M made it a prized game in the eyes of Kentucky's Wildcats, but the gridiron stal- warts from the Blue Grass will have another incentive when they clash with the Old Liners Satur- - day at College Park. Kentucky was the other finalist when Maryland won the Southdi®| Conference basket ball champion- ship last Winter at Atlanta. The score was 29-27. If in the heat of gridron warfare the memory of that heart-breaking battle should come to the fore, it may be un- fortunate for Bozey Berger, Maryland halfback. It was Bozey who scored’'4 points in the last two minutes to beat the Wildcats at Atlanta, and the long- legged ball toter figures to play a lead- ing part in Saturday's deings. BY R. D. THOMAS. ARYLAND UNIVERSITY'S triumph over the Navy YED-IN-THE-WOOL foot ball folk who have no burning interest in Maryland or Kentucky will drawn to College Park for a look at one of the greatest halfbacks in the coun- try. Urbaniak is his name and he is said to be a second Ted Coy. He is a powerfully made, bruising piece of foot ball machinery, and clever. “Shipwreck” Kelly was thought to be the ace of Kentucky's backfield until Roy Mackert, Maryland scout, came back from a reconnoiter. “Kelly,” Mackert told Curley Byrd, ‘Terrapin co\é:h. “is a good man, but this chap Urbaniak is the goods.” And, according to the Wildcat press department. Kentucky has another ball carrier or two on a par with Kelly. “Shipwreck” resembled anything but & derelict 1n the game with Washing- ton and Lee last Saturday. The Gen- erals took the op:ning kick-off and on three passes reached the Wildcats' 4- yard line. Here they tried another heave which Kelly intercepted and ran almost the length of the field for a tcuchdown. ASHINGTON hasn't sien a pair of first class kickars opposed ihis saecon, but the Kentucky-Mary- land game likely will procuce a bril- liant duel, with Chalmers booting for | the Terrapins and Kercheval for the Wildcats. Kercheval is said to zoom the oval 60 yards with consistency. Chalmers not only excels in distance but in placing the ball. Both teams expect to be in fine physi- cal trim, although several of the Ter- rapins had slight attacks of ptomaine over the wesk end. Several played through the Navy game with alimentary annoyances. ‘The long pass that beat the Middies, by the way, has never been stopped by the efficiency of an opponent, and most of the times it has been used the Ter- rapins functioned almcst perfecly in a mechanical sense.

HYATTSVILLE, Md, October 14— Complying with the requirements of the Playground Athletic League of Maryland, which conducts high school champlonship tournaments in various sports in the different counties, Coach Stanleigh Jenkins of the Hyattsville High School soccer team has submitted to the league a list of 25 players who will be eligible for State play should Hyattsville win the Prince Georges County championship in the series now in_progress. Irg the list are Harvey Love, Warren Kidwell, Blaine Calhoun, Willard Nus- bicke), Carlton Baker, Joe Bladen, John Urquhart, Robert Baker, Tom Hayes, Har{ld _Brown, Francis Green and Henry Eisenschmidt, linesmen; Jimmy Dwiggins, Arnon Mehring, Edward Koch, James Bealor and Willlam Gar- ‘man, halfbacks; George Downing, Dick Lutz, Perry Bost, Richard Quantrill® and Phillip Bowman, fullbacks, and Norman _Neitzey, Bill McClay Sammy Townsend, goal keepers. be and the team in its games to date has LOWERS TANK RECORD Los Angeles Women’s Relay Team Hangs Up 200-Yard Mark.

ASTERN and Gonzaga, for years red-hot athletic rivals, will come to grips in their annual foot ball game tomorrow after- noon in the Eastern Stadium, starting at 3:30 o'clock, and another of those battle royals, characteristic of the games between the Light Blue and Pur- ple, appears probable. Eastern's squad this season contains a flock of players of only limited ex- perience, but Coach Mike Kelley is as | always making the most of the material done most creditably.

