GREEN TERROR IS BACK WITH STRONGER ELEVEN Western Maryland Is Two or Three Touchdowns Better Than When Year—Maryl: BY H. C. BYRD. OM MILLS this week faces the first really difficult hur- dle of his regime at George- town. Saturday at noon the Blue and Gray squad jumps over to Baltimore to meet in Western Maryland College an eleven strong enough to try the soul of any op- ponent. Last {m Western Maryland came | o Washington and whipped Lou Little's Georgetown team, 7 to 0, and right now ‘Western Maryland is at least two, pos- flbb'M'.hrse, touchdowns better than it n. was Big, strong, fast, experienced, and well coached just about describes West- ern Maryland’s eleven. And “big” is here used in the real mesning of the word as it applies to ath'etes. There are any number of big mén in all the «colleges, but a “big” athiet® is another term entirely. He is not oniy a big man, but one who can do all theé stunts that usually are done only by the small but mgile, quick and fast man. In other wors, Western Maryland has a foot ball e It s not an easy situation for Mills. Ut is the first time that he has been put to the acid test in which he has to stand up in front of an opponent before which his predecessor feil by the way- side. It is the same hurdle that Lou Little, as he represented Georgetown, ® year ago failed to take. It is a hurdle that at that time was less difficult, be- cause Western Maryland now is & stronger eleven. In addition, Mills is placed in the position of being against & harder proposition, while he lacks (h'e wveteran material out of which Little's sleven was bulilt. ‘Mills, with poorer material and under mew conditions, faces a stronger team that beat G town a year ago. That fact should sink deep in the hearts of Georgetown alumni, who should realize the handicap Mills is under. If he loses to Western Maryland, and he certainly has no better than an even chance to do more than that, if he has an even chance, then he is doing nothing more nor less than that which might ordi- narily, under the conditions, be ex- . If he wins, Georgetown may rest assured that Mills has made 3 that he is gett as much out of the material he bas as could any other hu- man being. an'nm' Maryland has seemed strong n the games it has played, but it has not yet shown its real power and versa- | tility. No other coach in the cDun'—rYi can conceal the real strength of his team better than Dick Harlow. It s a | game at which Harlow is a past master | and Georgetown may as well get ready to face a wu‘:gn':r )luyl:hn.d_ m which actuglly is stronger n 80 far and which probably is stronger Georgetown expects it to be. Especially i this true if the men who have scouted Western Maryland for Georgetown are not familiar with Har- low's methods of developing an eleven and bringing it up to a pitch for a encounter. test E It should be a great game, as good arfy Georgetown will play around this year. It is going to be Tom Mills' first real test, and he must face | that test with the knowledge that he | -mwnnn-nht.h‘:dt‘mp' be .;‘12 i may e wi last year, the extent of which none other than he can realize. It would not be fair to Mills to let him face such & test without telling something of what Be is up against, because he could not fell the true facts without seeming to e getting ready a possible alibi. Hence, this story. anybody out at the University of Maryland were superstitious he cer- tainly would feel that the foot ball representing that university has 8 jinx attached to it, as the Old Liners certainly have seemed to play in the toughest kind of luck in their games Wwith Yale and North Carolina, espe- rially against the latter. Saturday at Chapel Hill, Maryland apparently did | \everything just a little bit better than ‘arolina, yet it lost by four touchdowns o three. ‘That, from a jinx standpoint, ight be attributed to luck, but noth- ing would be further from the fact. Maryland has a good foot ball team. at it has offensive power has been roved by 14 points against Yale and | 1 against North Carolina. And, as far any consistent running or forward ing_attack is concerned, the Old ers have most of the time stopped gverything their opponents have had to pffer. Under such conditions it might seem that luck has played too impor- tant & part in the victories its oppon- ents have won. However, the actual truth is that Maryland has, in com- | ison to the teams it has met, an | nexperienced “green” eleven and the | margin which has given the other | elevens victory is the margin that lies | between inexperience and experience. It has been a case of experience tak- ing advantage of the mistakes of inex- | perience. Maryland's two ends are | tackles made over into ends and it has | been a lack of that knack of covering | ts that experienced ends have that | Bas ‘cost the eam dearly in both its | contests. It has two guards and a cen- | ter. t¥o of whom played no foot ball | and one of whom played virtually none | before entering Maryland. It has a back who never had on & foot ball suit until he entered Mary- Jand and whose entire experience at Maryland consists of having been a | substitute end on the freshman team | other year, and Western Maryland fans | the competition in the 125-pound group and having played in parts of four|are just as anxious as the Georgetown (was not so even. | rooters to see if this year's crop of | Terrors will live up to the record estab- |ace downed Apaches, 18 to 6; Stantons | games last year as a substitute back That tells Maryland's story, but there also is another story that can be told before the season is finished if the Old Liners continue to profit by their mis- takes. they held the ball as well | at Yale as they did against North | Carolina they would have won from | Yale. | But with that improvement they | made three almost ridiculous mistakes | against Carolina that gave Carolina | three touchdowns and victory. But, rather strange perhaps for a coach to say in such a case, the chaps who made those mistakes are intelligent and are not likely to make the same mistake again. Consequently, Maryland will t better as the season goes on, and it fl'llr from bad now. TH!B-I-‘ seems just one thing for Coach Bes nn at Catholic Uni- lo—keep & stiff upper lip and build from the ground up. And, to go a little further, there seems just gne thing for Catholic University au- thorities t any man must ha % mbc:m:ptmh: um’-’t‘lon ::\eu and attain ccess the university merits.

