L Baltimore Stadium Thursday

TWO determined teams will meet
when Maryland takes on
Washington and Lee in the
L Baltimore Stadium Thursday
for the first meeting of these elevens
IN the Monumental City.
Maryland, after losing tough games
to v. M. 1. and Georgetown, is deter
mined to make the Generals suffer,
while the latter, with an even break in
eight games this, year, is eager to fin
ish on the right side of the ledger.
Then, too. there still is another
angle that makes both anxious for a
victory. 1t will be their twelfth meet
ing as Southern Conference rivals,
with each having won five of the past
games with last years clash at College
Park a scoreless affair.
Dunlap Calls Signals.
WASHINGTON AND LEE has big,
w heavy line which is mainly vet
eran and fine bac.lfield quartet for
which Sophomore Don Dunlap, former
Central High gridder, calls the signals.

who has scored 43 points this year;
Preston Moore, another veteran and
ple-threater, and Bobby Long. rookie
blocking back, complete the first four.
Dunlap is the teams best passer.
The teams appear SO well matched
that Bill Guckeyson may prove the
balance of power. Outside of him,
the Generals are just as well equip
ped for ball toting as the Terps and
are better fixed with line reserves, as
have been all of Maryland's foes this
year

High Bear Kicks
Upset Stanford
BY JAMES PHELAN,
Washington Coach.

CEATTLE, Wash, November "a.
In seeking a solution to Cali
fornia's victory over Stanford last
Saturday one must consider the
element of kicking. because Cali
fornia's well-placed, high punts
stopped Coffi on his return
California won. not because of
a superior offense. but because of
close checking defense, and per-
haps the Stanford scouts had over
looked the fact that Chapman was
always dangerous offensive
threat and passes should not be
thrown in his territory.

Mann Knew His Scope.

COLDIE AHEARN, who does the
matchmaking now. helped to set
the pattern he belatedly Is copying
with his newly announced policy Of
featuring club fighters. Ten years
ago Ahearn fought Al Foreman (for
60-odd seconds. anyway and had
trouble getting into the Kenilworth
arena for the people who wanted to
lay 1t on the line Heinie Miller, then
a matchmaker, cleverly built up sec
ond-rate fighters and equally as clev-
erly knocked them down as a sacri-
fee to a new sensation when the old
was on the wane.
frankie Mann never won any
medals for his matchmaking,
but he knew his limited scope,
and wherever he went-Fort
Myer, Washington Barracks and
Portner's-he entered the fig
ures on his ledger in black ink.

The Hard-Luck Team.

r AN into Red Blaik. Harry Eliinger.
Joe Donchess and Andy Gustaf-
son Of the Dartmouth coaching staff.
This Dartmouth team" said Blaik,
sis one of the best I've seen-and the
most unlucky. Ray is the best center
I've seen in years. The team was
well-balanced. But so was the tough
luck they ran against"
This happens to be true. Dart
mouth outplayed Holy Cross, came
within an inch of scoring and then
lost on a long run interception near
the close-came within a yard Of
losing to Yale. after outplaying Eli,
on a pass penalty, and then getting
tie with Princeton on the same
penalty, which Dartmouth at least
figures was undeserved.
At any rate. Red Blaik and staff
gave Dartmouth one of her best all
season teams in stormy Autumn.

About Santa Clara.

WHAT about this Santa Clara
w team?" I asked a scout from
the Far West.
"a good, strong, well balanced
team" he said. "It is team of even
strength in all departments, with
Nello FalaSchi, at quarter, one of the
best on the Coast. He is probably the
best blocking back in the country. Her
schedule hasn't been any too tough,
but Santa Clara Is still hard team
for anybody to beat, with fine defen-
sive strength and backfleld smart
ness"
What about Washington and Wash
ington State this week?" we asked.
"A tough game for Washington,
which is slightly the better team. Phe-
Ian has several stars in Starcevich at
guard, Haines and Cain, but Washing
ton State has Ed Goddard, also a star,
and Washington State is ready to
shoot all she has for that Rose Bowl
assignment. Or chance for 1t, any
way"

THE Navy, of course. is banking
heavily on this son of a Navy
captain as an offset to the Army's
flash, Monk Meyer, son Of colonel Of
that service. Both will be specially
watched by the opposing teams.
The Navy, under Tom Hamilton and
his aides, also is working on the
spread" plays, which were feature
last year. with team trained spe-
cially in these formations. The unex-
pected return of Tom Edwards and Bill
Mason from the hospital list has ia
cilitated work along these lines, as
they were the principal backs on the
spread" team last year. There is no
special team for these plays this year,
however, all the players being drilled

regularity this season and in the Notre
Dame game scored all the points by
kicking a field goal In practice Sat-
urday, Ingram scored twice in this way
against B" squad, both from subStan-
tial distances.
Ingram'S running effectiveness is
shown by the fact that he has gained a
total of 1,276 yards this year, running
from scrimmage and on runbacks. He
carried the ball 112 times, making an
average gain of l1.3 yards. This total,
it is believed, established an an-time
Navy record. Also, Ingram is prac-
tically fumbleless.

