Maryland Facts for 1948
PRESS, RADIO. TELEVISION
AND MAGAZINE ACCOMMODATIONS
Compiled and Edited by George L. Carroll
"With grateful appreciation to Mr. Bill Hottel for his wonderful aid"
All home games of tke University of Maryland will be
played at Griffith Stadium, Washington, D. C., in 1948. This
move was necessary because of the limited facilities of Byrd
Stadium in College Park and because of the fact that the pro-
posed new stadium will not be ready until the season of 1949.
This year, the University will realize the largest student body in
all its history when some 11,000 men and women take advantage
of the excellent learning facilities of this beautiful and historic
school.
Maryland will make every effort to provide press facilities for
each and every publication, AM, FM and Video, wishing to
cover the games. (Contractual understandings will sometimes
enter, when dealing with radio and television). We will en-
deavor to give the needed working press, photographers, etc.
tickets, upon your request to the Athletic Publicity Office, College
Park, Md. Writh regards to any other needed tickets for your
staff, we, in turn shall be appreciative if you will limit your de-
mands, the best way you can.
Griffith Stadium has two football press boxes. They are
situated very well and afford an excellent view of the game. If
requested, we shall provide a telegrapher for you and runners in
the press box to handle your copy. Please let us know if you
intend to do a play-by-play or after-game file. We are in constant
check with the Western Union Office and work according to your
request.
In the Press Box a loud speaker is provided where a com-
petent announcer will keep you abreast of happenings. He will
have two competent spotters at his side and speak into the
mike, " not with a great flow of words but in such a chosen and
to-the-point few, that he will not antagonize the working press.
Accurate statistics will be provided at the conclusion of the
PAGE FIVE
first half and within 3 minutes after the game is completed. You
will be provided with an official program, any new number
changes of both teams, injury lists, hot and cold drinks, sand-
wiches and blank forms for statistical summaries.
Please do not hesitate to ask questions at any time, for it is
our pleasure to make every effort to obtain an answer for you, as
quickly as possible.

Terrapins Football Coaching Staff
HEAD COACH: JIM TATUM (Sunny Jim,
Gloomy Jim): graduated from North Caro-
lina U. where he was an All-Southern Con-
ference tackle. Has had 13 years experience
as a coach. Mentored Oklahoma before
coming to Terptown in 1947. A resident of

named top Conference coach by the South-
ern Conference Sportwriters Assoc, and re-
ceived the honor of the "Top Coach in the
Country" from the Touchdown Club, Wash-
ington, D. C.
GEORGE T. BARCLAY: played on same
team with Tatum at North Carolina and
became the first All-American that the Tar-
heels ever had (guard). Considered one of
the best line coaches in the country today.
He served at Dartmouth and VMI before
coming to Maryland. Married, has two
girls.
HOUSTON ELDER: beginning his second

ing staff. Was an All-Southern Conference
back with the Terps and an All-American
Lacrosse player. Played pro ball with the
Washington Redskins. Married, no children.
PAGE FOURTEEN
AL WOODS: another Maryland grad;
termed by Dr. Byrd as the greatest blocking

championship Marine team in 1929. Has
had a hand in Terp football for quite a few
years. Married, no children.

