goes like this, "A famous phil

looked upward in admiration

we are actually living on a

Fox Passing in Drill
Raises CIV Hopes for
West Virginia Game

George WaShington's hopes of
upsetting West Virginia Saturday
at Morgantown may depend on an
Improvement in its passing at
tack. The air game really was
sharp in yesterdays practice.
Quarterback Ray Fox did most
of the passing and his work was
better than it has been all year.
Over one stretch, he connected
with eight in a row, mostly long
ones. Although the coaches real
lie it was just a practice session
and that things will be tougher in
a real game, they were very
pleased with the workout. Fox
was throwing the ball hard and
accurately and his receivers were
catching expertly.
In last weeks 1920 tie with
Virginia Military. Fox managed
only two completions in 13 at
tempts. but yesterday he appeared
to have regained the form he had
earlier in the season.
Safer Proving Helpful.
The ColonialS also have Skinny
Safer, freshman halfback from
Fairfax High School, available as
. passing threat. He tried passing
for the first time last week and
was successful with all three of
his toSSeS. One went for q touch
down.
Safer appears q real conner in
CIV football. He is the same
youngSter who in the opening
game ran for a 50-yard touch
down the first time he got his
hands on the ball.
That Safer is developing into
a star is no surprise. He was one
of the finer schoolboy passers in
Virginia last year from Fairfax
Highs T-formation quarterback
spot. He won honorable mention
on the All-State team and several
colleges were after him. His small
size-he's only 5-foot-7 and
weights 168 pounds-waS against
him, however. Dick Johnson. CIV
line coach, was Fairfax coach last
year and he brought Safer with
him to the Colonials this year.
Shines as Offensive Back.
Safer also is an outstanding
defensive back and Coach Bo Sher-
man Of CIV had him at safety for
the first three weeks of practice
this fall. Bob Sturm came along
to take that job, however, and
Safer was shifted to halfback on
offense. He's filled in creditably
as substitute for Len Ciemniecki,
speedboy Of the squad, on several
occasions and with Ciemniecki
somewhat battered, Safer is due
for more and more playing the
rest of the way.
The injury situation at CIV is
q bit better. X-rays show that
Tackle Tom Flyzik's knee injury
is a bruise and stretched ligament
and not a torn cartilage as at first
feared. The team physician says
Flyzik can play this week if he
really wants to, although he ad-

he will play.

Navy Defense AIerted
To Expect Anything
From Notre Dame
BY the Associated Press

ANNAPOLIS, Oct. 29.-Navy's
football team is being prepared
to expect almost any variety of
ATTACK from Notre Dame in Sat-
urday's game at Cleveland.
Coach Eddie Erdelatz ran his
MiddieS through one of their
toughest drills of the season yes
terday, finishing up under the
lights. The various Notre Dame
offensive styles, as charted
through five earlier games by
Navy scouts, were thrown at the
Navy defensive platoon.
Navy coaches hope their de-
fensive line will continue the good
work shown last week in a TT
tie with Pennsylvania. 1t limited
Penn to 100 yards on the ground.
That was close to what the Middle
defenders were doing earlier in
the season until they ran up
against Maryland and dropped a
1877 encounter.
Helping the defensive platoon
yesterday was the return of Tackle
Hugh Webster and Linebacker
Jack Wilmer. both of whom were
injured against Maryland and who
missed last weeks Penn game.

platoon working on new wrinkles

There was a time when Bennie
Oosterbaan used to catch passes
for Michigan-he was one of their
all-time great receivers. Nova
days, during the fall, he advises
others on the art of catching 'em
at Michigan. And here's some
other fall advice from this famous
coach:
"At the first sign of cold, I put
'Prestone' anti-freeze in my car.
Then I know I'm safe from freez-
ing weather, rust and foaming
until spring. And I don't have to
worry about any warm spells"
One shot Of "Prestone" brand
anti-freeze lasts all winter-with
no freeze-up, no boil-off, no loss of
anti-freeze. No other anti-freeze
gives your car the same complete
protection all winter long!