Play will start at 3:30 o'clock. Both teams will start the game with- out the services of several mainstays of last season, but the Stenogs’ showing in contests to date this season is cal- culated to give them something of an edge in Friday's encounter.

Wildcats’ Rivals for Big Ten Title Meet Fierce Underdogs; Chicago Steaming Up for Yale By the Associated Press. HICAGO, Octcber 14.—Wisconsin and Ohlo State may punt the Big Ten foot ball championship for 1931 squarely toward the eager arms of Northwestern's Wildcats £aturday. . tackle North- wesiern's greatest rivals for the title Seturday with ju-t the “all to win and nothirg to lose” spirit that delivers upsets in foot ball. Wisconsin battles its old foe, Purdue, while Ohio State engages Michigan, a team it would al- most rather topple than win the cham- pionship. Between the two contenders, Purdue appeared to be in for the toughest fight. Smarting under the criticism they re- ceived tor their sad showing against Little Auburn last week, the Badgers were in a dangerous mood. Furthermore, Purdue upset their championship hopes with a tie in 1928 and these wounds haven't fLealed or been forgotten. Any- way, the Boilermakers weren't very im- pressive in winning against Iliino's’ sophomores last week. Will Toss Oval. ‘The tussle between the Badgers and Boilermakers promised to result in an aerial display, with the Boilermakers doing most of the passing. Coach Noble Kizer was drilling his players on the finer points of the aerial attack, while Coach Glen Thistlethwaite drew up & defense for the attack and polish up a smoother running attack. The rainy spell worried Coach Kizer con- siderably, although it was announced that Eddle Risk, a ground gainer with a well earned reputation, would be back in the game Saturday.

Girds for Yale. Meanwhile the old master of Chicago foot ball, Coach Amos Alonzo Stagg, was brewing an offense with a real kick for the men of Yale, who invade his camp Saturday. Satisfled with his team’s fine defense against Michigan, Coach Stagg gave his players three new plays last night to weave around his celebrated flanker combination. The whole team was all steamed up for the Ynle’ test, although tickets were selling slowly. ‘With his eyes glued on the Ohio State |game October 24 Coach Dick Hanley | of Northwestern eased up on his Wild- | cats. Coach Hanley didn't fear the Los | Angeles branch of the University of | California so much Saturday as he did | that his regulars may be incapacitated Iby scrimmage injuries before the Ohio State battle.

EW YORK, October 14.—As the details for the 1931 charity game botween Army and Navy | are being settled the new order of the service foot ball classic promises to become almost as permanent as the old one, | Although the two fnstitutions still | disagree on eligibility requirements, they | have decided to bring pack all of the | colorful details of the old Army-Navy | games and are, perhaps, in a more re- | ceptive frame of mind concerning the | suggestion that they play next year in | Chicago in connection with the Centen- | nial Exposition. A meeting of officials at Philadelphia yesterday settled upon the Yankee Sta- dium, New York, the scene of last year's | renewal of hostilities, as the place where | this year's game will be played on De- | cember 12; set th: admission prices at $10 for box seats and $5 for stand | seats, and, what is perhaps more impor- tant, agreed that “all the glamour and | color of the earlier Army-Navy games | will be present.” A considerable part of the interest of utside spectators in previous service | games was found in the marching of the cadets and midshipmen and in_the | “stunts” staged between the halves. Last | year something appeared missing when the Navy cheering section performed its feats of manipulating colored cards -mn drawing a reply from the Army s The time for the game was set yes- terday at 1 o'clock (E. 8.

In contrasting uniform will be the Monticello Guard of Charlottesville wearing Colonial costume of the oldest military organization in the United States with a continuous history. Bill Thomas, Virginia captain, will probably be calling signals when the Cavaliers play the Cadets. He has done everything else in the backfleld except serve as field general, and he will probably run the team with the same skill that he carries the ball, punts, passes, tackles and blocks. Gene Wager, who has been playing HARLOTTESVILLE, Va. Octo- ber 14.—All that adds color to . center and tackle, may start against the Cadets on end. Coach Dawson has taken this big fellow, who played first- year center last season, and has given him detailed instructions in flank play. ‘Ward Brewer, reserve fullback last Fall, also may be in the starting back- field.

