State university football team
that the "Mad Russian of Wash
ington State" is really mad may
be put to rest.
The Russian Nick Susoeff,
Washington State, college end,
dubbed "mad" for his driving
gridiron tactics gave the Mon
tana boys a shining example of
seeming "nuttinesa" late In the
first half of their game last Sat
urday, which WSC won to the
tune of 8818. -
It happened this way:
Nick, galloping along In the
clear, reached up one of his bear
like hands and pulled in a pass
and then jumping and shouting
trotted across the goal line as if
he had put across the winning
score in the Rose BowL instead
of just boosting a lop-sided mar
gin still further in basketball fig
ures. -
Nobody was near enough to
hear what was said, but the head
shakes and sorrowful looks of the
Montanans plainly said, "The poor
guy really is nuts. after alL .
But that wasn't it Nick knew
his touchdown didn't mean any
thing to the game but it did to
Nick. In three years (counting
this one) on the WSC squad, and
two of them catching passes from
the dead-eyed Billy SewelL Nick
had never scored a touchdown.
He was often a bridesmaid but
never quite a bride. Got the ball
right up to the line, but it always
turned out tov fall in someone
else's arms across the goal.
So, when afterward in the dres

The factor that arouses the
Irish hopes Is Angelo Bertelli's
return to the passing
again. The accurate Italian, who
had a major hand in Notre
Dame's undefeated seasen last
year, didnt find himself this
season, la a revamped aetnp
that had him calling signals
from the quarterback's berth In
the T formation, until he was
- relieved of these responsibilities
for the Stanford game.
Then the junior range-finder
regained his old talent With
Harry Wright recalled from the
line to shout the signals, Bertelli
pitched 20 times, connected on 14,
and included a string of nine
straight as 233 yards were gained
via the aerial route.
It was a performance that must
have brought 5 smiles to Head
bach . Frank Leahy, undergoing
treatments at the Mayo clinic, in
Rochester, Minn, and perhaps it
was a display Inspired by the illness-enforced
absence of the man
