AS I SEE IT
I really feel sorry for the Army
and Nacy academies, they are
both going to have to start from
"scratch" this year. Hardly any
f their first teammen are back.
Biff Jones of West Point &ays that
none of his "first four" backs are
back. He's only got AU-Ameri-can
Felix Blanchard and Glenn
Davis back for two more years.
I imagine Ad Lewandowski would
like to start from a few of those
"SCRATCHES."
A second Army Air Force, area
2, boxing tournament will be held
at the Sioux City Air Field on
March 29 and 30. All Air Base
in Iowa and Nebraska comprise
area 2.
Teams already entered includes
our Lincoln Air Base team and
on that team is Cpl. Billy Zuke,
who almost slugged his way to
the Golden Glove heavy weight
championship in Chicago. If the
rest of the team can match Zuke,
we ought to have another Cham
pion team at the base.

Lincoln. If it comes through it
will be swell for the proposed
baseball team. IF IF IF?
