Terps Go Easy
BY LEWIS F. ATCHISON.
The tense, strained look haunting
Georgetown gridmen's grim features
the last couple of weeks was gone
today, removed overnight like
miladys makeup by the simple
method of letting off steam in a
lengthy workout against the fresh
men. And although there always is
the danger of the pendulum swing
ing too far in the opposite direction,
Head Coach Jack Hagerty greeted
the change with sigh of relief, for
the Hoyas had been too tight for
their own good with West Virginia
coming up Saturday.
Against the Mountaineers yester-
day, Georgetown would have mopped
up and cried for more. They went
through the freshmen line like a
snow-plow, with Jim Castiglia, good
naturedly believing like an irate
bull, leading the procession.
Castiglia was all over the field,
blocking and carrying the ball, and
may have earned berth in the
starting lineup, although final de-
cision in the matter has been re-
served until tomorrow.
AL Blozis, Dominick Montanero
and Ed Kowalski, tackles; AL Nc
Nicol and Buckley, halfbacks: Myron
Darmohray, fullback: Lou Falcone,
quarterback; AL Matuza, center, and
AL Lujack and Art Lemke. ends,
distinguished themselves in the fray
and their teammates were at least
up to par. Although they worked
longer than Hagerty planned, all
were unwilling to stop when the
quitting whistle blew.
Hoya hopes were frightened by
the return of Jack Spencer, triple
threat halfback,. who has been on
the sldelines nursing battle wounds.
Spencer saw no action yesterday and
probably will not play Saturday, for
Hagerty is looking ahead to Mary
land and New York University when
the boys services will be more in
demand.
G. w. Works on Attack.
George Washington. spent its
afternoon trying to put a kick in
its offense. Records prove Bill Rein
hart's men have a sound defense.
for only 18 fiIst downs have been
registered against them thus far
this season, but the attack leaves
something to be desired. Reinhart
is trying to we4vesa wkb of decep-
ton around stocky Billy Richardson,
the lone triple-threater in the back
field, and will rely on the Washing
ton boy tomorrow night.
With Banks McFadden in the
lineup, the visitors will flash one
OF the most versatile attacks in the
country against G. w. and it may
have binding effect on the Colo
rnials' defense. The Tigers have
done everything but kick a field
goal this year in a scoring way
and they may try that method
Friday night just for the heck of it.
McFadden ran 80 yards for score
in the Presbyterian game; a lateral,
Chuck Timmons to "Shad" Bryant,
was good for ~ yards and a touch
down against Navy, and a 23-yard
pass from McFadden to Joe Blalock
produced a touchdown against
Tulane. The Carolipians also scored
on a 1-yard line buck against South
Carolina.
Tulsa Primed for Cards.
Tulsa, scheduled to arrive early
tomorrow morning for its game with
Catholic University, may be without
the services of its hard-running
Indian halfback, Roy Buffalo, but
his loss IS small consolation to the
Cardinals. Clinton Gearhard, 1861
pound reserve halfback who hasn't
broken into the lineup this season,
got away for a couple of long runs
IN the final scrimmage before the
teams departure that may land him
a starting role. A sophomore, the
youngsters punting and passing
ability will be in his favor when the
starting lineup is selected, for he
does both well.
The Hurricane is bringing an out
standing fleld-goal kicker along
with it in Charley. johnson, 205-
pound guard, who comes out of the
hne'to try field goals and boot extra
points. If Catholics line does as
well this week as it has in the past,
the fans may see much of johnson
and his educated toe.
Maryland, prepping for Penn State
with one eye on the Georgetown
game next week, confined itself
to lengthy but light workout yes
terday, rehearsing offensive tactics
to be used against the Nittany
Lions.
Mearle DuVall, crack sophomore
passer who has been out with Q
bad leg, is not expected to play.
In his absence Pershing Mon
dorf will assist Joe Murphy In the
passing. Mondorff was unable to
throw last week because of bruised
nerve in his arm, but was tossing
the ball yesterday and Coach Frank
Dobson expects him to be ready
Saturday.
