TA S A consequence, enthusiasts who forecast a year ago that Italy would rule the athletic world in 1936 now content themselves with express- ing the hope that Italy’s contenders will perform with distinction in their various events and do what is in their power to retain second place. Nevertheless, despite the decimation of her amateur sports ranks, Italy still has left some outstanding per- formers in whom she places great SPORTS. confidence. She expects particularly to show to advantage in fencing, boating, the weight events, cycling, soccer foot ball, gymnastics, boxing, wrestling, rowing, horsemanship and target shooting. Undoubtedly, the red, white and green will be represented again in the middle distance runs by Luigi Beccali, 1932 champion in the 1,500 meters, who is regarded also as & Jikely contender for the 500-meter crown. Mario Lanzi is currently the most prominent candidate for the 800 meters, Ettore Tavernari for the 400 meters and Giorgio Oberwerger for the discus. Fencers Are Skilled. GIUL!O GAUDINI and Gustavo Marzi, the championship fencing team, are expected to prove their skill once more with the rapiers and foils with the support of Luigi Pinton, whose specialty is the saber. Romeo Neti, individual Olympic gymnast champion, likewise is preparing to de- fend his laurels at Berlin, although he may find strong competition on the part of his fellow countryman, BSavino Gugliemetti. The Olympic cycling champion, Benedetto Pola, plans once more to seek Olympic. honors along with Severino Rigonl, whose performances in this sport have won him many backers. In addition Italy expects she ‘will be represented by a strong Winter sports team. In the women's events Italy faces a dearth of trained athletes as a conse- quence of the disfavor with which feminine sports heretofore have been regarded in this country.

STARS WILL DUEL Contest May Center Around Guckeysen, Jackson, With Aerials Numerous. HAT battle between Maryland and North Carolina in Balti- more Saturday, which may have & lot to do with settling the Southern Conference foot ball championship, may turn out to be a duel between Bill Guckeyson and Don Jackson, all-around backs who excel in every department. Jackson, who played a big part in North Carolina’s surprise victory over Tennessee, has been declared by some critics to be the oest passer in the South. A Conference sprint and pole vault champion in 19834, he is a swift and daring runner on the gridiron, ever willing to take chances, even to the extent of running from 6 to 7 yards from behind his own goal. Terp of Same Order. GUCKEYSON is much the same type of athlete, having won high honors in several branches of sport. If there is any choice between the two it would be based on Guckeyson’s superior kicking. Jackson has an av- erage of 39 yards for this season against 46 for Guckeyson. Passing is the forte of each and it ls the aerial duel between the two that is expected to furnish the crowd many thrills. Jackson completed 3 out of 5 against Wake Forest and 7 out of 10 against Tennessee. Guckeyson completed 4 against V. P. L. for 64 yards. Maryland's attack probably will center around Guckeyson’s speed and general utility. One thing is certain, both: teams will cut loose with all they possess to get over what each considers one of the biggest humps inJts path. Each has an uncommon number and variety of plays. practice today and tomorrow to per- fecting its attack. e SR TERP FROSH TO START Play Virginia Yearlings T-mnr- row in First of Five ( University of Maryland's i.....aan foot ball team will make its bow to- morow afternoon by playing the Vir- ginia yearlings in the first tilt of its five-game schedule.

Promises Aerial Circus, With Bob Nolan Heaving Ball EORGETOWN probably will have a new quarterback for Saturday’sgame with Roanoke College, in Bob Nolan, a promising sophomore. Nolan was slated to start for the Hoyas last PFri- day against Albright, but an infected leg kept him out of the line-up and Tommy Keating, former Georgetown Prep star, called signals. Coach Hagerty hopes that under | Nolan's gdirection, Georgetown will start hitting on all cylinders. The Hoya mentor was far from displeased with the showing of Keating, con- sidering the youngster's lack of ex- perience. However, Nolan’s passing and blocking is rated better than Keating’s and in these departments Georgetown was weak against Al-| bright. Nolan is the finest passer on the Hoya squad. He is uncanny in his accuracy and distance. He came to Georgetown last year from V‘Vyormnx Seminary. In his first game as & freshman Bob almost sggle-handedly defeated his alma mater, Wyoming Seminary, by tossing a 45-yard pass to John Cavadine and then carrying the ®all bver for the extra point to give the Hoya plebes a 7-6 win. The dafeat at the hands of the Blue and Gray frosh was the only loss on the record of Wyoming Seminary last year. Nolan also attended St. Mary’s High School at Wilkes-Barre, Pa. While there he captained the foot ball team in his senior year. Under the tutelage of Joe McGinley at St. Mary’s, Nolan became one of the best forward pass- ers in the Wilkes-Barre district. Hage erty hasn't changed Bob's style of passing. He believes that & change would alter his effectiveness. If the linemen Saturday give Nolan protection the customers are assured | of seeing a real serial circus with Nolan in the center ring. Colgate, With Stiff Schedule, Qut to Prove Genuine Class By the Associated Press. 'EW YORK, October 10.—There has been a strong suspicion for several years that Andy Kers has what it takes to win at Colgate. The Red Raiders are out to| prove it with one of the most difficult | schedules in his six years there. ‘The Raiders have lost only five games since Kerr began coaching them, but except for an occasional game,! such as the triumph over Tulane last year, their victories have been over-| looked, largely because of the caliber of the opposition.

Having successfully passed their pre- liminary tests with victories over Niagara, Amherst and St. Lawrence, the Raiders will travel Saturday into Big Ten territory for a game with the strong University of Iowa at Iowa City, Then come Lafayette, Holy Cross, Tu- lane, Syracuse, Rutgers and Brown. With a fine line in front of a veteran backfield, Kerr has worked up more of the variations of lateral passing that left Colgate’s opponents, as well as spectators, bewildered last year. George (Quo) Vadas, first-string quarterback, will not be in Saturday's game due to injuries received in the season’s opener. Kerr will have lke | Kern, Don Irwin and Dick Offenhamer to carry out his assignments with the help of Albie Burke, a sophomore, at quarter. ‘The Raiders, 33 strong, will entrain tonight and will stop over at Coe Col- lege, Cedar Rapids, for a workout Pri- day before moving into Towa City.
