With little to lose and plenty Of
prestige to be gained, George Wash

beating powerful, undefeated Will

Against one of the South's stronger
power clubs G. w. isn't expected to
try to gain yardage through the

outweighed by the veteran William

chiefly on passing as a medium of
gaining ground.
Tied by Harvard after beating

G. w. expected to arrive here

planning to shuttle his lineup after
successive losses to The Citadel and
Furman. with Joe Bernot likely to
replace Jim Graham at fullback and
Jim Rausch or Alex Cronis taking
over Paul Weber's wingback spot.
Baker who has warned his club
it must play so minutes of tough
football even to hold the Indians to
respectable score, has indicated
he will start seven sophomores.

letter that Harvard's Dick Har-

Can't quote it all. but here are a

any padding at all, but that
doesn't stop the soldiers. In
iuries are nil. No one can ever
tell me the American youth is
not as tough as anything that

Maryland has made a radical
change in its football lineup for
the State duel with Western Mary
land in the Baltimore Stadium to-
morrow, where action starts at 2:30.
Paul Flick, big center, has been
sent to right tackle, and Bill Byrd,
son Of Prexy H. c. Byrd, has been
elevated from reserve guard to the
snapper-back job. He had played
center earlier in the season.
This means that Luther Conrad,
who has been playing right tackle,
will 60 back to his regular right
guard berth. and that George Jar
moska, filling in there, will be elm
mated as a starter.
Makes Line Much Heavier.
These changes add considerable
weight to the Maryland line, as
Byrd scales 203 against Jarmoska's S
176. Conrad weighs close to 200,
and Flick. who began the season
at 203, has gained IL pounds.
1t is likely that Flick may play
center and Byrd guard on defense,
as the former is used to backing up
the line.
Maryland, having drilled long and
hard this week, expects to bound
back from the v. M. I. licking and
whip its old rival

Title Struggle Tied
BY SID FEDER,
Associated Press Sports Writer.


NEW YORK, Oct. 23.-The g.
Sear-old racing scramble, a much
muddled mixup between Shut Out
and Alsab is going to remain a turf
omelet for the remainder of the
year.
The plans for Equipoise's best son
and the AL SABBATH colt to settle
the championship between them were
hattened today when 1t was learned
that Shut Out came sore in his
latest race. and would be retired
until 1943.
Thus the 3-year-old throne for
1912 will have to be a two-seater.

told the Turf Committee of America
that the slim-legged Shut Out
wouldn't be on hand for the big
mile heat of Belmont's war-relief
week Of champions, November to II
In that mile and a quarter for a
$4,000 purse he was slated to
tangle with Alsab and Whirlaway.
He'll probably be back next spring
to go right on proving not only that
he's Equipoise's best baby, but also
that his father was a far better
sire OF horsef1esh than the experts
OF few years ago gave him credit
for being.
AS 2-year-old Shut Out was only
fair, winning in the neighborhood
OF $1,000, but was buried deep in
the shadow of Devil Diver, a big,
handsome juvenile who was the
varsity" of the Whitney string.
In fact. he was rated so much of a
second fiddle that Eddie Arcaro,
the stables contract rider. gave him
to Wayne Wright to pilot in the
Derby. And, while Arcaro finished
far back with the Diver, Shut Out
ran off with the necklace of roses.
Shut Out didn't like the Pimlico
track week later and finished fifth
behind Alsab in the Preakness.
Big Winner This Year.
But he came back to pick up
second jewel of the triple crown by
capturing the Belmont from Alsab,
who was an ailing horse at the time.
While Alsab went back to Chicago
Tor nursing, Shut Out waltzed along
to win the Arlington Classic and
the Travers Stakes and boost his
years earnings close to the quarter
million mark. s1-,
Then Alsab started his comeback.
and the first time he and Shut Out
met again was in the Gallant Fox.
Although neither grabbed the big
money. Alsab looked much the bet
ter OF the two. However, just as the
SABBATH colt was running with an
injury in the Belmont, Shut Out
apparently was off form in the Gal
liant Fox. So it's still a case of
