Terps Will Try 10 GET
Jump Tomorrow in
Clash With Deacons


Maryland's football team hopes
to get an early Jump over Wake
Forest tomorrow at Winston
Salem, future home Of the Dea-
cons, and go on from there to
a substantial victory in its first
Atlantic Coast Conference game
of 1854.
The pattern Of three Wake
Forest games this year indicates
that the team making the first
touchdown goes on to win. The
Deacons got the Jump on George
Washington and North Carolina
State to win those two games.
but bowed to Virginia Tech when
the latter scored first.
The Terrapins, hoping to
bounce back from last weeks
1877 loss to UCLA, left by plane
this morning and made their
headquarters at the Robert E. Lee
hotel in Winston-Salem. They
are rated two or three touch
downs better than the Deacons,
and with the right breaks could
win by a larger margin.
Terps Make Changes.
With two games under their
belts-they beat Kentucky, 300,
in their opener-the Terrapins
have had time to make few
changes in the lineup. Jack
Bowersox, a 200-pound senior
from Westminster, Md, has a
cut leg received at UCLA that
will keep him from his usual
starting position at left guard,
with Bob Pelligrini moving up.
BowerSox is making the trip,
however. and figures to see a
lot Of action.
Dick Shipley will start at left
tackle in place Of Ray Black
burn, shifted over to right tackle
to take the place of Tom Breu-
Mich, who dropped football this
week. Don Brougher and John
Irvine both are listed at center.
depending on whether Maryland
kicks off or receives. If the Terps
kick, it will be Irvine, while
Brougher will take over If the
team goes on the offensive right
away.
In addition to Bowersox, two
other Marylanders have injuries
that figure in the teams playing
plans. Tom McLuckie, No. l re-
placement for George Palahunik
at right guard has a bruised hip.
and while Tom is making the
trip, Jack Davis, speedy 190-
pound sophomore from Bladens-
burg, may get the call ahead OF
him.
George Albrecht, understudy
for Dick Bielski at fullback, is
on the travelling squad, but may
not be able to play. Just in
case he isn't Coach Jim Tatum
is taking two other fullbacks
along, Bill Kolomo and Jim
Skarda, both sophomoreS.
No Changes in Attack.
Practices at College Park this
week indicated no radical
changes in Maryland's attack
plans. Charley Boxhold, the
senior quarterback, and Frank
Tamburello. his sophomore
understudy, have been running
the team about half-and-half.
Boxold has the better passing
and running average, while
Tamburello is considered slightly
better on rushing defense be-
cause of his tackling ability.
Two of Boxold's passes have
gone for touchdowns, while Tam
burello hasn't connected in the
four passes he's thrown.
Halfback Ronnie Waller ap-
parently has recovered from a
bruised hip received against
UCLA and is listed to go at left
halfback. The Terrapins need
him there, as he is the teams
leader both in rushing yardage,
102, and in average yards per
carry, Sc.
In meeting Wake Forest, the
Terrapins go against a school
that has a good first team. but
not much depth, and that lack
of depth weighs heavily in Mary
lands favor. Bill Barnes and
Burt Harrison, Wake Forests
starting halfbacks, both are fast
runners and good pass receivers.
Several fine players operate in
the Deacon line, notably Tackle
Bob Bartholomew, Center Joe
Dupree and End Ed Showers.
At quarterback. the Deacons
alternate Joe White, a senior,
and Nick Consoles, a Junior.
whose passing ability threatens
to move White off the starting
team.
