PASSES NET FOUR TOUCHDOWNs

Defeat Terp Varsity
BY MERRELL WHITTLEsEY

The upstairs who will play
football for Maryland next fall
took a two touchdown lead ovel
the Alumni yesterday. but the
"old pros" outplatooned the var
sity IN the last half and won, 49,
IL. in Byrd Stadium.
| The biggest crowd to see the
fifth game in the Alumni Varsity
series, 11.700. turned out, and
nobody left until it was over be-
cause the Varsity was marching
desperately for that tying touch
down and extra point as the
game ended.
Four OF the five touchdowns
came on passes. two by Jack
Scarbath of the Redskins and
one each by next years quarter
backs. Frank Tamburello and
Lynn Beightol. The fifth was on
a one-yard slash by Chef Han
ulak of the pro-champion Cleve-
land Browns.
~ 1855 Club Impressive
Actually Coach Jim Tatum
probably never felt better In de-
feat because his 1855 club was
mighty impressive. It Is difficult
to evalHate the strength Of the
Alumni team but it had many
good football players, and even
though q few were on the pudgy
side. it should beat any college
team.
Actually the Varsity thought
it was robbed because Russell
Dennis, an end. took poor kick
off for n yards and what he
thought was a touchdown mid
way in the fourth period, but the
officials said he had been stopped
on the 30-yard line. Most people
thought it was a mighty quick
whistle.
The Varsity had a 1910 lead at
the end Of the first period, and
Alumni had the ball only three
times for six plays In that
stretch. After being stopped on
the 4-yard line. the Varsity came
back to score when Tamburello
made a beautiful fake and passed
down the middle to Tom Selep
for seven yards and a touchdown.
The Terps. with Beightol quar-
terbacking. came back IS yards
for q touchdown with Lynn lead
ing Dave Nusz nicely and then
him in the corner of the
end zone with an 18-yard touch
down pass.

NEW YORK, April 2 (P.-
Racing fans in the big town dis

Doge was correct. The unbeaten
little 3-year-old merely played
with nine rivals to hang up his

| It was the first New York
appearance for the Beantown

from the opposition.

The race drew another huge
crowd to Jamaica, and the
