his teammates by his example and

Turyn, Terps' Star
Passer, Blossoms
las Ball Carrier

It's rare that a T-formation foot
ball team has quarterback who
does lot of rushing as well as
most of the passing. Such is the
distinction of Vic Turyn of Mary
land who has blossomed as a dan
gerous ball carrier this season and
is running the ball more and more.
AS a leather lugger he had his
best day in last Saturdays defeat
by Duke, and only one other Old
Line player gained more yards on
the ground. Vic carried the pig
skin Is times for 81 yards, which,
in addition to his passing for 95
yards with seven competitions in 16
tries, gave him a total of 1856 for
his days work.
Fred Folger, Dukes triple threat,
was listed as the days individual
star, but his total of IS yards rush.
ing and rs passing was less than
Turyn's. Only Maryland player
earning more yards along the
ground than Turyn was Hubie
Werner, left halfback, who covered
81 yards in Is rushes.
That, incidentally. shows another
change at Maryland, because until
now it has been the right halfback
who has been getting the most yard
age from Coach Jim Tatum's split
r offensive. That's where Lu Gam
bino played last season and that's
where Vern Seibert, currently the
teams leading ground gamer,
operates this season.
Vern was injured slightly last
week in the Duke game and hasn't
practiced yet this week, but Trainer
Duke Wyre says he'll be ready to
practice by tomorrow and definitely
will be in Saturdays big game
against George Washington at Grit
fifth Stadium.
None of the Maryland players so
far has earned a mention among
the statistical leaders in the weekly
report of the National Collegiate
Athletic Bureau. but the whole team
is doing well. The balance in Coach
Tatum's attack is shown by the fact
that the Old Liners rate fourth
among the Nations major schools
in rushing offense with an average
of 30s.3 yards game on the ground.
They are sixth in total offense,
averaging 1913 yards.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 20. - The
Chicago Cardinals are the top Of
fensive team in the National Foot
ball League today, although the de-
Tending champions trail the Chicago
Bears in the loop standings.
Gaining momentum with each
passing week, the fleet backs and
ends Of Jimmy Conzelman's squad
have amassed a total Of 1875 yards
in four games. The Cardinals have
rushed the ball 900 yards for an
average Of ST. yards per carry, best
in the NFL.
Paced by the surprising Ray NAL
louf, subbing for injured Paul
Christman at quarterback, the
Cards have gained 667 yards
through the air. The Cardinals
rise to the statistical top Of the NFL
was given impetus by their sensa-
tional play last Sunday in their So
toss triumph with the New York
Giants.
Green Bay, under the verbal LASH
ing Of Coach Curly Lambeau,
smacked down Los Angeles Sunday
to take second place in the total
of1ense department. The Packers
have gained 1,458 yards through the
air and on the ground, one yard
more than the Chicago Bears.
Los Angeles tops the circuit in
forward passes completed with Sc
out Of 146 for S48 yards-biggest
gain through the air-followed
closely by Washington with So COM
pletions in los tries and Philadel-
phia, 81 Of 95. The Bears have the
best percentage Of passes completed
55.3.
Joe Muha's great punting showed
Philadelphia into first place in that
department to replace the Bears
The Eagles have an average of 1853
per boot to lead the Bears and Rams
tied at 44.8.
Individually, Philadelphia's Tom

McQuade, halfbacks, and Pete
Wall, fullback. THAT combination
could do anything" he declared.
And what team they made. They
were better than the four horsemen
Of Notre Dame and I'm sincere IN
saying that. Maloney was a great
punter and drop kicker. Gilroy was
one of the best runners and passers
I've ever seen. We had an end,
Tommy Whelan, who was wonder.
He caught more passes from Gilroy
than anybody else in the country
caught that year."
The football record books back up
Exendine in regard to the greatness
of that 1916 team. 1t lost only to
Navy, 7-13; beat Dartmouth, a grid
power in those days, 100, and rolled
up fantastic scores against seven
other opponents. Its total of 474
points was highest in the Nation
and Gilroy was the country's leading
scorer with 20 touchdowns and "A
conversions for 1874 points. Altogether
1t was one of the most brilliant sea-
sons q Georgetown team ever had.
Among the other players well re-
membered by Exendine were Dan
OConnor of the 1915 and 1916 teams,
"a great tackle and a wonderful
player" and Jack Flavin, quarter
back and halfback from 1918 through
1922" the most marvellous punter I
ever have SEEM

recalls Exendine. He had another
long run for 76 yards against a
Quantico Marine team in l922-and
Quantico in those days was really a

Flavin was a star during George

to Georgia Tech. 1t was in the Holy
Cross game, won by Georgetown,
23-7, that Flavin earned national
prominence with a punt that trav-
eled ITO yards. 76 yards in the air.
Another Of Flavin's great per-

from throwing the pigskin farther
this season than it has ever been
thrown before by any one player.
The Wolfpack's T-formation quar-

1,O31 yards in four games to lead
the Nations passers in that de-

Heath has connected with SO

actual work of the Mississippi Legis-

full week and committees turned out
more work than during any other

Thursday when Democrats from

determine what action can be taken
if national party leaders insist on
straying from "Jeffersonian Demo

over 5000 people unanimously de-
nounced the ten-point "Civil-Rights"
program of President Truman and
the president himself; then backed a
pledge for States Rights, and okayed
a plan to call a southwide or nation
wide meeting in Jackson at a later
date to determine whether to act
through a new party.
Earlier in the week, both houses
passed resolutions denouncing the
party's national leadership for its
anti Southern" attitude, and blast
