Reds Are Launching Violent Counterattacks
Army, Navy Have 10
 Check Bars, Stripes,
 Leaves at One Club
BY JACK sTINNETT

WASHlNGION, Aug. zz The Capital in Wartime:
 All of the camps and induction centers have their officers clubs, their non-com clubs, and their recreation centers that are the privates' private domain, but as meeting place for officers and men in the ranks, the National Press Club here is rapidly developing unique niche.
 It's nothing at all to see a lieu tenant-colonel and private el- bow to elbow at the Press Club bar; or a gob and commander, sit- ting side by side at one of the luncheons where a cabinet mem Der or war production official is speaking.
 At one of the social functions, a captain, feeling a touch on his arm and hearing a May I break, please?" may turn to face a corpor- al with a fresh pair of stripes-and the answer is never anything but, Certainly"
 The reason for this military de- mocracy is two-fold. At last count, the National Press Club roster listed 73 men in the armed forces and they range from privates not yet out of induction centers to the Commander-in-Ch Chief Of the Army and Navy himself. I don't know of any case yet where a former humble employe is the superior of his former boss, but 1t could we'll happen.
 Some correspondents serving without benefit of bars outrank some of the Army, Navy and Ma rine officers in length of service as Washington. newspaper men.
 Another reason is that a good many civilian newsmen here have formed the habit of dragging sol diers or sailors on leave up to the club for a few beers or steak dinner. The effect would be ruin ous if the officers went high hat at the approach of man from the ranks.
 Over the 18th floor portal might we'll be placed for the duration, the legend Abandon the salute all ye who enter here-and check your bars, stripes, leaves and stars at the door"
 The other afternoon, young trooper with fuzz on his cheeks but hair on his chest, was holding forth on the different sen- sations between his first and fifth jumps. One of his most attentive listeners was a colonel in the field

and beWildered the future naval
officers by the simple stratagem of
holding the ball aloft, taking pass
after pass and then running around
his ends.
He set up two scoring opportuni-
ties for the Tigers and Fullback
George FRANKIE capitalized on one
of them by crashing through center
l yard for touchdown on the first
play of the second period, and Bob
Sandbach made the other good with
a 15-yard placement field goal in
the last two minutes of the game.
The game, 33d in the series and
an orphan of the war moved here
from Palmer Stadium, Princeton,
because of transportation restraints,
opened with the Middies making a
drive into Tiger territory and show
ing every evidence that they were in
command of the land as well as the
sea.
Navy Is Stopped Early.
Although beaten 80 by William
and Mary in their opener, the Mid
shipmen had walloped Virginia last
week and were favored over the un-
steady Tigers, but as soon as Prince
ton stopped Navys thrust on the
Tigers "a, the complexion of the
contest changed.
Perina intercepted a pass by Cor
don Studer in the end zone and
the Tigers took the ball on their
own 20. Then Perina galloped out
OF bounds on his 35, passed to end
Bill Gallagher for another first down
in midfeld and kept banging away
at both tackles and ends right down
the field. Occasionally FRANKIE would
carry over guard for change of
pace until the Tigers reached the
Navy's l.
In going 70 yards, the Tigers made
six first downs and never were
slowed till back in motion penalty
set them back to the Navy 6 just
as they were on the verge OF scor-
ing. However, FRANKIE brought the
ball back to the l as the period
ended and on the first play of the
next chapter he lunged across. The
clock showed 80 seconds in the
second period.
Sandbach Seals Victory.
Sandbach placekicked the extra
point and the two teams settled
1own for tight fitting struggle till
he clock was running out of min
lates in the final period.

BALTIMORE, Md, Oct. TO-
Maryland slept through the entire
first half of its game with Rutgers
at the Municipal Stadium but awoke
with start in the third period and
punched over three rapid touch
downs to rout the Scarlet, 27-13, and
capture the seventh and rubber
game of their series.
A shirt-sleeved throng of $4,000
startled fans saw Harold Connors
OF Rutgers tumble the opening kick
of on his 3-yard line, scoop it up
on the 8 and race 81 yards for a
touchdown to get the afternoon off
to rousing beginning. That blow
seemed to stun the Old Liners and
they definitely were no threat
throughout the remainder of the
half.
But Clark Shaughnessy had a few
words with the boys between halves
and whatever he said evidently
scared their pride for Maryland was
different and much improved
football team in the last two pc
RODS. And the manner in which
1t handled itself clearly indicated
Rutgers would be severely dealt
with.
The statistics tell the story more
convincingly than words. Marv-
land rolled up 221 yards from scrim-
mage to Rutgers So, gained 14O
yards on passes to the foes 40 and
chalked up 13 first downs to S.
Virtually all of the damage oc-
Cured in the second half, for the
Old Liners left the field at inter-
mission with the scant ADVANTAGE
OF four first downs to two and Rut-
gers was playing a bangup de-
fenslve game and ciinging to its
precious TO margin for dear life.
Rutgers Marches 65 Yards.
Rutgers second score came in
the waning minutes of play against
a mixture of second and third string
opposition and was of no conse- |
que11ce, other than to give the New
Jersey eleven more respectable
count for the afternoon. It marched
bo yards on Well-selected assort-
ment OF running and passing plays
for the tally with Bella Rieger piang-
ing over from the 2-yard marx.

