New- York, Oct 8 -01.Kh- Coaching is a part time job and he doesn't get time to point his team for a big football game, yet it has clicked off, 143 points against three respectable op ponents and its goal line still is inviolate. The big lob, he says, is win ning the war but because win ning football games comes hand ily as a sideline, . the United Press names as its coach of the week: - - . Eddie Cameron . of these brulsin' crushin' Duke Blue Devils. This week, Cameron and the south's number one powerhouse play Navys unbeaten eleven in a night game before the "lunch bucket and slacks set" at Balti more, in what will be its stiff est test to date. If the Blue Devils, get past the Midshipmen, they will rate recognition as one of the nation's Jod two or three teams, but busy Eddie and his Naval V-12 train ees are spending only their a! loted hour a day in practice for the game. Have Few Plays , . "We've got no time for pep .talks or drilling against any upeclflc style of play," .he said. "'We'll Just concentrate on a few basic plays so if the boys miss Jwo days practice a week as they often do,- they won't be out of etep." i Cameron took over the Blue Devils when Lt. Col. Wallace jWade was granted military leave )n 1942. His job as acting ath letics director and football coach lit for the duration, but he has handled the team so well he is 'Blmo.it certain to get a top flight job with some other college.

YICK SO CHINESE HERB CO. Jackson Co. Bank BlrJg. "TO his plays were seemingly im possible. Gordon performed so magnif icently that Manager ' Billy Southworth' of the Cards said after the game, ."without Gor don, we would have made at least four more base hits. That guy was like a net out there. while the Californian was doing his heroics. Stocky Max Lanier was writing one of the most tragic chapters in world series history. Lanier, who was credited with one victory in two brief appearances in last year's series, was honored by Southworth of the Cards by being named starting pitcher in the-opening game of this series Instead of Big Mort Cooper, the right-handed ace. Soutnpaw Lanier did a grand mound job, limiting the Yanks to seven scattered hits during tha seven innings he pitched. He struck out seven batsmen, and singled to drive In one of the two Cardinal runs. ... But Lanier unfortunately was selected by the baseball fates as the agent that would bobble away the game let the Yanks back into victory. - In the fourth inning, Lanier s dropping of the ball at first on Lou Klein's throw, enabled Frankie Crosettl to get on base. Later Charlie Keller hit into a with the run that tied the count 1-1. Then Gordon knocked a homer into the lower left field stands. : Had Lanier not made the error on CrOsettt at first base, there would hvae been no scoring in this inning instead of two unearned Yankee runs. In the Yankee half of the sixth inning, with "Crosettl on second and Billy Johnson on first, and one out, Lanier made wild pitch to Gordon at the plate.-- Catcher Walker Cooper couldn't find the ball, and Cor setti scored from second. Gor don struck out;-and Catcher Bill Dickey singled to score Johnson with the Yanks' fourth tally. .

London, Oct 6 U.R) British press report said today that Field Marshal Jan Christian Smuts, premier of the Union of South Africa, was planning to confer with Prime Minister Win ston Churchill on the future sta tus of Italian colonies in Africa, i Dallas, Tex., Oct, 8 U.F5 Texas Christian's Horney Frogs, familiar la the football realm for such great passing stars as Sling- in Sammy Baugh and Little Davey O'Brien, have' sounded warning that another player may carry on in their best man ner. ' He is- on,ly a freshman 160 pound Jim Lucas and he is known on the campus as the "Pecos Kid" from deep in the western reaches of the Texas range country. He has had only one airing as a collegiate player, but it was enough to give him some early consideration as the southwest area's back of the year. Against a well regarded Arkansas team he averaged slightly better, than live yards per trip In 23 running plays through a good Arkansas line. Counting the yardage in re turning Intercepted passes, his total was better than 200 yards. SAVOLD IS UPSET B Y EDDIE I Arkon, O.. Oct 6 (U.PJ Eddie Blunt veteran Brooklyn. N.

' LITTLE'S FORMER CADDIE NOW BIG NOISE FOR TEAM Lovely Deanna In Sunday Hit New York, Oct. 8 U.R) Coach Lou Little at Columbia hasn't got any "seven blocks of granite" to stir the Metropolitan football fans this year, but he nas got a rock. Keystone player at left end In an otherwise weakling line is Tom Bock, the kid who used to caddy for him up in his home town of Leoi ainster. Mass.. and who told hint one day about 10 years ago: . Mr. .Little I'm coming down to Columbia some day to take a pTe-medlcal " course and nlav football for you." The youngster proved himself an able prophet and though this year's Columbia eleven isn't go ing to terrorize many opponents, a lot of players are coins to shake themselves to see if they still have all their teeth after they hit Rock. . Now a senior, and one of the few players on the eleven with varsity experience. Rock is the gibraltar of strength and the man upon whom the backs de pend when they need to advance tew yards on ground Dlavs. In Columbia's ODenine defeat. 26 to 7 at the hands of Prince ton, Rock was practically the whole "strong side" of the Columbia line and Princeton backs simply elected to eo arouna me oiner way with their running plays, which left him with little to do exceDt take out his man, which he did almost invariably.. Sam Cordovano. the Lion line coach calls him one of the neat-'i est blockers he has develoDed and also reminds folks that he caught four touchdown- passes and 24 altogether for a total of 310 yards last year. As Jong as . that boy Is In there we don't need to worry about right end on offense or left end on defense," said Cordovano. Rock may get a better chance to show his talents this week against- Yale,-, which probably won't prove as bothersome as Princeton. EOF. Syracuse, N.
