Meanwhile, in the Monschau sector, 20 miles below Duren, other First Army units were disclosed to be advancing along both banks of the Roer where it curves westward. These troops gained more than a mile in their push to the east.

  • The Hidden Career of Ken Strong
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 10, No. 3 (1988) THE HIDDEN CAREER OF KEN STRONG by Bob Gill The more we find out about minor league football in the 1930s and '40s, the more top-level players we discover who put in time with pro teams outside the NFL. Among others, the list includes stars like Frankie Albert, Ed Danowski, Jack Ferrante, Augie Lio, Harry Newman, Hank Soar, Tommy Thompson and Kenny Washington, plus Hall of Famers Red Badgro, Johnny Blood, Sid Gillman, Vince Lombardi and Ace Parker. But without a doubt, among the famous names of football, the one with the most extensive non-NFL career was Ken Strong. The initial phase of Strong's pro career lasted from 1929-35. In four years ('29-32) with the Staten Island Stapletons and three ('33-35) with the New York Giants, he was a consensus all-pro selection in 1930-31 and '33-34, finishing among the NFL's top four scorers in each of those seasons. Then, after an injury- plagued 1935 season and a contract dispute with the Giants, he jumped in 1936 to the New York Yankees of the newly formed AFL. Though it didn't last, the AFL was definitely a major league in '36. The Yankees contended for the title before ultimately finishing third. With no passer, the team relied almost exclusively on its ground game, led by Strong's powerful running and crunching blocks. In addition, Strong finished third in the league in scoring – in fact, he would have led the league easily if not for the fact that he made only 5 of 20 field-goal attempts.

  • The Staten Island Stapletons
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 7, No. 6 (1985) THE STATEN ISLAND STAPLETONS By John Hogrogian Special thanks to N.F.L. Properties, Inc. for permission to publish this article. Trollies rolled down Broadway and Calvin Coolidge was president when the NFL came to New York City in 1925. In the years since Tim Mara founded the Giants, NFL teams have made their home in each of the City's five boroughs. The Giants played in the Polo Grounds in upper Manhattan through 1955, then moved to Yankee Stadium in the Bronx through 1973. The Brooklyn Dodgers football team thrived in Ebbets Field during the 1930s and 1940s. The Jets made their home in Shea Stadium in Queens from 1964 until recently. And, in the sleepiest of the boroughs, the Staten Island Stapletons played NFL ball from 1929 through 1932. The Stapes struggled through life on a shoestring, but helped keep the NFL afloat as it fought for life in the Depression. The Stapes started out in 1915, five years before the NFL was born in the midwest. Dan Blaine, a good halfback and a native of the working-class neighborhood known as Stapleton, along with three other players formed the team to play other semi-pro squads from New York and New Jersey. The Stapes played more for fun than money. Just as well: crowds were small; salaries averaged $10 per game. Nevertheless, they managed to do well, winning several local semi-pro titles before World War I. After military service, Blaine took over sole ownership in 1919. Blaine himself prospered in the 1920s.

  • All-Pros of 1931
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 5, No. 3 (1983) ALL-PROS OF 1931 By John Hogrogian As one would expect of three time champions, the Green Bay Packers flooded the 1931 honor rolls. Eleven Packers were mentioned on at least one published All-Pro team. The habitual Green Bay championship was not without challenge, as the Portsmouth Spartans rocketed out of obscurity to finish only one game off the pace. In their NFL debut in 1930, the Spartans lost more often than they won. With no nonsense coach Potsy Clark recruited from the college ranks, the Spartans assembled a fine collection of new players, some of them rookies and some of them from other pro teams. Seven Portsmouth players won berths on someone's All-Pro team, a fitting compliment to the club's fine finish in the standings. The annual poll of writers, team managers, and game officials placed four Packers and two Spartans on the first team.
