second down and goal on the
Ohio Vineyard line.
A pass play with a fine right
end making a great catch and
run moved the ball rs yards to

the Broncos made one yard with
an off -tackle slant.
The Borncos have made only

Since then Ohio has plugged

Class and Power Tell
In Troy's 6th-Round
Kayo Of Thompson

The story on last nights fight
at Turner's Arena is that Willie
Troy had too much class and
power for Tommy Thompson.
It was a good fast fight as
long as it lasted, with Thompson
shooting for a knockout all the
way until. he himself was
/ punched almost helpless. Referee
Marty Gallagher saved him from
further punishment py stopping
1t after Al seconds of the sixth
round.
There was not the expected
weight difference, with Troy
generally a middleweight, scaling
the heaviest of his career at
1641a. Thompson. a light-heavy-
weight from Quantico, was
lighter than usual at 1863.
The bout served as good
warmup for Troy who is sched-
uled to fight Floyd Patterson
ranking light heavyweight, on
television from New York Nov
amber 10.
The crowd Of 2,451, some OF
whom came out to see Heavy
weight Champion Rocky Marci-
ano referee two of the prelimi-
naries, was treated to a really
good brawl. Troy and Thomp-
son traded punches willingly all
the way, and Troy gave an in
dication of how the fight was to
go by dropping Thompson for a
nine-count In the first round
with a stiff right to the head.
Thompson refused to duck and
run after that, however, and in
the third seemed well on the way
to turning the tide. He con-
nected with q left to the body
and a cross to the head that
drove Troy back into the ropes.
The Keeling Troy went into a
crouch and boxed his way out Of
this trouble. and when he was
able to. come back strongly by
the end Of the third, it seemed
| only q question Of how long
Thompson would last.
Thompson had fought himself
out trying to catch Troy in the
third, and Willie really took over
thereafter, driving Thompson
around the ring with attacks
that ranged everywhere from the
middle to his head. DIR. Clark
Halstead. the boxing commits
sion physician. was called into
the ring to examine Thompson
between the fifth and sixth
rounds, and he told Referee Gal
lagher to stop 1t If Thompson
didn't defend himself ably in the
sixth.

North Carolina State, Mary
lands opponent Saturday after
noon in Byrd Stadium. brings
many memories to Coach Jim
Tatum-most of 'em bad.
The Wolfpack has logged
Tatunn since his collegiate days.
It was against N. C. State that
Jim suffered his first football
injury, the first big disappoint-
ment of his coaching career. and
the most astounding defeat of
his eight years at Maryland.
It's no wonder that Jim shud-
ders at what might happen on
Maryland's Homecoming Day if
this jinx should continue.
It all started in Tatum's senior
year at the University of North
Carolina. Carolina was a heavy
favorite over it's rival from Ra-
leigh, and Big Jim was about to
close out a college career with
out an injury.
But he was knocked uncon-
scious in the N. c. State game,
suffered a broken nose, and the
Tar Heels were tied, TT.
Scuttled Again by State.
Jim's next contact with State
was when he coached the North
Carolina freshmen. North Caro-
lima beat all the teams that
beat North Carolina State, but
State beat Carolina.
Tatum was named head coach
at Carolina in 1912, taking over
after a ST season. That year
North Carolina wasn't supposed
to beat anybody. But the Tar
Heels opened by beating favored
Wake Forest, and then they beat
favored South Carolina. The
next opponent was Fordham,
which had beaten the Tar Heels
six straight years, and later that
season was to play in the
Sugar Bowl. Carolina tied the
Rams, 90.
The Tar Heels went to New
Orleans and lost by 29-14 to a
good Tulane team, and then
upset Duquesne. which had won
rs straight games, 1875. The
Tar Heels were supposed to lose

Officials at Luurel
Expect 1000 Funs
As Weather Improve.
By Lewis r. Atchison

Seven hand-picked thorough
breds, among them Queen Eliz-
abeth's Landau. were ready to
battle 1t out today in the third
running Of the $65.000 Washing
ton, D. G. International at
| Laurel.
Favored by sunny but windy
and colder weather, after an
earlier threat of snow hurries,
Laurel officials hoped for a turn
out of more than 10000 for the
mile-and-one-half race on grass
that will bring five of the top
European horses against two
| American representatives. alter
mates for the original choices,
High Gun and Determine.
With High Gun out. it was
likely that either Banassa, one
of the two French starters, or
American-bred Fisherman,
would be the favorite, possibly
at about 3 to /.
Gates opened at $3.50 am. and
post-time for the first race was
moved up to pm, a half hour
earlier than usual. Flag-raising
ceremonies were to begin at
1890, with the Fort George
Meade band supplying the music.
The feature race, seventh on
the program, was scheduled for
approximately 4:15. It was not
to be televised or broadcast.
Landau Sure to Run.
The field remained intact
overnight, after unfounded
rumors were heard late yester-
day that Landau would be with
drawn because of bad hind heels.
It was recalled that Trainer c. F.
(NoeD Murless had wanted to
decline the invitation to the In
ternational following the colts
last race at New Market, but
one English writer over here
for the race indicated Landau
will start if he has to run on
three legs.
"The Queen sent Murless a
telegram at Newmarket" said
Give Graham, telling him that
if Laurel Park was kind enough
to invite the horse we should be
gracious enough to accept and
not decline simply because the
horses chances of winning were
not good."
The two English horses, Lam
dau and Frank w. Dennis King
Of the Tudors drew the favored
inside post positions yesterday.
The inside places are regarded
as preferable because of the
short run to the first turn on the
sharp-cornered inf1eld course.
Winners of the first two Inter-
nationals, Robert Boucher's Will
wyn of England and Ralph B.
Strassburger's Worden II of
France, both started from the
No. / post.
Railbirds Like Banassa.
Neither Landau nor King of
the Tudors likes an off track,
which means that the English
pair will have their task cut
out for them today as the recent
rains have left their mark.
Most of those who have
watched preparations for the race
favor the French team of Julien
Decrion's Banassa. in No. s post,
and Ernest Masurel's Norman,
who will leave from No. 7. Banas-
sa appeared to be the better Of
the two in workouts and off her
recent races, but the 6-year-old
Norman likes the course and his
English trainer, John Cunning
ton. expects him to "go along"
with the rest.
Norman probably is the most
international" horse in the race,
having Belgian jockey in Jack
Hoogaert, an English trainer
and a French owner.

AS these lines were written, however, it

the end of the third running. And If the
worst were to happen today, fie on apologists
who direct attention to the fact that our
best may have been sitting on the bench.
This is weak out, If indeed an out at
