Maryland Freshmen Playing
Mexico City Game Friday

Saturday for its fourth straight
victory this season. officials Of
the Mexican school advised
Maryland in a long-distance tele.
phone call today.
The game originally was
scheduled for Saturday after
noon, but was shifted to Friday
might to avoid a conflict with the
game Mexico University is play
ing Saturday afternoon.
Any idea that Dovell had
about preparing his team just
for this game was dispelled BY
Coach Jim Tatum. who yester-
day told Doyell the freshmen
would be needed to scrimmage
the Maryland varsity today and
tomorrow.
Mont said the Mexico Poly
team might be a slight fayorite
over the Terp Frosh. The Mexi-
cans have been winning against
Junior college teams in Texas
and California the last three
seasons.
The team has seen Maryland
play twice against UCLA last
year and Miami the year before.
And the teams most valuable
player saw Maryland and Okla

years ago.
Dovell has found 1t relatively
easy to get the Terp Frosh to
work hard this season. because
the 20 berths on the trip have
been open since the first prac-
|tice. The boys who are going
have been notified now because
lit was necessary for them to OBJ

lean Embassy.
Maryland's Freshmen opened

Never saw mosquitoes so bad

the recent heat wave. This is es-
pecially true in the Lewes-Reho-

certain other localities. where the
State Highway Departments con-
troll operations usually reduce these
pests below the annoyance-point.
Don't blame that agency; the
June rains, which did SO much for
Delaware's crops, are directly re-

period last year, the tally was 43.
The accident was the most seri-
GUS of a number reported in this
