12, 1944 THE MICHIGAN DAILY nspired Army Team wam s Notre Broncos Open Court Season November 26 No Returning Letter Man on Read's Squad KALAMAZOO, NOV. 11-()- Western Michigan College, twice winner over Michigan in basketball last season and victor as well over Northwestern, Notre Dame and City College of New York, has forgotten about football and eagerly awaits the opening of the new court season. Coach Herbert W. (Buck) Read's Broncos open their schedule at home Saturday night, Nov. 25, against: Chuck Chuckovits and his Kellogg Field Flyers. Before the holidays, Western also will play Michigan twice and will meet Brooklyn College Dec. 9 in Madison Square Garden. Read, whose fast-break teams have been among the best in the midwest for years, will retain his two-team plan which was successful last seas- on-two fives which alternate to maintain the speed tempo which the veteran Bronco coach demands. Western Michigan College hasn't a single returning veteran from last year but those who have watched early drills say Read will come up with another good squad. On one combination, which aver- ages over 6-feet-1, Read is using John Stevens of Redford and Bill Perrin of Kalamazoo State high at the forwards, Walt Lamisk, six-foot- three center from Yonkers, N. Y., and Ralph Welton of Milwaukee and Har- old Retan of Lansing at the guards. Retan was a frosh squad player here two years ago. 'Fighting Irish' Suffer Michigan State E Their Wors Tackle Blanchard PL Backfield; Army Ren By HAROLD CLAASSEN NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-(AP)-Army kept from the victory column fo 13 years by Notre Dame, unleashed all its pent-up fury today and played patty-cake on the Irish goal line while rambling to a 59 to 0 triumph -worst defeat ever suffered by No- tre Dame. Seldom, if ever, has any team pro- duced points with the fury of the ca- dets. Notre Dame, apparently set to stop the slam-bang thrusts of Felix (Doc) Blanchard, 205 pound fullback, was almost driven out of Yankee Sta- dium by the speed of Glenn Davis Max Minor, Doug Kenna, Dale Hal and a horde of other backs. Blanchard, employed primarily as a decoy in the Army attack, played a sensational game, bursting half the eardrums of the 74,437 spectators in the third period with a block tha made possible Minor's 61-yard scor- ing return of a punt. In the second canto he churned his. way inside the Notre Dame 20- yard line with such devastating forc that head linesman Dave Reese suf- fered a dislocated left elbow and was unable to continue. Blanchard, squirming for that ex- tra yard, drove ahead, flattening half the Notre Dame team. Reese, un- able to get out of the way in time was knocked down and the entire left side of the Irish line as well as Blan- chard and his interferers fell on him i CHRISTMAS IS COMING!
