1erp Sophs GET Call
In BackfieId Jobs
For First Game
Three on Starting Team,
But Other Set Seems
About as Formidable

Backfield lettermen seem to be
running behind sophs at Maryland
this year, if the lineup selected Tor
Saturdays inaugural with Hampden-
Sydney is a criterion of their status.
One is in the first backfield and
three in the second.
It's good omen for Terp sup
porters, who want to see that 7-6
defeat of last year wiped out with
plenty of interest, and for Coach
Jack Faber, who hopes to have two
operating units to toss into games
without much decrease in power.
Maryland's second backfield may
be fully as potent as the first. 1t
doesn't have a line -plunger OF Jack
Wright's caliber but in all other
things it appears to be equal to the
rival group. Both Mearle Du Vail
and Elmer Rigby can pass and
Bernie Ulman, who does the kicking,
is one of the best on the squad. Jack
Mier rounds out the B group and
he's a runner.
Mier. however has shown enough
recently to warrant stepping in for
relief work whenever Wright needs
rest, which will be rarely If the
redhead keeps going as he has been
in practice. The Terps woefully
lacked a good fullback after Jim
Meade's departure and this year
they have come up with two.
George Barnes, a runner and
kicker: Tom Mont, a triple threaten,
and John Cordyack. a blocker, go
into the first backfield with Wright
and with a little experience this
quartet will be tough to stop. Wright,
a good snap passer, is dual threat
and Barnes has shown evidence OF
developing into a good broken field
runner. Fairly fast and sure on his
feet, he's hard to bring down and is
learning how to drive for those
extra inches that count SO much.

Yonks' OutfieId Without Keller

clouters that the Yankees are, the
Brooklyn outfielders are not entirely
bereft of power. Medwick has hit
18 homers and 40 other extra -basers.
Reiser has 13 homers, II triples and
40 doubles. Walker has been known
to connect in the pinches, too.
If the Cardinals should by some
outside chance sneak into the big

capped by the injuries that have

Bv BURTON HAWKINS.


Baseballs nearest approach to
sure thing-Bob Feller against the
Nats-will be exhibited in the glow
of Griffith Stadium's lamps tonight
and despite Washingtons cellar
status a crowd of $4,000 is expected
to witness Cleveland's speed special
ist in his effort to snatch triumph
No 20.
That goth victory has been an
elusive thing for the Indians ace,
incidentally, for Bob has been
thumped by the Red Sox and
Yankees in his last two starts. The
Mats, however. have been very con-
siderate of Fellers ambition to cap
ture 80 games this season. Four
times in as many meetings they
have succumbed to his smoky offer
inss.
Washington has given Feller
brace of memorable arguments, on
both occasions when Ken Chase un-
raveled some of his infrequent ex-
cellent pitching. That. though. is
about the only distinction the Mats
can claim against Feller, who has
allowed them only one earned run
and but two of any description in
SO innings.
Feller twice has registered shut
outs over the Mats this season, beat
ing Chase, 40, in IL innings and in
his last appearance against them
recording a 60 win. In his first
meeting with Washington this sea-
son Bob beat Chase, 2-1, on three
hits and later whipped Sid Hudson,
Al, yielding four hits.
Cramer BOthers Feller.
The Mats haven't been denting
any fences against Feller, as might
be limited by the fact he has granted
only 18 hits in four games, striking
out 30. Roger Cramer has repre-
sented one-third of the Mats bat
ting attack against Feller, collecting
six hits against him this year.
Feller admits Cramer, who has
hit 1853 against him this season, is
one of the most pesky citizens he
is required to face in his occupa-
ton. Bob is more concerned with
Ted Williams and Taft Wright,
though, because they own the power
Cramer lacks.
Bob has been no artistic aid to
the Mats this season, but financially
he has been a blessing. In his last
appearance here Feller was the
magnet for $4,000 fans and Secre-
tary Edward B. Eynon, jr., of the
Mats predicts $4,000. perhaps more,
will watch him tonight.
