Both are seniors and 230-
Founders. They are Ed Listopad,
who prepped at Baltimore's Pat

Oddly enough both have
wrestling backgrounds from high
school days, and George has car
ried his enthusiasm into college.
The Deacons have no wrestling
team. but George has gone on his
own to the last two Southern
Conference tournaments, and both
times won the heavyweight title.
Have Big Veteran Line.
With these two as a nucleus,
the Deacons have a big veteran
line. almost an iron-man outfit.
They all are seniors or juniors,
averaging 215 pounds. The start
ing crew plays both on offense
and defense with the exception of
the guards. Few substitutions
have been necessary.
The lineup the Colonials will
face tomorrow night is the same
that led the country's major COL
leges in total defense last year
and currently ranks fourth.
Having a line like that operat-
ling in front of them gives the
Deacon quarterbacks an advan-

plenty of time to throw and have

Coach Liked Whot He Sow
7 7otum Got Tip on AIderton From Movies
By MerreII WhittIesey

There are some football stars
who are not the result of patient
scouting through high and prep
school. fabulous college offers and
careful upbringing as freshmen.
Some players just have SO much
natural ability ethey force the
coach to find q place for them on
the team.
That's the way it was with John
Alderton, who the Maryland
coaches say is the best defensive
end in the South. There's only
ITO pounds of him. but most of
Maryland's opponents are thank
full there's not more.
John has an added incentive to
make good against North Carolina
Saturday afternoon at College
Park. Last year against the Tar
Heels he got mixed up on Sc
quence Of plays and for one set
of downs everything went wrong.
That's his only serious mistake in
two years of varsity football. He's
out for revenge.
Saw Alderton i'm Movies.
Alderton became a varsity foot
ball player through the movies.
and it wasn't a screen test. Last
fall Coach Jim Tatum divided his
Maryland squad into two groups
and took one to Hershey. Pa, to
|scrimmage Penn and left another
home to work against George
Washington.
Alderton was one Of the stay
at-homes. But pictures were taken
of the CIV scrimmage. and before
the reel was over Tatum instructed
an assistant to move Alderton up
to the first team. He's been there
ever since.
Four years ago Warren Giese,
Maryland's end coach. secuted a
high school game in Cumberland.
Md, to look over three touted
schoolboy players. He came back
and told Tatum the best football
player on the field that day wasn't t
one of the three boys he was sent
to watch. but kid named Alder
ton. TOO light though" Giese
told Tatum, "he only weighs 155."
Three-Sport Man.
Alderton came to Maryland, but
not on a football scholarship. He
was a three-sport man at Fort
Hill,< football. basketball and
track, and came to the Terps as a
basketball candidate. Alderton
came out for football but Tatum
confirmed Giese's appraisal. TOO
light" Jim said.
Through his freshman year Al
|derton worked with the rinkey-
dinks, and he wasn't in a position
to command attention. The
coaches didn't pay any heed until
they saw him in the movies, and
they've been admiring him ever
since.
Alderton has the ability to make
an offensive end, but he's so val
liable on defense Tatum doesn't
want to make him go all the way.
