ColonioIs Taking Everything
To Miami But Good Hu|fbuck

SeahaWks out of Miami last wear
with an average attendance of
almost 10000, compared to about a
5000 average for the pro team. AL
though Miami has won only one
game and G. w. hasn't won any, a
crowd of better than $4,000 is ex-
pected tomorrow night.
The lone bright spot for the C. w
coaches is that the team does not
behave like a ball club that hasn't
won game. Although the Colonials
lack an inspirational leader, they're
in good spirits.
Diederich a Standout.
A freshman guard who probably
would not have made the trip II
this had been the first game of the
season, Howard Diederich is along
today as possible first-string guard
According to Stanley, feature OF
the films on the Wake Forest game
show the 180-pound 18-year-old
from Toronto, Ohio, picking up the
230-pound Wake Forest linemen and
| tossing them around like sacks OF
salt. Diederich was the lightest
lineman on the field but to the
Deacons he was the peskiest. Died
erich is not too sharp on offensive
but he's a defensive demon.
The Colonials were scheduled to
arrive in Miami late this afternoon
and work out at the Orange Bowl
under the lights tonight. The last
time they played in Florida, against
Rollins last year in Orlando, they
won, 1870.

AII-America Gridders
Shooting for Marks
In Wholesale STYLE
By the Associofed Press

NEW YORK, Oct. 23.-One game
past the halfway mark on it's Sc.
game schedule, the All-America
Football Conference today set its
sights on a hatful of new all-time
pro records.
A survey of statistics for 20 games
shows the circuit stands good
chance of surprising more than a
few of the existing marks. The
leagues teams already have an
average of 45.7 points a game, COM
pared with last years major league
record of 1875.
Seventy-eight touchdowns have
come through the air, indicating
that last years all-pro mark of 1873
is within easy reach. Another 179
have been made by running in con-
trast to the league record of 296
for 1916.
The first six scorers all have a
good chance of topping Lou Groza S
AAFC high of 84-all by place
kicks-for the 1916 inaugural season.
Chet Mutryn of Buffalo has 40, Spec
Sanders of New York, 48; Groza, Al;
Marion Motley of Cleveland, 80; Ray
Ramsey of Chicago, AZ, and Ben
Agajanian of Los Angeles, 40.
Passers have averaged 1881 yards
a game, compared with last years
1892 on an average of 40.6 attempts
to 40.3 per game.
Even in the tumble department,
things are. looking up. Conference

Seibert, La Rue Like|,
To Start for Terps
Al HaIfback Posts

Vernon Seibert and Jim La Rue,
two light but fast ball carriers, are
the probable starting halfbacks for
University of Maryland against Vir-
ginia Tech at Blacksburg Saturday
Both were among Maryland's best
players against Duke last week, Sci
bert with a number of neat gains
to his credit and La Rue with excep-
tionally good blocking and defensive
play.
The halfback posts generally go
to Lu Gambino and Hubie Werner.
Gambino is due to play most of the
time on offense this week, but indi-
cations are that Werner will be
missing for the second straight Sat-
urday with injuries.
The rest of Coach Jim Tatum' S
probable starting lineup has George
Simler and Francis Evans at ends,
Joe Drach game captain) and Will
bur Rock at tackles, Ed SchwarZ and
All Phillips at guards, Gene Kinney
at center, Vic Turyn at quarterback
and Harry Bonk at fullback.
Most of the other players making
the trip are sure to see lots of action,
especially If the Terps run into more
of that warm weather they had down
at Duke last week. Tatum has pretty
fair replacements in most positions,
particularly at tackle, where such
lads as Ray ,Krause, Jim Goodman
and Ches Gierula have shown they
can operate in the same league with
those listed as Saturday starters.
Joe Tucker makes a good quarter
back replacement and there also are
a number of halfbacks.

EN- ROUTE TO MIAMI, Oct. %
The George Washington University
football team was aboard The
Miamian today with oxygen masks
a half-time equipment change, 100
gallons of drinking water and other
paraphernalia necessary for a
Southern trip, all but the halfback
the Colonials need to help them win
a ball game.
It's been a long drought for the
Colonials, six straight defeats (the
last two games in '46 and four this
year,, and that's double the longest
previous losing streak in Skip
Stahley's II years of coaching.
And although the c. w. team is
hopeful, there will have to be a
tremendous improvement if the
Colonials snap that streak tomorrow
night against the University of
Miami Hurricanes in the Orange
