Ha said a fir haiard has been caused by one truck driver whoa gasoline overflow th truck tank. least as long a he wa on a good pair of leg. Thla two-platoon All-America Idea will correct some of the shortcom ings of the past, too. We no longer will have four pauer In th back field, for example. Before the modern T wa popu larized, and practically every aide wa deploying from the single wing, a blocking back rarely made an All-America, and he wa a must In that plan. Th modern T with msn-ln-mo-tlon lends luelf to an abundance of blocking backs. Speaking of the two-platoon ar rangement. It 1 significant that two power do not go In for It Notre Dame and th Chicago Bears, nei ther of which ever suffered from the lark of a multiple of choice talent. Oeonte Connor atresse the fact that the comparatively few full time player ar still having the mint fun. "They plsy me fullback on the defense at times." say the former Notre Darner playing left tackle for th Beara. "This mean I bark up the middle in a five-man line. "The moat fun though 1 cover ing the flanker to th ouuide when he goes In motion. Thau when you get a chance for hard, clean Uckle In the open. How many times does that happen while you are lugging It out In the middle? There you're lucky to grab a leg or arm, or Juat knock the pins out from under the ball-carrier. "Against the Eagles at Wrlgley Field, Johnny Lujack called Uckle pass, which I took for an 11-yard gain." After going at It full blast both ways for nine campaign, life would be a bit monotonous for George Connor In the two-platoon variation. No doubt many other feel the same war. The coaches may (till hav selling Job on their hands. BARGAIN? The Cleveland Indians gave Portland of the Pacific Coast league $30,000 and five players for Hal Saltz man, 24.
