MIAMI, Dec. 28.-Maryland
had better be looking up the pen
atty for being late for the Or
ange Bowl game-it might have
to call on the officials to infiict
it.
Oklahoma's police escort lost
its way to the University Of
Miami field from the Emerald
Isles Hotel the first day of prac-
tice, and the Sooners were As
minutes late. Yesterday the
coaches, travelling in a separate
car, lost their way to the after
noon session and were a half
hour late.
The Sooners are staying in
the 1920 block of Collins avenue
on Miami Beach and the field
where they practice is in Coral
Gables. out near Tropical Park.
It's almost 20 miles through
heavy traffic, and it has taken
them as long as an hour and a
half each way, with a police
escort.
Yesterday the Sooners spent
almost five hours in their bus
travelling to and from the prac-
tice sessions, and it will be the
same thing today. Both Mary
land and the Sooners passed up
practice fields on Miami Beach
in favor of their sites in Miami.
However, Maryland has to go
less than 6 miles to the Miami
High School field from the
Flamingo Hotel.
SoOners Work on Extras.
Oklahoma had only 20 min
utes of contact work yesterday
in it's morning and afternoon
drills and found time to work
on such luxuries as field goals
and extra points. Maryland will
not work on the latter until it's
last workout, according to the
present schedule.
Eddie Crowder, Oklahoma'S S
brilliant quarterback of a year
ago, who played pro football in
Canada the past season. still is
a student at Oklahoma. He is
impersonating Maryland's, Ber-
ME Faloney when the SoonerS
work on defense.
Maryland had thought Of
bringing Jack Scarbath,. Crowd
er's counterpart, but it did not
work out.
The SoonerS' session featured
the running of Larry Grigg and
Merrill Green and the passing
of Gene Calame and his quarter
back replacement, Pat O'Neal.
Long Way to Go.
Coach Bud Wilkinson, who
like Maryland's Jim Tatum held
a semiclosed workout, said the
Sooners had a long way to go
before meeting team like
Maryland. He said the Sooners
didn't plan to work as hard as

enough. Bill was a good kicker
in high school at West Mifflin,
Pa, and at the start of the sea-
son was assigned to the second
team to give it a punter. He
moved to the first team when
Tim Flynn was injured, and he's
stayed there.
In its 10 games Maryland
kicked only 81 times this year,
while Oklahoma kicked SO, also
in 10 games. Oklahoma'S Buddy
Leake kicked 20 times, but he is
on the second team. Gene Ca
lame, who will start at quarter
back against Maryland, kicked 10.
TerDs Have Edge.
Maryland had 41.5-yard
average in punting against 30.1
for the Sooners. Faloney ranked
among the Nations leaders for
those who kicked less than Is
times with his 1877 average. for
19 kicks, while Heffner had 42.4
for 10.
Heffner is the senior who was
told before the season started
that he would not be used at
offense or defense, but would be
carried as punting specialist
If he thought all the practice
was worth the chance that he
might win or save a ball game.
After an allotted three days to
make a decision, he decided to
stick it out. Oklahoma might
be the game Tatum was refer
ring to. With unlimited subs a
thing of the past. there was no
room on most squads this year
for punting specialists.
Yesterday was another cool,
sunny day. more like early fall
than anticipated Miami weather.
1t was warm in the sun, how
ever, and by noon almost every
body in the Maryland party had
shed sports coats.
End With Rough Scrimmage.
The Terps devoted a half-hour
of their morning workout to
photographers and spent the
other half running through
plays. The players did not
watch the pro championship
game on television, since they
were ordered to their rooms for
maps after lunch. The second
workout was much longer and
much rougher and ended in a
rugged scrimmage.
Faloney, of course, stayed out
of the scrimmage, which was
under the direction of Jack Hen
nemier, who was in charge of
the defense. When one of the
first three units would be re-
lieved from the scrimmage, it
would work under Tatum on Of
fenSe.
The coaches were up until al
most midnight Saturday, going
over movies of the Oklahoma
games hour after hour. Two
more workouts are scheduled to-
day on the Miami High School
field.
Tatum's strategy of giving the
team an extended Christmas
holiday in the hope that it
would report here in good spirits
seems to be working. The Mary
land coach has lost some of his
tenseness and everybody seems
to be in good humor. The team
has been wise-cracking in lighter
moments in the practice Ses-
sions. and the boys who have
been called down have been TAX
ing it.
Trainer Duke Wyre, who didn't
see Faloney for a week, is opti-
miStic over Bernie's chances of
playing, but Tommy Mont. who
has been in charge Of Faloney's
workouts since he was hurt, is
pessimistic, like Tatum. Faloney's
non-commital.

drive Trabert back. but to no
avail.
Finally. in the final set, Rose
wall changed his tactics and
tried placements and volleys. It
stin was no use. At least in the
last set he managed to break
Tony's service in the seventh
game.
Trabert has q habit Of letting
up when he is far ahead. In the
first set, for example. he whipped
right into q SO lead before he
gave . little ground and per-
mitted Rosewall to win three
games In q row. In the second
set. Tony raced to q Al advan-
tage before Rosewall could find
himself to make q fight of it.
But If Trabert supplied good
news for the American camp,
Seixas did just the opposite. Be-
fore today Hoad never had won
a match from him. Instead of
Hoad being nervous - as he
should have been since it was his
debut in Davis Cup competition
it was Seixas who had a case
Of jitters.
Talbert Disappointed.
Talbert, naturally. was disap-
pointed at Seixas' showing.
"You have to give Hoad credit,
though" he said. HE played
marvellous tennis. He didn't let
Vic in the match after the first
game. Vic played well but it just
wasn't enough. He didn't serve
as well as we thought he might,
but Hoad would bave heen diff
f1cult to beat under any circum-
stances"
Talbert still wasn't conceding
the match to the Aussies. though.
It's like a horse race" he said.
"As long as you're even you've
got a chance to finish on top"
Like Trabert, Hoad broke his
opponents first service and that
for all intents and purposes was
the match. Seixas never did get
in it.
Hoad's Serve Rocks Vic.
Hoad showed a mighty can
nonball service and it rocked
Vic time and again. Before the
first set was over, Scixas was
standing 2 and 3 feet behind the
baSeline in his attempts to han
die it. But he couldn't and was
on the defensive from the first
stroke.
The only times in the match
Seixas was ahead came in the
third set when the games fol-
lowed service for a time. Seixas
was in front, 10, 2-1 and
80. But Hoad tied it, then
went on from there.
Even the first set which looked
close by the score. was all Hoad's.
After the Aussie youngster broke
through in the first game he
concentrated on holding his own
service. Eventually, the set SIM
ply ran out !
In the final analysis, if Seixas
had better control of his service,
it might have been closer. Vic
faulted continually on his first
attempt. His second was duck
soup for Hoad. a kid who can
take advantage of every break
offered him.
Hopman was happy over the
result although a bit disappoint-
ed over Rosewall's showing.
"The Hoad- -Seixas match was
the key for u.s." he said. That's
the one we wanted"
What with Rosewall's troubles,
it is possible that Hopman might
cwitch to Rex Hartwig in the
doubles or switch to team of
Hartwig and Mervyn Rose. He
has until an hour before the
match to decide.
