University Of Maryland football
team in the Old Liners homecom-
ing game with Washington and Lee

Maryland elects no captain and in
naming Gilmore as leader for the
final game of the season Coach
Clark Shaughnessy imposed a triple
task upon the College of Business
and Public Administration senior.
Gilmore already had double job on
the eleven, playing end on attack
and shifting to the backfield on de-
fense
Gilmore, though, has a habit Of
making good in about all he tries,
being the only four letterman in
the university He also has won his
letter in basket ball, boxing and
track, although during his soph and
Junior years he suffered an appen-
dectomy and broken bone in his
ankle. In addition to doing other
things well on the grid he is one Of
the teams leading pass catchers.
Sidelights to Be Colorful.
Maryland and Washington and
Lee will be playing their 18th game
In 19 years in series begun in 1924,
with the Old Liners holding a 9-5
edge with two ties. and there will be

Generals Are Dangerous Foes.
Although Washington and Lee ap-

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Nov. 20.
They've been playing without
acclaim or support from the stu
dent body, but that hasn't
stopped Yale's praying" Junior
varsity football team, coached
by a couple of parsons, from
compiling an undefeated and un-
tied record.
The big, final test comes today
when the Rev. David G. Colwell
and the Rev. Alfred C. Seccombe
send their charges against tradi-
tional foe Harvard.
No matter what happens the
parsons, who used to play a bang
up game themselves not too long
ago, will be proud Of their lads.
It's been quite a while since any
Yale football team came up to
its last contest with such a rec
ord.
Says Colwell, a star back at
Yale during the Clint Frank
Larry Kelley golden era in the
late sos, and Seccombe, an all
Southern guard at Virginia: "It
takes more courage to play junior
varsity football than varsity;
there's no adulation and the boys
take a dickens Of a beating"

.Pass-Snatchiinu
.McNary Given
Starting Job
Hoyo Line Outweighs
ColonioIs' by Five
Pounds Per Man
By BURTON HAWKINS.

Indications that George Wash
ington's underdog football team
hopes to strike swiftly through the
air against Georgetown tomorrow at
Griffith Stadium were evident today
when Coach Johnny Baker of the
Colonials announced he would start
gluey fingered, 6-foot 5-inch Don
McNary at end.
McNary isn't recognized as a par
ticularly effective defensive flank
man, although the Kentucky punt
he blocked creased the ways for G
WIS only touchdown against the
Wildcats several weeks ago. Only
twice this season has McNary been
intrusted with starting assignment
and on both occasions he responded
nobly.
1t is significant, perhaps, that in
both the Kentucky and Richmond
games that McNary started G. w.
grasped lead through his efforts
Against Kentucky the kick he
smeared set the stage for Paul
Weber's touchdown sprint that gave
the Colonials 60 lead, and against
Richmond the lean end snatched a
Jimmy Graham pass on a play cov-
ering 80 yards to provide G. WIS
first touchdown.
Baker Offensive Minded.
Baker apparently is putting his
emphasis on offense, for he'll be
stacking McNary against one of the
smoother ends in this neck of the
woods in Bob Duffey. Offensively
and defensively Duffey was an an
noying character against N. c.
State last week, his polished per-
formance failing to gain the notice
it merited simply because Quarter
back Joe Gyorgydeak was having an
amazing afternoon.
The line Baker will send into ac-
ton against the Hoyas will concede
an average of five pounds per man
to Georgetown, but when Maurice
Hurley, 235-pound tackle, moves
into the game G. w. will offset
that deficit. The Colonials' start
ing line will average 1913 pounds to
the Hoyas' 1913, and Georgetown's S
backfleld average of II will top G.
WIS starting ~backfield by three
pounds.
Only one spot is undetermined in
either lineup. Coach Jack Hagerty

tackle replacement for the injured
265-pound Ross Sorce, but it is likely
the 200-pound Ola will get the call.
Hagerty will employ the 218-
pound George Perpich at the other
tackle position, with Tom Costello
and Duffey at ends, Tom Ponsalle
and Bus Werder at guards. Ed Der

At tackles Baker will start 215-
pound John Koniszewski and 21O-
pound Carl Butkus, with Ellis Hall
and Enrico Seeno getting the guard
jobs and Don Seibert starting at
center.
Constrating Georgetown's all
senior backfleld, Baker will launch
proceedings with two sophomore
and two junior backs, with Jimmy

and Frank Seno named as starters.

