Notes

Purdue fielded a team of 84
players against the Cavaliers
Saturday. That is what you might
call depth.

***************

The Boilermakers have always
been a top flight team. Under coach
Jack Mollenkopf, they have
finished in the first division of the
Big Ten in 10 of the last 11 seasons.

***************

The Cavaliers opponent for next
week the Keydets of VMI, dropped
their opening contest to Vanderbilt
by a two touchdown margin. VMI
was plagued by a green defensive
backfield, and the lack of an
experienced quarterback.

********************

Most ABC-TV stations will run a
season long program of college
football highlights entitled, "Of
Touchdowns and Men-College
Greats of '68." It will be telecast at
12 noon in the Virginia area.

***************

College football drew over 26
million fans to the stadiums last
fall. Season ticket sales across the
nation have exceeded last year's
mark: looks like another record.

***************

All candidates for the Varsity
Swimming Team should attend a

Gym. First-year men will meet with

Varsity swimmers will meet at 8
