The message in this Case Hap pens to be the Field goal an obscure scoring weapon among the Crew cuts since the Days of the old Dropkick bul the play for pay boys Ace in the Hole on attack right along. Along the pro circuit you la often hear a coach Tell his quarterback Settle for three if you can t there was a lot of settling along the collegiate Trail the past weekend too a United press International Survey disclosed. The Survey showed 12 school that went for three 15 limes. One of them Purdue established a big ten record by making two Fiel goals in a 31-8 Romp Over Illinois while Georgia tech permitted Tommy Wells five shots at the crossbars before he finally hit forthe margin of Victory in a 10-8 decision Over goals also marked the mar Gin for Syracuse Wisconsin Kan Sas and Davidson.

It looks As though the Field goals Back to stay. Gloomy predictions and for his Cau Tion in praising players until the season had ended. However to the writers he predicted that the Irish will give their opponents a lot of trouble the rest of this year. I believe the Loam is anxious Mohave Izo direct the Leahy said. He is a Fine Leader and when the other players like the Quarter Back they Block harder and play harder for him and become a much bolter team. Izo is As a Good a passer As i have Ever seen and that includes any players you have had in professional football As Well As in col lege. 1 would compare him to an other Fine notre Dame Quarter Back Angelo Bertelli Only this lad is much asked Why notre Dame had to used Izo As a starter in Early games this season Leahy said he did know but to believed he had heard something about an injured ankle. Still he could stand on one log we have As varied an attacks any team in this league to told the reporters. In some Way sit s even More varied because ours includes an unbalanced line run from the t and not Many clubs have this. You called it imaginative whence beat the eagles and packers and unimaginative when we lose Joe said. We used about the same plays in All our games. We be Luu wide stuff inside runs pitch outs Short passes Long passes the Sam running plays and pass patterns As every other team used according to what the defense is and what our scouts have told us is an opponent s weaknesses. There is very Little that is Newin pro football it is the difference in execution that spells the Dif Ference. Reasons obvious the reasons Why we Haven t clicked Are obvious Kuhari hadded. We be been Hurt by in juries to key offensive personnel and we have inexperienced men in our defensive secondary but that does t mean we Haven t got a team of kids who Are capable of playing some Fine Kuharich went out on a limb to predict that we could win the next six games then climbed right Backoo predict we could lose All six what i m getting at is that a lot of Little things decide football games and make the outcome completely unpredictable Kuharic declared. You can run the same play against the same defense 10straight times and i la bet you come up Wilh differ Cal yardage results every time. A few bad plays a Iukie defensive Back will play his position perfectly on four plays and goof up on the fifth for six Points against you. I could go Back Over every one of Oxire games and cite you two or three plays at the most in each game that meant the difference betwee winning and Kuharich held his temper Incheck despite the Sharp question ing. As he has since the Day restarted coaching he refused to blame individual players. When re porters cited certain names Kuharich Rose to their defense. You Guys expected too much from this team Joe told the news men. You were All predicting title but i was t because i knew we had serious injury problem Sand too Many inexperienced defensive backs. We got Hofmo a bad Start last season too but when we started to jell there was t Betler defensive unil in football and i m not giving up on and throw passes anywhere on Thefield he added. His aim is perfect anywhere up to 60 although he had t seen Notredame play this season until last saturday Leahy also put in a plug for halfback red Mack As a boy who is going to be terrific an for Navy tackle Bob Reifsnyder. Reil Snyder on one leg is Belt Erthan most tackles in perfect health lie said. On i key tackle the former coach went on to recall the 1952 notre Dame okla homa game As the greatest game of his coaching was a game decided by one tackle he explained. We had Afine Young player named Danny Shannon who was Captain of our defensive platoon. With the score tied in the fourth Quarter a kicked off to Oklahoma. Shannon went Down under the kick and Oklahoma Back on about the 13-Yard line and made him was the kind of tackle you could hear All Over the country an both boys were rendered unconscious. They finally came out witha Stretcher and carried Shannon off. Danny s Mother who came fro Ireland was in the stands. And Here s How that Fine Irish woman reacted to the situation. As they carried him off the Field she Saida prayer and ended please Don t let my boy Danny slay unconscious too Long. Well be needing him in there As soon As Oklahoma get the Ball " .
