As fur-coated co-eds shivered from
the unspring-like blasts, bare-!egse6
athletes of two University of Mary
land teams presented their school witt,
pair of victories yesterday in College
Parks first double header of the sea
son.
After the Old Line track team had
made v. NJ. l. its third successive
Southern Conference victim by a
74l2-51l2 margin. Maryland's lacrosse
team hung up its 10Th collegiate VIC
tory in row by soundly trouncing
Penn State, I1-4
Less than 1000 spectators sat in on
the cold proceedings, made chillier
by the sight of semi-cad athletes
who could have been running As much
to keep warm as for dear old alma
mater.
Readley Shows Speed.
Three records OF, Maryland-V. NJ. l.
meets we're broken by representatives
Of the former. Coleman Headley not
only accounted for one of them, but
tied his own all-time stadium mark
for the $50 which he set little more
than fortnight ago. Headley again
ran the half-mile in 1863, the fastest
1t ever has been run at College Park.
In setting another meet record, Ma
eon Chronlster came within nearly
two seconds of equaling another of
the stadium's all-time marks in the
mile run. which he raced in 4:24
Ed Mi.leT'S meet record breaking
jump Of 5 feet 10, however, was more
than inches short of equaling his
own record height
1t remained for another pair,
Frank Cronin Of Maryland and Al
Herring of V. NJ. / to emerge as the
days individual h!gh-polnt scorers.
Winning two flrSts and a second, each
scored total of l3 points Herring
was only able to tie Crorin, however,
by a thrilling victory in the 220, in
which he beat the Maryland fash by
an eyelast in what nearly was dead
heat. II was the closest race of the
day.
Headley Runs Easily
V. M. is Floyd passed Headley on
the first turn of the $50 and led him
by three yards at the end of the first
lap. but the Terps runner overlook
him at almost the identical spot on
the second lap and gradually increased
his pace. At the end it was Headley S
teammate. Miller, and not Floyd who
came in second-30 yards behind the
winner.
Frank Kehoe was nearly a minute
behind the record in the 2-mile run,
but at that was within so yards of
tapping Sigmund Gerber. Gerber
stuck in there. though. to bring Mary
land another point with his third
place finish
The Virginia cadets slightly OUT
scored the Terps in the field, 28l2-
25i2. but the hosts nearly doubled
their opponents points in the run
ming events. Winning six of the eight
races, Maryland compiled IS points
to v. M. is 25 and clinched the
meet before the last three events had
been run,
Nittany Lions Snappy.
From Rip Hewitt's goal in the first
two minutes of play it was only a
question of the margin by which
Maryland would whip Penn State in
the lacrosse game. The Nittany Lions
presented big team. rough and ready,
but it was like letting a bull loose
IN a china closet. Only this time the
bull was Lion and the china closet
was field intended for lacrosse
The visitors passing was not so
good and MARYLAND was quick 70 take
advantage of funbles, and more than
one of its goalward sallies was started
by recovery or interception OF an
enemy miscue. Hewitt and George
Watson shared scoring honors for
Maryland, each tally!ng three times,
with Bob Nelson accounting for two
and Parker Lindsay. Bill Cole ard
Bill Bond for one each.
Recognizing the superiority OF his
squad, Coach Jack Faber was gen.
erous with reserves and two full teams
saw action before the game ended.
Maryland took 4-2 lead in the first
quarter and added two more before
the half ended
Bond scored the first goal CT the
second half within five minutes OF
the resumption of play, taking the
ball from center and running it down
f1eld for the point.
Penn State did not score again
until the score was LIP. Its third
point just escaped Goalie Haskin
Deeley, and its last came when Mary
lands goal was unprotected, Deeley
not having returned from carrying
out to midfeld ball which had gone
past his goal line.
