Saturday, October 24, 1942 CLOUDBUSTER Page Five Former Temple Stars in ’Buster Lineup vs. Owls PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Oct. 23— Philadelphia football fans who lead the nation in attendance at games played here by Temple and the Univer sity of Pennsylvania, will see three former Temple stars in action tonight with the Navy Pre-Flight School’s Cloudbusters from Chapel Hill against the Owls. The visiting cadets are Right End Frank Moister, Right Tackle Allan Sturges and Left Guard Joe Boyd— and each is determined to out-do the other in administering blocks and tackles to the huskies representing their alma mater. Sturges and Mois ter, playing side by side in defending against the power bucks, are in for a tough evening. The Owl line, averag ing some 210 pounds per man, has yet to be pushed around the field and can, at times, open large holes for its backs. Last week the Owls made the long trip to Dallas, Tex., where they were held to a 6 to 6 tie by an aroused Southern Methodist eleven. Leading the Owl attack is the 210- pound fullback, George Sutch, a line- smasher who has yet to be stopped this season when vital yardage was needed. The weight chart reveals the visitors will be out-weighed some 10 pounds per man—which means Lieut. Comdr. Jim Crowley’s running attack, paced by" Cadet Walter Zwiezynski and Ca- ‘He’s no flyer, but he'll make a heluva good tackle.” det Joe Martin, will have more than a few barriers barring its path to night. The Cloudbuster head coach indicated today he would send John Witkowski in at left end to start the game with Steve Hudacek at left tackle and Charles Pierce at right guard. Joe Kovach will start at cen ter.

He is Gene Davis, 190-pounder, who captained the University of Pennsyl vania team last season. Martin, who is expected to match Sutch yard for yard, will be the starting fullback with Len Eshmont and Zwiezynski manning the halfbacks. The loss to Boston College last week was the first for the Cloudbusters this season and came as the result of a 25- yard pass and a 35-yard run. The Navy scored when Hudacek blocked a punt and Witkowski fell on the ball in the Boston College end zone for the six points. The kick for conversion was missed, thus giving the Eagles their 1-point advantage when the final gun sounded. The Cloudbusters had defeated Ca tawba College, 13-2; Harvard, 13-0; North Carolina State, 19-7, and played the Georgia Navy to a 14-all tie before getting bumped by Boston College, the top team in the East. Beebusters Make Home Debut Against Camp Davis Today Today, on the Kenan Stadium turf,'^ the Cloudbuster “B” team makes its home debut against a tough Army squad from Camp Davis. The game will start at 1430. The B squad opened its season last Saturday by running over Guilford College, 46 to 0, but can’t afford to rest on its laurels in today’s clash. Camp Davis, using the line-busting “Wild Bill” Gallagher to lead its at tack, has exhibited power in four games and should prove a worthy foe. The Army squad is coached by Capt. H. A. Johnson who played under Lieut. Comdr. Jim Crowley at Michigan State College and later assisted him with the Spartan squad. Matching wits with Capt. Johnson will be an other of Crowley’s former pupils— Lieut, (jg) N. J. Pierce, one of the famous “Seven Blocks of Granite” at Fordham. Assisting Pierce is Ens. Dick Cassiano, former great back for the Pittsburg Panthers during the Jock Sutherland regime. Camp Davis lost its opener, 0 to 32, to The Citadel, then played Appala chian State to a 13-13 tie, dropped a 14-21 contest to the air-minded Cataw ba Indians and whipped High Point, 20 to 0. With the varsity Cloudbusters in Philadelphia and all the Big Five con ference teams on foreign soil, the game today looms as the outstanding gridiron attraction for North Caro lina fans. The ivy-covered rivalry be tween the Army and the Navy should flourish in force. Gallagher is expected to carry the offensive burden for the visitors and stopping him is a job the Navy tack- lers may find difficult. The 205-pound fullback was a star with Niles Kin- nick on Dr. Eddie Anderson’s fine Iowa university elevens of a few years ago. Directing the team’s play will be Lieut. Ed Holloway, former star at Temple university, who is an expert blocker and does most of the passing. Standouts in the line include John Melius, All-America tackle from Vil- Try CAROLINA PHARMACY The Rexall Store PHILIP LLOYD, Prop.

Joe is a former New Jersey Golden Gloves champion—which should be fair warn ing to the Navy blockers who go after him. Coach Pierce yesterday named Lane and Ellis at ends; Forbes and McAvoy, tackles; Gandley and McGahan, guai'ds; and Miller, center, to start in the line. The Beebuster backfield will consist of Emerson, quarterback; San- tin, left halfback; Keuffel, right half back; and Franks, fullback. Prior to the kickoff the cadet corps will march on the field in formation and proceed to their seats in the sta dium. The band will provide music and may perform during the halftime intermission. ’Buster Booters Face High Point Fresh from a 3-0 victory over Duke, the Pre-Flight soccer team is geared to topple a strong eleven representing High Point, in the game to be played today at 1530 on the drill field. Lieut. Earle C. Waters’ system of play, stressing an unusual type of at tack and defense, is working out to his satisfaction as the players become more familiar with it. Highlighting the at tack are Cadets Bush, Thompson, Sloan, Suess, and Robertson, all of whom have scoring punch. Defensively the Cloudbusters depend upon Knoeck- el, Steen, Tondorf, Kleckner, and the stalwart goal play of Hoffman and McGee. If the team lives up to the promise evidenced in parts of their initial con test last week, it will have a good chance of chalking up a second victory. Helldivers Increase Lead in Squadron Sports Competition By Cadet H. Wesley Bogle By emerging victorious in four of their five events last week, the Hell divers increased their first place lead in the squadron sports competition to 3 points and brought their season total up to 19. The best record of the week was com piled by the Buccaneers who annexed all five of their contests. These wins entitled them to the liberty award for Saturday, Oct. 17. The Coronados with points for the week ran their total point output to 16 and took over second place from the Catalinas. In soccer the Devastators annexed two more games to run their victory string to six and took over undisputed possession of first place. Previously they had been in a tie with the Cata linas, Wildcats, and Helldivers. A Helldiver victory in boxing coupled with a Buffalo defeat broke a tie be tween these two teams and the Hell divers now sport a victory skein of five. The fifth straight win for the Coro nado military track team enabled it to retain top position in that division. The Coronados continued to pace the football teams as they rolled to their third victory in as many starts. No swimming competition was held during the week.
