COMMUTE MEN
Albrano and Brown are 60-min.
ute men for the TerrapinS. They
have played practically every min
ute of every game, and unless
something unforeseen happens at
Griffith Stadium on Saturday
they will be in there from start to
finish.
Stralka and Joe Frank are the
starting tackles of Georgetown
and a right capable pair they are
Behind them are Robertson and
DAILY, who have played good sound
football throughout the year.
The swing and slash of Mary
lands attack will place pressure
on the Georgetown tackles, who
will have to protect the zones to
the inside and outside against the
cut-backs and deep reverses that
mark the DobSon style Of often
Sive.
The Georgetown attack will put
direct pressure on the Terp work
horses" There is straight away
power on the short tackle slant
one of footballs basic plays. Lack
of extreme speed may ease the
pressure on the outside zones, but
Joe Mellendick can fly when he
gets the leather under his arm
His threat to the outside is double
edged. He may run, and he may
suddenly stop and shoot a pass
He throws the ball through a
barrel hoop.
VARIATION OF SINGLE WING
Jack Hagerty, coach Of the
Hoyas, uses an attack that EN-
bodies some of the salients Of
several so called systems. Hager
ty'S teams run off a variation o1
the single wing, and every position
along the. line is threatened.
Maryland will use the single
wing and short punt. For quick
kicks the Terrapins have jim
Meade and Charley Weidinger
Meade kept the ball rolling out oi
bounds against Virginia and Vlr
ginia Military Academy. In fact
Meade's punting has been out
standing throughout the season.
Progressing with the general
theme of tackle and tackle play
there will be some fine line work
on Saturday in Palmer Stadium
when Navy and Princeton meet IN
their annual battle. Charley Toll
stood out in the rain-drenched bat
tie against Yale last Saturday, but
could not stop the Blue juggernaul
who was Capt. Clint Frank. Toll
is greater perhaps this year when
Princeton fortunes are at an eon
than he was when the Tiger ruled
the conquered East.
Perhaps Toll will have greater
fortune against the Slashes Of
Bill Ingram and Lem Cooke than
he did against Frank with Dave
Colwell and Al Hessberg blocking

POWER AND SPEED
Navy's guardians Of the gate
way to the field, HySong anc
Bergner, are just about as gooc
as they come. They have power
and speed. Frank Lynch, the big
tackle who speared a forward
pass at a critical time in the Army
game last year. is another tackle
in Blue and Gold who will bear q
lot Of watching.
Harvard and Yale come down tc
their battle of the gridiron, find
ing the football fans more atten
tive to their clash than for Severa
years. Not since 1881, when thu
dynamic little Albie Booth toec
over a field goal to win for Yal'
by a score of 3 to 0, have Yale anC
Harvard played to a capacit!
crowd.
But this year Harvard men whit
claim prophetic vision say that th'
Crimson will top the Blue, Gin
Frank or no Clint Frank. Capt
Russ Allen will not be in the game
according to the best advices from
Cambridge. But Vernon Struck
the smashing fullback who mean
so much to the Crimson attacl
will be on hand. Chief Boston i
ready, and so is Torbert Macdon
