THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. SEPTEMBER 29, 1929- ART 5. 3 Maryland Handily Takes Opener : Catholic U. Is Nosed Out by Boston College OLD LINE SOPHS CONQUER WASHINGTON COLLEGE, 34-7 Come Back Strong After Eastern Shoremen’ Score in First Period and Have Count 26-7 When Varsity Goes in Late in Game. U at College Park yesterday, 34 to 7, to start its 1929 gridiron campaign. It was a better Washington College team than Maryland beat last year, 31 to 0, and in the 1928 clash, the Old Liners were forced to use their varsity in the third Feriod to get all their points, the reserves being played to a standstill in the other three-quarters. Maryland’s all-sophomore reserve team showed its mettle in coming back strong after a bad start in which the doughty Eastern Shore combination put the ball across the line for a touchdown early NIVERSITY OF MARYLAND, playing its reserve team for more than three-quarters of the game, defeated Washington College in the opening quarter. However, the Terrapin sophs pulled themselves together in good style and when the Mary- land_seniors, with the excepticn of Ribnitzki, right tackle, who has a bad ankle, dashed on the field after the fourth quarter was well under way, the count was 26 to 7. Four touchdowns were made by the sophs, who were aided by Roberts in the second half, the only regular to go in until the veterans were trotted out for a workout in the late stages. Dopson's Punt Effective. Maryland’s sophs did not look so good at the outset and a good punt by Dop- son of the visitors and a poor one by Miller of the Old Liners gave Wash- ington College the ball on the 22-yard mark. Here the invaders worked a pass from Dopson to Plummer to get the ball on the 5-yard line and Clemente car- ried it across. Dopson kicked goal and the Old Line rooters were uneasy. Then the Maryland sophs began to function. Taking the ball on their own 30-yard line, with Miller, Chalmers and Settino doing most of the ball toting, they marched to a touchdown. Chal- mers mage the touchdown and kicked goal, and the count was deadlocked. Washington College was ineffective on attack after that and the Old Liners were kept from making the score big- ger by penalties and a couple of costly fumbles. Chalmers got the second score in the next quarter after the Old Liners had marched 44 yards, despite being set back 18 yards on.a penalty. He failed to kick goal and the half ended, 13 to 7. A 65-yard march which Roberts finished ~ netted another ~Maryland counter in the third period. He failed at goal. Roberts Gets Loose. Roberts, early in the last quarter, contributed mainly to a fourth touch- down with a 45-yard run, but Itaz;s Cronin who took the ball across. erts missed the goal. Here the Maryland vets went into the game and lost the ball on a fumble by Roberts after it had been run to the 2-yard mark. A bad pass, though, cost Washington College a safety as it ‘was trying to punt from behind the line, the ball grounding behind the end zone. A few minutes later Lombard blocked a kick and Dyott recovered on ‘Washington’s 3-yard line. Roberts took the ball across and J. McDonald missed the goal to make the final count, 34 to 7. In addition to the good running of Miller, Settino and Chalmers, Berger and May did some skillful pass catch- ing, and the all-around play of the soph team was commendable. Maryland (34). _Positions.

TENNESSEE VICTOR herkey, OVER CENTRE, 40-6|3 By the Assaclated Press. KNOXVILLE, Tenn., September 28.— The University of Tennessze opened its 1930 foot ball season here today with a 40-to-6 victory over Centre College in a game as remarkable for the Colo- nels’ determined first-half battle as for the brief flashes of the old-timep ower shown by the Volunteers. ‘The fighting men from Danville made their way time and again through an uncertain Volunteer line, scored one touchdown on an intercepted pass, and at the half left Tennessee a disap- inting 8-to-6 lead. The Vols came g:ck in the closing period with four touchdowns and a defense the Colonels could not break. Eugene McEver scored three of Ten- nesses’s touchdowns. Behind perfect ! interference he ran the opening kick- off 90 yards. Dodd, quarterback, con- verlt“ed the first of three successful drop c] Centre produced all it could show in the second, holding Tennessee score- less and getting its' one touchdown when Ruffini, end, intercepted a poo: from Kohlhaz, substitute Vol , and ran 30 yards.

