Maryland takes its two-game

per game when the Terps enter

Maryland fieldhouse at Sis
O'Clock tonight. The Terp Frosh
meet St. Francis Prep in a pre-

The Terps haven't lost and the

company. Maryland has beaten
Virginia and William and Mary
both unimpressively. while the
Deacons have lost to two nation

And Wake Forest outscored
both the ColonialS and the Wolf
pack from the floor. losing by
excessive fouling that is a result
OF their new style OF play.
Without All-American Jackie
Hemric, the Deacons switched
from a deliberate pivot style of
play to a fast-breaking, free
style type that causes them 20
commit more fouls. CIV scored
49 points on fouls and N. C,
State Sc in respective 1916
and 90-8l triumphs.
Eight Wake Forest players
have fouled out of two games,
while last year they lost only II
by fouls in the entire schedule.
Wake Forest does not figure to
score 83 points tonight against a
team as defense minded as
Maryland. but unless the Terps
are sharper than they have been.
the Deacons probably will score
enough to win.

PANCHO WINS IN FIVE SETS
Gonzales Rally Spells
Trobert's Debut as Pro

Pancho Gonzales, who turned
pro before he ever reached his
peak as an amateur, added a
convincing bit of evidence last
night as he set out to defend
mis- pro laurelS against Tony
Trabert in the opening match
of the 1856 tour. Two sets
down after a brilliant start by
the Wimbledon, French ano
United States champion, Con-
zales pulled out'the match, ell
3-6, 6-3. 60. 60.
Then as a clincher, Pancho
Segura, Oldest and most enter
tanning of the pros. took a 60
set from another newcomer, Rex
Hartwig of Australia, and the
two Panchos combined to win an
I8-6 doubles set from Trabert
and Hartwig.
The outcome wasn't discour-
aging to Promoter Jack Kramer
who almost overwhelmed Con
zales in the early matches Of
the 1851 pro series.
"Trabert slowed down sudden
ly; I don't know whether he
got tired, got a cramp or what,
Kramer said. But l think he'll
do very well In the long run
There are a few tough things
to overcome when new player

Tony will have any trouble"
Trabert definitely slowed down
Even at the start he couldn't
match the blazing speed an6
power of some of Gonzales shots

But after the second set, he
couldn't make his first service
count. He couldn't score with
