Page Twelve wp&SL JTA'S FOOTBALL PREVIEW Results from JTA’s poll of leading colleges and universities from coast to coast show that Jewish students are going in for football in a big way this fall. By the opening kickoff of the 1952 grid campaign, JTA had counted at least 20 Jewish football stars, including many who are expected to make headlines before the sea son ends. There are Jewish play ers on such top teams as Navy, Penn, University of California, Harvard, Wisconsin, Princeton and many more. In addition, there’s a coach who’s one of the best in the country. This does not include the squad of Brandeis University, which is non-sectarian, but has numerous Jewish players among its stars. There is also Yeshiva University. Undoubtedly, there are many more names to be added to the JTA roster, ahd they’ll be passed along as they come in during the course of the season. Taking the big ones first, a look at the lineups shows Navy’s Jack Wilner as a major hopeful this season. Wilner, who hails from Pittsburgh is in the Navy back field. He’s one of the team’s tall est backs, standing six-foot-one. Penn boasts a trio of Jewish stars, all slated to be starters. Back in uniform again will be Don Zim mer, Dick Rosenbleeth, and Mark . Levitan. Columbia fans won’t Jiave any trouble remembering Zimmer. Last season he broke away for an important 66-yeard run against the Lions to establish the high "mark of the season on the Penn team for a run from scrimmage.

Bth Street Phone 4-0524 JEWS IN SPORTS BY BILL WOLF (Copyright, 1952, Jewish Agency, Inc.) Zimmer, whose home is in New York, averaged five yards per try in carrying the ball. Roosen bleeth, a Philadelphian, is a start er as defensive end, and Levitan, also from Philadelphia, is a guard. Penn officials wouldn’t be surprised if Levitan, now only a soph, turns out to be another Bernie Lemonick, who was an All-American for Penn in 1950. The University of Wisconsin has been looking foreward to the services of freshman Mickey'Git litz. Harvard also may stand to gain from two newcomers, Dave Silverman, who plays end, and Herb Grossman, a guard. Bub Gutt, a leading tackle on the George Washington University eleven, could wind up with Southern Conference recognition, providing he has better breaks than last year. After making a good showing, he suffered a frac tured elbow that sidelined him. The Princeton Tigers’ lineup includes Harry Berkowitz, a soph who is making his debut in a varsity uniform. Pittsburgh has a double-threat man in the person of Stuart Kline, who is studying dentistry. Kline, a veteran letter man of two seasons, has been holding down the center slot. However, this year he may play offensive tackle as well. Boston University has a couple of old faithfuls back in uniform—Sey mour Pollack, and Arnie Berg. Pollack, who turned in a good performance last year, still has two more seasons, but this will be Berg’s farewell year. Co-captaining the University of Bridgeport’s eleven is Joe Finkel stein, a senior who starred at Erasmus Hall High in Brooklyn. He’s a first-string right half-back and excells in swift, slippery run ning. One of his teammates is Arnold Epstein, a guard. Harry Garfinkel, a letterman, is back with Lehigh University as a cen ter. He weighs 206 pounds and stands six feet tall. BEST WISHES MILLER CIGAR COMPANY Incorporated 181 THIRD AVE., N.
