FOOT BALL SCRIBE
PRAISES MARYLAND

NEW YORK. November 23.-Out OF
the findings of the current foot ball sea-
son the forward pass defense situation
seems to be most important. Season by
season proficiency in throwing and re-
ceiving is increasing so that now it is
not at ali unusual when an eleven COM
pletes more than so per cent of its over
head plays
Defense plotted against running
plays can be very exact. But the
forward pass is ever the elusive element.
No coach ever knows when the cleaning
yellow ball swiftly spiraling into the
arms Of a loose croW-hopper Is going
to break up the ball game.
Technically the pass when 1T Is per-
fectly thrown and perfectly received
cannot be defended.
This University of Maryland team
which defeated Yale couple of weeks
ago is no fly-by-night organization.
Never was. They play students there
and Curley Byrd, the coach. is blessed
annually with pretty much the pick of
the Washington, D. c.. high schools.
Somehow or other the larger institu-
ball stars at the Capital. They have a
prsdilection for the Maryland institution
and they do not have to be urged to go
there.
Speaking of material, West Point looks
with envy upon Highberger, the Car
negie Tech tackle, and Liston who
shines in similar berth at Georgetown.
Both these athletes were in West Point
and were found" in their plebe years.
Blue Howell, the Nebraska backf1eld
star. according to information at West
Point, is married man and the father
of children.
Southern California's attitude toward
post-season games is striking a respon-
sive chord throughout the country in the
breasts of those who like to assign to
foot ball its proper place in the edu-
cational scheme. Under no considera-
ton, says the prospective winner OF the
Pacific Coast Conference in an official
statement. will any invitation to play a
post-season game at Pasadena or any
where else be accepted.

Six People Entombed In Huge
Snow Drift on National Road

A party of six was entombed for a
period of twelve hours beneath a snow
drift estimated at seven feet deep at
point near Keyser's Ridge, on the
National Highway, during the snow
storm on Saturday and after suffering
hardships they finally reached their
destination.
The party was enroute from Wheel
ing, West Va, to Homecoming, Md,
when their automobile became stuck
in a huge drift. Before the occupants
could help themselves a gale drifted
the snow much higher and mucn
tighter around the machine.
Those in the party were Mr.. and
Mrs. James Dunn, Jr., and their little
daughter; James Dunn, Sr., aged 81;
Mrs. Anna Weaver, all of Wheeling,
but formerly of Homecoming, and Mrs.
Martha Findley, of Cumberland.
In the absence of nourishment, the
little baby of the party was fed on ice
water, the snow being melted in the
bottle by those in the car rubbing the
bottle between their hands. They ar
rived in Homecoming on Sunday.

PARALYSIS BEING
 CAREFULLY NOTED
Scientists Attacking Inlantile Ailment From Three AngleS

Washington, March l6 R,-De- termined to find the solution to the baffling problem of infantile par alysis. Surgeon General Hugh s. Cumming has assigned three es- peclally qualified research workers or the public health service to con- tentrate on this task.
 The service has been working on the problem for some years, but the outbreak last fall was the most widespread and virulent since 1916. some progress has been made in developing methods Of treatment, but the germ has detied isolation and the disease remains almost as great a mystery as it ever was
 The new campaign to analyze and overcome this Gread malady, which has doomed thousands 10 lifetime ot deformity and discomfort, will be led by Dr. J. r. Lcake He had extensive experience with the disease in 1916. has studied and treated many cases since then and is re- sardei as exceptionally well quail fled 10 deal with it in both the clinic and the laboratory.
 Dr. Lawrence kolb will attack the problem as Il disease of the nervous system. H. has had special training in the study of nervous and iaental disorders. having been de- tailed to this field o1 investigation for several years.
 
 with a view to developing q serum will he the special task of Dr. W. r. Harrison. He has had long cx- perionce in bacteriological research in the hygenic laboratory and has been identified for some time with the control of anti-toNins and serums by the service.
 By directing the attack from three different scientific angles and coordinatng the work of the spe- c'alists Dr. Cumming hopes to hasten the production Of positiy, knowledge with which 10 combat tn. disease. In the meantime he must be con tent to emphasize the importance of "aftercuro' treatment; the rchabili- tation and retraining Of muscles hlightod by the disease. This should be started. he believes, as soon as the affected parts can be moved without pain.
 Various theories have been ad- vanccd as to the cause of the mala~ dy But until the ultra microscopic germ, which is too small to see through any lenses no win use and passes through all filters tried thus far, is identified, none of them can be accepted. The most convincing evidence as 10 the cause of it's spread points to the adult carrier" theory. IL is alducod, on the basis of this evidence. that adults com- ing. in contact with the Carms carry and spread them through the secrc- tons of the nose and throat with out being conscious of their own in- lection.
 Several methods of treatment have been suggested. These include the us" of serum, but it has failed, in the opinion of public health service authorities. 10 give the re- suits desired.
