Unbeaten William & Mary To Find
Tough Going Against Cloudbusters
Williamsburg, Va., Nov. 20—Un
beaten William & Mary College, gun
ning for the Southern Conference
championship, goes outside the league
tomorrow for what may prove too
tough an assignment. The opponent
is the U. S. Navy Pre-Flight School
Cloudbusters from Chapel Hill, N. C.,
with a season’s record of seven vic
tories, one tie and one defeat to date.
With the Navy squad is a man every
football fan in the state of Virginia
knows well—Art Jones, deluxe half
back who sparkled for Richmond and
then starred with the Pittsburgh Steel-
ers in the National Professional Lea
gue. Jones has been named captain
of the Cloudbusters for tomorrow’s
clash here and he is expected to put
on a great show for the homefolks.
The Cloudbusters have been effec
tive this season in knocking off un
beaten teams—^which should be fair
Warning to the William & Mary hus
kies who are harboring visions of a
bid to a New Year’s Day bowl game.
Last Saturday afternoon, before
10,000 chilled fans ,at the Polo Grounds,
New York, the Cloudbusters had little
trouble downing oft-beaten Manhat
tan college, 17 to 0.
Walter Zwiezynski scampered 43
yards behind flawless interference for
the first Navy touchdown in the open
ing period and in the third stanza Hay-
''vard Sanford booted a 12-yard field
goal. In the fourth quarter the Cloud
busters staged a sustained 50-yard
drive that ended in a score when Mort
Landsberg broke over right guard
from four yards out. Sanford added
the conversions after each tally.
That William & Mary will give the
favored Cadets a busy afternoon is a
foregone conclusion. Coach Crowley
has indicated he holds tomorrow’s op
ponent in high regard. The W. and
M. line will average 210 pounds per
man and is active enough to make the
going tough on the ground for the
visitors. To offset this, Coach Crow
ley is expected to send his attack to
the air with Jones doing a majority
of the hurling.
The Navy starting lineup will have
Jones and Zwiezynski at halfbacks.
Bill Krywicki, quarterback, and Lou
Bufalino, fullback. The line will have
Bob King and John Witkowski at ends;
Steve Hudacek and Joe Frank, tackles;
Joe Boyd and Charles Pierce at the
guards and Joe Kovach, center.
Academy Team Beats
Beebusters, 6 to 0
While the Cloudbusters were taking
Manhattan into camp, 17 to 0, the Bee
busters found the going la. little tougher
and dropped a game to the Naval Aca
demy’s “B” team, 6 to 0, last weekend
at Annapolis.
A long pass in the third period set
up the winning touchdown for the
Academy team.

CADET JOE MARTIN, ’Buster fullback, and Lt. Comdr. Jim Crowley,
head football coach, chat about the game this afternoon at Williamsburg,
Va., between the Cloudbusters and William & Mary College, or maybe
only about Pre-Flight football in general. Interviewed separately, each
gives his view on the value of Pre-Flight football in the article below.
Coach Crowley, Cadet Martin
Give Views on Navy Football
Football to Lieut. Comdr. Jim Crow
ley, Cloudbuster headman, and to one
of his better known pupils, Cadet Joe
Martin, the ex-Cornell flash, is more
than just football this year. To them
it is a game that is getting the cadets
in shape to fight the Japs, Germans or
come what may.
“Seventy-five per cent of the boys
who are sent here have never played
football,” says Lieut. Comdr. Crow
ley. “They are not accustomed to con
tact work, and they don’t know what
it means to get knocked down. After a
little football they know that a charg
ing blocker or tackier is not going to
hurt anyone. They get hit and they
like to hit. That’s football, and that’s
war.”
Pointing out that he had always felt
the value of football, Lieut. Comdr.
Crowley stated that watching the
cadets play the game has convinced
him they were learning a lot on the
gridiron. “Fliers must have coordina
tion, be able to cooperate and be
tough,” said the Cloudbuster mentor.
“There is not a better sport in the
world than football to develop these
three things.”
Varsity football at the Pre-Flight
School differs little from college ball.
The players are in better condition,
Lieut, Comdr. Crowley tells us, and
they always play a better game in the
second half. “We didn’t think the boys
would show any of that ‘do or die’
spirit for we had no ivory walls and
football tradition back of us,” said
Crowley. “The spirit, though, is excep
tionally fine. It compares favorably
with most college teams I’ve seen,”
Varsity football players at Chapel
Hill don’t spend much time on foot
ball. Other sports that they pax-tici-
pate in help to get them in shape. The
hour of practice each day is devoted
to the execution of plays, and football
fundamentals.
Typical of the cadets on the varsity
squad is Joe Martin, fullback, who
starred at Cornell last year. The big
195-pounder could have stayed in col
lege another year, but the yearn to
fly and help defeat the Axis was so
great that he left Carl Snaveley and
Cornell for V-5 and Chapel Hill.
“We play just as hard, but the ma
terial is better here,” Joe readily ad
mits. “We don’t have a lot of plays,
because we don’t need them. With our
power a half dozen good plays seem
to get results. A weak ball club has
to take chances. Ours doesn’t.”
Cadet Martin told us that in college
he could see pictures of previous games
and see his own mistakes. Here there
is no time to study football pictures,
Joe plays more than football. As a
cadet he must swim, play soccer, wres
tle, box, and run the obstacle course
among other things. He likes the ob
stacle course best and feels that with
the possible exception of swimming the
other sports help to improve his co
ordination on the football field.
