BieIski1s Powerful Toe Repoys
T0tun1 for His Unusual Fuyors
By MerreII WhittIesey

Jim Tatum was asked why
Maryland kicked a field goal
against Miami in the fourth
quarter last Friday to make the
score 800, when obviously the
Terps had been holding down
the score by not passing.
"It's nice to let our opponents
scouts know We have a player
who can kick 29-yard field
goals" the Terp coach replied.
ut might change their strategy
might even scare 'em a little. ="
The fellow who kicked the
field goal against Miami is Dick
BielSki. second-string fullback
and one of the best kickoff men
in college football today. Biel-
ski has overcome more handi-
caps to play football than any
PLAYER or the SQUAD.
Help From Commissioner.
He's the only player about
whom Tatum ever went to the
conference commissioner for
help. He ran for an hour a day
last summer after working dur
ing vacation on the field house.
He persuaded Ed Modzelewski to
teach him to stop running like a
halfback and run like a fullback,
because he has a fullback's build.
When the Terps we're looking
horrible in spring practice and
Tatum feared this could be his
poorest team, Bielski was de-
NOTED to the third string. Then
he became more aggressive,
gained confidence, and as Coach
Tommy Mont said, found his
second reaction"
BielSki is a Baltimorean and
could not afford to go to Mary
land or any other college, al
though he had offers from here
to California. One was from jeff
Cravath. the former Southern
Cal coach who recently wrote
''The Hypocrisy of College Foot
ball" for Golfers.
Allowance Sent Home.
With the permission of the
president of the University, the
dean and the commissioner of
the old Southern Conference,
Tatum obtained permission for
Bielski to live at Tatum's house
and help with the chores in his
freshman year. In that way
his subsistence allowance for
living off the campus could
be sent to his home. He
is the only player Jim has made
this exception for.
Bielskl developed slowly. He
had been a halfback at Patter-
son Park High in Baltimore and
tried to run like one in college
Evening star., 1953-10-28

although he had more power
than stiffness. Now he's lower
ing his shoulders and hitting
the line more like Big Mo. In
20 tries he is averaging 5.3 yards
per carry.
Bielski has kicked seven out
of nine extra points and one of
the two field goals ne tried. He
is a good blocker.
Dick has booted more tnan 70
per cent of the kickoffS he has
attempted through the end zone.
When Bielski boots, the oppos-
ing team just about figures to
put the ball in play on the 20
yard line. And the few times
opponents have chosen to run
the ball back, BielSki has been
in on the tackle. He was slow
until his daily sprints after work
last summer.
However, Mont, Tatum and
the other Maryland coaches ap-
plaud BielSki as much for his
new spirit as for his playing
talents. When Bielski knew he
was going to be depended upon
as the kickoff man, for extra
points and fullback chores with
the second unit, he blossomed
out.
Bielski is a 6-foot 200-pounder
and 20 years old. He's a good
looking guy and is one of the
most popular members of the
squad. although fairly quiet. He
married his high school sweet
heart, Johan Mazzadri, and they
have a 10-month-old daughter,
Debra 10. They live at the vet
eranS' barracks, his wife works to
help out, and it's one of those
cases which make Tatum happy
to be a football coach.

KANSAS CITY, Oct. 28.-
Oklahoma may be minus some
top backs when it tries to tame
the rampaging Kansas State

The midweek report from the

Bob Burris, f1rst-string full
back, is being treated for a
pinched nerve in his neck. His

sidelined with a wrenched knee.
Tom Carroll, left halfback, is
still out with a knee injury. Jack
Cling, regular left half, injured
three weeks ago, is back running
plays, but hasn't returned to
peak condition.
The Wildcats. one-time winless
wonders of college football but
who this year have been trounc-
ing former tormentors, appear
healthy.
Kansas State went through
full speed offensive and defensive
scrimmages yesterday as it pre-