There is no sense in letting a tough coyote, as Tulsa is rated to be. run around loose. From all I hear, customers, these babies are that' daring that they may swipe the candidacy for President right from under Al Ritchie's nose and take it back to Alfalfa Bill Murray. Listen, to these advance stories on that Golden Hurricane and wonder why G. W. U, does not either appeal to the militia or postpone the fight. Get to the harrow- ing details and you will want to petition your Rep- resentative to have the proceedings halted. But _straighten out. Don't |et‘ them kid you into a lather of per-| plexity, fear and| athlete's feet. Re-| member G. B. S. may have known | what he was talk- ing about ower the aerial zither the other afternoon. George Washington U. is not going to be sitting on the sidelines _playing backgammon Friday night. Those Colonials are going to be in there whittling that Golden Hurri- cane down to a muffied Wheeze. Those Oklahomans are from where men are men and wrestlers go to col- lege. But that’s not quite tough enough to take into camp this season. So far G. W. U. has been rapp| the u&pfl“on with only its backfield a friendly intentions. When the Tulsa Typhoon up, Pixlee is going to send his line in, too, and the intentions will be sent special delivery before the combat starts. Gentlemen, what we mean is that there is going to be plenty war and fracas when George Washington and Tulsa _sneak up on one another under the flickers Friday night. Pixlee’s prides have been waiting for this en- sagement since last season, when the Derrick Riggers slapped them into & coma down there under an oil riggin’. You can safely put it on the line that the combat is going to be one of the luster spots of the week’s Brought Here in Cages. DOERER: So far as technic is concerned there is little doubt that Tulsa will dazzle we paying patrons with as open a game of leather hop-scotch as we e seen since Benny Friedman used to walk down the fleld passing the ball to friends in the stands. Those Western outfits have plenty of room out there to practice passes and runs. When they kick the ball is brought back by age coach. But we get just as far in less time. We never kick ‘em any farther than over the goal posts. Which, when you figure it out, is plenty far enough. But they will | find Griff Stadium | full of cactus when they start to run the width of that prairie. Yep, make it an_even bet that no matter how fleet those Tulsa terrors are, George Washington U. will send Krimmelmeyer and Fenlon after them to direct them in another direction, while Carter and Carlin will not be up in the stands whittling fishing corks, either. Gentlemen, it would be brash to pre. dict the outcome of this griddie con- troversy. But even when you figure Oklahoma is as tough as they tell you in the bedtime stories, it still is not rough enough to come home with the Colonials under it’s arm. 3 U. has scuttled a pair of you-know-w) to point toward this combat. And it is not going to take it on its chin without having first ruffled the beard of its enemy. As I started out to say, this Griff Stadium battle is going to be the foot ball war of wars or I am all wrong, as usual. But no matter who wins, it's worth your depression money, if any.

BYRD, IG Northern foot ball teams B begin this week to go into what to them are the real- ly important games of their schedules. Topping the list, with- out doubt, in general interest is Harvard’s visit to West Point, but for other elevens engaged games just as important are to be played. Yale’s visit to Chicago, for in- stance, is a gridiron event, and in the matter of sentiment alone should hold high place in the year’s contests. Princeton’s meet- ing with Cornell and Dartmouth’s with Columbia also are worthy of consideration among the more im- portant struggles. Last year Army went over to Cam- bridge and took Harvard's measure, 6 t0 0. The game this season not ‘only is featured by a visit of Harvard to the Hudson's banks, but also the first test of a new coaching regime at that university. Eddie Casey, former star Crimson~ halfback, who for years coached the freshman team, is ::ow head coach, and this will be the first big game in vhich Harvard has played under_his diection. And Army is strong enbugh to give Harvard a real test, if its decisive victory over Michigan State counts for as much as some people Chasing Pigskins Résay toog Thompsona pice st grd ly. lompson’s e at guard and Tschirgi ran at bu]{)et Lou l?llrn'l halfback position as the Navy foot ball varsity was put through a light work« out yesterday in preparation for the Delaware game Saturday.