Kaufman in the chief passing
role, beat Arkansas and Wake Forest
with aerials in two of its major VIC

THIRTY-ONE months old today,

customers last night to pack Turner's
Arena and register the first profit of
the indoor season. Shades of Gal
lagher VS.. Lamar &. . and Frankie De
Angelo VS.. Billy Landers.
Local boxing has been something
like the case of Peter Pan. 1t has never
grown up much, probably because its
promoters and matchmakers never
have grown. On a niggardly scale, es-
pecially indoors they have tried to go
big time" without possessing the
requisites and the business has curdled.
Now boxing in this bailiwick
seems to be back In q class as
humble as Its cradles at Kenil-
worth and Fort Washington and
Portner's Arena.
Actually there was nothing startling
in Williams and Scott packing a little
local arena, for the whole history Of
boxing in this neck of the woods is re-
plete with similar instances of no
bodies outdrawing the somebodies of
the racket. It was the rule rather than
the exception, and no particular felici-
tation Of anybody connected with the
matchmaking is in order. That fight

side, practically had to make money.

Warner Brothers State theater begins its 1886 Fall Greater Movie Season today! Today's show is just & forerunner of the marvellous hits already booked to play this popular theater including "The General Died at Dawn" with Gary Cooper and Madeleine Carroll, Anthony Ad- verse" with Fredric March, Swing Time" with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers also My Man Godfrey" with William Powell and Carole Lonl- bard.
 King Vidor (who made "The Big Parade') has skillfully worked ac- tion, drama, romance and comedy together to make "The Texas Rang CTS" a magnificent screen achieve ment and logical choice to start the States Fall Greater Movie Sea- son today.
 Presented by cast headed by Fred MacMurray and the wise cracking Jack Oakie, the film lifts 8 page from the history of the two- gun organization which made Texas safe for pioneers, and combines 1t with love story unusual in its charm.
 Jean Parker, young satr who cap- tured the movie public with her work in Little Women" and "Se- quoia," holds the feminine lead role as the daughter of commander of the Ranger unit which MacMurray and Oakie join. Though almost in- cidental to the sweeping theme of the plot, her romance with Mac Murray is presented movingly and sincerely.
 The plot of '"The Texas Rangers" revolves about the adventures Of MacMurray and Oakie after they have joined the early Texas organ ization of peace officers and are thrown into opposition with their friend of former outlaw days, Nolan.
 Battles of the Rangers in carrying out their oath to drive out hos tile Indians, stop feuds, destroy cat- tie and horse thieves, gangs of stage and train robbers, kill or capture murderers, and make Texas a req sonably safe place in which to live" ares hown in the course Of the

 The entertainment value becomes Parade of Ziegfeld, for the cast also features such world famous en- tertainers as Fanny Brice, the rlii- ing American comedienne; Harriet Hoctor, whom Ziegfeld acclaimed the Pavlowa of America; and Ray Rubber Legs" Bolger, Broadway dancing star.
 The musical numbers are possibly the most dazzling ever conceived either for stage or screen. The You" number, featuring the Glori- fled Dancing Girls on the Ziegfeld Roof; the Honeymoon Cottage" number, again featuring the Glori- fled girls; the Pretty Girl is Like a Melody" number, featuring Vir- ginia Bruce and parade of the most gorgeous Adrian costumes ever designed; and the Finale, a breath taking panorama of music, song. beauty and spectacular stage set- tings.
 "The Great Ziegfeld" is the "Show of Shows" and is the first of many hits to be presented during the new Poli movie season of 1936-37.
 The plot of '"The> Great ziegfeld" written by w. Mcclure, is suggested by the glamorous and colorful career of Ziegfeld himself. Depicting his life from the time when young and ambitious he began his career by ex- hibiting Sandow, "The Strongest Man in the World" at the Chicago Worlds Fair and develops the va rious enterprises by which he made his musicals the most discussed shows in the country and tells of the ups and downs in the theater which he experiences during the lat ter part of his career, and ends with his death by which he left behind a name never to be forgotten in the annals of the American theater.
