Red club in size and experience,
may make him revise that nnin-

Naturally, Snavely , shies from

Fortunately, Charlie Justice, the
165-pound tailback, whose run-

up among the nation’s leaders in
all departments, has escaped the
jinx.
Justice has been an | inspirin,
perfoi-mer. Snavely calls him:
wonderful boy. A great team man
with spirit and qualities of lead-
more yardage, keep the ball long
