EWILDERING Virginia Polytech- nic Institute tossers with a dis- play of court pyrotechnics,i Uni- versity of Maryland's basket ball quint ran wild in Ritchie Coliseum last night to overwhelm the Gobblers, 51 to_16 The Old Liners pushed their win- ning streak to seven straight, after having dropped the season’s first two contests. Victory over V. P. I length- ened Maryland’s standing in the South- ern Conference, of which it was the titleholder last season, to five wins in as many starts. From the moment that Rufus Vin- cent, big Old Line center, swished the cords 30 seconds after the operning whistle, there was hardly a doubf as o the ultimate outcome. The size of the score was quite a surprise to many as the Gobblers had given Virginia quite a battle Friday night at Charlottes- ville, dropping a hard-fought 26-21 cn- counter. The Cavaliers in tarn had furnished Maryland a_struggle before bowing, 36-31, about 10 days ago. Two floor goals by Vincent, one each by Eozie Berger and Spencer Chase and a foul by Bucky Buscher gave the Old Liners a 9-point advantage before the visitors could score. Joe Bosley, forward, registered twice from the foul line, but except for another foul toss by Palmer, the Gobblers were helpless before the Maryland onslaught and the Terrapins ran their total to 19, several minutes before the intermission. The half ended, Maryland, 21; V. P. I 4 Six minutes of the second half elapsed before Al Seamon scored the visitors’ first court goal of the game. At that stage the Old Liners were in the van, 29 to 4 By this time, V. P.