Spang|er for Lead
In Punt Returns
By ARNOLD DERLITZKI,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

CHICAGO, Nov. 20.-The South
and the East, which perennially
produce footballs leaders in punt
returns, may have to yield honors
to the Midwest this year if In
diana's Billy Hillenbrand keeps lop-
ing along.
Hillenbrand has returned l8 punts
for 1872 yards, an average OF 2l.Z
yards per runback, the American
Football Statistical Bureau said to-
day. Only Tulsa's Gene Spangler
has a better average-226 yards
among those returning 10 or more
punts. and Spangler just got under
the wire with 10.
Johnny Cochran of Wake Forest
Is tied with Hillenbrand in yard
age but figured in more returns, 20.
Busiest safety man in the busl-
ness, however is Bernie Deehan OF
Iehigh, with 35 runbacks for 289
yards.
Porto Leads in Kickoff Returns.
The matter of kickoff returns
comes under the headinng OF Far
West monopoly. Frank Porto, Cal
ifornia, leads with 314 yards in II
runbacks; Arnold Scott, Montana
has 257 in IL, and Ken Solari, U. G.
L. A., 224 in 8.
But for the super-super in kick
off runbacks. Marquette offers
Johnny Strzykalski. He has taken
only two and returned both fol
touchdowns-one 90 yards, the 9TH
er SO.
At combined runbacks Of punts
and kickoffs, Hillenbrand again sets
the pace with a 2l5 yard average
although Buddy Luper Of Duke has
the most yards-494 in 26 returns.
Hillenbrand has 480 in %, Deedah

He noted with pride that labor

concludes with a strong recon-
mention that organized labor in

to state laws SO that judges will be

an amendment, he said, will put

take this practice out of the Legis-
Iative Halls.

STILL HAVE POVERTY

Labor has much of the same atti-
tude. Arising from the needs of the
working man and woman, we still
find that organized labor has as its
chief task the obtaining of decent
wages and working conditions for
those who toll. We find ourselves in
the middle of the twentieth century.
We have science at Our beck and call
to perform miracles in producing the
things we need. Mans ability to pro-
duce is 1000 times greater than it
was only fifty years ago. But through
out the country you will find, even
today, families in want; families who
live in the worst kind of slums; in
short, poverty still exists.
Organized labor, with its mill
lions of friends, many of whom are
members of the clergy, have begun
TO make progress i'm the attack on
poverty when the war broke out.
At first many of us thought that
the war would set us back many
years in our struggle to make a
better life for all. But we were
wrong. We now see that we have
a voice in determining what are
the detectives of this war. To wipe
out the Nazi idea that the individ-
ual does not count? Yes. That is
one objective, and the immediate
one. To restore freedom to the
millions under Hitler's brutal heel?
Yes, that is another objective. To
ensure the safety of our own coun-
try, and our own democracy? That,
of course, is of paramount inn
pOrtance.

no responsibility of ours-that

we can do is hope that things will
be better soon. Our aims are not
far apart, as / see it. Religion places
all of its emphasis on the individ-

TEXT OF SERMON

President Feinmark spoke, in part,
as follows:
Three years ago I was invited to
speak from the pulpit of St. An
drew's, and it was a very satisfying
experience. 1t was also the Sunday
before Labor Day, and although the
world at that time seemed to be in
a shaly condition, as far as peace
was concerned, the war had not
broken out, and we were able to pray
together that, in some way, we would
be spared another world conflict. l
think we must have been hoping for
a miracle, for war in Europe came
with lightning speed-24 hours later.
In the three years that have passed,
much has happened to all of us. Life
which at best is a serious undertake
ing-has become more serious. In all
parts of the world, men and women
have died-by the millions. The ma
jority of people in this world still
are not free from fear; are still not
free from want.
