VIM LOSE OR DRAW
Notre Dame Hurting
For a Big Victory

WHO EVER WOULD HAVE prophesied
the day when Notre Dame would be found
in need Of victory over Navy to rate in
clusion among the top 20 or 80 football
teams? This is the position Of the Irish
tomorrow at South Bend. They're desper-
ate, they're hungry, and If they don't pick
up another big win or two they may be
greeting a new head coach next season.
Navy and Notre Dame started playing
In 1927 and the series remains the longest
continuous intersectional rivalry In college
ball. Most of the years Notre Dame was at
or near the top. No team, much less q
service academy, was expected to stand up
to the Irish.
Nor did the Middies, as far as winning
often was concerned. Even with 500 rec
ord in the last four games, they've won
only eight Of SO from the Irish. The only
time the Middies had an edge was during
the World War II years, and then Navy
gave some of it back to the 4-Fs they were
playing An unflattering number Of ath-
envy life, then detected.
SOME NAVY TYPES WERE all for
dropping Notre Dame but majority shud-
dered, at the thought. Next to Army it was
the biggest money-maker on the schedule,
any season. Tomorrow it still ranks as the
No. box-office show, but this time the
Irish are underdogs.
Beaten three times, Notre Dame is in
dire need Of win over high-ranking
team and Navy will be the last one it is apt
to face. Depending upon which of the silly
polls you believe, Navy either is No. or
No. S.
For Hugh Devore it's an important
match. Devore'S only the interim coach at
South Bend, the fellow who succeeded Joe
Kuharich. This Is not the first time for
Devore, who served in the same capacity
during WV II when Frank Leahy was
in the Navy. When man reaches 50 he
can UNDERSTANDABLE be concerned as to
whether he's ever going to be permanent.
An even break for the season might
win Devores security, but time is running
out and the oppoSition-Navy Pitt, Michi-
gan State, Iowa and Syracuse-is getting
no softer.
IT'S BEEN AN ERRATIC path the
Irish have followed so far. They barely
were bumped by Wisconsin in 1919 deci-
sion, and came closer yet against Purdue,
7-6 winner. Next came the brightest day
Of all, when they upset Southern Cal, 17-14,
although by that time the bloom was off
the use rose.

The idea that everybody's
really buckling down to serious
business win be presented to
the old grads at Maryland's
Homecoming tomorrow. The
football team seems determined
to make a lasting impression
on Penn State and the students
seem out to do the same with
nom and pop.
The Homecoming theme for
the floats and displays will be

any way you want to make it
applicable to the football team
against Penn State.
With two straight victories
behind them, the Terps win go
into this one with something
new this Recommendation.
They have confidence in them
selves now which they didn't
have early In the season." says
Coach Tom Nugent, whose 1861
club used a Homecoming date,
incidentally, to upset Penn
State.
Whether this momentum,
plus Dick Sinners passing and
Jerry Fishman's running, will
be enough to crack the Nittany
Lions staunch defense is the
puzzle that'll lure q near-ca-
pacity crowd Of $4,000 to Byrd
Stadium. The kickoff is at 1 80
pm. with the Homecoming
parade starting at l1:45 am.
Sinner Sharp in Practice
Sinner, who has thrown
four touchdown passes In his
last two games. has looked
sharp all week In practice. He
ranks seventh nationally in
passing and likes to hook up
with TANKER Daryl Hill. his
top receiver. who has five
touchdowns and 26 receptions.
That puts Hill sixth nationally.
The Terps also count on
Fishman, the 220-pound full
back. to get key short yardage
and keep the linebackers glued
up close. instead Of dropping
back to flood the passing zones.
Although Penn States Of
tense isn't to be taken lightly,

oped four bowl clubs. ranks hin

Navy Fights Irish
On Ominous Date

never played against Roger
Staubach at his best. He was
the starting Navy quarterback
in Philadelphia last year, but
that game was played in q
pouring rain and q 40-knot
wind and Navy decided to cur
tail its passing game.
Hugh Devore. the Notre
Dame coach. has had quite q
chore deciding about his quar-
terbacking. He's used five diff
ferent players and apparently
has settled on Frank Budka.
At least Budka's name isn't
followed by cor" when Devore
lists his starting backfield for
tomorrow. 1t win be Bill Wolski
or Ron Bliey at left half, Char
ley O'Hara or Paul Costa at
right half and Joe Kantor or
Alan LOBBY at fullback.
Budka isn't the same type Of
quarterback as Staubach-nor
as good. He's thrown only 20
passes and completed II, good
for 1872 yards and three touch
downs. He's picked up 1O4
yards in 80 rushes and has had
two passes intercepted.
Record May Fan
Compared to these figures,
Staubach has completed 70 Of
100 passes for 1858 yards and
four touchdowns and has run
for 248 more yards making him
footballs total offense leader
with 1905 yards.
Besides Staubach, Navy has
one other distinct advantage
set backfield Of Skip Orr and
John Sal at the halfbacks and
Pat Donnelly at fullback.
This is the game In which
Staubach most likely will set q
Navy total offense record.
George Welsh gained 1,348
yards over 10 games In 1855
and Roger Is only a yards shy
Of that now.
For the second straight week
and the fifth time during the
season Navy's line win be out
weighed. The Notre Dame line
averages 220 pounds and the
Middies scale I'll. but this
might not be as important as 1t
looks.
The Southern Methodist line
was smaller, but 1t also was
faster.

