E. Hack, 3 5 2 2 0 3 0 The game department of State Conservation Commission has requested the co-operation of Frederick county sportsmen in protecting the mallard ducks stocked along the Potomac and Monocacy rivers a few months ago. The hatchery-bred birds are'so tame that they arc easily trapped by humans. A numer of them have been killed already and the Commission is requesting hunters to refrain from killing the birds wild water fowl season opens next month. It is feit that the ducics will become wild if permitted to live until the breeding season next spring.

The 300 birds liberated are a fine nucleus for building up the duck population in this section, but the will be defeated at the outset if all the birds are killed before they have a chance to multiply. If sportsmen fail to co-operate with the game department it is a certainty that no additional ducks will be stocked here next summer. Odds on the Redskins over the Giants in Sunday's big National Football League game at Griffith Stadium took a precipitate drop yesterday in wake of the announcement that the Giants had signed John (Bull) Karcis. one of the hardestrrunning backs in professional football and up until recently a member of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Karcis was one several dropped by the Pirates in a general house-cleaning after the Pittsburghers had lost their first three games, but the 29-year-old former Carnegie Tech star made monkeys of the Redskin line in both Washington-Pittsburgh games last year and was the chief reason why the Pirates avenged an earlier defeat in the return game at Forbes Field.

The fellow By HARRY GBAYSOX. Sports Editor, XEA Service. New York. Oct. Luckman is the first real 1938 candidate Cor an All-America position.

He plays more left halfback than what is good for opponents of Columbia's spectacular Light Blues, whom experts say could not have repulsed Yale without him. Luckman was a towering figure on a weak team last fall. He was almost as brilliant in the Morningside Heights club's 21-18 defeat by Army a year ago as he was against the Ellis this trip running a kickoff back 80 yards for a touchdown, among other things. After that engagement, Lieut. Gar David- sin, who retired as the Cadets' coach, called him the perfect football player the greatest back that he had ever seen.

Old-timers, including Ducky Pond, the Yale coach, can recall no individual not even the Clint Frank who ever stood out so magnificently in a game as Luckman did against the Blue. He gave a demonstration of the aerial art which would cause a Sammy Baugh, Benny Friedman, Harry Newman, or Dixis Howeil to snort with envy, completing 10 of 17 for a total of 169 yards. He did not make a poor pass. Not once did he miss his man. The passes that were incomplete were dropped or bobbled.

Luckman carried 20 times for 103 yards. He punted seven times for an average of 35 yards from the line of scrimmage, which means an average of 48 yards. One kick State college football teams will play but two games on Maryland soil this week-end. Cosch Hank Hardwick's undefeated a a Academy eleven will meet the University of Virginia on Thompson Field, Annapolis, and Western Maryland and Washington College stage a homecoming affair on Hoffa Feld at Westminster, Saturday. A badly-battered University of Maryland team travels to Syracuse.

N. for what is certain to be a defeat at the hands of the Syracuse Orange. Mount St. Mary's College will play its second Sun- ing for regular jobs. Coach Frank Dobson is using the Peon State and Syracuse games as a basis for determining what men will make the varsity for the remainder of toe season.

George Geinger. soph guard, has been shifted from the right to left side of the line, leaving the running guard job in Lloyd's hands. In practice Wednesday Kip Hewitt took a long workout, giving evidence of being ready for Saturday. Hewitts presence will help the Terps no end. The Old Liners are expected to open with Budkoff at left end.

Cliff Battles of the Washington Redskins, is affording Columbia's varsity some very tough practice sessions. Cliff, now a Columbia coach, went in at half for the scrubs against the first stringers yesterday and ran and punted the Lions back on their heels. "After that Long and Wilson of Army, will be like high school backs." said one battered lineman as he withdrew from the fray. GAMES ARE POSTPONED. County soccer and fieldball games between Thurmont and Middletown were postponed Thursday afternoon because of rain.

Today's games between Walkersville and Liberty were postponed until next week. was blocked. He picked up extra points with place-kicks. Luckman Is Vastly More Than Ace Of Air. Luckman is no gazelle, but he is far from being slow and is a determined runner.

He is a blocker. a tackier, an imaginative and commanding field general and signal- caller, a safety man who makes no mistakes, and the slickest kind of a faker. So while he is entitled' to his campus title of Ace Luckman. king of the air. he is vastly more that.

Lou Little, his coach, calls his prize senior the most remarkable passer he ever set eyes on. You drag out the dictionary of juperlatives in discussing Luckman. Grizzled observers consider his 50-yard pass in the Yale game the most unusual football feat they 2ver witnessed. Shortly before the half ended, fourth down, with six yards to go, Luckman went back in kick faked a run, faked a short pass, shook off two tacklers who apparently had him pinned, and made his Titanic toss. The ball settled hi Frank Stulgaitis' arms in the end zone for a touchdown.

That wasn't the way the play was supposed to go, but Luckman is an instinctive athlete capable of making his own way and picking his spots when something goes awry. Wanted To Be Like Ken Strong And Is. Luckman stands 5 feet 11 inches and comes in at 194 pounds, six of which he lost in the Yale game and picked right up again. He is a product of Erasmus Hall High School of Brooklyn. He plays another varsity sport or two but not very well.

Luckman was football-minded as i boy, when his idol was Ken Strong, famous New York University and New York Giant back. Modest to extreme, he is unaffected by sports page comment. Someone said to him just before Yale game: "I hope you get a start toward an All-America Derth." "I'd trade that All-America stuff right now for two touchdowns against Yale," replied Luckman. He scored the first of four and engineered the other three. You have Sid Luckman to believe what you hear and read about him.

day game in a row, meeting St Bonaventure. conqueror of Manhattan, at Clean. N. Y. Navy is not only uneasy about the Cavaliers but also about some of their injured players.

Navy had hoped to get Lou Mayo, a dandy backfield performer, back this week, but a hip misery keeps him limping. Ed Gillette, a good blocker. is nursing a shoulder ailment and with Louis Gray. 185-pound blocking back out with a bad charley-horse it looks like Hal Hansen will be moved up to varsity for Saturday. With two first-string backs on the sidelines (Bill Smith is out for the season due to a foot injury and Dave Bartilinni is recovering from a bad knee) Washington College will employ a pair of 145-pounders in its backfield Saturday against Western Maryland, at Westminster.

George Ekaitis, coach of the Shoremen, has selected Ed Watson and Harry Carmen to fill the left halfback and fullback posts. Willing, Hard Workers. "Despite their 'lack of much weight both are tough little fellows and because of their hard work and willingness, deserve every chance to start" declares Ekaitis.
