POLL OF A. P.
Notre Dame Drops Out ov
Top Ten tor First Time
in Nearly Decade
NEW YORK, Oct. 17—<#—.Army’s |
,'11-conquering Cadets clung to their J
position as the nation's No. 1 col
lege football team today. At the
same time, once-invincible Notre
Da«ae dropped out of the top ten
for the first time in nearly a
decade.
Chopping down a strong Michigan
eleven last Saturday, 27-6, for their
third straight triumph, the un
beaten West Pointers strengthened
their first place grip gained a week
ago in the Associated Press poll.
Coach Earl Blaik’s Black Knights,
unbeaten in their last 23 starts
drew a total of 124 first place bal
lots among the 275 voters cast by
sports writers and sportscasters.
Notre Dame’s fighting Irish, whc
a week ago saw their 39-game non
losing skein snapped by Purdue,
again failed to impress despite their
13-9 victory over Tulane Saturday.
That showing helped push the Irish
from 10th to 11th place.
The University of Washington
moved up from 11th to 10th place.
Notre Dame has finished no lower
than ninth since 1941 and almost
always has been high up in the run
ning during the season. For the
first time in years not a single voter
gave Notre Dame a first place bal
lot. The best the Irish got was a,
third. Their point total was 295.
Army received a total' of 2,427
points to lead a field that included
47 colleges. Oklahoma wrested sec
ond place from Southern Methodist,
moving up one notch on the
strength of its 14-13 victory over
tough Texas. It was the Sooners
24th consecutive victory. The air
minded Mustangs slipped into third
place despite their 56-0 cakewalk
over Oklahoma A. and M.
The big three were followed by:
4 — Kentucky, 5 — California, 6—
Stanford, 7—Texas, 8—Maryland,
9—Ohio State, 10—Washington.
Notre Dame was not the only
team to fall out of the first ten. Its
conqueror, Purdue, almost dropped
out of sight, catapulting from ninth
to 23rd. The Boilermakers received
a dose of their own upset medicine
when they bowed to unheralded
Miami University of Florida, 20-14.
Miami vaulted from 37th spot to
14th place with 170 points. The
Hurricanes received 14 first place
ballots. Other teams to gain No. 1
recognition included Maryland (5),
Washington (5), Clemson 14), Cor
nell (2), and Wake Forest (1).
GLOBETROTTERS HERE
JAN, 9, LIONS REVEAL
A definite date for Tuesday, Jan.
9 has been set for the Harlem Globe
trotters basketball team to appear
in Juneau, it was announced today
by Art Hedges, chairman of the
Lions basketball team. They will
tangle with local all-stars and the
game should be a sellout, Hedges
said.

GORDON MAY BE
RAINIERMANAGER
SEATTLE. Oct. 17 — OR — Joe
"Flash” Gordon, longtime major
league star, is being eyed as a pos
sible successor to Paul Richards as
manager of the Seattle Rainiers.
The Pacific Coast League Club’s
front office discloses that negotia
tions have opened with the Cleve
land second baseman. The former
University of Oregon star, now at
his home in Eugene, Ore., will be
invited here for conferences with
Rainier officials if he evinces any
interest in the post.
He has indicated in the past he
would like to manage a PCL club.
Now 35. Gordon broke into pro
baseball with Oakland in 1936 right
off the Oregon campus. From 1938
until swapped to Cleveland in the
fall of 1946. he was the regular
keystoner for the New York Yan
kees.
If signed by Seattle, he would be i
a playing manager.
Simultaneous with their disclo- 1
sure of the Gordon development, i
Seattle officials announced the out- I
right release of Roger (Doe' Cramer
as coach. Presumably he will join
up with Richards a;id tho Chicago
White Sox.
