Former “B” Squad
Back Is Pre-Flight
Surprise Package
Coach Glenn Killinger had sev
eral reasons to smile following
the Cloudbuster’s 33-to-18 victory
over Georgia Pre-Flight last Sat
urday afternoon at Athens.
To start things, the Cloud-
busters won the game in the first
half instead of waiting until the
fmal seven seconds, as was the
case when the two teams played
here three weeks ago.
In the second place there was
the surprise performance of Cad
et John Pearce, who started the
game at quarterback. Only last
week Pearce was moved up from
the “B” squad to the varsity, and
his addition aided the Cloud-
buster cause considerably.
Is Triple Threat
Also wecome was the return to
action of Frank Aschenbrenner
and G. V. Fellabaum. On the side
lines for the past month with in
juries, these two backs did them
selves proud against the Sky-
crackers. Fellabaum scored one
touchdown and set up another
while on the receiving end of one
of Otto Graham’s tosses. Aschen
brenner was a triple threat—run
ning, passing and kicking with
the form that made him one of
the outstanding backs on the squad
in early season.
“Our boys played by far their
best game of the season”. Coach
Killinger was quick to point out.
“They had the spirit and deter
mination and it brought them
victory. Fm proud of them.”
Played 60 Minutes
In the opinion of Coach Kil
linger, Otto Graham played his
best game of the year, including
that with the Naval Academy. The
foimer All-American from North
western was the only player on
either team to play the full 60
minutes.
Graham passed for 3 touch
downs, scored one himself, and
set up the fifth. In 16 attempts he
completed 12 passes, good for 168
yards, and in 10 running attempts
he picked up 55 yards. On another
occasion he cut down the side
lines, then back to midfield, elud
ing 6 tacklers, and dashed 95
yards for an apparent score. A
clipping penalty nullified it. Gra
ham’s performance made him an
outstanding candidate for All-
American Service Team honors.
With the aid of various chemi
cals, laundry aboard ship now can
be washed in sea water.

Lieut. Raymond (Ducky) Pond,

last Saturday.
Said the Old Professor; “Mr.
Killinger, what would you do if
I gave you a drum?”
Lieut.Comdr. Killinger: “Beat
it. Professor, but you can’t beat
our boys. They are unbeatable
in their own class. And that
Otto Graham! If there are any
better all-around football play
ers in the nation I haven’t seen
them.”
Lieut. Pond: “Whew, that
Graham! We lost to a great