'Korcheck May Find
His Equal at Center
In McHenry Of W&L
BY George Huber

Steve Korcheck, the very tall
ented center and linebacker at
George Washington University
whose playing is sheer delight to
lovers of the rock 'em-sock 'em
type of football, will run up
against another player of the
same caliber Saturday.
The Colonials travel to Lexing-
ton. Va, to meet Washington &
Lee and the Generals have big
center who looms as Korcheck'S S
chief rival for the All-Southern
Conference team this year.
Playing center and linebacker
for W85L is Bill McHenry, 215-
pound senior from Swarthmore,
Pa. He's the team captain, and
already has accepted an invita-
ton to play in the 1853 Blue
Gray at Montgomery, Ala, in
December.
Injury Kept McHenry Out.
McHenry was injured in the
Maryland game last month and
sat out games against North
Carolina and West Virginia. He's
been back for games against
Richmond and Virginia Tech,
and, like Korcheck of CIV, his
play has been outstanding even
though his team was losing.
Line Coach Ed Kensler of
W&L, who himself was an out
standing linebacker at Mary
land, secuted CIV in last weeks
game against William and Mary.
and came away with high praise
for the way Korcheck played.
Kensler calls Korcheck and Nc
Henry two of the finest centerS
he ever has seen and only wishes
he could stay at Lexington and
watch them play against each
other instead of going off on
another scouting trip.
The rave notices Korcheck has
been getting are sure to bring
the pro scouts after him, hut
Steve himself is a bit dubious
about the pro game. His first
love is baseball, and he wants
very much to get into the big
leagues as a catcher.
He has had number of Of
ferS from pro baseball. At 200
pounds he has the weight and
size for it, his hitting is gooo
and he's fast. There always
seems to- be a shortage of eaten
ers, and Steve'S friends think
that if he goes into baseball it
won't be many years before he
makes the big time.
KOrcheck Still Undecided.
On the other hand he's 4Ikely
to get a good offer from pro
football, and it would mean
stepping into the big leagues
right from college.
Speaking on that subject the
other day, Steve admitted: "ItS
going to be tough deciding, pro-
viding of course a pro football
club wants me-"
1--WE always thought I would
try for a baseball career, but
some times those football deals
are pretty good. I guess you
can last longer in baseball, but
it takes a while to get up there
and in football you make it right
away"
Baseball already has inter-
fered with football a little with
Korcheck. He was playing
summer ball in Nova Scotia this
year and the playoffs in his
league extended into September.
It made Steve more than a week
late reporting for football prac-
tice. 1t didn't affect his foot
ball playing. however, because
he was ready to play 50-odd
minutes on a hot and humid
day in GW'S opening game.

AREA HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL
STANDINGS

AS long as football is played
arguments will go on and on
about which is the better system
to use, the single wing or the T
or Split-T. Each has its sup
porterS and among area high
school teams it is about evenly
divided.
Of the 81 high school games
scheduled this week, the more
interesting ones appear to be
non-league contests and In six
of these, different offenses will
be tested.
For example, Bladensburg at
Tech will find the former using
a split-T, whereas Tech will en-
ploy T or single wing, depend
ing on the situation. A similar
case can be found when st.
Johns visits George Washington.
The JohnnieS are strictly a T
club while Coach Jim Ford at
CIV uses both the T and single
wing on occasions.
One other clash might be
pointed up which is a story
within itself. Suitland at Ana
costa will throw two exponents
of the single wing against each
other. And matching wits will be
two coaches who played at
George Washington where they
learned the system, Walt Fedora
of Suitland and Zuzu Stewart
of AnacoStia.
In Stewards case, he is using
an offensive system that has
brought results over the years.
Stewart has been at AnacoStia
some IL years and used the single
wing exclusively. This season he
started out with the T and the
Indians lost their first three
games. Stewart went back to
the single wing and the team has
come up with two straight wins,
the last a notable 1914 defeat
of Eastern last week.
Three other games of note will
find Coolidge's single wing team
against Montgomery Blair's T
and Bulls against the Navy
PlebeS at Annapolis and Wash
ington-Lee against Thomas
Jefferson at Richmond, the lat
ter two games involving T teams.

Arabs, Ex-EnVoy Charge!
BY the Asseeiatsd Press

ASHLAND, Va, Oct. 80. - A
former United States Ambassa-
dor in the Middle East said yes
terday that because political
leaders of both parties put po-
litical prestige ahead of action
we have "alienated the Arab
world and have lost much of
our influence in the larger Mos
lem world"
j. Rives ChildS, former Am
bassador to Saudi-Arabia, Minis

resignation last winter Ambas-
sador to Ethiopia, spoke to a
student assembly at Randolph
Macon College here.
THE pressure which the Zion
list Organization of America"
came to exert on the Federal
Government for the establish
ment of a Jewish state in Pales-
tine began slowly and only
gathered momentum under the
Roosevelt and Truman admins
trationS," Mr.. ChildS said.
Mr.. Childs said it "is time
that we began to speak plainly
to Israel and to bring our in
fuence to bear upon a just set
tlement with the Arabs. We can
not expect that our influence can
be made felt as long as Israel
is assured that American do