Casey expects to have his team at full strength against Army. NEW HAVEN, Conn., October 14 (#).— Yale's attack gradually is increasing in power and precision. The varsity yes- terday scored four touchdowns against the freshmen, who last week held the first-string outfit to one. Coach Stevens shook up the team in prepara- tion for the clash with Chicago, making three changes in the line and two in the backfield. PRINCETON, N. J., October 14 (#).— Three sophomores and a junior made up Princeton’s backfield in a two-hour drill yesterday. Ceppi went to Larsen's place at fullback. Van Dyke and Hal- ton, also sophomores, and Armour, Junior and letter man last year, rounded out the quartet. UNIVERSITY, Va., October 14 (#)— Virginia's varsity went through all its tricks yesterday in Scott Stadium, which will be dedicated tomorrow with the game against V. M. I. .. Edgar replaced Stevens in the team “A” backfleld and probably will help Capt. Thomas call signals against the cadets. Thomas will announce the play in a huddle and Edgar will call the snapping signal in formation. LEXINGTON, ~Va, October 14— V. M.

Michigan State, before | it went to West Point last week, was| looked upon as one of the country’s | strongest elevens.

ALE visits Chicago to honor Alonzo Stagg, who has coached longer at Chicago than most coaches have lived. This is to be Yale's first trip to the Middle West and will call for a great gathering of Yale men of that section. Yale, it is true, lost to Geor- gla last week and Chicago dropped a game to Michigan, but, after all, a foot | ball game is something beyond mere winning or losing, and two defeated | teams may put up a far more interes ing and colorful combat than two oth- ers that are much stronger and play a | superior brand of foot ball.

Princeton will seek to redeem some- thing of its lost laurels when it faces Cornell. It should take something of a victory over a school of Cornell's cal- iber to provide sufficient balm to heal Iihe wounds suffered by the Tiger last week in his encounter with the Brown | Bear from Providence. Princeton, how- | ever, probably has a much better foot {ball team than it showed against Brown, or else Brown is considerably ‘strunger than anybody expected it to be. Rumor had it at the beginning of practice sessions this Fall that Prince- ton was due for another of its great elevens. Columbia, undoubtedly stronger than in 1930, is anxious to atone for its one-sided defeat by Dartmouth last season. The New Yorkers were whip- ped by Dartmouth by a big margin, but they feel they have a chance to get back at the Green Mountain outfit. Lou Little is not the kind of coach to take two good drubbings in consecutive years if he can possibly avoid it. NOTHER Southern eleven goes North this week to battle one of the larger Northern schools, Flor- ida at Syracuse. If the boys from the Alligator State do as well as the South- ern elevens that went North last week, then foot ball in the South will indeed have an excellent th;: in fhe North. used to be, and not very long ago, that for a Southern mmryto nglp‘vl Northern team was looked upon as almost an impossible occurrence, yet there is nothing especially unusual about it now. Florida may give Syra- cuse an exceedingly lively afternoon. Some of the biggest Southern games of the year are to take place between Southern Conference schools. No con- tests scheduled are likely to produce any better foot ball than those between Tulane and Vanderbilt and between Tennessee and Alabama. And prob- ably not far behind them come the games between Georgia and North Carolina, Georgia Tech and Auburn and Kentucky and Maryland. , while it will not rank by a good deal | comparison portance, the South Carolina-Clemson contest at Columbia is one between great rivals, and for these two teams is the most important of the season. 'OME years back the Georgia Tech- Auburn game on Thanksgiving day ranked among the big occasions of Southern foot ball, but Auburn started to slip and it finally slipped so far that Georgia Tech relegated it to a less im- portant position on its schedule. How- ever, the worm may be turning. Auburn went out to Wisconsin last week and tied that university, which is indica- tion that it is strong enough to give Georgia Tech all that school .nay be looking for, and possibly a little more.