and locked up the ball game with
four richly earned scores.
Mont appeared nothing like an
al-America candidate in the first
half, when most of his passes went
awry and his field generalship was
questionable, but his direction in
the second half was above reproach
and his passes clicked.
Wright touched off Maryland's
first drive to pay dirt with scin-
tillating 60-yard gallop to Rutgers
%, where Connors brought him
down from behind. All told, he ac-
counted for 70 of the 50 yards,
cllmaxing the push with an 11-yard
gallop through tackle after. taking
short lateral from Mont.
Mier Tears Scarlet Line.
Mont's throw to Elmer Rigby, who
stepped over from the 2-yard stripe,
ended a 62-yard parade through the
Scarlet for the second score, a drive
in which Jack Mier's short and
spirited dashes through the line
were prominent. Mont's placement
for the extra point this time was
good.
The Old Line cheering section
hardly had caught its wind from the
last long "l-o-c-o-m-o-t-i-v-e" for
the team before the College Parkers
were on the march for their third
and decisive marker.
This was comparatively short
walk OF only 81 yards and Rigby
made 1t seem even shorter by taking
the ball the last 81 with an exhibit
ton OF long-legged hoofing that left
Rutgers secondary eating his dust.

CHARLESTON. S. c., Oct. TO-
A slim strip of South Carolina soil,
an important piece of ground /
foot from The Citadel's goal, blotted
George Washington's team out of
the ranks of undefeated, united and
unscored on here today as the Bull
dogs defeated the Colonials. 14-2.
The score wasn't indicative of the
action, for on four occasions with
the Citadel owning a 7-2 lead, G. w.
swept within the Cadets 12-yard
line and that last time was a heart
breaker. Late in the fourth period
the Colonials travelled to within -
inches of pay dirt, where the drive
collapsed.
When that march failed G. w,
desperately took to the air deep in
It's territory and an interception
paved the route to The Citaders
second score.
Husky Joe Bernot, 190-pound full
PACK, gave the limit of his endur-
ance in an effort to put G.. w. across
the Bulldog goal. Twelve straight
times he carried the ball in the
Colonials' biggest threat, moving
from The Citadels 43 to inside the
l on short stabs through tackle and
guard, but No. II try was unluckv
His plunge into right tackle netted
yard but lacked that vital 12
inches and The Citadel took over
and punted out of danger.
Miss Three Other Times.
On three other occasions the
Colonials also were frustrated. Twice
IN the second period G. w. advanced
deep into the Citadel,s geographv
moving to the 2 and 6, and early
IN the third period it drove to the
II. but that fourth-quarter drive that
tailed was the item that prevented
G. w. from walking off with an 80
or 90 victory.
Handy Andy Victor, a 178-pound

gin but seven breaks, nearly ALL

finally ran out in the final period
Georgetown managed to hold on for =
lts third win as against no defeat.
Surprised at the outset by the
hard-running Jasper backs. par
tlcularly Frank Kiesecker, the Hoyas
played sloppy football in the OPEN
ing period and at times in the
second, but they managed to hold
of the New Workers until the
final quarter, when the invader
threatened to come from behind. .
Two fumbles had hurt Manhattan
early in the first period, Georgetown
recovering both. These gave theS
Hoyas chance to recover. Then,
in the second quarter, the Hoyas
turned another pair of breaks into o
offensive weapons -
Morelli Blocks Quick Kick.
Back on their 81, the Jaspers tried
a quick-kick with Kiesecker back. r
Sophomore John Morelli, a guard,
blocked it and the bounding yellow
oval finally was claimed by G. US
Bill Mclaughlin on the Jaspers' 26.
Twice Georgetown tried to pass
but without success. Mclaughlin
ventured around end but was
stopped. Finally fourth-down aer-
ial from Frank Dornfeld to Johnny
Barrett clicked but as the receiver

Again there was mad scramble and
again a Georgetowner Right End

on the 5-yard line.
This was too good a chance to
miss. On the third play, Barrett
plunged over but Whitley Erickson
missed the extra point
Fortune still smiled on the Hoyas
as the third period opened. Nc
Laughlin fumbled the kickoff but
Johnny Agnew recovered for gain,
no less, on the 40. Then, when his
team was held, Dornfeld punted and
Earl Lambert, Jasper halfback,
fumbled as he was hit. AgneW re-
covered this one, too, and it was
Georgetown's ball on the enemy %.
Erickson Kicks Field Goal.
The Hoyas pounded to the II but
that's as far as they could go. Here
Coach Jack Hagerty dispatched
Erickson to kick and. with Dornfeld
holding on the II, he booted squarely
the posts to make it 90.
There were no more breaks after
this one and the Hoyas had a real
fight on their hands. Manhattan
marched SO yards to begin tossing
passes into Georgetown's end zone.
In the fourth quarter the Hoyas
were pushed back to their own 10.