It has in its faculty some of the most learned men in the world and in its religious colleges has represented the highest tyfie of thought. An institu- tion of this kind certainly deserves something better in the one department in which it gets a direct comparison before the public with other institu- tions than the poor work its teams have been doing. Athletic teams reprssent the university, not a department of the university, and they should be repre- sentative of the best thought, ths high- est conception of loyalty, and of the virility and strength of the university itself.” C. U. teams do not measure up to this standard, but they should— and can. GZORGK ‘WASHINGTON did not win from Delaware without difficulty, but it won, and victory for the Colonials is all the sweeter for the fact that it is_the first in two years. The Buff and Blue seems to be coming along about as well as Coach Pixlee has ex- pected. It is Pixlee's aim to bring along the squad slowly so that he can have it in the best possible condition for the final games on the schedule. His great tests of the year will be with Catholic U. and Navy. He knows he must win the former and he would like to make as good a showing as possible in the latter, EORGIA played = great game against Yale and brought back to the Southland the second brilliant victory of the year, the other having been won by Vanderbilt. The Georgians were outclassed in the first half, hav- ing 11 first downs made against their one, but in the second half they fought as only inspired teams can fight at times, and for the second consecutive year won from the Dark Blue. It is the first time in the history of Yale foot ball that any so-called minor eleven has beaten it in consecutive seasons. EORGIA TECH did not fare so well as Georgia. The Atlanta eleven went down before Carnegie Tech a one-sided score, so much so that Bill Alexander, Georgia Tech coach, is sald to have remarked, “That is the best foot ball team I ever saw.” Which means that Carnegie Tech must have a preu;‘ fair eleven as Alexander's school met Notre Dame several times, 'ANDERBILT continued its merry way by trimming Virginia Poly- technic Institute, 40 to 0, and it is noted in connection with this that Johnny Askew, the young man who ran line-up.

BACK WITH BETTER TEAM Green Terror Two or Three| Touchdowns Stronger Than Last Year. ESTMINSTER, Md,, Octo- | ber 13 (8pecial) —West- ern Maryland’s Green Terrors already are con- centrating on what probably will be their biggest battle of the sea- son—the game with Georgetown | University in the Baltimore Stn-‘\‘ dium next Saturday afternoon. | The contest will be a full-fledged | foot ball event in more ways than one. | In the first place, it will afford George- town an opportunity to vindicate its | ignominious defeat at the hands of a | little upstart college team last season. Foot ball fans will remember the upset last year when Western Maryland as- tonished the foot ball world by defeat- ing the mighty Georgetown elevep m the second contest of the year. As the season wore on and the. Ter- rors hung up & record of 11 3rtaight victories, the astonishment gradually changed to respect for Dick Marlow's fighting eleven.

Mooney, considered one of the best punters in the country, can only be matched by Western Maryland’s loss of Capt. Charlie Havens, who for three years was one of the best centers in Maryland. However, enough promis- ing material seems to have shot up on both teams from the ranks of last year's freshman elevens to counter-balance such losses as graduation and with- drawals. The Hoyas will be especially anxious to stop Capt. Paul Bates, end de luxe, who was mely responsible for West- ern Maryland’s victory last year. Bates was placed on All-America elevens last Fall.

