Only five of the 45 members
of the University of Miami's
1940 football squad are seniors.
By BEN FRENCH
(AP Nowafaaturaa)
Selinsgrove, Pa. Coaching
the Siuquehana University foot
ball team is strictly a Stags
family affair.
Amos Alonzo Stagg, 87, who
is In his 80th season as a col
lege grid coach, joined with his
son, Amos, Jr., two years ago
to form what Is believed to be
the only father-son comoination
in coaching ranks.
But there's a third member of
this team Mrs. A. A. Stagg,
Sr. The wife and mother of the
two coaches takes an active
hand in the running of the grid
team at this small Lutheran 1-
lege in the hills of central Penn
sylvania. In fact, the men ' oth
feel she's essential.
"Mother points out the mis
takes and charts all the plays
both our's and the opponent s."
Amos, Jr., says. "I'd say at least
a fourth of dad's greatne&i is
due to her."
The elder Staggs met when he
was the head coach at the Uni
versity of Chicago and she was
a coed. One night the coach
gave a talk on football at the
girls' dormitory. An 18-year old
senior came up to ask a question
after the talk and a romance
started.
A year later they were mar
ried and for 35 years they've
been working out football plays.
"But be sure to point out that
I courted her," the Grand Old
Man of football says with a
chuckle.
Mrs. Stagg turns out a com
plete set of charts and full re
port on each game the team
plays. At one time she went off
and scouted opponents when her
husband was knocking off west
coast grid giants with his Col
lege of the Pacific eleven. An
other time she made charts for
the Chicago Tribune.
"Her charts and reports are
just as good as movies," Stagg
boasts.
While her son and husband are
down on the field, she sits in
the press box diagramming
plays, noting mistakes and mak
ing suggestions which are sent
to the locker room during half
time. In fact, the couple get so in
volved in football that they're
liable to forget everything else
ven wedding anniversaries.
'It was 10:30 one night last
month when Mrs. Stagg turned
to me and said "Lon, this is our
55th wedding anniversary,"
Stagg said.
Both Stagg, at 87 and his wife.
at 74, enjoy good health. They
spend the non-football months
at their home at Stockton, Calif.
working out new plays to spring
on the opposition in the fall.
Only Amos Alonzo, Jr., has a
full-time job of coaching. He's
head mentor of football, basket
ball and tennis at Susquehanna
as well as doubling as athletic
director. His father is listed only
as advisory coach on an hono
rarium.
"But I take a backseat when
Dad and Mother come east," he
says.
Passes to New Marks
Syracuse, N.Y., W) Although
he is only a Junior on the Syra
cuse university football team,
every time Bernie Custis com
pletes a forward, he establishes
a new Orange record.
Stewart (Stu) Tisdale, Yale's
passing quarterback, was co-
captain of the freshman football
team in 1047.

who is captain of the Arkansas
football team this season, has
charged out of the obscurity of
a blocking back post into the
limelight
Duke for three seasons was
Arkansas' blocking back and de
fensive stalwart but the switch
to the T from the single wing
put blocking backs out of busi
ness. Hard-running, 180-pound
Duke quickly caught on as a
halfback.

This One's Changing a Lot of Minds
MOST people have a habit of letting their
sights on cars of a certain "price level"
and making a choice on the basis of what
they can afford to buy.
Then, on the scene, came this stunning beauty
and in a few short weeks turned a whale of
a lot of decisions in a brand-new direction.
Why not folks figured get really fresh
style lines and that stout bumper-guard grille
that can take any normal impact yet won't
"lock horns" with cart ahead?
Why not get good, substantial roadweight and
lot more interior room when they come in a
car that's shorter in bumper-to-bumper length
for easier parking, garaging and handling in
traffic?
And why, the shrewd shoppers asked, take
anything less than this itraight-eight thriller
when it wears a price tag that any new-car
buyer can reach, and actually costi less than
many sixtsT
Truth Is, this spanking-new Buick SPECIAL
turns a searching light on every car in its price
range on many above and below too and
look the better for it every day.
Better in its advanced styling and amazing
interior roominess and traffic-handy size.
And certainly far better in the lift and life of
its valve-in-head Fireball power the level
going steadiness of its buoyant Buick ride
the silken luxury of Dynaflow Drive, optional
here at modest extra cost
So why not set your sights on this beauty of a
buy and let the facts of hardpan shopping
comparison open your eyes to a new oppor
tunity? Your Buick dealer will gladly let you sample
it sparkling action on the road and give you
