Notre Dame Coach Still Like T Grid Formation . Frank Leahy Isn't Soured on Tricky Play Despite Losses in Tough Games By BERT COLLIER MIAMI BEACH, Fla., Jan. 22 OP) All the recent lickings suf fered by teams using the "T" formation haven't soured Frank Leahy, the Notre Dame football coach, on the tricky, fast-moving style of play. Fans still were talking about the amazing - upset scored by Washington over the Chicago Bears, past masters of the "T", when teams using the touted of fense went down to defeat in both the Orange and Rose Bowls. But viewing the scene today from his Miami Beach cottage, where he is recuperating from Junior Pelicans, DeMoIays Win Victory Tilts . In Victory league basketball play last . night on the high school floor, the Junior Pelicans dropped the Academy five with a resounding smack by a score of 44-19. and the DeMoIays beat out the LDS hoopmen by 28-19. High point man for the Junior Pelicans was Dick Pope who scored five field goals and one free throw for eleven points. The Academy- team had three high point men, Smith, Mahoney and Derrah all scored five. Blohm was high point man for the DeMoIays with ten count ers, and Keith Smith cornered honors for the LDS men by total ing seven. . - Summaries: Jun.

Swope park public courses re port a surplus of $884.31 in the first eight months of the fiscal year compared with a loss of $713.86 for the same period last year. . ' IF heavy hitter of the Brooklyn an Illness, Leahy refused to be come discouraged about the system now used at Notre Dame. "Like anything else, it will work if you have the proper ma terial for it," he said. "In this case, the material is fast break ing backs and good blocking." "We installed the T" at Notre Dame because our material seemed ideal for it," he ex plained. "Angelo Bertilll, the backbone of the squad, was an expert ball carrier, and could pass, yet he wasn't a fast run ner. But we had fast backs to carry the ball Dippy Evans, Jerry Cowhig and Creighton Miller. Material like that prac tically dictated the TV It was hard, changing over, but we were satisfied." Leahy doesn't think Alabama's 37-21 defeat of Boston college in the Orange Bowl repudiated the T', which was Boston's ace gun. It worked for the Eagles to throw Alabama behind 14 points in the first few minutes. Ala bama simply had a better pass ing game and capitalized on it. And in the Georgia-UCLA game at Pasadena UCLA had the T', but Georgia had Sink wich.
