyn-New York
Yankees nip the Los Angeles Dons.
l0-7, In the AAC contest.
A first-period touchdown by
Bosh Pritchard stood up for the
Eagles. The lightning like half
back scooted 1s yards after Z
minutes Of play. The teams then
spent the rest Of the evening
struggling through the rain.
The Bulldogs glamorous trio
Of quarterbacks-Bobby Layne,
Johnny Rauch and Bob Demoss-
were completely nullified by condi-
tions and charging Eagle unemen.
Layne and Demoss threw one
pass between them-an incom-
pletion-and Rauch. touted Geor-
gia star, did not play. The Bull
dogs had only one first down
over the sloppy field.
Like their baseball cohorts, re-
placements won the game for the
Yankees.
