literally flies through the end in Stanford's
end zone attempting to haul down this pass.

the 'Ohio State Buckeyes, 6-0, at Stanford,

Maryland Stays In Top Spot
In UP Poll; Michigan Second
New York (U.R) Maryland's
terrific Terrapins, . who should
find the 1955 schedule a lot
easier now that they've beaten
their three toughest opponents,
increased their margin atop the
United Press college football rat
ings today.
Michigan, Oklahoma and Geor
gia Tech were bunched closely
behind Maryland, while Wiscon
sin was a newcomer among the
top ten teams in this week's rat
ings of the 35 leading coaches
who comprise the United Press
rating board.
Coach Jim Tatum's Terrapins,
who added Baylor to their van
quished list after beating Mis
souri and UCLA on the previous
week ends, attracted first-place
votes from 18 of the 35 coaches.
Michigan was the top choice of
six coaches, Oklahoma had five
No. 1 ballots, Georgia Tech three,
seventh-ranked Texas Christian
had one, and ninth-ranked Wis
consin two.
Army in Top Ten
Notre Dame, Army, Texas
Christian, UCLA, Wisconsin and
Southern California filled the
last six places among the top
ten in that order.
Wisconsin vaulted into the se
lect group from 14th place last
week, replacing Ohio State which
dropped from 10th to 17th.
Maryland, seeking to regain
the national championship it won
in 1953, now appears to have
comparatively easy going to an
undefeated season. The . Terra
pins play Wake Forest next Sat
urday, then follow with North
Carolina, Syracuse, Louisiana
State, Clemson and George
Washington. The only one of
these opponents with a ranking
this week was Clemson' (tied for
22nd).

points was eight less than the
previous week's, but their mar
gin over runnerup 'Michigan in
creased from 38 to 50 points.
Michigan had 242 point; Okla
homa 229 and Georgia Tech 226.
