Trouble Friday
Nv GEORGE HUBER

The Boston University foot
ball team coming here for FRI
day nights game against George
Washington at Grifhth Sta
dunn is an explosive one. ac-
cording 10 Bill Neal. the CIV
assistant coach who has been
scouting the Terriers.
The Terriers showed what

beating favored Holy Cross. IS
%. with one player. John Majo.
scoring four touchdowns. That
gave them a record Of three
wins. plus losses TO Syracuse
and West Virginia.
Only the West Virginia de-
feat was a bad one. and 1t came
at a time when the Terriers
were shot through with injuries
and illnesses. such as have
plagued CIV recently.
Threat at Any Spot
According TO Meals scouting
report. BUS team Is a threat to
break loose and score from any
place on the field. One of
Maio's touchdowns was on
an 83-yard punt return and
another was on a 23-yard run.
Maio is a 5-foot-ll. l80-
pound junior. The Terriers
themselves brag that he is fast.
elusive and tough TO bring
down.
Another Of their running
stars Is a l9-year-old sopho-
more. Paul Tank Cancro.
He's the scatback type. despite
his Tank" nickname. standing
only 5-foot-s and weighing
ITO pounds. The people in Bos-
ton confidently expect him to
be the rookie Of the year among
New England football players.
He broke the school scoring
record with six touchdowns for
freshman football last year.
Tie Breaking Run
Until Maio came along with
his S3-yard punt return for a
touchdown last week, Cancro
had the longest play OF the
season with a 62-yard punt
run back against Syracuse.
Maio's record didn't last out
the game because in the fourth
period Cancro got back with
95-yard punt return for the
touchdown that broke a 2i-21
tie.
Meals overall report of the
Boston team Is that 1t is two

thing that will give 1t an adj
vantage over the Colonials FRI
