Maryland and W.&l..
Saturday Opponents,
Have Same Records ]

Virtually identical records will be
presented by the Maryland and
Washington and Lee elevens when
they clash Saturday at Baltimore.
Both have won two games and lost
four, both bowing to william and
Mary and Richmond, and both
teams have scored 81 points this
season.
The Generals, like Maryland, r
outfit, were thumped 1877 last week
by Virginia Tech, which previously
was beaten by the Terps, SO. WASH
ington and Lee is one of the most
air-minded team in the South, how
ever. and Maryland has been dis
playing shoddy pass defense all
season.
Tossing for the Generals will be
Dick Working, Baltimore boy, and
Mike Boyda, whose brother, John, is
q former Maryland star. Both
featured lengthy drill yesterday at
Lexington, Va, in mud and rain.
Meanwhile, Marylands regulars
took 1t easy after their hectic 2l-17
loss to South Carolina, with the
reserves goines through the usual
grind, as Coach Clark Shaughnessy
continued an attempt to tighten the
Terps' pass defense.

Eost's Biggest AII-Around Grid
Show of Year Slated Saturday
By Murray Rose
Asseeioisd Press Sports Writss

NEW YORK, Nov. 12-The East
comes up with its biggest all-around
football show of the season Saturday
with three Ivy League games on tap
along with such outstanding tilts
matching Army and Penn, Penn
State and Navy, Boston College and
Tennessee and Colgate and Syra-
cuse.
Army and Penn rate top billing, of
course. Philadelphia Franklin
Field will be packed with 80,000 fans
or so with most Of them hoping to
see the big Quakers end the Cadets
26-game unbeaten string.
Spilled 17-14 by Princeton two
Saturdays ago in the biggest East
ern upset in years, the Quakers are
out not only to boost their current
No. S national rating, but also to
make amends for the 61-0 shellack-
ing they took from the Cadets year
ago. They warmed up for Army
by humping Columbia, Ais, while
the Cadets played their 90 tie with
Notre Dame.
Last Game Before Classic.
This game Is Army's last before
the Navy classic November 80. Penn
State similarly is Navy'sslast oppo-
nent before the annual service Shin
dig, and the Middies are hopeful Of
breaking into the win column for
the first time since they tripped
Villanova.
The Middies have dropped six In
q row, but showed signs against
Georgia Tech Saturday that they
may even make matters rough for
Army. The Ramblin' Wreck de-
feated Navy, 1920, with q. late

Penn State is far from a push
over, however. The Nittany Lions

The Chicago Stays spoiled the

Meanwhile the Pittsburgh Iron-

five starts, an 84-7l triumph over
the previously unbeaten Providence
Steamrollers before . crowd Of only

This left Philadelphia and Cleve-

Texas, Southeastern
Club Now Held Likely
To Fill Sugar Bowl
By The Assoeioisd Pres,

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 12.-By q
simple process of elimination the
most likely Sugar Bowl football
match appears at this date to be
Texas University against any one
of four Southeastern Conference
schools.
or course last Saturdays tie be-
tween Army and Notre Dame gave
rise to much speculation--locally, at
least--on the possibility Of rematch-
ing those mighty outfits In q post
season dream game. But such an
idea must remain only that's
dream.
When q good Southeastern Con-
ference club Is available the Sugar
Bowl usually makes a bid for 1t. An
SEC team has appeared in nine
Of the II local classics.
This year the choice is wide
Georgia, ranked No. 8 behind Army
and Notre Dame In the latest As
sociated Press poll: Georgia Tech,
No. Z: Tennessee. No. 8. and Louisi-
ana State, No. IL.
But .IexaS is the only other
eligible outfit among the first 10
In the ratings. All the rest have
other commitments or bans against
bowl games.
The Longhorns are listed at No
8, far above Rice and Arkansas,
which appear, however, to have
better chances at the Southwest
Conference title. The champion OF
that loop is pledged to the Cotton
Bowl, but other members are free
to play outside the Lone Star State
Reports from Los Angeles and
Dallas have both mentioned Texas
as q Rose Bowl possibility. But
they're talking also about Army
and Q Big Nine team playing out
there.
As to the Army-Notre Dame idea,
1t comes on good authority that the
Irish won't play q postseason game
in the foreseeable future. The
Sugar Bowlers have had little hope
OF getting Army.
The Sugar Bowlers have prided
themselves on pitting evenly
matched teams. They can do that
with Texas and an SEC school
They couldn't do 1t with Army and
anybody else except Notre Dame.

Irish Beaten Three Times.
The perpetual souvenir of the
traditional encounter is a gnarled
club. an Irish shillelagh, which has
escaped Notre Danes possession
only three times as result Of three
Northwestern victories in Is
attempts.
In 1895 q highly-fayored unde-
feated Notre Dame team, en- route
to the mythical national collegiate
crown, was upet lat by the thrice
beaten Wildcats. Only once have
the two rivals met with both having
unbeaten records. That was in 1880
when Marchy Schwartz zoomed n
yards for q touchdown to help the
Irish win 14-o.

victory over the Irish next only to q
