son here this afternoon against
Miami of Ohio, with the Colo
malls needing an upset victory
to take Coach 30 Sherman over

Sherman. starting his fifth
season as boss of the Colonials,
has a 17-17-2 record. His oppo-
site number at Miami, Johnny
Pont, is making his debut as q
varsity coach.
The Colonials entered the
game as one-touchdown under

of the 1854 season., CIV is in the

part Of a 5-4 season. Miami held
its opposition scoreless in its
last three 1855 games. while CIV
failed to score the last two
times out.
The ColonialS, however, think
they have enough punch to gel
on the scoreboard this time. ThC
CIV line will average S pounds

veloped scoring potential from al
