Feerick Makes Debut
As Washington Coach
With Giant Team
By Bill Fuchs

The Washington Caps, with an
all-time home-court winning av-
erage of .843, and the Baltimore
Bullets, who have whipped em
here only once in two years Of
play, will open their National
Basket Ball Association season to-
night at Uline Arena at $50
o'clock.
The Caps have had things
pretty much their own way at
Uline. They lost only one game
of 30 there in their first season,
194647. They won 10 of "a at
home the following year and %
of % last season.
The Bullets, the Caps most
bitter rivals, have managed to
win five of the IA intercity clashes
the last two years and only one
in Washington.
The Caps will take to the floor
tonight with a new coach. four
new players and more height
than they've ever had before.
Bob Feerick, who captained the
team in its three previous years
of play, will make his debut as
coach. Feerick succeeded Arnold
(Red Auerbach, who since has
taken the job as assistant coach
at Duke University.
The Caps have five players who
top the 6-foot-3 mark, two more
than last year, when Kleggie
Hermsen (6-9. Jack Nichols
CD and Bones Mckinney (6-6)
represented the teams sky-scrap-
ing department.
Hermsen was traded this sum-
mer to Chicago and Mckinney Is
nursing a serious knee injury.
But Chuck Halbert (6-9), Mich
OILS and Chuck Gilmur and John
(Moose) Mandic, each ga, should
give the Caps adequate stretch.
Halbert, Gilmur and Mandic all
are newcomers, along with Chick
Reiser, who has been playing pro
ball Is years.
Johnny Norlander, who hasn't
missed a game with the Caps in
their three years of operation;

Plan Tricky Stuff
BY Lewis E. Atchison

Some Of the trick stuff the Red

use Sunday against the Pitts

You'll see much more Of Harry
Gilmer Sunday than In the last
several games, and LII Harry is
always tricky, but not always de-
liberately so. He busts a signal
now and then and has to run for
his life. The coaches would pre-
fer to have him call trick play
and make it work.
You also should see much more

pounds around too freely a couple

benched him to mediate on his
sins, but, with the rough, grud
Steeler line to meet this week, the
granite-jawed Arkalisan will be a
welcome addition to the forces up
front.
The Skins have q suitcase full
Of strategy that is practically
brand new. In camp they, the
coaches, let Hal Crisler and other
ends try their legs on end-around
plays that seemed to work. They
put Tommy Mont at halfback and
let him throw passes of fake end
runs. They had pitchouts that

Easier Than Stopping

By George Huber

Coach Bob Margarita of George
town and Coach Jim Leonard Of
Villanova are in agreement on at
least one thing, the ability of VII
lanova fullback Ralph Pasqua.
riello. Margarita saw Pasquariello
two weeks ago against Duquesne
and describes him as "as fine q
fullback as anybody could have"
Margarita was interested in him
and the other Wildcat players be-
cause they'll be in Washington on
Friday night to tangle with
Georgetown In the latter's home
coming game at Griffith Stadium.
Coach Leonard carries his re-
gard for Pasquariello even further
and tabs him as the greatest COL
legiate fullback he has ever seen
and likens him to the former Chi
cago Bears powerhouse, Bronko
Nagurski. That is high praise but
Pasquariello seems to fill the bill.
He's senior with three years of
varsity experience, weighs 225 and
stands 6 feet /. Even with all that
weight he has speed and last year
scored IL touchdowns. He has con-
tinued that fine work this season
while the Wildcats were compiling
their record of only one setback
and that Observation-Disclosures
six victories, and currently rates
21st among the country's rushing
leaders. He's carried 81 times for
a total Of 487 yards, an average OF
5.3 a crack.
This big fullback isn't the only
thing complicating Hoya prepara-
tions for Friday nights game,
however. Georgetown scouting
reports show the Wildcats with an
assortment of other fine backs
operating behind a terrific line
Villanova ostensibly uses the 7
formation. but it is very varied
one with spread ends and flank
ers. It makes the task of setting
up defenses a difficult one.
In addition to that hefty driving
fullback, Villanova is bringing at
least three fine running halfbacks
here tomorrow night in Nick
Frinzi, John Geppi and Joe Rog-
ers. Frinzi and Geppi particularly
are speed merchants. Up at villa
nova they call Geppi "Gep the
Jet" While a student at Mount
st. Josepf's in Baltimore he held
the Maryland 100 and 220-yard
scholastic dash titles, and in the
Harbor Bowl game this year
dashed 80 yards for a touchdown

EAST LANSING, Mich, Nov. 2.
michigan State, already a two
touchdown underdog, girded itself
today for its herculean task Sat-
urday of attempting to knock
Notre Dame off the national foot
ball perch.
The Spartans are a rough and
tough outfit, but all agreed that
realizing their objective calls for
a David and Goliath job.
Notre Dame has won 33 games
since last being defeated. This
year the Irish have Steamrollered
five opponents and have scored
1877 points to 80 for their rivals.
The 80 victories are a new collie
giate record.
Michigan State has won five
games and lost one this year.
Michigan defeated the Spartans
in their opener, but over the sea-
son Michigan State has accumu-
lated 1913 points to 48 for its
opponents.
52,225 to See Battle.
At any rate, Saturdays tussle
will top the Nations weekly grid
iron program.
Macklin Field here has been
sold out and capacity throng OF
52,225 will see the battle.
Some Midwestern observers be-
lieve Michigan State stands as
the most formidable barrier be-
tween Notre Dame and an unde-
feated season, even though the
Irish still must face North Caro-
lima, Iowa, Southern California
and Southern Methodist.
But Tulane also came up against
the Irish painted as a sturdy foe
with all the equipment necessary
to make Irish Coach Frank Leahy's
fears of defeat a reality.
Won in 10 Minutes.
The outcome of that game,
however. was on astounding 46-7
trouncing Of the then fourth
ranked Green Wave, billed as "the
South's best team in years." Never
did Notre Dame block. tackle and
run with such fury as in the first
half against stunned Tulane.
Leahy declared Tulane was the
strongest Irish opponent under his
regime. In 10 minutes the Irish
had them whipped to a FRAGILE.
Now Leahy again is sounding a
warning on the Irish practice
field. s.
Michigan State. he claims, is
vastly underrated. The Irish
Spartan tangle. he says, may be
settled by single point.
Brilliant Corps Of Backs.
While Michigan State has a
brilliant back in Lynn Chandnois,
Notre Dame has corps of swift,
slashing ballcarriers-Emil Sitko,
Larry Coutre, Frank Spaniel, Bill
Gay. Bill Barrett and Ernie Ia
leski.
Since Michigan States four
point loss to Michigan. the Spar
tans have had only one stern bat
tie in marching over Marquette,
Maryland, William and Mary,
Penn State and Temple. Mary
land was defeated, IA to Z.
Notre Dame, in addition to Tu-
lane, has brushed aside Indiana,

Only one foe scored more than
one touchdown. That was Pur-
ldue in a 35.12 defeat
