Second Team Lists
Four Other Terps
By the Assoeioted Press


Faloney, Chet Hanulak and
Ralph FELTON,, made the first
Atlantic Coast Conference foot
ball team selected by the Asso-
ciated Press.
The Orange Bowl bound Terps
and Duke, both with 80 confer
ence records, each placed four
men on the team, and South
Carolina won the other three
places. Clemson, North Caro-
lima, Wake Forest and North
Carolina State were not repre-
Sented.
The team was selected by the
APPS conference board and
sports writer's.
Tackle Stanley Jones was the
fourth Maryland player named,
while the Terps placed four men
on the second team to none for
Duke. John Irvine at center,
Bob Morgan at tackle, John
Bowersox at guard and Bill
Walker at end were the Mary
land players on the second team.
Two Terps on Third Team,
The TerpS placed Marty Cryt-
zer at end and Dick Nolan in
the backfield on the third team.
The first team:
EndS-Clyde Bennett, South
Carolina; Howard Pitt, Duke.
Tackles-Stan Jones, Mary
land; Ed Meadows, Duke.
Guards-Bobby Burrows Duke:
Frank Mincevich. South Caro-
lima.
Center-Leon CUNNINGHAM.
South Carolina.
Backs-Bernie Faloney. Chet
Hanulak and Ralph FELTON,, all of
Maryland; James (Red Smith,
Duke.
Mincevich and Cunningham
are juniors, the others seniors.
The line averages 212 pounds,
with not a man under 6 feet.
The backs, a bit on the short side
at an average of 5-feet-1O come
in at 1912 pounds.
Although all first team choices
gained healthy margins in the
balloting, only Faloney and Bur-
rows were unanimous selections.
FalOney Proved Able.
Faloney emerged from the
shadow of Jack Scarbath, Mary
lands 1852 All-America quarter
back, to give unbeaten Maryland,
the Nations No. l team, con-
tlnued excellence at that vital
spllt-T position. One of three
TerpS from Pennsylvania who
made the first team, Faloney did
all that was asked of him. He
ran, passed, kicked, blocked and
tackled with skill and led the
team with poise and confidence.
Operating with Faloney in the
Maryland backfield were a pair
of gifted performers-Hanulak,
165-pound halfback, and FELTON,.
l95-pound fullback. They lived
up to Coach Jim Tatum's pre-
season observation that the 1853
backfield was his best at Mary
land.
Hanulak developed into an
outstanding broken field runner.
He averaged 9.3 yards on his first
67 rushes. A top notch safety
man. he also turned in a fine
defense job marked by speed and
determination.
FELTON, Powerful Runner.
FELTON,, averaging 81 yards for
his first 81 ruShes, scored So
points in nine games. A bruis-
ing, powerful runner, he also was
an outstanding line backer and
kicked the points after touch
downs for the first team.
Halfback Smith. like his three
Duke teammates who made the
first team, is a native North
Carolinian. A late-season in
jury forced him to the Sidelines.
but not until he had established
himself as one of the hardest
runners ever to wear a Duke uni
form. When right. he was the
teams chief ground threat.
Bennett, a spectacular often
sive end for South Carolina last
year, continued to stand out in
that department. but added
defensive fireworks, especially
against Maryland and West
Virginia. Ted Petoskey, South
Carolina end coach, says Ben
nett is the best end he's seen in
his seven years at South Caro-
lima.
Pitt, Duke captain, also prize
pass catcher last year, had no
difficulty meeting the defensive
demands of one-platoon play.
Coach Bill Murray says he
