Barnes Does Fine Job
y
For Old Liners as
Reserve Pilot -,
Werner and Rigby Shine
As Boil Carriers in
Long Scrimmoee

Indications that George Barnes.
an All-high product at Western, will
be an adequate replacement for
Tommy Mont when and if the
Maryland quarterback requires rest
were evident yesterday as the Old
Liners staged a lengthy scrimmage
at College Park.
In one of Coach Clark Shaugh-
nessys rare heavy scrimmage ses-
sions the Old Liners conducted
themselves nobly in preparation
for their opening game Saturday
against the University Of Con-
necticut at College Park. 81,
Il don't see any reason to change
the personnel of our first team"
Shaughnessy informed the squad
in blackboard drill before the
workout You might give me sey-
eral reasons after our first game
but right now we'll stand pat the
way we've been working"
Werner Is Impressive.
Shaughnessy saw nothing to dis
turb his confidence in that first
team, but in the labor of Barnes
and 164-pound Hubble Werner, a
sophmore, he saw specimens who
are geared for starting assignments
should members of his first string
backfield relax.
After Mont twice had directed
the team 80 yards to touchdowns
against the third stringers, reach
ing payof dirt with pass to Elmer
Rigby on the first occasion and
| going over the second time on a
| 20-yard run by Barnes, Shaugh-
messy ordered Barnes to take COM
mand at the quaterback post and
George did all right.
Under Barnes direction the first
team moved 40 yards to midfeld.
where a fancy forward Lateral COB
bled up the remaining distance to
the goal. with Rigby again showing
his heels to the blue jerseyed third
| team.
! Mont Is Kept Busy.
Earlier Shaughnessy had indi-
Gated he is expecting Mont to be a
Commute man. He had Tommy
toiling with both the red-jerseyed
first team and the maroon-shirted
second club backfields in signal
drills and Mont was throwing bulls
eye passes exclusively.
With II days of tough toll under
its belt, Maryland appears much
farther advanced at this stage than
at any time in years. The Old
Liners still are in fine physical trim,
with Tackle Reggy Vincent and
Marshall Brandt, second-string end,
currently nursing slight leg in
juries that aren't expected to keep
them out of the opener
Partial credit for the advanced
development of Maryland's squad
in the intricacies of the '"T' system
is distributed by Shaughnessy to
Joe Stydahar, Danny Fortmann and
Charley ORourke of the Chicago
Bears, who helped coach the Old
Liners when the Bears trained at
College Park in preparation for their
game with the Redskins.
Probable Opening Lineup.
The team Shaughnessy doubtless
will send into action against Con-
necticut will find Bob James and
Jack Gilmore at ends; Jack Ditt-
MARI and Vincent, tackles; Eddie
Chovanes and Luther Conrad,
guards; Paul Flick, center; Mont,
quarterback; Jack Mier, left half
back; Rigby, right halfback, and
Jack Wright, fullback.

problems to which the Cavalier
coaching staff is having to give
special attention.
Coach Frank Murray and his

But John Neff was lost by gradu-

has withdrawn to go to medical
school.
Complicating the problem is the
fact that in addition to training
new men to handle the ball in the
backfield the Cavalier coaches also
are having to work on new centers

Team Play Of Pros
BY the Associated Press.

~
BOSTON, Sept. 19.-The Eastern
Army All Stars, which for warmup
took on and beat two other top
fight pro elevens during the week,
were rated tonight an even bet
against the champions of the play
for money circuit-The Chicago
Bears.
The Bears have the advantage of
being together longer and are gen.
orally considered to have greater
repertoire of plays. but the Army
has manpower-and that's what Col.
Robert r. Neyland. the coach, is
counting on tomorrow.
A few of the stars suffered bruises
in the Army's victories a week ago
over the New York Giants. 1910,
and on Wednesday over the Brook
lyn Dodgers, 1877, but the soldiers
lost only one regular. 1t. Bob Fried
lund, right end, is out with a knee
injury.
Luckman Lost to Bears.
But the Bears won't be in the best
of form either, for Sid Luckman,
their No. l quarterback and passer,
has bad shoulder which will keep
him on the sidelines.
Charlie ORourke, 172-pound pass
ing ace who, two years ago, led Bos-
ton College to Sugar Bowl victory
over Col. Neyland's Tennessee team,
will take Luckman's place-and
O'Rourkes presence assures a capac-
ity $1,000 crowd at Fenway Park.
Col. Neyland, who in five weeks
has whipped together an eleven that
he himself calls "unquestionably the
best squad I have ever coached" has
So players and the Army starting
lineup will include no fewer than
eight former professionals.
Three Army stars are former Bears
-Corpl. Al Baisi, first string guard !;
Corpl. Norm Standlee, the 240-pound
fullback, and 1t. Chesley Shesney, a
center.
Army Worries About Cafego.
Chief worry of the Army was the
shape of Corpl George Cafego,
dynamic tailback from Tennessee,
who was battered in the Dodgers
game and hasn't even put on a
uniform since. He has favored a
trick knee since college days, but he's
expected to be ready by game time.
Both teams hope for cool weather.

and Camp Grant attempted a field

ground, being fumbled by the holder.
Outside of this stab, the Warriors,

Their running game failed to carry

The Wisconsin defense, both in the

use their offensive power effectively
when they were in scoring territory.
They worked the ball down to the
7-yard marker in the first period
but lost it when an end-zone pass
was intercepted. The same thing
happened when they arrived at the
l0-yard line in the second period
A field goal was missed in the third
period, and touchdown was lost in
the final period when the Badgers
failed to score after Quarterback
