iiiiiiiiiiii The Irish E7

B\ Terry O’Neil, sport* editor

The Heisman It’s a bit early to tell exactly who most deserves the 1968 . Thus, football writers, coaches and publicity directors currently are forming their battle stragegy. Depending on your source, there are anywhere from one to eight gladiators in that battle. Alphabetically, they are: Bill Bradley of Texas Brian Dowling of Yale Chris Gilbert of Texas of you know where of Miami Leroy Keyes of Purdue of Penn State O.J. Simpson of Southern Cal. Actually, Hanratty, Keyes and Simpson are the only serious contenders. That, anyway, is your assumption until you read Bob T here are a number of reasons the Irish want badly to beat Purdue today. On the Pille of the Chicago Sun-Times, who says, “Hardly anybody except Boilermakers’ first scrimmage play of the game, for instance, Leroy Keyes hit Irish Terry Hanratty’s relatives and an occasional errant publicity man defensive end Kevin Hardy with a vicious, illegal, crackback block. Hardy’s ankle, already sees another prime contender (besides Keyes and Simpson).” weak from a previous injury, never did heal properly the rest of the season. Later in the Although Terry disclaims any relation to him, Beano Cook of game, Purdue defensive end Joe Walsh(84) face-masked Irish offensive tackle Bob Football News predicts in a recent column that Hanratty will win Kuechenbere (75). No oenaltv was called. the big bronze figure, presented each year by the Downtown Athletic Club of New York. Which is enough to give you second thoughts about Brian Dowling and Chris Gilbert. It’s kind of like the presidential race, except that the candidates don’t make their own speeches. They depend on outsiders for aid in that department, outsiders who, with one exception, are all proponents of the “hard sell.” The loner of the group is ND sports publicist Roger Valdiserri. “You simply don’t shove a Heisman Trophy winner down anybody’s throat,” says Roger. “Right now, Keyes and Simpson are the favorites for the award. Terry (Hanratty) is a contender, because he placed high in the voting the past two years. “But the people who vote for the Heisman Trophy are intelligent. They’ll vote for a player because of what he does on the field, not because of any publicity 1 give him or because we have him on the cover of our pre-season football guide,” Valdiserri explains. Indeed, Hanratty is not to be found on the cover of ND’s ’68 guide. On the inside pages, he rates a little more ink than most Irish players, but nothing extraordinary. Contrast that with the USC grid handbook. O.J. scampers off the front cover at you, and in color, no less. On the back cover, he runs a power sweep in black and white while, just above his head, a color IN A CRISIS, it takes courage to T H E Y KNOW that it takes cour­ banner reads, “All the way with O.J.” be a leader . . . courage to speak out age to stand up for America against The inside front cover includes four pictures of O.J. and 10 lay-it-on- thick quotes from coaches and writers.

Make AP A Believer In preparing for Purdue, we go through the same routine that we do for any other team. But you cannot help to feel uneasiness on the field. The defense is working hard to come up with a way to stop the Boilermakers’ potent offense, which is spearheaded by Leroy Keyes and Mike Phipps. Notre Dame’s offense, showing a very impressive attack against Oklahoma, realizes the goals will be harder to come by against the big and fast Purdue defense. Everyone in the country knows the importance of a victory over Purdue. Leroy Keyes said this week that he would have no trouble stopping Jim Seymour and, with our young defense, he believes they can outscorc our offense. I don’t think these things can be predicted, unless Leroy knows something that no one else in the country knows. All in all, the Irish are going to have a few surprises for Mr. Keyes and his teammates. The Notre Dame football team and, I am sure, the student body will join me today in welcoming back our co-captain Bob Olson. The defense did an excellent job against the Sooners, but it’s great to know that we have the best linebacker in the country returning from an injury to call defensive signals. The Notre Dame team will never forget the defeat that Purdue handed to us last year. The locker room after the game is one thing Safe Driving Essay Competition that we do not want to experience again. That loss was the first that the Class o f ’69 had suffered at Notre Dame. Everyone just sat in front of his locker, trying to tell himself for we had lost. It was true. We did lose and we had to start all over again. This year, Oklahoma was our start and we would like to continue College Students from there. Sponsored By The amazing part about playing for Notre Dame is that every year you find yourself playing for the National Championship. Some years you find yourself trying to defend the No. 1 rating and other au ro /S P O R T years regaining it. In 1966, we regained the title; in 1967 we did not defend it successfully. 52148 U. S. 31 North And now in 1968, after one victory, UPI places us No. I ahead of South Bend, Purdue and AP places us No. 2 behind Purdue. Today, wc will try to make AP a believer.
