Poce Nine

Middies

sail

for

Blue

By RAY O'HARA
Michigan football fanatics will
be treated to a third consecu-
tive gridiron duel in their friend-
ly local stadium this Saturday
as the Maize and Blue attempt
to write another chapter in theI
continuing saga of Bo's Re-
venge.
The bad guys in this episode
will be one of the nation's most
consistently under-rated football
teams, the Midshipmen of the
Naval Academy. Navy's un-
deserved reputation as a push-
over is now as obsolete as Penn
State's ranking in the top ten,
but head coach George Welsh
is not caught up in the euphoria
which pervades the rest of the
Annapolis community.
"Everyone around here is
pretty excited, but for all I
know we could fall flat and
drop the next nine games."
Come on Coach, Army is still
on the schedule.
"Actually," he conceded, "I
feel we have a very good chance
to have a winning record for
the first time in seven years."
Fresh from the sinking of the
Nittany Lions, Welsh's guarded
optimism seems better than
justified and as for the game
with Michigan, "We're just go-I
ing to play our game," he
volunteered, "and not worry
about doing anything special."
If Navy does play their game

pect an afternoon of rugged go-
