Voyles. an arch fundamentalist who former), coached linemen at Duke, has been aiming at nothing short of line perfection since ho came here as head coach four years ago, and tributes of opposing coaches and scouts this year are evidence that he has arrived somewhere in tho neighborhood of that goal. . Playing a tough schedule for a small college which has only about 500 men eligible for var sity football, W. and M. has whipped Navy and Dartmouth and tied Harvard.. So airtight has been the Indian line play that opponents have averaged 53.3 yards rushing in six gomes.
