(Doc) Spcnrs, will resemble professional wrestling match you won't know what to expect until the boys go into their act.

To emphasize (he point, the ro- tinicl doctor who clinic to the University of Mrayland the other day to look over his new coaching setup attended a dinner to greet a husky grid gang that will be prominently absent when fall football practice starts. In other words, Spears practically presided over a farewell at fair for the remnants of the Maryland squad that won seven and lost but two game last year for Clark Shaughncssy, who has taken his formation to the University of Pittsburgh. When the pigskins start sailing Ihroiiiih the zone next fall every member of Maryland's squad is expected to be in the armed services. That leaves Maryland these alternatives: Wail until the Frosh come fresh from high school; Try to tie up your school with any army training program and hope the brass hats will be as liberal as the Navy in its sport policy; Or lo football and other intercollegiate sports out for the duration. Maryland i.s banking on its new army program, that will sec many officer candidates on hand by football lime, plus incoming freshmen who'll have to grow big, fast and smart between now and their 18th birthdays.

Spears hopes there will be a gri- windfall in the Army training program, but says the situation has yet to be clarified.

No. 1 Fan One reason why all good ball nlaycrs seem to wind up at the Norfolk Naval Station is Capt. H. A. McClurc, commanding officer at the base.

Japanese snipers, malaria and mosquitoes aren't the only things that trouble the marines in the South Pacific. Captain Francis Orgain, of the United States Marines, who came home on a furlough, said the Marines have two other pel strikes and zoot suits. "The reaction to strikes was rabid enough," Organ said, "but a magazine or newspaper shot of a zoot-suiled lad would set off a marine's temper every time."

Schuessler and Veverka Plan to Do Some Hurling Atlanta, April 7 If they can dazzle opposing batters with the same skill they're displaying in helping lo strike out the Axis, two veteran pitchers are going to be mighty important men around the Southern Association this year.

ATTACK CHAPTER III HEN the new moon was high in the black, star-gleaming sky they rode in the small, rocking tender back to the freighter. The three men drifted off to their cabins, leaving Allison with prize she had worked so hard to capture. When they had gone, she lost some her gay sang-froid.

She dug a hand into the deep pocket of her light wrap for cigarets. As he lit it for her, she glanced up at his lean brown face and dark, steady eyes. She sighed a tiny sigh and blew a smoke ring. "I suppose," she said faintly, "it's an apology, not a kiss you're waiting lor." Barry chuckled in spite of himself. He lit his own cigaret leisurely and flicked out the match.

The warm night breeze brushed it along the deck. "As a matter of fact, it was neither," he said. Her upturned face was a heart- shaped blur in the darkness. "A walk, maybe?" She moved off along the rail, a fragile figure against the black silhouetted mountains of Cuba which loomed behind her. Barry followed.

"Are you going back ashore?" he demanded. "You I giving up my jungle dream?" she murmured blandly. "Going back to New York just because of a few words of warning you gave me the night we sailed? No." He said, "I think you'd better reconsider. I'm you, a Guatemala chicle plantation is no place for you." The teasing laughter in her voice was plain now. "Maybe," she said archly, "if you had spent more time describing the horrors of the jungle to me on the Mp down, and less time with your'ftla Quiche books.

As it is, you fascinate me almost as much as Guatemala. I can't decide whether it's because of the jealous girl who brought you aboard and practically dared me to Her voice broke off into laughter. "I suppose I owe you an. apology for her, too." "You can settle that with LUa," Barry said dryly. "The problem now "Or whether," Allison mused on imperturbably, "you fascinate me because you're so aloof and mysterious.

Why under heaven would you be so intent on histories of the Quiche Indians? If you were an archeologist, or a professor, or even a student. But you're a mining engineer!" no mystery about it," Barry exploded impatiently. "It's a matter of simple business. Look. I'll make a bargain with you.

My business is on the confidential side. But I'll tell you about it if you'll forget this crazy adventure of yours and take a plane home from Santiago tonight." "If you'll tell me," Allison said breathlessly, "I promise you I'll consider going home." There was a new note of seriousness in her voice and Barry accepted it as oath. He told her his business with casual speed. "My company sent me down here because the United Nations war effort is in vital need of quicksilver. It's used in a hundred delicate instruments of warfare.

The Guatemala highlands are one of the all too few sources. And on the Guatemala highlands live the Quiche Indians. Catch?" "Catch," laughed the girl. Then she frowned. "But why the history books? Need you get so chummy with them just to work a few mines?" "There's the rub," admitted Barry.

"We don't work the mines. We don't know where the mines are. The Indians bring their crushed and vaporized cinnabar down to the shore in clay jugs and trade it for bananas and fishing rights. But where they get it is a tribal secret." Allison gasped. "And you said it was 'just business! 1 It sounds like something out of Ali Baba!" "It's a hell of a deal," Barry said irritably.

"When we need that quicksilver the way we do and we're willing to pay plenty for She laughed with delight. "That blood oath of theirs in your books! They can't really be tempted by high prices?" "Apparently theyjiaven't been, since the time of Alvarado," Barry admitted gloomily. "Then you're on a wild goose chase yourself," she said triumphantly. "I'm not so sure." He thrummed nervous fingers on the rail. "In all this boning up on their traditions, I think I've got an argument to use on them.

They're pretty high class, you know. Integrity. You can't help them. That's their strength. But I'm going to ask them to help us." "And why should they help us?" "Because the allies are fighting for the same thing they've struggled to hold for centuries.

Freedom. Independence. We're their blood brothers in those respects. I'm going to try to make them see that. I have a feeling they might open up at least a couple of their mines for rapid exploitation in such a cause." Allison touched her cigaret to the rail and watched the sparks float down towards the dark swells of water.

She murmured, "Brother, you're talking strong stuff." laughed, regretting now he'd told her so much and been so eloquent about it. He said lightly to cover his previous outburst, "It won't hurt to try, anyway. The other fellows kept offering them more money. That didn't work. She said, "Others? Were there others here before you?" "Two." "How did they treat them?" "The first one reported they were a little short with him." "And the second?" "The second one didn't come back." She stared at him a full minute, horror deepening in her eyes.

"But in danger!" she cried. "Why didn't you stop me tonight? All of us shouting those Quiche words!" He laughed shortly. "Nonsense," he snapped. "The second man was probably bitten by a snake. Or delayed somewhere.

You see, that imagination of yours would play havoc with you in this country. Now get in there and pack, and I'll take you back to the mainland." She stood flattened against the rail, her honey-colored hair blowing back from the white piquant outline of her face, her eyes dark blurs. "I can't," she said. There was a tangle of laughter and bewilderment in her voice. "I don't know why.

Maybe it's the maybe it's you. But I'm going on." Barry recognized decision. With a snort of anger and impatience he turned and strode off. "Wait a minute!" she whispered, and ran after him. She rounded the forecastle 10 feet behind him time to see the dark, naked figure of a native detach itself from the black shadows of the hatch! Her scream rang through the dark night a second too late.

The native had gleam of a knife in his upraised hand! (To Be Continued).
