Heat Seen ADVANTAGE
lowell Manned Terps
In Game With CIV
By MerreIl WhittIesey

Maryland's ballyhooed football
team. a 33-point favorite over
George Washington today. found
everything working in it's favor
for the 2 o'clock clash in Byrd
Stadium in College Park.
The anticipated mid-80 degree
heat figured to be a definite
advantage for the much-heavier
manned Terp squad, which has
the reserve power needed for hot
weather.
Without point in a 800 de-
feat at the hands of Georgia and
900 loss to Virginia, the Colo
mails hoped to find a scoring
punch through the air today.
Maryland's defense proved vul-
nerable to passes against Wash
lngton and Lee last week, giving
up more than 200 yards. =
The Terps were making their
home debut before a crowd that
was expected to near 10000 by
kickoff time. Maryland opened
away from home last week. drub-
bing the Southern Conference
Generals. 54-14. with an impress
sive display of offensive football
from a wealth of versatile backs.
33-POint Edge Doubted.
Some George Washington sup
porters were quick to take the
33-point odds, figuring canny
Coach Bo Rowland would make
the most of his manpower and
come up with a defense to bother
the TerpS.
Maryland had to wait until late
in the game for positive victory
last year, finally winning 23-7,
although a top-heavy favorite.
The Terps were showing off
number of new twists today, in
cluding their All-America guard,
Bob Ward. leading the charge on
offense and slated for little, If
any. duty on defense, where he
starred last year.
1t was to be the varsity debut
at home for touted sophs and
freshmen, including Ed Barritt,
leading ground gamer last week;
Bernie Faloney as No. 2 quarter
back; the feet Chet Hanback,:
Paul Lindsay, a smart-appearing
end. and Fred Heffner, the bril-
liant punter as a freshman last
year.
CIV Relies on Davis.
George Washington, as usual,
was looking for all-around duty
from Andy Davis. who exemplifies
what the football purists want
who advocate abolishing the two
platoon system. Andy runs. kicks
and passes on offense and he's
probably the top defensive back
on the team.
Bob Cilento and Ken Belliveau
also will pass. GW's top running
threat is Bino Barriera, scat back.
After today. Maryland moves
into tougher league with Georgia.
North Carolina and LSU ahead
the next three weeks.

Editor Of the
West End News

Charlotte Amalle, st. Thomas
February 9, 1851
Mr.. Paul E. Joseph,
Editor, The West End News,
Frederiksted,
ST. Croix, Virgin Islands.
Dear Mr.. Joseph:
Your recent statements in OPP
position to my efforts to provide
a greater degree of self-support in
our Islands prompts me to say
that, in my opinion, you are doing
a distinct dis-service to u COM
munity. Let me add, however,
that / believe fully in the princi-
pies of freedom of the press. l
welcome criticism from any
source, especially when such crl-
ticism is of a constructive and
useful nature, but the destructive
criticism which you have leveled
against the administration IN
your recent editorials is certainly
not in the best interests Of the
community.
Mr.. Editor, it is your privilege
as a citizen in a democracy to op-
pose increased taxes. But it is also
your responsibility, not only as a
citizen but moreso as an editor, to
analize matters carefully, to give
the people the facts, and to refrain
from melting them-whether dl-
rectly or indirectly-to emotional
thinking and emotional action.
One does not solve serious prob
lens by wishful thinking, distor-
ton of motives, and personal
abuse.
I wonder, Mr.. Editor, if you
have studied carefully the provl-
sions of the bills relating to in
creased revenues in the Munich
patty of ST. Croix which the adj
ministration has presented to the
Municipal Council. Have you
stopped to analyze them and to
consider their effect on the COM
munity? Are you prepared to sug-
gest an alternative for a possible
reduction in federal contributions
to our municipal treasures? II so,
/ am quite sure that not only the
administration, but the people OF
the Islands as we'll, would be glad
to read the results of your serious
thinking and advice in the
columns of your newspaper.
I think the people should know,
Mr.. Editor, that editorials such as
those contained in your issues Of
January 10, February 2, and Feb
ruary 6, will certainly reach the
COMMITTEES of Congress dealing
with the affairs of the Islands
and with appropriations for the
