Just how good is Fordham? No
body seems to know.
The answer probably will come
today, before dusk settles over
West Points Niche Stadium.
"The boys have exceeded my
fondest hopes" Fordham Coach
Ed Danowski said. We've looked
great but we haven't met a team
that ranks with Army. I'm afraid
our bubble is going to burst"
The unheralded Rams have
looked good. indeed. whipping four
rivals handily, including a good
Georgetown team.
Even the odds-makers are
stumped. Afraid to get trapped
by so-called smart money"
they've simply refused to give out
a line on the game.
They've rated all-conquering
Notre Dame q two touchdown
favorite over, q sturdy Michigan
State eleven In what shapes up as
the most important game Of the
week.
The Spartans have run over five
opponents since they dropped a
narrow .7-3. decision to Michigan
in their opener and are figured to
extend the Irish.

in the Associated Press poll. are
heavy favorites to whip Kansas
State; California, No. 4. is a four
touchdown choice over Washing
ton State, and rebounding Michi-
gan, No. s, is . 14-point favorite
over Purdue, which whipped Min

week.
Undefeated Baylor, rated No. s,

in Texas. Cornell, seventh-rank-
ing team and best in the Ivy
League. has q breather in Syra-

Arkansas. and Southern Method

Michigan State is rated No. 10.
So little regard did Army off,
cials have for Fordham last spring
that they transferred the game,
originally scheduled to be played
at the Polo Grounds, New York,
to Niche Stadium, which seats
only $1,000.
just how much Army Coach
Earl Blaik changed his mind stems

toon football.
Not long ago the Associated Press polled
coaches all over the country asking why the
present-day scoring binge Some blamed the
platoon system; others denied that it played
any part. Blaik was among the latter group.
"All the proof you need it that Notre Dame
doesn't use it," he said. THE only reason for
these big scores, in my opinion, is that the
teams beaten were not as good as they were
