Page Four CLOUDBUSTER Saturday, September 9, 1944 ^‘Lack of Experience” To Hurt Gloudbusters Improvement Expected By Mid-Season “Lack of college experience will make the Gloudbusters weak dur ing the first half of the season,” Lieut. Comdr. Glenn Killinger, head football mentor, predicted this week. “But," he was quick to add, “you can count on them to be plenty tough by mid-season." Otto Graham, the six foot, 190- pound All-American football and j basketball player from North western, will be the big offensive threat, while Kermit Anderson, an end who was captain-elect at Col gate, and Kermit Atkinson, a guard who starred at Furman, are' the line standouts. j Atkinson, who weighs but 185, has caused Lieut. Paul Bryant, line coach, to stop worrying about the right guard position. “He's light, but he’s aggressive,” Coach Bryant says of Atkinson, “and he’s one of the hardest workers on the squad.” Frank Aschenbrenner, who is expected to start at left half, play ed varsity ball at Marquette Uni versity as a freshman, and he’s considered a great prospect. So is Melbourne Sheehan, former fresh man star at the University of Missouri, who will team with An derson at end. Austin Gandy, who weighs 180, stands 5 ft. 9 in., and hails from Soso, Mississippi, is slated for one of the tackle spots. He played previously at Jones County Junior College. Cadets with no college experi ence, but slated for the first team, include William Clements, Los Angeles, Calif., who will be Atkin son’s running mate at guard; Ben Lum, a Petersburg, Va. lad, who will start at tackle, and Charles Military Field Mass Is Held SURVIVAL THE THIRD ANNUAL military pontifical field Mass was celebrated last Sunday morning in the Forest Theatre with His Excellency, the Most Reverend Eugene J. McGuinness, DD., Bishop of Raleigh, of ficiating. Pictured above is part of those in attendance, while in the insert is shown part of the service. Coleman, of Concora, N. J., at cen ter. Rounding out the backfield will be G. V. Fellabaum, El Paso, Texas, at fullback, and William Wilson, McKeesport, Pa., at right half.

To accomplish this objective, nature was used as the principal textbook, with the men put on their own to practice various travel methods and techniques of living off the land. To indicate just a few of the activities, the men learned how to prepare ingenious traps for snar ing food on the hoof, to construct diflTerent tjT)es of shelter, to navi gate by starlight, swim in rapids, rapel down cliffs, construct rafts, distinguish edible plants from poisonous ones, protect oneself against physical hazards such as extreme heat and cold, and against hazards from small forms of life such as malaria bearing mosqui toes, flukes, and fungus infections. With emphasis on personal initiative, each of the men was sent on an individual forage trip last Tuesday with the responsi bility of checking in with eight items at evening mealtime, includ ing a 10-ft. bark fishing line, K- Ration key fish hook, one frog, fish, or snake, one fresh water mussel, one Indian turnip tuber, one arrowhead tuber, one Solo mon’s seal root, and one cupfull of silver berries. With all the seriousness of the course, there was humor, too, such as when one member of the group hiked 14 miles to the Haw River Camp Site last Monday only to find on arrival that his unusually heavy rucksack had been gener ously weighted with rocks by his fellow travelers.
