OP) All the recent lickings suf

Leahy, the Notre Dame football
coach, on the tricky, fast-moving
style of play.

the amazing - upset scored by

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