NAVY SHOVSSPEED TOSHAWPDEMSON Middies Build 47-0 Score in Every Quarter With Running Game. Special Dispatch to The Star. NNAPOLIS, Md., September 28. —Casting off for the season of 1929 here this afternoon by de- feating Denison 47 to 0, the Naval Academy foot ball team went far to promise a successful voyage through its schedule. ‘The team, changed frequently as the game progressed, exhibited a running game of a bigh order for this period of the season, and scored in every quarter. In the third quarter the Midshipmen | only succeeded in cro.mn% the goal | line of the visitors once, but in the other three two touchdowns were regis- tered. Joe Bauer scored extra points with drop-kicks on four of the five occasions he was called upon. ‘The Navy occasionally resorted to the | passing game, but indicated that it had | not yet brought it to a level with its running game. However, passes from | Spring to Moret in the first half and from Toth to Clifton in the third regis- tered around 35 yards each. Moret's catch was a particularly fine one. Denison Shows Little. Denison showed little in its attack and gained a total of but 14 yards du ing the whole first half. Philbricl gain of 14 yards from scrimmage, fol- lowed by a pass netting 9 yards, was the only flurry on the attack which the visitors achieved. Kohlhas scored the Navy's first touchdown, and its first for the season, 6 minutes after the first quarter started. ‘The Navy received the kick-off, and with Spring and Kohlhas doing the gaining, carried the ball 90 yards for a touchdown. Sensational plays marked the second and fourth quarters. the second, Moret pulled down a long pass from Spring in beautiful style, the play net- ting 40 yards. Both of the Navy's scores in the final quarter were on brilliant plays. For the first touchdown Crane blocked one of Philbrick's punts, Clifton falling on the ball behind the line. For the sec- ond, Chifton took a pass from Toth and ran 35 yards, and then scored on a crash-cross play. (47). Position. Left end.

C., September 28.—1If folks in and around the city of Washington and the good old State of Maryland have any desire to see about as husky and capable a group of foot ball players as are likely to be found any- where in this broad expanse of country known as the South, it will not be necessary for them to do anything more than take a trip to College Park next Saturday and just one look at the Uni- versity of North Carolina. The Tarheels trotted out against Wake Forest today an aggregation which stands as the best the writer ever has seen in any South Atlantic institution, D | sented Georgetown some years ago, when Gilroy and his mates were march- had Gell | ing through all opposition. North Carolina has an array of backs ii | that are more versatile and more capa- ble than any Georgetown has ha T | years, or any other eleven the writer has seen has possessed. Nash, Wyrick. Erickson, - Branch, Ward and Magner are fast, they can run with the ball brilliantly, and do about everything else there is to do on the foot ball field. Then add to these men the names of Ax snuldlng and House as fullbacks, who had no difficulty today toppling over ends as if they were cardboard, and Carolina has two sets of backs that are good, and good without any qualifi- cation _whatsoever. Next Saturday North Carolina meets Maryland, and, while it may not be good psychology to say so, it is just a plain statement of fact that every man of the eight mentioned is a better back than the best one Maryland has. Has Strong Line, Too. And the line, especially the first stringers, measure well up to the stand- ard of the backfield. It is big, heavy, fast and experienced. It is not a line of heavy set, ponderous men, but a line of tail rangy players who seem to know what to do and how to do it. ‘There is no group of second string linemen who are just as as the first p, such as is the case with the backfield, but the second string line- men are not bad, while the first string outfit is about the best aggregation of Crowley Combines Two Fine Systems BY SOL METZGER. One of the interesting phases of foot ball from the spectator's angle is the various ways used to execute the same play. Take the off-tackle smash, the backbone of attack with any mr:rm Few work it alike. Slight ces, the hdlvflufl‘ mm}a:ynmn“wnsn of each creep execution.

This one | has everything that a good foot ball team | needs.

Not that Wake Forest | | was not a big team. because it was. The | | Wake Forest outfit really outweighed | | North Carolina, but it just could noi ® | play as much foot ball. Varsity Team Yanked. | ‘These North Carolina backs turned and twisted their way inside and out- side of ends, cut back over the tackles, caught long forward passes until they opened up Wake Forest’s line, then pounded through it. No telling how many points that the first and second string backfields would have -scored be- hind that first-string line had they been left in. But the whole varsity was yanked at the end of the first quarter, and the second and. third quarters were reduced to 12 and 10 minutes each. ‘The sentiment here in Chapel Hill is that Carolina not only has the best team from every point of view that has ever represented it, but that it is going to give all its Southern opponents plen- ty to think about. The only feeling of apprehension here seems to be that too much may be said of the strength of the eleven and the men may get over-confident and have to take a bump to bring them back. However, nobody here has any thought other than that Carolina has a great foot ball team, and this is one general sen- timent that seems absolutely justified. ‘Whatever the University of Maryland may accomplish against” the Tarheels next Saturday afternoon, it may as well make up its mind, collectively as well as individually, that it must face the strongest and most generally ver- satile group of foot ball players that it has ever met representing anv South Atlantic school. This North Carolina eleven is far better in virtually every department of play than the one that last vear beat Maryland 26 to 19 in one year.

