Norton Praises Team : *L*t’s go back to College SU- tion, Texas. You probably never heard of the place unless you're a football fan. There’s nothing there but a college. College SUtion is the home of Texas A. A M., the great Texas Aggies. I doubt wheth er they’ll have much of a football team there next fall. Those 4,500 atudenU are too inUrested in learning ways and means of kill ing Japs and Germans to bother with football. They were just wind ing up spring football practice when I was there and Coach Nor ton was mighty pleased. “They’ll make great soldiers,’ he gloated, watching hi* tall, lean boys run to the showers. ‘Maybe football will help them a little.’ ** ‘What kind of a team will you have next year?’ I asked him. "‘There’s only on* team that counts now,* he said a little re proachfully. That’s America. A lot of our boys will have qualified for service by fall.