offense has often kept the de-
tenders working overtime. Md
dle-guard Glenn Ressler, q
226-pound future farmer, and
Don Caum. who tops q second

are spotlighters.
Bounces Back
Like the Terps, Penn State
claims some momentum of its
own. After hitting q mid-sea-
son snag, the club bounced back
last week in the second half to
whip West Virginia, 20-9. That
gives 1t q Az record to Mary
lands "a mark, which helps
account for the six-point spread
in favor Of the invaders.
According to its scouting re-
port, Maryland expects most
trouble extensively from Quar-
terback Pete Liske's rollout
pass-run options. He scored
twice last year in q 23-7 tri-
umph over the Terps.
Gary Klingensmith, who
plays despite almost total deaf
ness. is the Nittany Lions lead
ing rusher with q AZ per carry

Weber and Ed Stuckrath, the
other two backs, were elevated
to the starting cast this week.

from getting too much too
quick" says Nugent. with the
ball control they use. II they
get q couple Of tbs ahead, it's

The Terps' second unit has
had to undergo Q shuttle this
week with Tackle Tom Cichow-
ski and Guard Matt Arbutina
sidelined by injuries. Arbutina

Some Questions for FHA

Serious and perplexing questions
have been raised, in time of relative
prosperity, concerning sharp increase
in defaults and foreclosures on home
mortgages insured by the Federal HouS-
ing Authority.
According to study by a Baltimore
Sun reporter, mortgage payment de-
faults have scared 430 per cent in the
last five years, and by the end of last
September FILA had on hand 36,338
unsold foreclosed homes. In the same
month, 43,168 other home-owners we're
delinquent in payments, with the ex-
pectancy that about 40 per cent event.
ually would be foreclosed.
While the housing market in gen.
eral has slipped from its high post World
War II activity, the FILA foreclosure rate
Is estimated to be three times greater
than that of conventional mortgages.
Whether this is due to the accessibility
OF the FHA lending plan which, after all,
Is the reason for the agency's existence,
or whether there have been too many
poor risks, a tough tightening up is in
order.
Although insisting that the agencys
overall financial picture is sound,
Commissioner Neal ]. Hardy agrees there
is room for improvement. In a letter
to the Sun he said major steps have
already been taken to limit future
acquisition of property (foreclosures)
by strengthening the quality of FHA's
underwriting procedures, especially the
review Of the credit characteristics of
borrowers" This is a gobbledygook
equivalent Of saying that past proce-
dures have been slack.
FHA also owes the public some ex-
planation of S4.4-million Fort Worth
housing project for elderly persons which
appears to be headed for bad times. This
project was said to have been approved
by the Washington office over the pro-
test Of the Fort Worth field office, which
was unwilling to justify the building Of
343 more homes when 5000 were already
forecloSed and standing empty in the
Texas city. Now there is doubt whether
the new Fort Worth houses, expected to
rent for about Sis, will ever see as much
as so per cent occupancy. Where goeth
our tax dollars? Many of them, 1t would
seem, have gone down the FILA drain.

Quebec. Still another, about
2 billion years old is found
in Alberta and northwestern
Canada.
A hitherto unknown 25-
month sunspot cycle has
been reported by Air Force
scientists.
The cycle generally recog-
nized. when solar activity
goes from minimum to maxi
mum and back, is II years.
1t is closely associated with
weather and other terrestrial
phenomena. The newly found
cycle seems to be super-im-
posed upon it.
There was found recently,
according to an Air Force de-
scription Of the discovery, a
26-month cycle in the direc-
ton Of winds in the stratos-
phere over the equator. Drs.
Ralph Shapiro and Frederick
Ward of the Air Force Cam
bridge Research Laboratory
set out to Investigate the
phenomenon.
Long SunspOt Record
A long and consistent rec
ord Of sunspot numbers has
been kept over 200 years. In
analysis Of these records, says
the report. Drs. Ward and
Shapiro uncovered evidence
Of a periodicity in sunspot
cycles in addition to the nor
NAL ll-year cycle. This cycle
covers a 25-month period.
"The historical sunspot
data was also analyzed in so
ana l0O-year seRments. The
25-year cycle appears in each
OF these sub-segmentS. The
consistency Of this cycle is
more than could be expected
by chance. Unfortunately,
these results throw little light
on the stratosphere wind
cycle. Perhaps II is Just as
well. Had the sunspot cycles
coincided with the 26-month
wind cycle II would have been
necessary TO explain why the
much more pronounced IL
year cycle Of sunspot activity
does not exert an influence
on equatorial winds
