Va, Nov. 20.- Maryland’s Quarterback Jack Scarbath and Tackle Dick Modzelewski are still the top football players in the Southern Confer ence area despite the Terps’ 21–⁠14 loss last week to Mississippi.

Worrell was plucked from the rinky-dinks only last week and inserted into the lineup against South Carolina when John Gaylor was injured. He carried the ball nine times. picked up 100 yards and scored two teuchdowns. AS a result, North Carolina snapped an 11-game losing streak and defeated the Gamecocks, 27–⁠19. Worrell is a freshman. King was sensational, too. The 18-year-old youngster completed 13 of Is passes for 158 yards and one touchdown, even though Clemson dropped a 27–⁠14 battle to Kentucky. Alexander, like Worrell, sparkled in the game with South Carolina. Spencer, commenting on the game, said Alexander made ‘‘three out of five” tackles until he was hurt late in the fourth quarter.
