All Angles Of Passing
Worrying 1erps for
Till With Indians

Passing doubtless will receive more
than passing attention at College
Park this week as the Maryland
gridders prepare for the visit OF
William and Mary Saturday for a
Southern Conference game.
The Old Liners so far have not
proved very adept in throwing the
ball themselves or stopping the other
fellows aerials. This particularly
was true in the 1913 clash with
West Virginia at Morgantown last
Saturday.
The Mountaineers, we'll outplayed,
connected on II out of Is passing
attempts, and marched to a late
touchdown on aerials that tied the
encounter, while the Old Liners
tossed the ball just five times and
made good only twice. There could
be no criticism of Maryland's run
ming attack that piled up 200 net
yards to nine for West Virginia.
William and Mary, with a power
house squad, would have been a
heavy favorite over Maryland had
they met last week, but the Indians
now are rated little better than
$3.50. This came about because OF
the 20-6 upset licking William and
Mary took at the hands of North
Carolina State last Friday night
Previously the Indians had whipped
Virginia Tech, $50, team thai
later jolted Maryland, 2l-13.
The Indians, however, with about
20 letter men, have the speed ane
weight to be a powerhouse In any
contest and all Maryland really Car
do to battle this disadvantage IL
poundage and experience is to bt
on razor edge and play up to tn.
hilt.
But 1t is evident that the Ok
Liners will have to do something
about all phases Of their aerial game
1t might be mentioned that Will
liam and Mary is in the same boat
All the scoring in its defeat las
week was from aerial efforts, tn,

NEW YORK, Oct. 30.-The Pacific

for footballs national high-scoring
honors in Terry Ragan who piled up
72 points for the unbeaten Univer-
sity Of Redlands eleven before being
transferred to Southern California

Ragan, halfback, scored II

the Trojans' lineup against WASH

ball three times for short gains but

Trailing Ragan by six points were
Jim Boswell, of Oberlin, the Mid

janowski, of Connecticut, who tops
the Eastern pointgetters. Boswell
hung up his togs when Oberlin COM

/ NEW YORK, Oct. 30.-Army
Notre Dame and Navy retained the
first three places among the coun-
try's top 10 football teams as de-
termined by the weekly Associated
Press poll today but the remainder
of the elite group underwent a
thorough shake-up.
Three new teams were admitted
to membership, three others grabbed
new places and only beaten Penn
sylvania kept its position. j
Army, playing what the Cadet
coaches said was the teams best
game of the season, defeated Duke
4S to 13 Saturday and today did one
of its best vote-getting jobs by
snaring 81 first places in the 106
ballots cast. Ten critics placed the
team second and five rated it no
better than third.
Six Put Irish on Top.
Notre Danes unbeaten string and
its 55-to-0 conquest of Iowa induced
six voters to place the Irish first
and Navy was the choice of three.
Alabama garnered four first-place
votes and st. Mary's of California
received two.
The Cadets, who have been on top
since a year ago this week when
Notre Dame relinquished the
throne, gathered 1,040 points.
Alabama, which battered Georgia
by 28-to-l4 score Saturday, hoped
from sixth to fourth and was fol-
lowed, in order, by Indiana, Ohio
State, Pennsylvania, st. Mary's of
California, Oklahoma A. g. M. and

Ohio State, Oklahoma A. g. M. and
Michigan are the new members of
the top 10 although it is a return
appearance for both of the Big Ten

day by Purdue, Minnesota and

Doolan should go well with New
