combinations on the Maryland foot

With Wake Forest at College Park
Saturday. He's been shifting the

night sessions to see if he possibly
can find better combination than
the ones he's been using, and also
to give the players experience at
several jobs.
The Old Liners discovered they

Saturdays losing effort against Cur

pendable lads may be called on to
play several positions. Spears so far
doesn't believe there'll be any
changes in his starting backfield for
the Wake Forest game, although he
does plan to give Bob Troll, former
Centralite, more to DO. Bob, reserve
halfback, was used only toward the
end of the Curtis Bay tilt, but
showed speed and plunging ability.
The Old Liners came out of last
weeks game without serious in

One possible shift being contem-

BULLDOGS BEAT
DEMON DEACONS
Surprisingly Savage Wake
Forest Loses By
10 Margin

ATHENS, Ca, Oct. 8.-[P-
Georgia had everything but Fran
kie SinkWich tonight - nd a
Wake Forest team that met scrap
with scrap was beaten by touch
down, 10, in a thunderous game
that attracted $500 fans.
A first-quarter drive which went
70 yards for first down on Wake
Forests l, set up the single pay
strike of the game. On the first
play of the second period, Tiger
Barrett of Jacksonville dived over
the middle to score, and Georgia
Jernigan, substitute guard, place
kicked the extra point.
The team which last week beat
Tennessee Tech $50 found the
Deacons of Wake Forest tougher
than six kegs of steel spikes.
Again and again Wake Forest
pounded back and with less than
minute to go in the final quar-
ter it still was toss up that the
invaders would not tie the score.
A misplaced Wake Forest pass, in
tercepted by Bobby Hague of
Jacksonville, finally broke up the
ball game seconds before the con-
Guiding whistle.
Georgia outgained the Deacons,
203 yards to Sc on the ground, and
rolled up Is first downs to Wake
Forests 8-but the Bulldogs had
not the punch when it counted
most.
Where once they could count on
All-America Sinky for six or
eight or ten yards in the clutch,
they were being stopped tonight
at or near the line of scrimmage
as often as not. Wake Forest S
alert pass-defenders knocked down
nine of Ceorgia's II passes, linn
iting the winners to a bare IS
yards by air. The Deacons COM
pleted four of 10 tries for As.
Wake Forest threw the Bull
dogs back on their heels on the
opening kickoff, when Nick Sa-
crinity raced back almost to mid
field, and it took better than 10
minutes for Georgia to recover.
Most of Georgia's yardage was
gained in the first half, Wake
Forest savagely fighting the Win
ners to a standstill from intermis-
sion to the end of the game.
Center William STAFFORD, tow
ering, 200-pound senior from Graf
ton, W. Va, was the line stand
out of the game, repeatedly
smashing Georgia's thrusts I'M
aided. Fullback Russ Perry and

guns for Wake Forest, gaining 36
and so yards respectively. Each,
however, was also thrown for a.
