Hope you may write something in Watching the great work of our TRIPLE THREATS OF YORE an upcoming issue of that feat when my classmates and fullbacks Nick Pi- etrosante (East-West Shrine Game), Ron Toth (Blue-Gray Game) and Norm Odyniec (Senior Bowl) each won the MVP honors in their respective games.

Notre Dame, IN 46556 or e-mail to: lsomogyi@blueandgold.com Irish defensive coordinator Bob Diaco will likely be a popular name for head coaching jobs at other schools in the near future if his defense continues to be one of the country's top units.
