On performances this season, there
is little to choose between Maryland
and North Carolina State. The Old
Liners have won three and tied IN
one of their seven engagements. The
Wolfpack has triumphed twice and
played w. a tie once in its seven
starts. Maryland vanQuiShed North

Maryland three weeks before.
Maryland Squad Ready.
Maryland's backfield. which has
been more or less crippled all season,
probably will he at top shape for the
first time Saturday. Only one of the
men Coach Byrd had counted upon
employing this Fall will he out of
action. it now seems. He is Ed Tenney,
whose broken ankle has not healed
sufficiently to permit him to play
and he may be lost for the season.
But Maryland will be able to put on
the field fleet set of wellversed ball
runners behind a line that has eStab-
lshed a reputation for strength.

According to those who have seen
North Carolina State in competition
several times this season, it has just
about the best material for foot ball
to be found at any college in the
South. 1t is blessed with gigantic
line that can move fast and rangy
backs remarkably strong. In attack

team was utterly unable to cope with
the attack North Carolina State SIM
ply marched right through the field
to touchdown, apparently with lit
tie effort. But after crossing the
goal, it seemed to think it had done
al that was required of it, and we

But the Wolfpack probably has a
different attitude toward the game
now. That victory over Virginia Poly
last Saturday indicates the team has
found itself and, being it's first sue
cess since the opening game Of the
year. ought to have renewed the
teams confidence in itself. North
Carolina State will come here expect
ing to overcome the Marylanders,
and the latter likely will find it diff
ficult to check it.
The MarylandNorth Carolina State
engagement will be the main attrac-
ton of gala day at College Park.
The occasion will be Homecoming
day and American Legion day jointly
at the university. Many of the in
stitutionS alumni are expected to be
at hand to see the foot ball game
in the morning between the greshman
teams of Catholic University and
Maryland, the interclass push ball
contest, the big afternoon battle and
to attend the several class reunions
and dinners.
Half of the gate receipts of the
main foot ball game are to go to the
fund necessary for the completion or
the cross being erected near Bladens-
burg as memorial to the World War
dead of Prince Georges County. The
University of Maryland is co-operat-
ing with the Snyder-Farmer Ameri-
can Legion Post of HyattsvIlle in
the matter of the war cross.
Georgetown is out to turn the ia
bles on the Sd Army Corps eleven
this year and very likely will sue
seecd in doing so. That licking hand
ed them by the Soldiers last fall was
not relished by the Hilltoppers. and
they are certain to put a deal of
effort into their play Saturday. Coach
Little has announced his intention of
pitting his regular team against the
Soldiers, and if both aggregations
play to the form revealed in earlier
games, the service outfit will get a
sound trouncing.
Another new team is in the making
at Catholic University. With three
regulars who did so well against
Maryland and Lynchburg probably
out of action for some while, Coach
Gormley is busy reconstructing his
backfield. But he has some good
talent to use and the Red and Bla OK
is expected to be strong enough tC
upset the Emmitsburg team.
