Gannon Plans His Year

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Art Valpey's first disciples started spreading the single wing gospel yesterday. Chip Gannon and Nick Rodis, named last week as head coach and line coach at American International College in Springfield, opened spring practice there yesterday.

They will spend most of next week familiarizing themselves with the International personnel before returning to Cambridge to complete course requirements for June graduation.

Has Valpey's Notes

Although armed with copies of Valpey's notes, Gannon doesn't expect miracles--at least not for a while. International has only 1400 students and more than half of these are coods.

"We've looked over some of the movies of last fall's games," the 27-year-old former B-17 pilot reports, "and we saw evidence of good individual effort." Gannon says "everybody will start with a clean slate." Last fall International won two, lost four, and tied two.

Springfield Is Objective Game

Gannon thinks Springfield, Connecticut, Colby, and Wesleyan will be the toughest teams to beat next season. "Springfield is our Yale game," he points out. His team starts fall practice the day after Labor Day and will open its season against Colby on September 24, the same day the Crimson meets Stanford at Palo Alto.
