Cadets in Best Shape Of Season
BIoik Admits Army Will Use
New Tactics Against Middies

Blaik said he expects a real
battle. Navy Is a much better
team than a year ago." he de-
clared. "Its record indicates it.
They have far more poise, better
direction from a good quarter
back, excellent speed In the
backfeld and two splendid lines
that are about even."
The final Army workout yes
terday was in the rain. The
Cadets made no bones about
hoping for a dry field Saturday.
Blaik said he thought rain
and mud would hurt Army more
than Navy because the Cadets
depend upon a quicker getaway.

While no gold-studded bowl
bids awaited the winner. the
61st meeting between Cornell
and Penn at Philadelphia today
was perhaps the most important
game of the season for the Big
Red from Lake Cayuga.
A Cornell victory would en-
able the Ithaca, N. Y, team to
tie Yale for the mythical Ivy
League football title. Cornell
was favored by two touchdowns.
This was the most ancient
grid rivalry of Thanksgiving Day.
Actually, there were few college
football games, but one big pro.
league game was on tap. along
with some horse racing, a full
slate in the National Hockey
League and four games in the
National Basketball Association.

Maryland Tries
For III Mark
In " Contest
Result Will Affect
Close ACC Vote for
By MerrelI Whittlesey

o01A AA1AS ola OIdllSc DOWl U1Q,
Maryland football fans will say
farewell to IS seniors and a team
that fell just a shade below ex-
pectations when the Terps meet
Missouri at 2 O'Clock this after
noon in Byrd Stadium.
Maryland is rated two-touch-
down favorite. Partly cloudy
weather is expected. with the
temperature in the mid-forties.
The game will be televised ma
tionally by ABC, including Wash
ington's WMAL-TV.
The television audience doubt
less will include the Nebraska
players and coaches. who will
meet either the Terps or Duke
in Miami January !. Nebraska
has won the Big Seven Confer
ence bid as runnerup-with
champion Oklahoma ineligible.
Players Dads HOnored.
The live audience is not ex-
pected to top 10000, despite bar
gain prices to high school stu
dents and servicemen. Fathers
of the football players were to
wear numbers corresponding to
those worn by their sons, and
were to be introduced.
A victory today will give the
Terps a 7-2-1 record for the
season, which could be matched
by Duke If the Blue Devils beat
North Carolina Saturday after
noon in Chapel Hill. Atlantic
Coast Conference member schools
will be polled either Saturday
night or Sunday by jim Weaver,
conference commissioner, as to
their choice for the bowl.
Close Vote Likely.
Both Maryland and Duke have
their friends in the conference,
and going into today's game it
appears the voting will be ex-
tremely close, possibly a tie at
3-3.
Outstanding on the list of
Terps making their last appear
ance--at least at home-are
Ronnie Waller. flashy halfback
who may be Maryland's top pro
prospect. and the co-captains.
John Irvine at center and Dick
Bielski at fullback. All three
appear headed for All-Confer-
ence honors.
Charley Boxold is the only
quarterback who will graduate.
The other losses will be Joe
Horning at halfback: Gus Al.
brecht at fullback; Dick Shipley
and Ralph Baierl at tackle; Tom
McLuckie, John Bowersox and
George Palahunik at guard and
the other two centers, Don
Brougher and Rip O'Donnell.
These players are from a club
that Coach Jim Tatum said
would lose two and possibly three
games. but too few people be-
Ieved him. Defeat by undefeat-
ed UCLA and once-beaten Miami
was not hard to take, but the
Wake Forest tie hurt. Without
1t Maryland probably already
would have been named to the
Orange Bowl.
The Terps take a much better
defensive record than Duke into
today's game, having given up
only Sd points to 142 by the Blue
Devils. whose record is not helped
by that 40-7 trouncing by Navy.
Fifth Game Of Series.
This is the fifth meeting be-
tween the Terps and Tigers in
what will be a continuous series
as long as Jim Tatum is at Mary
land and Don Faurot at Missouri.
The teams play at Columbia, Mo-,
September II, 1855. Maryland
has won the four previous games.
Missouri has a ALL record.
It's only bad defeat came at the
hands Of Purdue in the first
game Of the season. The Tigers
most impressive victories were
over Indiana and Kansas State.

His forecast was in line with that

leaders. They said they anticipated
passage by substantial margin. ="
The House, meeting two hours
earlier than usual, was expected to
speed the bill through without
delay.
The only stumbling block toward
final passage in the House-and its
possibilities were minimized by
seaway proponents-was an amend
ment written by Rep. Brownson
(R-Ind).
Brownson planned to propose
that the 105-million-dollar Ameri-
can share of the waterways con-
struction be met through sale of
revenue bonds to the public rather
than by the Treasury as proposed
in the bill.
The key vote probably will come

Revolt Reports Trickle Out OF Paraguay

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina R--
Paraguay was blanketed under
official silence today, but unofficial
reports trickled out that army ele-
ments had staged revolt against
President Federico Chaves' re-
gime. It was unelear who held
control. stilen7a
Government radio stations in
Asuncion, the Paraguayan capital,
remained off the air, but private
sources gave carrying accounts of
the revolt which apparently broke
out yesterday.
A private radio station said loyal
government forces succeeded in
quelling the revolt. It added that
Police Chief L. Petit was killed
in the fighting.
An account from Clorinda, on
the Argentine side of the Para
guayan border across from Asun-
cion, said the insurgents held the
capital. It said Chaves and his
ministers had taken refuge in
Asuncion's military academy after
the rebels seized control OF COM
munications.
The Clorinda report said the
rebels had set up a three-man
government in the capital.
Other reports said several gov
eminent leaders were killed in
fighting yesterday including Gen.
Alfredo Stroesner, commander of
Paraguay's armed forces.
These reports said a cavalry di.
vision, about 500 men, had spanked
the revolt and that loyal troops
and police had rallied to Chaves'
defense.
Paraguay had enjoyed relative
calm since 1850. There have been
reports of harsh government meas
ures against political opponents.
ChaveS, "a, took over as pro-
visional president in September
1s49 after topping Felipe Molas
Lopez in bloodless coup. Chaves'
rise stemmed from discord in the
ruling Colorado party, Paraguay's
only legal party, in which he led
the democratic faction.
Chaves was confirmed in office
in 1850 elections in which he was
the only candidate. His 1949 take
over had been the sixth admins
tration change through revolt or
blo0dlesS coup in II months.
