WHO WILL RECEIVE IT? The "Flying Cleat," a new football exchange trophy, will enhance the traditiona l rivalry between the University of Dayton and Marsh all College beginning with the 1948 seaon. The prize, a brightly gilded football shoe, owes it present vaunted position to the rummaging of Athletic D irector Harry Baujan and the ferti le imagina tion of Publicity Director Hugh Brown. Exactly how the " F lying C leat" idea originated is a trifle vague, but the story goes somet hing like this. It seem that Ba ujan, perturbed by the glowing press notices the '48 F lyers have been receiving, happened aero an old football shoe that belonged to one of his all-time sta rs. Seizing the shoe, he bur t into the squad's dre sing room an d announced to all the present-day hopefuls, " W hen you guys get so you can fill this shoe you'll be ball players." Brown h eard about the incident and, sensing a story, managed to cop the shoe from Baujan's office. H e painted it a glistening gold, christened it the "Flying Cleat" and, to lend a uthenticity to the n ame, had it flown over the mountains to Marshall in a chartered plane with the understanding that the Thundering H erd would h ave the shoe in its

possession when it opens D ayton's home stand on O ctober 9. The idea was enthu iastically received by both D ayton and Marshall supporters. Contests between the F lyers and the H erd have been held almost yearly since 1932, and the addition of a trophy will undoubtedly sharpen the already keen competition between the two schools. The "Cleat" will rest on a pedestal a long the sidelines during the M arsh all game. After the contest the score will be placed on the shoe with black paint and it will go into the trophy case of the winning school until the two teams n ext meet on the gridiron.

Carroll Bows to Flyers, 26-18 LATE BULLETIN: Flyers Lose to St. Bonaventure 7-6 at Olean , N . Y .

Flyer boosters, students and alumni w'h o set up the pre-season ch ant that this is U.D.'s year are making with the " I-told-you-so's" after witnessing the team in action for the first time this year against John Carroll, Friday, Sept. 24, at Cleveland Municipal Stadium . The Flyers were off to a flying start, defeating a highlv-keyed Blue Streak eleven in a th~ill packed demonstration of brilliant offensive maneuvering by two teams well-schooled in the T forma tion . All the elements of a grudge match were pre ent in the game which brought two long-time chool coaching rivals, Joey Gavin, formerl y of Cleveland H oly Name, a nd H erb (Skeeter ) Eisele, from Cathedral La tin, meeting for the first time on a college level. D ayton went into the game a two touchdown favorite on the basis of its line strength a nd reserve depth, a nd in the fin al an alysis it was as these two factors tha t spelled the difference. Carroll, highly touted as passing specialists, came through as expected, connecting for all three of their T. D. via the air-lanes. Dayton looked brilliant on the ground a nd spa rkled generally on offense. The defense was sometimes ragged a nd a few lapses on pass defense gave momentary heart failure to the 1500 screaming D ayton fans who followed the team by train, car and bus to Cleveland. Artful Art Bok again proved himself a great all-around ball player by uncorking a spectacula r 75-yard touchdown gallop on the opening play of the second half, as well as preventing a sure Carroll score by overtaking T aseff, the Streaks' fleetfooted fullback after a 60-yd . chase. "Chief" Toscani and Joe Zaleski, alternating a t quarterback for the Flyers, put on an aerial show of their own, setting up three of the four Davton tallies with pas es. Jim Hanmy, Flyer All-Ohio guard, played his usual rugged game, and Bill Gutbroci, crappy left end, had a terrific night in front of his home-town Clevelanders. Little Bill M cKinley, who managed to win the coveted starting post at right half, displayed a lot of speed and drive, promising to supply Gavin with an unexpected one-two punch at the halfback posts. D ayton scored its first points only

six minutes after the initial kick-off. Carroll had elected to receive. Moran took Otten's kick on the goal line and returned to the 27. Kilfoyle, Carroll's passing ace, connected on the first play to M oran in the left fiat for a first down to th e Streaks' 41. Taseff drove to D ayton's 48 and another first down on three tries. After two incomplete passes and a loss of five yards on a third, Petkovik punted to Zaleski and D ayton took over on their own 22. Bok skirted right end for a first down to the Flyer 34. Two line plays failed before M cKinley galloped over left tackle for another first down. A pass from Toscani to Gutbrad was complete to the Carroll two-yard line. R ay J a naszek bucked left guard for the score on the next play. Otten's placement was wide. Dayton 6, Carroll 0. The Blue Streaks lost little time in retalia ting. Moran took Otten's kick on the 2 and returned to the 18. On the third try T aseff ripped through for a fir t down to the Carroll '35. A third down pass from Schaeffers to J a nia k was good for 59 yards and the tying touchdown. Kilfoyle's placement try was blocked . D ayton 6, Ca rroll 6. Zaleski's pitching arm accounted for another tally in the opening minute of the second quarter. His first toss to Bok took the ball to the Carroll 37, a nd after one running play