Two sophomore halfbacks, Rolf Carls- ten and Warren Gette, scored Pennsyl- vania’s two touchdowns, and Carlsten and Masters adced the extra ints. Franklin and Marshall's touchdown was scored by Halfback Arthur Dorsey and the extra point by Britton. Dorsey was recently a student at Duke Uni- versity. Pennsylvania scored on one of those ahys seen once in a while when Carls- n, a former Dewitt High School star of New York City, caught Franklin and Marshall's kickoff at the opening of the game on the three-yard line and ran the 97 yards for a touchdown.

The Gamecocks will try the Cavaliers to the utmost. Coach Laval is reported to have a squad of veterans that is rated as one of the best in the confer- ence. One of his stars will be the same Zobel who has wrecked Virginia's hopes for two seasons. ” Virginia will go to Columbia with many of the men who played against South Carolina last Fall and with not 2 few who were in the 1927 contest.

The Iowa eligibility committee de-|line clared Pape eligible after hearing the results of an investigation by Athletic Director E. H. Lauer. The charges were made in information sent by Maj. John L. Griffith, Big Ten athletic com- missioner, to Lauer. It was claimed Pape had played with a Galena, IlL, team against Darlington, Wis., in 1927. Lauer’s investigation revealed Pape had served as umpire in the game, hav- ing been drafted when another official failed to appear, and had not received payment. The committee, however, failed to certify the eligibility of Matt Kelsh, a reserve end, whose standing also was questioned in Maj. Griffith’s letter. The committee decided further investigation would be necessary before a decision could be reached. HARPERS FERRY IN TIE AT MARTINSBURG, 12-12 Special Dispatch to The Star. MARTINSBURG, W.

In fact had it not been for a decision that allowed the Eagles a first down within the very shadow of the Washington goal posts the battle would have ended in a 6 to 6 tie. And this, in spite of the fact that the Eagles made no less than 16 first downs while their opponents could collect but three during a very strenuous afternoon. Outrushed by locals who gained plenty of ground by means of the forward pass, the Catholic University team was threatened in every period and yet save in two instances were the Eagles able to score. Twice during the first half the Eagles brought the ball to the very threshold of a goal, reaching the 5-yard line on first down BOSTON, September 28.—Boston College met the sturdiest eleven | McCarthy (Georgetown). in the opening period and then advancin% of the final stripe in the second Not till the third SEahh the ball to within 10 yards thout being able to push it across. riod when the Eagles had threatened to score three times was the exasperated Boston eleven able to register a touchdown. A long forward pass from Colbert to Dixon allowed the latter to run 50 yards for the score. And after the Washington eleven through Malevich's brilliant intercep- tion of an aerial heave and 55-yard run for a score had evened the count in the final quarter, a run-back of a short kick gave the Eagles the break they were looking for. ‘With the ball on the Catholic Uni- versity’s 20-yard line Dixon fell while recelvlnxb:eplu. ‘The officials ruied that he had n tripped, although unbiased critics were of the opinion that he had stumbled.

The work of the Washington center trio, including Menke, Ambrose and Monaco, was superb, these men out- charging the Eagles consistently, while the defensive play of Blasi and Male- vich foiled the Eagles in their scoring efforts all afternoon.

A crowd of approximately 12,000 saw the foot ball curtain run up. After the first two minutes of play, when Army scored its first touchdown through excellent co-operation by Capt. Keener Cagle and Hertz Murrell in ad- vancing the ball, the rest of the first half developed into a ding-dong fight with no advantage in the draw. Second Period Active. ‘The second half had much more Army activity, the home team counting three times, twice through the same Murrell-Cagle combination, so effective at the start, and the last by the me- dium of a 35-yard pass tossed from Hutchinson, the Army’s most versatile athlete, to Malloy, a rangy end.
