Southeastern Conference football
teams worked hard on fundamen-
tails Tuesday in preparation for
Saturdays games.
The surprising Florida Gators
concentrated on an offensive pass
ing attack and tried to set up a
defense to stop the sensational
passing Of Clemson quarterback
Don King.
Coach Bobby Dodd gave his
Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets their
longest scrimmage of the season
to get them ready for Louisiana
State University. For an hour the
first, second and third string var
sity teams took turns working
against the B teams and the
freshmen.
At Baton Rouge, Louisiana State
worked until dark on Georgia Tech
plays. Coach Gaynell Tinsley also
sent the tackles and guards
through charging and blocking
drills. Sid Fournet was moved to
the defensive left tackle post to
strengthen that side of the line.
The Georgia Bulldogs were en-
couraged by the return to practice
of left halfback Jimmy Campagna
who has beer out since before
the opening game this year with
a shoulder separation. He is ex-
pected to start against North Caro-

Sports
Roundup
By Gayle Talbot

The American viewer especially
likes the absence of timeouts IL
the Canadian game. He also likes
the Canadian rule which makes il
mandatory to try to run the ball
out when it is kicked into the end
zone. He likes the rouge-the single
point scored when the ball is
kicked out Of the end zone and
which is largely responsible for the
fact that there has not been a tic
score in the past 104 games played
in the Canadian League.
On the other hand, the Ameri-
can fan isn't so sure that he likes
the three-down Canadian rule.
Some do, but as many others COM
plain that it gives the attacking
team much less freedom Of action
than our four downs do. They say
the Canadian offense Is too prone
to settle into a run-pass-Nck rou-
tine on each sequence of downs.
What the American fan misses
most Is downfield blocking and
blocking in front of the receiver
Of punts. They like to see the ball
carrier get a chance for his life.
They are not too keen on the Cana
dian system of penalizing a down
for a rule infraction instead Of
stepping off yardage, as we do.
Broadly, though, the average
American set owner seems to be
willing to 80 on watching the
Canadian brand of football so lone
as it helps keep him away from
autumn yard work.

football season has reached rough.
ly its halfway point, and this seems
a likely point at which to find out
what the impact Of the more skit-
fish brand of ball played beyond
the northern border has been on
the great American television pub
lie.
NBC, which has sent out six
games and has six to go plus the
regular playoffs, is highly pleased
with the reaction. Its mail is aver
aging around 60 per cent of that
of last season, when the network
handled the NCAA's college Game
of the Week, the feature it is buck
ing now to- some extent with the
Canadian version.
"The figure is more impressive
when you realize that we haven't
been asking for written comment
the way we did last season." said
an NBC official. 1--WE asked for it
every game last year at our spon-
sor's request, but have mentioned
1t only twice from Canada"
While the thousands who have
expressed an opinion have COM
mended the network by a margin
of 10-1 for providing the early
Saturday afternoon entertainment,
they have split widely on their
liking for the Canadian game
that is, as compared with its
American forebear. Who knows but
what their reaction will result one
day In bringing the two games
more closely together?

Lou Little Says
Purdue's Win
Wasn't An Upset

NEW YORK R-Football upsets
are not upsets at all, says Column
bias Coach Lou Little, who re-
fuses to concede that the Antipla-
toon rule has proved the 'great
equalizer" Of the autumn sport.
Its no upset when Purdue
scores n points on Notre Dame, "
the bespectacled rinsmaster Of
Morningside Heights said. cts no
upset when South Carolina beats
Army and Army beats Michigan.
These are teams playing within
their own class and in this modern
game Of football the fortunes Of
a game shift swiftly = couple
Of good passes and 4 breakaway
run can turn defeat into victory.
81 think football games today
are won by superior coaching and
superior personnel. A team takes
advantage Of It's opportunities and
wins--but it's not an upset unless
the team Is playing out Of its
class"
Still a strong proponent Of the
unlimited substitution rule, Little
said this years al-star college
football game in Chicago proved
that the one-platoon system is net
leveler OF strength.
"The pros had to discard the
unlimited substitution rule and
play with the college restrictions, "
he said. sThis was supposed to
make 1t a closer game. Instead,
the pros Detroit Lions) won 31-6.

The Catholic times. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1951-current, 1954-01-29

Instead of openly vilifying the
Christian Faith, the new Moscow
regime of Premier Georgi Malen-
kov has resorted TO the device of
giving Catholics and other Chris
tian believers versions of the Scrip
lures which portray Christ as the
friend of communism.
The fine hand of Metropolitan
Nikolai of Krutitsky, high digni-
tary of the Russian Orthodox
Church, is detected in the new
Soviet maneuver. Frequently refer
red to as the Red Rasputin," this
strongly pro-Red churchman has
long been a powerful influence in
the shaping of Soviet anti-religious
policy.
Not only Christians, but eudd-
hisfs and adhsrenfs OF many 9TH
or faiths living under Red rule,
are the targets of the new drive

In fact one of the most striking
illustrations of Moscow's new tech
nique is TO be found in a recent is
sue of newspaper published in
Wet Nam, a largely Buddhist coun-
try where Catholics number less
than 100000 This was the story
of Christ as relayed by Wet Mimi
