Eddie league. a Maryland as Sistant coach who secuted Wash ington and Lee in it’s warmup 47-O triumph over little Shepherd College last week, said the Generals have a good first team and about four subs. Tatum’s sermon this week has been that Washington and Lees first team is as good as Maryland’s, and this is no time for letup. Depth Helps Maryland. However, the Terps used 38 men in their 20–⁠6 triumph over Missouri last week and Tatum credited the depth of his squad for the 13 points in the final quarter. For three quarters it was a TO ball game with Mary land holding a shaky lead. The Generals dressed only 80 at home against Shepherd. T The Generals will show one of the finest centers in South ern football in Bill McHenry, 210-pound captain. Their line is big and experienced. In the backfield Coach Carl Wise leans heavily on Joe Lind sey, who improved in each game last year. In fact, in their final game the Generals had Virginia beaten for most of the game before losing, 21–⁠14. Lindsey is the Information quarterback and his coach is the skillfull Gil Bocetti, quarterback on W&L’ S Gator Bowl team of 1851. Giro Barcelona averaged 10 yards per try as a sophomore and gained 432 yards as junior. The halfbacks will be Eddie Lam dis. once sought by the Terps. and Warren Moody. Maryland’s only starting line up change from last week will be Bill Walker at end for the injured Tim Flynn. Bernie Faloney will start at quarterback but Tatum undoubtedly is hoping for an early lead to test Charley Boxhold under fire. Lynn Beightol is out with an injury. ! Chet Hanulak takes a 12.5 yards per play ball-carrying average against the Generals, thanks to a 61-yard touchdown dash against Missouri. However, Hanulak and Dick Nolan both were effective on their pet plays. John Irvine and Charlie Lat timer are a toSsup at center but Irvsne probably will start again
