It could be the odds-men are riding along with the record, which shows that the Sailors have won four of the last five clashes with the Cadets and that they have a superior record this season of six wins, one loss, and one tie to Army's five wins and three losses. Then, too, Navy has a recog nized star quarterback in George Welsh. And an All-America end in Ron Beagle. But Army Coach Earl Blaik insists he has a better defense than Navy, and is high on quarterback Don Hol leder, the converted All-America end. Army leads in the long, color ful series with 28 wins to Navy's 23, with four ties. This year's game will be nationally tele vised.
