play the best football he knows
how. the coaching staff can
hardly contain itself. Head
Coach Eddie Erdelatz is feeling
like he won the sweepstakes when
he didn't even know he had a
ticket.
High Praise From Erdelatz.
"This Echard." Erdelatz says,
"is the brainiest quarterback
we've had since I've been here.
He doesn't waste a play.
frankie Albert was sitting on
our bench during the Stanford
game and he said he hadn't seen
a college quarterback call a
game as good as that in a long
while"
Albert, former star quarter
back with the San Francisco
Forty Miners, is now telecasting
on the West Coast.
''This Echard," Erdelatz says,
"he,s the coolest. And another
reason we like him is that he's
not only good extensively, but
he's good on defense, too"
Two weeks ago nobody sus-
pected all these things about the
6-foot, 170-pound senior who
was up from the junior varsity
team. Echard was put in late
against Dartmouth in a despera-
zion move. He led the Middies
back to a landslide victory and
gained a starting berth against
Stanford last Saturday when he
again operated the T-formation
with distinction.
Hes been a tremendous sur
prise" Erdelatz says, "but we
knew he was d good quarterback.
He gained lot of experience
quarterbacking the iayvees last
year and Frank Foster. the jay
wee coach, did a terrific job work
ing with him"
Being called on to fill a need
at quarterback is old stuff to
Echard. He played end for two
years at Peoria Manual Train
ing High School, but in his SEN
ior year the coach asked him to
move behind center. The team
had run out of quarterbacks.
Everything turned out fine as
Echard piloted Peoria Manual to
a 100 record.
That experience at end,
Echard says. has been a tremen-
dous help to him on the throw
ing end. It also helps him, he
says, to appreciate the man on
the receiving end.
Echard's throwing has been
amazing. Counting a brief work.
out in the waning moments of
the opening game against Will
liam and Mary, he has COM
pleted 19 Of 80 passes for 2O2
yards and four touchdowns.
Fortunate on Receivers.
Were fortunate" Echard
says. 1--WE have four ends who
are terrific on offense-Ronnie
Beagle. Jim Owen, Roy Freeman
and Bill Smith. And our backs,
too, are good catchers."
Echard has no brothers, one
sister, a Peoria school teacher.
He will be married after his
graduation in June to his high
school sweetheart, Shirley Har-
din, now studying at the New
England Conservatory of Music
in Boston.
Dick, who wants to be a Navy
flyer, has some musical back
ground. himself. He played the
clarinet in his high school band.
He doesn't play it much any
more. But the tune he's play
ing at quarterback is the sweet
est music Erdelatz has heard in

be in an Eastern Division made
up of Washington, New York,
Cleveland and Boston. or they
could put us in the Western Di-'
vision with Chicago, Kansas City

"They can work it out either
way" continued Griffith, but
Baltimore and Washington must
be in opposite divisions or we'll
be hurting each other"
Griffith was unperturbed over
the possibility of increased travel
costs. 81 don't think it would

he said, "They had us hopping
from Washington to Chicago to

The Senators and Orioles could
encounter difficulty in being
placed in separate divisions.
