The game Is expected to prove again
that college foot ball is every bit the

your correspondent believes 1t will do
just that. 1t did In the first ALL
Star-Bear game last year and this
Summers batch of collegians certainly
Is superior to the crowd which played
the Bears scoreless tie in 1884.
The present all-star squad packs
more dynamite in its back field than
did the 1894 brigade and Its line will
be Just as hefty and perhaps a bit
more effective. True, the current
collegian squad has no center the
equal of Chuck Bernard, the former
Michigan luminary, at backing up the
line and in last years game the big
Wolverine made the Bears thoroughly
sick and tired with his tackles Of their
ball carriers. But by and large the
collegians have material for q great
line. even with a limited time for

~ to report Labor Day, Jack
4 \ Faber, head coach Of the Uni-'
versity of Maryland football team
sees three problems that must be
solved If the Old Liners are to cope
anyways successfully with their tough
10-game schedule.
Jack says that finding a quarter
back to succeed Norwood Sothoron, g
running guard to fill the shoes Of
John Simpson and producing wing
backs to take the places Of Sothoron,
Earl Widmyer, Dick Nelson and Joe
Crecca presents real task. Now
adays, he points out, you have TO
have quite a few ball toters to stand
the gaff. And Roy Mackert says
amen to Faber's words
Maryland has eight letter winners
among its backfleld talent but there
is scarcity Of wing backs among
them.
All of the line regulars, except
Simpson at left guard, are available,
so that the big task here will be TO
find replacements
Sothoron.
1T WAS noticeable last Fall that the
Old Liners always went better when
Sothoron was calling the signals and
in addition to being a fine general he
was strong in all other lines.
Nelson also was a fine passer and
kicker and his shoes will be hard to
fill, especially from the heaving stand
point. Bill Guckeyson and Buddy
Yaeger still leave the Terps with two
proficient booters.
Frank Dobscn, for 20 years at the
University Of Richmond. who will
come to Maryland as field coach,
should fit admirably into the staff.
However, it may take him quite a
spell to acquaint himself with grid
ders, their traits and capabilities.

DOBSON will come to College Park
- on August 30 to talk things over
with Faber and Mackert.

Last week Rocksie performed across
the road in an inclosure set up for
the annual Rock Crek benefit meet

petition, earned top rating among q
representative field of local hunters.
Yesterday the clever jumper again
went flawlessly for his young WASH

pearances. No other horse on the
grounds could approach such a record.
Newcomer Is Victor.
A SPECIAL innovation established
= for this meet was the open jump
ing championship, won by the Fort
Myer Horse Show teams Clipped
Wings, smoothly handled by Lieut.
Frank Henry. Over some of the
trichest courses ever devised for q
local show, and often under conditions
tough enough to try the patience Of
an equine Job, Clipped Wings hung up
three ribbon winning performances,
one blue, another for a red and a
third for yellow. The closest COM
petitor also came from Fort Myer, the
Army's rtund Sandy, which won the
open jumping and was second in the
final stunt class. Sandy was ridden
by Lieut.. Henri Luebberman, o new
conner to the post.
The contest that decided Clipped
Wings triumph was giddy affair,
requiring the riders to carry an egg
in each hand, with penalties provided
for breaking the eggs or hitting the
barriers. In the jump-off, since none
had cracked q shell during the first
round, it was decided to toss the boys
two eggs for each hand. These in
turn were handled so easily 1t was
apparent the riders in question could
carry basket full of potential chicks
without Matching . single one, SO the
final rating was based on performance
only.

When Coach Jim Pixlee returns

put in many solid licks toward achiev-
ing the condition necessary to meet
such top-notch teams as Alabama,
Rose Bowl champion. and Rice In

already are predicting will head the
national parade this year.
Only few of the players counted
on to furnish the punch in the 1885

Prather. Lefty Johnson, Ed Watts,
Steve Shelton. Ross Marshall and
Andy Horne-have not been able to

team is to be met in the second game
of the season, which fact means train

'Possum Jim" already has plans laid

labor as soon as they report in camp.
Watts Out Of It.
I'D WATTS, whose 240-pound frame
moved about promisingly on the

who can do a fine job at either guard