GALLAUDET POINTS FOR NEWARK GAME Line-Bolstering Blues’ Big| Need Before Delaware Team Is Met. ITH two straight » victories tucked away, Gallaudet's foot ball team today opened | another week of preparation | for the University of Delaware game at Newark, Del, next Saturday. The | Blues did not meet Delaware last year, | but have played on the Newark grid- iron before. In the wake of Saturday's game with | American U., both teams were left with | numerous cuts and bruises on their hands | although the Eagles appeared to have suffered the greater portion of the casualties. i Coach Teddy Hughes may claim to have & “team” at last, but.humerous defects were in evidence against the Eagles that must be remedied if Del ware is to be thumped. There wa the instance when with the ‘ball on the 1-foot. line, Rabbit Ringle’s-line thrust was pushed back by a lighter Eagle line. ‘Delaware has a much heavier line | that might halt the Blues’ gains. Gallaudet Needs Punter. While the ends show up creditably, thanks to Monaghan, the remainder of the line did not function as Coach Hughes had a right to expect. At times they were offside or charged out of order, making it easy for the Eagles to essay line bucks for good yardage. Prosty Diehl and Borsar{ consistently out-kicked the Blues, and while these gains were made up by long run-backs and excellence in other departments, the Blues have failed to uncover a real kicker. Gamblin was suposed to be good, but | has been playing at end, consequently | being of no use as a punter in the | Blues’ styles of play. | SHARP GRID TUSSLES | IN SPORT MART LOOP Teams in 135-Pound Section Are Well Matched—125-Pounders Not Balanced.

OS ANGELES, October 13.— Queen Glenna Collett with four championships to her| credit since her first ap- pearance in national play in 1919, today came to the defense of her American title over the menacing Los Angeles Country Club golf course against a fleld of 99 as-| pirants. One of the greatest shot makers in | the feminine ranks, the New York woman will seek her fifth crown in a dozen years, with three former cham- plons, nine international team members and the runner-up to her 1929 title among the contenders.

For example, in one of the four-ball matches in that torrid Columbia-Indian Spring engagement for the Maryland State team championship, which was won by Indian Spring yesterday over the Four Corners course, the best ball of the four was exactly eight under par for eight consecutive holes. Those playing in this match were Tommy Bones and George P. James of Colum- bis and J. Munro Hunter, jr., and Dr. L. 8. Otell of Indian Spring. Birdies were not enough even to halve holes, for on the par 5 seventh hole Hunter secured a birdie, only to lose the hole to an eagle by James. In another match, W. Carlton Evans of Columbia was so warm that at the OLF around Washington gets for a 70, one under par, for the layout. That he finished with a 71 obably only came about because he didn't need the 3, 4 for the 70. But the hot scoring was not con- | fined to the team match. Over at Con- gressional, where Clarence Murphy won his second ‘consecutive Congressional Country Club championship, we,watch- ed that meticulous shot maker putting together a flock of pars and an oc- casional birdie to whip Page Hufty in the final round by 4 and 3 and demon- strate again that no matter how well a man may be playing his shots through the green, if his putting is not up to snuff he is not likely to win a golf match. Oh, yes, we almost forgot to- mention those five birdies that Elliott Spicer and Leroy Sasscer picked up in their match in the team engagement against Mil- ler B. Stevinson and Everett Eynon. And over at Washington, where this traveling golf reporter made one of the stops of the day, we found Calvert Dickey bewailing the fact that a birdie 4 on the long fifteenth hole does not even a half. “I played a fine mashie niblick shot to within a few inches of the cup, and the boys conceded my putt for & 4,” Dickey said. “But Chuck Haley came along and sank a 40-footer l‘:{"m eagle 3, and I didn't like it a Indian Spring and Columbia were tied In the court in the team match yesterday after the first three matches had come in, bu then along came Her- bert L.

PONTIAC, Mich., October 13.—Wal- ter Hagen defeated Tommy Armour, 3 and 2, in the 36-hole final of the Michigan P. G. A. tournament yester- day at Birmingham Golf Club to win his first championship of the year. Hagen and_the present national P. G. A. champion fought a close battle during the morning round, and neither was more than 2 up until the eleventh hole in the afternoon. Hagen took the tenth and eleventh holes to become 3 up and earned the match at the six- teenth as Armour found a tree between his ball and the cup and got into two traps before he picked up. In defeating Armour, Hagen made up to some extent for a lean season. Armour has won the Canadian open in addition to the national professional title and some big money tournaments, including the $10,000 St. Louis open. A. e de.
