Georgetown should whale the
whey out of Maryland tomorrow at
Griffith Stadium in the eighth and
/ final game for time at least OF
I their So-called modern series, but
don't put the rent money on it.
Actually. it's more of tOsSup,
whether or not you care to believe 1t.
With Joe Gyorgydeak out of the
starting lineup and possibly lost for
the entire day, the Hoyas' running
attack will be curtailed sharply for
the chunky, -Strlding half
back had become a key man in the
backfield and one of the Squadss
most consistent ground-gainers.
And there is a possibility Ben
Bulvin may be unable to start-or
finish. the fray. He also is bothered
by an ailing ankle and if he fails
to get into the game GeorgetoWn's
running attack will be something
less than flashy. You simply can't
extract molarS like these and expect
the Hoyas to maSticate opposition as
tough as Maryland.
But are the Terps so tough? Let
Mush Dubofsky, GeorgetoWns line
coach and an accredited critic,
answer that one.
Praises Maryland's Passers.
Maryland" says he. has the best
team l ever saw TO lose so many
games. It's got plenty of power in
the backfield and the line is fairly
strong. 1t appears to be we'll
coached and has plenty of trick stuff,
and that passing attack-man. oh.
man. I've never seen anything like
it. Why they completed 8 out OF
19 passes against Rutgers with
wet ball in driving rainstorm and
they managed that ball as though
it had handles Id like to see any
team beat that"
So if it comes up rain George
town. with its notoriously weak pass
defense. will be in trouble up over
its neck. But. on the other hand,
rain may give Bill Mclaughlin a
chance to do his stuff. On a field
fetlock deep in mud last week,
Mac ran through the freshmen
for four touchdowns in prac-
tice scrimmage and was Just about
the only varsity man able to navl-
gate in the, heavy going. Funny
thing about him. he can't play we'll
until he's sort of mussed up. even
on dry field.
Tomorrow's game will be decided
by long runs or passes. if it fol-
lows the pattern of its predeces-
sors. South" Sothoron evidently
set the style for the series back
in 1884, when he gathered in Club
by" PARCELS pass deep in Mary
land territory and ran it back Y
yards to the 2-yard mark, from
where the Terps punched it over
for the games lone score after three
tries.
Guckeyson Consistent Star.
Bill Guckeyson, one of Marylands
all-time greats, held the spotlight
the next two years. particularly in
1885, when he romped so yards
for the first touchdown and car
ried back the opening kickoff of the
second half go yards for the clinch-
ing score. The following year he
took a 20-yard pass from Charley
Ellinger and sprinted IS more for
Marylands touchdown. After that
he put a pass squarely in Jim
Mead's hands only to see him
drop it in the end zone. and
Georgetown later blocked a punt
and kicked the extra point to
squeeze out a TO decision-its first
of the series.
The 81 and '38 affairs were
more or less orthodox. although
Maryland's 1872 victory in the former
was somewhat unexpected. But the
series got back into its long -stridins
swing in 80. when Lou Ghecas
sprinted 40-yards for one touchdown
and Julie Koshlap heaved a 27-yard
pass to Mike Kopcik for another.
That was the year Bulvin, then a
sophomore. was kicked on the head
in the last period and drew blank
without giving himself away. He
threw a touchdown pass to Art
Lemke and in the dressing room
after the game casually inquired who
won and what was the visiting teams
name?
