IT BRIGHT FOR WEST POINT Mentor Is Cheerful Despite Job of Filling Two Places Left by Stars Last Year Counts On Big Team By Eddie Brletz (Associated Press Sports Writer) WEST POINT, N. Y., Sept. 22 (AP) Give Lieut. Gar Davidson a really good quarterback and a bet ter than fair center and he'll show you a West Point football team that will go places this season. Replacing John Clifford In the mid- die of the line and Bill Or oh a at the key position In tho backfleld looms as the two major problems as the gray-thatched Davidson Bends an A squad of 38 big footballera through their paces here these brisk fall days. MI feci very good about prospects, said Coach Dsvldson. "Players like Clifford and Grohs can't be plucked off treea and I hardly expect to un cover two men as good as they were, Still, I feel we have the makings of a vory fair team. More Reserves "For one thing, we're bigger. For another thing, we have more reserves This latter factor may make our ball team. They'll be green at the start but they'll see enough action to know what It's all about by the time we start down the home stretch." Graduations cost the army no less than seven members of last year's starting lineup, but that doesn't wor ry Davidson much. The men he Is counting on this year center and quarterback excepted are Just as good, he thinks, as his 1935 regu lars. He has eight letter men available for line duty and three In the back field. Not all of them were starters Inst season but all saw plenty of ac tion under fire. It looks like a first team composed entirely of third and fourth year men. To Alternate Endi Davidson plans to alternate Mau rice Preston and BUI Hipps at left end, with Bill Strombcrg at the other flank. John Erlksen and Jim Isbeit will get the call at tackle. Clifford's successor at center Is undecided, but right now Ed Howell haa the Inside trnck. Nils Oilman, Gordon Klmbrell and Snm Smith will fight It out for the two guard positions. , "Monk" Meyer la the only 1035 .starter available for backfleld duty.

Apparently unawed by Chlck'i great reputatlbn, Belcastro took the offense through most of th battle, glvlne ground only when the cow-puncher attempted to hoist him for th hell. copter hold. He kept out of that grip by grabbing the rope with hands and feet If he found It Impossible to rou aown Chick's back. At the same time th Lethal Latin attempted a few of hi own apeclaltle. Including the flying drop-kuck, but had no bet ter luck than Chick did with his spin. Late In the match Referee Ray Friable attempted to break one of Bel caatro' hold at th -opes.

Both grappler. finally fell out of the arena, and continued to pummel each other lustily amone the spectator for a exciting a few minutes as seen here in months.

Prince Slllkl Mlhalakl attempted to down Les Wolfe In the middle event grudge battle without resorting to dirt, but Wolfe went whole-hog on the meanle aide and took two out of three fall for the decision. Appar ently deciding that a long as Med- rord fans no longer looked on him a a fair haired boy, Wolfe kicked, slug ged, pulled hair and irawled for the hemp In true bully tradition. There waa no fall In the first round a Wolfe continually scamp ered outside the ropes. In the second he took the tumble with a figure-4 scissors and a strangle hold In the third round Mlhalakts emerged from the coma that seemed to engulf him during the early periods, seized his tormenter by the ried, and flopped him about the ring with a half dozen flying marea before slapping on a dragon scissors for the fall. In the fourth round Wolfe again grabbed the hook scissor from be hind, and when the Arab stood ,up In an attempt to break the grip de livered a resounding rabbit punch to end the scuffling.

All of us, these past years, have had to make our old shoes and hats and dresses and suits do double duty we've worn them months longer than usual simply to save money. Now that things are brighter, it's a good idea to take stock and stock up. While fall's still young, invest, if you feel able, in a new suit, a new hat, a new rug for the living-room, perhaps a new refrigerator, or a vacuum cleaner! Prices are likely to be lower than you expect and after all, don't you deserve a change of scenery, personal and household? One word watch the advertising in this paper care fully before you buy.
