In Bid for I'D Victory

Bob Porterfield will attempt
to apply an appropriate finish to
his most successful season to-
night when he opposes the Ath-
letics in the opener of a three
game series which will wind up
the Mats activity. The game
will be televised by Station

Porterfield, the only Washing
ton pitcher in 20 years to exceed
20 triumphs, will bid for his 22d
victory, his seventh straight and
his fourth without defeat against
Philadelphia.
The trim right-hander has
permitted the AS only three runs
in three games, twice blanking
them. Bob's only loss in his
last IL starts was to the Yankees
on August 20. That's his lone
defeat since July .16, when his
record was 1919.
Marion Fricano will pitch for

Mickey Vernon virtually is as

can win only by staging a spec
tacular finish, coupled with a
complete collapse by Vernon.
Both figure to bat about IL
times in their remaining games.
If Vernon should go hitless in IL
appearances he'd finish with a
.3289 average, but he'd still edge
RoSen if AL gets four hits in IL
tries. Rosen then would end
with a .3288 mark.

Maryland Favored

Maryland opens its most pre-

tomorrow afternoon. a f1ve-game
card that includes Georgia, Mis-
sissippi and Alabama. with
Washington and Lee playing at
College Park one year later than
originally scheduled.
The Generals were listed to
appear here last year, but that
was before Maryland was sus-
pended for year by the South
ern Conference for participating
in the 1852 Sugar Bowl game.
With WI remaining in the
Southern Conference and the
Terps members of the new
Atlantic Coast Conference, the
schools will not meet next year,
nor for many years under their
current setups. They have met
10 times in the past.
The forecast for warmer
weather gives Maryland's deeper
squad an even bigger advantage,
and the Terps figure to win by
about four touchdowns, although
Jim Tatum would shudder if he
heard anybody mention such
a margin.
More than 10000 are expected
for the 2 pm. kickoff in Byrd
Stadium, although the gate will
not be commensurate with the