h e again threw, this time to Babione in the end zone. Otten's kick was good and D ayton lead 13-6. The Flyers third score came on the very fir t play of the second ha lf. Carroll's kick-off was returned to the D ayton 25. On the next play, after faking a hand-off to the right half, Toscani gave to Bok, who found a hole at right guard. H e knifed through, picked up two interferences, and travelled 75 yards unmolested for the touchdown. Otten again split the up-rights and the score stood D ayton 20-Carroll 6. Midway in the third period, th e Blue Streak tallied again, this time by virtue of a blocked kick, which gave them po session on the U. D . 35. Moran tood all alone on the D ayton 5 to nag Petkovic's pass, and stepped into pay dirt. The a ttempted placement was blocked, and Carroll trailed 20-12. Exactly three plays later D ayton nullified the Streaks' latest bid. A long Toscani pass from mid-field to McKinley on the fifteen was good for ix points. Thi placement was missed, but Dayton till led, 26-12. The Clevelander's final score came in the final minutes of the fourth quarter. Carroll had the ball on Dayton's 32, when Morgan evaded the F lyer secondary to grab Shaffer's pa s in the end zone. The kick was no good, and the ball game went to the Flyer, 26- 18.

to press, it might be well to look a t the remaining eight contests on the Flyer ' schedule and ee what the opposition h as to offer for the '48 season. The Flyers will be operating the T for a second year and have a better appreciation and understanding of its potentialitie . This year looks for Dayton to be delving into the finer points of the offensive, including variou combinations of flankers, split , and m en in motion . Just how the opponent have revised a nd improved their technique over 1947 can't be ascertained till later in the season, but h ere's orne "scoop" on what we can expect.

MARSHALL M a rshall, who will provide the opposition for the home opener, October 9, will be battling to improve their all-time U.D. record of fo ur wins aga in t ix losse . Last meeting in 1946 ended in a 29-7 win fo r Dayton. This year, however, Marshall has the same players who molded an impres ive 7-2 record last season and are showing a greatly improved club. They were snowed by Mia mi' power house 38-6 in their opener, but came back th e next week to knock off Morehead State T eachers, 19- 7.

TOLEDO The R ockets are carrying 14 players who won berths on po t-season honorary teams, and till have the majority of the squad that handed last year's Flyer a close 14-1 3 defea t. Some indica tion of Tole's power may be noted in the 42-0 drubbing they handed Bates thi year. Last week the Rockets were beaten by a superior Detroit eleven, 36-0, but that's no indication of their real strength.

ST. LOUIS P lease make your hotel r eserva路 tions for H omecoming b ef o r e October 30 to r eceive a confirmation .

Taking a Look at the Other Games With the John Carroll game neatly tucked away in the win column and the outcome of the Bonaventure tilt not known as this magazine goes

St. Louis University' Billikens will churn U.D. turf in the Flyer ' only home Sunday game on October 24. H ead Coach J. V. Maniaci, former Chicago Bear sta r, packs the knowhow to carry Billiken football to the heights reached by the university's great court team of recent years. Tangling with a club definitely on the upsurge is always tough and Gavin and crew are setting their sights and digging in for this one. So fa r this season St. Louis has oundly beaten Dubuque, 26-6, and lost a tough one to D rake, 14.0.

XAVIER Xavier, traditional rival of long standing, will be out for revenge vvhen D ayton meets them on Muskie ground, Oct. 31. The Flyers dubbed the M uskie 38-6 last year in a game that was tough for th e proud Xavier-

ite to swa llow. A new crop of highly touted fro h h as come up to trengthen the already formidable X quad, which opened its 1948 season by thra hing Eastern K entucky 31-0. A powerful K entucky Univer ity team defeated X avier in their econd game, however, 48-7.

MIAMI Miami, Sun Bowl Ch am p and hottest southern Ohio team in 1947, took U .D .'s measure in 1947 and will be out to do it again when the two T-offensives clash in D ayton November 6. This year's model of the R ed kins still h as such name star a M el Olix, Paul Shoults and John Weaver, and is ra ted every bit as tough as the '47 aggregation. So far thi year they h ave soundly thumped M a r hall 38-6 and tied a favored University of Virginia team, 14-14.

OKLAHOMA CITY (Homecom ing) The Homecoming game, Nov. 13, 路 will feature the first intersectional meeting of tough, capable Oklahoma City and an inspired Flyer club performing 'for thou a nd of grads. The 1948 Oklahoma CityUniversity of Cincinna ti conflict offers a ketchy basis for compa rison as the oil country club fought U.C. to a clo e core in losing. As the ALUMNUS goes to pres, we h ave information on only one of the Oilers' '48 contests-that a 14-7 win over 'orth T exas.

IOWA STATE TEACHERS Last home game of the year pits a powerhouse from the tall corn country of Iowa against the Flyers, Nov. 20. Iowa State T eacher on U.D.'s schedule for the first time, holds five consective North Central Conference titles and ha three Little All - America n honorable mention player on the roster. So far this season they were outgunned in their opener by Iowa Sta te, 27-7, but bounced back to smother Morningside, 32-0.

CHATTANOOGA Fin al game of the year could develop into the spectacular game of the eason when U.D. and Cha ttanooga tangle in T enne see, Nov. 25. J n losing to the Moccasins last year, 19-13, U.D. was on the march when topped by the gun, and the Flyers see vi ctm~' despite a Chattanooga team ch!!duled to meet major oppo 路ition in 1948. Last week th e Moccasin urprised th e experts by holding a nationally famous Georgi a team to two touchdowns, in losing, 14-7.
