DURHAM, N. c., Nov. IA gath
ering Of less than 1000 persons saw
Duke University's Blue Devils, play
ing perhaps their best game Of the
season, score In every period here
today to run roughshod over Mary
lands Old Liners, 42-0.
It took Duke only three minutes
to chalk up its initial score. Gordon
Carver, Duke wingback, intercepted
a pass by Tommy Mont intended for
End Gilmore and raced 80 yards to
the Maryland 10. Moffat Storer then
replaced Carver and on a reverse
ran the remaining distance to the
Maryland goal. CAN'T converted the
point.
A tumble by Maryland's Jack
Wright on his own % gave Duke
possession of the ball as Buddy
Luper recovered. Fullback Tom
Davis piled through the Terp's line
to the where he crashed through
for Dukes second tally. CAN'T con-
verted.
Halfback Bobby Rute entered the
game for Luper and after taking
Maryland kick when the Terps
failed to gain, he paired with Full
back Jim Wolfe, replacement for
Davis, to put the ball on Maryland's
1-yard line. Rute made the touch
down through tackle and CAN'T
converted to give Duke 21-0 lead.
Mont Finds Range.
Maryland made its bid after inter-
mission as the passing arm OF Mont
found the range to James for two
completions. But Dukes forward
wall stiffened and the Old Liners
were forced to kick.
Duke advanced to their own 48
on two nice runs by Halfback Buddy
Luper On the next play Fullback
Tom Davis faxed the ball to Luper
and ran through the center OF the
Terp line for So yards and another
Duke score CAN'T again converted
and the Blue Devils held a $50
margin.
Shaughnessey's eleven hit its
stride late in the period as Joe
Hoopengarder entered the game at
quarterback for Mont, who was in
jured on the kickoff. Hoopengard-
ner Immediately took to the air and
completed two passes to End Jack
Gilmore to move the ball to the
Blue Devils 19-yard line. The hard
charging Blue Devils line dug in
and stopped the Maryland threat,
however. and Duke took possession
on its own 49,
Duke Marches Again.
Once again the Duke machine
started functioning on all cylinders
and two runs by Halfback Buddy
Luper put the Durham eleven in
striking distance of the Old Line
goal. Bobby Rute replaced Luper
and carried the ball to the Mary
land 16. Two sophomore's came into
the tilt and Ed Jones handed the
ball to End Cittadino on an end
around and the latter went over
the Maryland goal untouched.
CAN'T parted the uprights for. his
fifth straight point and Duke led,
$50.
Beamer kicked to the MarylanderS
and Joe Hoopengardner once again
endeavored to connect with one of
his high-fying aerials, but three
tries fell short and George Barnes
kicked to Dukes Bobby Rute who
returned the ball IS yards to Mary
lands 18. Rute passed 1s yards
to Bob CAN'T for Dukes final score.
CAN'T again converted.
Maryland tried more passes, but
the gun sounded ending the game.
In Duke Territory Twice.
Only on two occasions did the
visitors penetrate into Duke terri
tory and on both they failed to dent
the Duke forward wall which seemed
to stiffen lust as the Old Liners
were making their best bid for a
score.
Coach Eddie Cameron employed
the use of three full teams. Gordon
Carver, who missed the Tech game
last week, returned to the Blue Devil
lineup to add his fine kicking to the
Blue Devil effort. His fine kicking
continually kept the Old Liners back
on their heels as he amassed a
kicking average of All yards.
Maryland at times showed lot
of offensive punch. With Tommy
Mont out of action, soon after the
start of the second half the Old
Liners seemed to lose their best
