5 Of First 8 Maryland Backs
On IniuryListfo CIV Game
Series Pattern
Says Weather Is
Sure to Be Off
BY GEORGE HUBER

1t might rain Saturday. Or
even snow. Or possibly they'll
come up with a nice. hot summer
day.
It's the day of the George
Washington Maryland football
game at College Park, and in
recent years this game has been
played in everything except clear,
crisp fall weather.
Last year it was raining and
cold. The year before they
played in that cold damp weather
following the big snow. There
was no 1852 game. but in 81
the temperature at Byrd Sta
dunn was SO degrees and players
wilted all over the place. And it
rained in 1850.
The pattern set by GW-Mary-
land games in the postwar series
it's likely that the Coz
lonials will score at least once.
and that they'll use a pass to do
it. Despite the emphasis Coach
Jim Tatum at Maryland puts on
defense, his Terrapins have been
able to shut out the ColonialS
only once-in 1949 when they
started playing each other again.
George Washington isn't an
outstanding passing team this
year, but it does have the air
weapon as a threat and its COM
pletion' percentage Is slightly
higher than that Of opponents.
Only one CIV touchdown has
gone through the air-against
Pennsylvania-but it's likely the
Colonials will find 1t necessary
to shoot more passes than usual
against Maryland Saturday.
In recent years the Colonials
have found the airways the best
way Of scoring against the Ter
rapins. Last year, for example.
they got their only touchdown
when Arnie Tranen' hit Mike
Sommer in the end zone. The
only 1858 score also was on q
pass from Halfback Bill Weaver
who still is with the Colonials
to End Richie Gaskell.
Little Bino Barreira plunged
for the lone 1851 score and
Fred Samuelson did likewise the
year before that. This Samuel
son score, however, was set up
by q long pass from Andy Davis.
