There was little JOY in Terpville
today as the Maryland football
squad prepared to leave for Birm-
ingham where it meets Auburn
tomorrow afternoon in search OF
a 14th consecutive triumph.
With Ed Barritt, the regular
fullback, not even making the trip
and two other players out with

Tatum further was disturbed by

'parture a o'clock and what he
termed miserable final practice

There had been stories that
Barritt was not performing up to
expectations in the practices and
scrimmages this fall, but the big

Duke Wyre to secrecy over a leg
injury. Tatum finally noticed
Barritt limping in practice and
the fact that he had q pulled leg

sand colored gallopers occupy un-

Desert. They are extremely shy and
can outjump their cousin the jerboa

They reside in warrens reached

Clothed in the softest of fur that
blends perfectly with the surround
