SPECTACULAR AIR
BATTLE PROMISED
Old Liners Have the Making
of Another McQuade and
Grove Combination.
BY r. d. THOMAS.

-OR the first time in its foot
- ball history, Maryland Uni
versity, when it meets the
Navy Saturday in Griffith
Stadium, will enter combat with
a big-time team conceded at least
an even chance to win.
At game time the Gold and
Black may rank slight favorite,
perhaps a decided one, among
those who bear in mind that
Maryland will send back the same
lineup, but more seasoned and
probably better co = ordinated,
which outplayed the Navy a year
ago, but lost on a sensational
touchdown.
The Maryland foot ball record Is
dotted with upset victories. Yale a
couple of times, Penn. Rutgers and
Syracuse notably have fallen unexpect-
eddy before the teams of Curly Byrd.

outstanding game of the year and one
that promises to establish a record for
attendance.
A THOUGH 1t has shown little so
IA far in scoring ability, the present
Maryland eleven is judged to be
the strongest since that of 1928. which
beat Penn by 3 to and held the cham

lions screwy.
And just as in the Yale game of
1928, it may be a great forward pass
ing combination that supplies the fire.
works against the Navy. 1t was Jack
McQuade and Johnny Groves who
played toss and catch with the pigskin
to give Maryland two touchdowns in
the Yale encounter, and their equals
may be found in several combinations
now possible.

- Poppleman and Bczey Berger, all
veteran backs, are capable of break

executed pass play or plays and with
any one Of the four on the throwing or

Marylands potential strength in the

The Navy frankly admits 1t fears the
Maryland overhead attack and Head
Coach Rip Miller has drilled the Mid

All of which promises lots of excite

Of confidence permeated the
atmosphere at the New York
University foot ball camp, at
Ohio Field yesterday, following a
lengthy dummy sscrimmage in which
the varsity checked Georgetown plays
as employed by q reserve team. The
session lasted more than two hours.
Realizing the seriousness Of Satur-
days engagement, Coach Chick Meehan
ordered the sham battle yesterday de-
spite the vigorous scrimmage with CO.
lumbia the previous day.
Utilizing Notre Dame plays, similar
to the attack which Coach Tom Mills
has installed at Georgetown. the Violet
reserve team fired one play after an
other at the varsity, only to be rebuffed
with a monotonous regularity.
Time and again, the reserves were
stopped at the line of scrimmage and
often for losses. While on the defense
against aerials, the work of Joe La
Mark, quarterback. and Bob McNa-
mara was outstanding.
Prior to the dummy scrimmage,
Coach Meehan sent the squad through
a passing and punting drill Tanguay
and Bob McNamara figured in the
kicking session. while Hugret and Left
featured the pass workout.
No changes were made in the varsity
lineup which started with Joe La
