Old Liners Face Big Problems
In Grid Talent and Schedule

V. P. l., Delaware, Western Mary
land and Florida suspended for the
duration, and a clash with West
Point was lost through a mixup dur
ing the coaching change at College
Park.
May Not Play V. M.
And V. M. I. is offering another
headache. Although it reports a
squad far below normal, it isn't ac-
cepting the Southern Conference
decision of last week to throw eligi-
billty rules out the window for the
duration. V. M. I. wants to play under
the loops old code. That means no
freshmen, no transfer students and
no students not maintaining high
academic status So if the two
schools can't get together on this
matter there may not be contest
between the Old Liners and Cadets.
If they can get together a trans
fer of this game to Roanoke on
Thanksgiving Day to fill in for the
cancelled V. P. I.-V. M. I. clash
is possible. 1t doubtless would be
money making spot.
To face any schedule, the Old
Liners have crew of 40 rockies,
plus few Army rejects. Some of
them never have played football
except on sandlots. They are light
and hardly a good lineman is in
the bunch. Backf1eld candidates are
fair and there are several decent
kickers but no passer has been dis
covered.
Few Are Showing Promise.
Among the boys showing promise
are Les DAILY, freshman end last
year; Ralph Sico, another Wingman,
and Bud Bernado, big guard cur
rently playing tackle. He weighs
2l0 pounds, but some of that must
come off.
In the backfield is Joe Maker
quarterback and a fair kicker and
blocker; Joe Porkony, a tall, fast
198-pounder from Baltimore who
also kicks and passes little, and
Charles Choenherr.
Spears is using a modified T for
nation with shift, sometimes with
an unbalanced line. Plays start
from the T, and from shift to a
box-like setup.
However, despite all the obstacles,
Maryland and Spears are deter
mined to keep the game going and
they deserve pat on the back for
their fortitude.

There's no use saying the football
outlook at the University of Mary
land is bright. There's lot of en-
thusiasm and spirit on the practice
field, but when the schedule-what
there is of it's viewed and the
Old Liners chances of winning a
game here and there are weighed,
matters are dark.
Maryland, with no help from Army
boys studying there, definitely is
short of talent. This was suspected
when candidates were called out
three weeks ago and this suspicion
has been confirmed now that about
half a dozen scrimmage sessions
have been held. Clarence Doc)
Spears, head coach, and his corps
of assistants still are busy teaching
the rudiments of football with no
letup in this phase in sight.
Maryland is unfortunate in that
most of its students come from a
State in which little high school
football is played. Baltimore, Hagers-
town and Cumberland are the only
cities supporting the game, and
there are no players from last years
varsity and only few from the
1912 frosh.
Schedule Also Is Problem,
And in addition to this player
problem Spears has been hard put
to reorganize schedule. That's
more than enough headache fol

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Aug. 28.-The
war has played havoc with the !
sports program Of many an educa-
tional institution, and the problem
which these changes have posed for {
Nays athletic officials to solve Is
the potential strength of the Tars's
1943 gridiron opponents. z
Eight of the Middies' foes are col
leges and universities boasting VS.
and Via Navy units, while the ninth
and last game is with Army. -
Navy Is adhering to the three
year rule Of varsity competition, as.
is the Army, but a glimpse at some.

of the class Of football which may.
be expected.
Athletic officials here are wonder,

spring when the Tar Heel Navy unit
defeated the Academy IA to 2. =
Cornell. Penn State and Georgia
Tech remain unknown opponents,
but rumors here are that Duke will ],
have the service of at least three
linemen who formerly played for
Georgia. What other material the
Blue Devils have is a big question
for Navy, anyway.
Notre Dame Is Strong.
Notre Dame, too, is known to have
strong squad this year, but the
names of individual players, and
their records, remain Navy (V-12)
secrets.
Bert Stiff. a fullback at Pennsyl-r
vania for three years, gave Navy
| plenty of trouble, and the Tar
coaches could, UNDERSTANDABLE, have
breathed sighs of relief when he
graduated last spring.
But what happens?
Stiff turns up at Columbia III
that schools Navy unit, and the
odds now are that he will be pacing
the field again against the Middies.
Pennsylvania's coach, George
Munger, however, seems not to be
worrying over his football prospects.
Look what he's starting practice
with.
One team running through sig
nails included Mike Sotak, formerly
of Pittsburgh, at left end; Ed Mi
| kula of William and Mary, guard;
Les zetty, former Muhlenberg end,
left tackle; Francis Kane, right
end, who came from temple, and
George Yelling, former Villanoya
fullback.
Middies Are Well Fixed.
Furnishing opposition were Ben
Celian, left end of Muhlenberg;
John McCloskey, another Pitt
Panther who played center; Charles
Williams, Kansas right tackle;
Joseph Michaels, formerly of Drexel,
tailback; Joseph McGlone, Temple
wingback, and Art Vincent, fullback
who came from v. P. I.
But Navy, with IA lettermen and
some able newcomers, will have
power to meet its opponents and
should be well fixed on both attack
and defense.
However, Academy athletic off,
cials know their squad is facing nine
tough opponents this year and
chances are they would rest easier
if they knew exactly what their
Navy unit opponents-and Army,
too-have.