The Outlook for '48
"THOUGHTS OF THE STAFF"
QUARTERBACKS: Vic Turyn, Joe Tucker, Jack Targarona* — 3
"T's" with the split-T who should be right on the beam . . . Turyn,
perhaps one of the best T-formation signal callers, has two stellar
assistants in Tucker and Targarona . . . Stati Levine, another QB,
who saw little action last season, will likewise be on hand. Turyn
was second team All Southern Conference last season, President of
Senior Class.
RIGHT HALFBACKS: Lucien A. (Lu) Gambino heads the list as
Maryland's All-American candidate. He scored 114 points last year,
received numerous first team and other mentions as an all-star. The
back to watch in '48, he'll be a triple threat man this season. Used
sparingly on defense last year, he'll see a lot of action in that post,
along with passing and punting . . . Jimmy LaRue, who played more
minutes per game last year than any other Terp back, is in the num-
ber two RHB post. A brainy footballer, he once played for Duke in
the Sugar Bowl, and excels on offense and defense . . . Bernie Sniscak
and Joe Kuchta will be moving into the limelight on this post. Both
are small but fast; in fact some say Sniscak is swifter afoot than
Gambino.
PAGE SIXTEEN
LEFT HALFBACKS: Hubie Werner, shifty-hip ball toter, will be
an excellent running mate for Gamboling Lu. Out injured after the
third game last season, he's now in shape and great things are pre-
dicted for shifty-Hubert . . . Johnny "Josh" Idzik, who played tip-top
ball especially in the safety spot last season, is a great little back.
He'll be vieing with Vern Seibert and John Baroni for a place on the
LHB contingent.
FULLBACKS: Harry Bonk, whom Coach Tatum tabs "The best
blocking back in the business," is back as a grad student. He has
another year of eligibility and under conference rules is permitted
to play . . . Earl Roth, offense back and punter extraordinary, who
averaged some 41 yards per boot last year, and who will do some ball
carrying this season, was the most improved man in spring practice
. . . Bob Andrus, another improvee, who joined the staff late in '47 . . .
Bob Roulette and Dave Cianelli, two newcomers on the varsity squad,
will round out the plunging fullbacks. All in all, the backfield out-
look is somewhat bright . . . we're predicting great things for them
this season . . . let's hope these predicts come true.
LEFT ENDS: Elmer Wingate looms as the successor to George
Simler in this post. He's big, fast and in his frosh debut last season
collected a few td's . . . backing him up will be John Troha, tabbed
the best-looking lad on the squad in features, and a possible dark
horse in playing ability for this year . . . Jim Moeller, who missed
spring practice while playing baseball for the Terps, and Bill Copper-
thite will be vieing for pass-snatching honors also.
RIGHT ENDS: Francis "Scoop" Evans' greatest ambition this
year will be to snare a scoring pass. In his two years as first-string
starter, he hasn't had any such luck but he's consistent and aggressive
and we hope he gets his wish this last season for him ... Fred Davis:,
another lankster, will be backing the "scoop" up in assignments with
Pete Augusburger and Hank Nary following closely on his heels . . .
LEFT TACKLES: Ray Krouse, one of the greatest tackles in
collegiate ranks today, is our pride and joy on the line. He'll be a
surefire to watch, had a great frosh year in '47 . . . Jim Molster, a
soph this year, very much improved in spring practice and a ready
asset for filling in very well . . . Eddie O'Connor, a GI frosh, on hand
for the first time, big and rough, might be a fine prospect . . . Marv
Kramer, right good on the junior varsity last year, we're looking for
a lot from him and Rudy Gayzur, a soph who. with his added weight
will be a big bulwark.
RIGHT TACKLES: Jim Goodman, largest man on the squad, who
had a good season last year will be harassed for his post bv Chester
Giorula and Ed Pobiak both of whom saw a fair amount of action last
year. Pobiak is another JV'er who'll be very helpful at his post.
RIGHT GUARDS : Paul Broglio, kick-off artist, will be winding up
his career. He's a consistent player, rough and ready at all times . . .
Ed Schwarz, another post-grad student along with Bonk, is on hand
and will alternate with the "Brog" in that post . . . Bob Dean, another
lad who moved up from Bill Meek's JV outfit, looked impressive in
spring practice . . . Ray Bender will be trying his wares this fall.
He's a frosh serviceman, and from previous reports of his work may
fit into the picture quite well.
PAGE SEVENTEEN
LEFT GUARDS: "Big" Al Phillips, the lad whom the Terps call
the "Bull," is finishing out his career. He was a starter last year and
should hold his own, but at the same time being hard-pressed by
Tommy McHugh, our extra point specialist, much heavier and im-
proved . . . Backing these men up will be Tom McQuade, the son of a
former Maryland grid great, and Bob Ward, erstwhile possibility, who
is a returning GI.
CENTERS: Headed by Gene "Red-haid" Kinney, elected team
captain and backed up with dependability. With Jimmy Brasher, the
Texan, and Jake Rowden, the Arizonian, alternating, the "big-red"
has a lot of help. These three lads will probably see a lot of action
backing up the line . . . Two other dependables will be Bill Everson
and Ed Fincke. Both are comers and we're depending on them.
THE NEW LOOK, FRESHMAN FOOTBALL
The Terps will field for the first time this year a freshman foot-
ball team. Director of Athletics Jim Tatum has appointed Bill Meek
as head mentor. Meek, who led the Junior Varsity to a 6 win and 2
loss record last season has an important job ahead of him. His duty
is to instill in the new Old Line prospects the split-T that they'll
embody in their four years of sport at the University of Maryland.
Coach Meek intends to start his fall practice grind around
September 20. Just who or how many men will answer his first call
is hard to say. Anyone in the incoming freshman class is entitled to
participate in the grid doings.
Jim Tatum once remarked: "I think that the frosh or JV units
in the football program of any school are most important. It's here,
where in a certain sense, to use an old adage, the football men are
separated from the football boys." He added: "In Bill Meek taking
over these reins, I feel that we have a young coach thoroughly capable
of doing a great teaching job, for that is just what it is, teaching our
system."
With a five game schedule planned, the junior Terps will play
three tilts at home and two on the road. The opener will be against
Western Maryland frosh at College Park on October 8. The following
Friday they'll meet Georgetown frosh away. The final game of the
season will be played against the University of West Virginia fresh-
men at Cumberland, Md. on Nov. 18.
The schedule is as follows:
Oct. 8 — Western Maryland at College Park
Oct. 15 — Georgetown, away
Oct. 22 — George Washington at College Park
Nov. 12— Fort Meade at College Park
Nov. 18 — West Virginia at Cumberland, Md.
