SHU AND KEyDET
LINE MURDEROUS
Former G. W. High Athlete,
Out for Scoring Title, Bags
Three Markers.
BY BILL DISMER, Jr.

BY the largest score and the widest
margin in the 32-year history of their
gridiron rivalry, " M. I. yesterday
annihilated Maryland in the presence
Of 1000 spectators, most Of whose
home coming cheers choked in their
throats
Led by Paul Shu, stocky bit of
dynamite who was readied at AleXan-
dria's George Washington High School
for the life of Brother Rat" the
drive in the first period for a running
start and did not stop until they had
piled up a 47-14 score
Two more touchdoWns rolled across
the Maryland goal in the second and
third periods and only in the last
quarter-when Coach Pooley Hubert
mercifully inserted a second team-did
v. NJ. I. fail to score at least once
in period
The Al points amassed by the
Keydets topped by the previous rec
ord total rolled up by Maryland in
1880. The final 33-point difference
bettered by the former record margin
established in 1906 when v. M. I. won
the first game of the long series by
q 33-5 count.
Shu's Point Total Scars.
Shu, near the individual scoring lead
OF the Southern Conference before the
game started. in all probability is the
undisputed leader this morning. "All''
the l85-pound halfback did was to
score 3 touchdowns and boot five
conversions for a total of % points
for the day-more than the whole
Maryland squad could score.
The game ceased to be contest at
the end of 10 minutes when v. M. L.
started coasting with 21-0 lead. The
Maryland line resembled so much
paper before the hard charging of the
V. M. L. forwards and the few often
slve gestures the Terps made were
nullified by sloppy ball handling in
ability to cling to passes and poor
blocking.
Time and again the Kaydet line,
led by Tackle Dick Strickler, crashed
through Maryland interference to spill
ball carriers before they reached the
line OF scrimmage, and not until the
waning moments of the first half did
Maryland penetrate V. M. I. terri
tory. Then satisfied with a $50
lead the visitors allowed Rip Hewitt
to complete two long passes to Frances
Beamer which carried the Terps to
their 1-yard line. A minute before
the half ended Frank Skotnicki
plunged for a score.
TerpS Score on Reserves.
Not until v. M. I. had tailed what
was to be its last point and had in
serted an entire team of second
stringers did Maryland score again.
Then once more the Terp touchdown
was due to Hewitt. Working from
deep In his own territory, Hewitt twice
in succession found receivers for his
aerials until, with the ball on v. M. rs
30, he shot long one to Beamer, the
former Roosevelt High athlete, who
stepped over for the score.

Maryland's vulnerability to an aerial
attack as they piled up the score.
Climaxing 55-yard sustained march
Shu eluded two Maryland tacklers on
the receiving end of a pass to 60 over
from the 2-yard line for the first
score, and little later Shu took a
pass, feinted out two defensive men
near the goal line and romped over for
the second touchdown.
Line smashes from within the 10
yard line accounted for four of the
winners touchdowns, but probably the
most spectacular bit of the day was
contributed by Shu in the third quar-
ter, when he intercepted one of
Weidinger's passes on his own 40 and
raced so yards through broken field
for his teams 46th point. He also
converted to make it 47-and a per-
feet day-for Shu
