After a few days Lam bert asked to have it changed because the sounds of subway trains four blocks away inter fered with his sleep . . . Last week Manhattan went to Wash ington to play Georgetown, and after a night in a hotel Lambert turned up pale and weary ... "I didn't close my eyes all night, coach," he explained.

I'ltUbunh (It), GRIimOMJES Coach Myers Finds Out About His Squad; Draft And Missed Interception Tells Story By DENNY MYERS Head Coach of Boston College I had a boy last fall who had such bad eyes not even the army wanted him. I didn't know this until after tho season was finished. He was a lineman and In tho Tennessee game I had devised a defense for a pass that tho Vols threw a great deal, It was a little short affair right over tho lino. I had backed this boy up in practice to Intercept that pass. Ho did very well In rehearsal, J intercepting every time we tried to throw It. I beenmo so satisfied with this particular piece of strategy, I decided to give hlin some blocking so that we could run tho ball back for a touch down on the Interception. Came the ball game and we waited 'hungrily. Finally, Ten nessee threw tho ball and hit my boy right In the face with it. Since that time the draft has revealed a number of peculiar things about my football team. Two of our boys thought the Maroon nnd Gold of Boston col lege was tho same as tho Orange of Tennessee. They were as color-blind as they could be. They also thought that our Jer seys and our gold colored pants and the football were nil the same color and wondered why wo didn't use somo deceptive plays with the hidden ball, Yes, sir any more of this and I'll start crying.
