Bribery Attempted In Maryland Game
College Park, Md.—(U.P.)—A 21-year-old student was accused today of attempting to bribe three University of Maryland football players to "shave" the points in a game against Louisiana State university last Saturday.
The youth was identified as Leonard L. Glickfield, a junior at the university who tried out for the team but failed to make it. Glickfield surrendered last night to Washington police after hiring a lawyer. He was booked on a fugitive warrant and released on $1,000 bail, pending a hearing today.
His attorney said that Glickfield was "completely innocent."
Glickfield was accused by police and university officials of offering quarterback Jack Scarbath, center Tom Cosgrove, and guard Frank Navarro a total of $1,500 in bribes to hold down the score of the LSU game.
The bribe offers, made the day before the LSU game, were reported immediately to Maryland co-captain Ed Fullerton, who promptly informed Coach Jim Tatum. The Maryland coach then told university athletic officials and police.
Glickfield tried out three times for the Terrapins' football team, quitting twice and being cut from the squad once. Because he was familiar to Maryland players, his presence at practice sessions was not questioned.
Scarbath, the ball-handler and pointer in Maryland's split-T attack and a leading all-American candidate, said he was offered $100, Cosgrove $1,000, and Navarro $400.
Tatum disclosed that on Saturday morning, before the game, he had the three players sign notarized affidavits that they had been approached by the alleged briber. The rest of the squad signed affidavits stating they had not. Tatum said
Saturday, is the deadline for submitting applications for the Dec. 4 Selective Service college qualification test.
Deadline Set For Draft Test
Students must mail their completed applications, available at the local draft board, to the Educational Testing Service, Princeton, N.J. To be eligible to apply for the deferment test, the student must: 1. Intend to request student deferment. 2. Be satisfactorily pursuing a full-time course of instruction. 3. Must not have taken the test before.
The present-basis of deferment for an undergraduate student is a score of 70 or above on the qualification test or a member of the upper half of the male freshman class, upper two-thirds of the male sophomore class, or upper three-fourths of the male junior class.
Students who attended graduate schools before July 1, 1951, are also eligible for deferment if their work is satisfactory. Those who attended or were admitted after July 1 must have been in the upper half of their classes during their senior year or have made a score of 75 or better on the test.
Selective Service officials have announced that another test will be given on April 23, 1953, but they emphasized that increasing demands for manpower make it important that draft-eligible students who have not taken the test to do as soon as possible.
Plans for the Kansas State, Nebraska and Missouri games were outlined at the Jay Jane meeting yesterday.
Jay Janes Lay Plans For Football Games
Grass Endacott, president, announced that the group is to meet at the Kansas State game, but there will be no special section.
Homecoming plans include 'half-time' card displays, queen crowning for festivals, selling mums and registering alumni. The Missouri game, Nov. 22, was selected as the migration game which all the pep clubs will attend.
the action was taken at the advice of an alumnus he respected.
The Maryland players, furious over the bribe incident, ran, blocked and tackled savagely as they routed LSU 34-6. Scarbath threw three touchdown passes, while Cosgrove and Navarro played brilliantly in the line.
"I'm proud of my boys," Tatum said. "I think they showed what they thought of the whole thing Saturday when they played a terrific game.
"In any case, it proves that gamblers can't get to college football."
Washington—(U.P.)—A new "five percenter" deal involving a $9,000,- 000 government contract resulted today in the dismissal of a high Democratic party official.
Col. Lawrence Westbrook, Texas businessman and former New Deal administrator, was summarily fired from the staff of the Democratic National committee by Chairman Stephen A. Mitchell.
Mr. Mitchell said last night that he dismissed Col. Westbrook immediately upon learning that he was involved in a deal whereby he and associates would receive five per cent on a $9,000,000 contract for tungsten which the government granted Compania Atlantica, a Portuguese firm. This would have amounted to $450,000.
High Democrat Fired for 'Deal'
Mr. Mitchell said there was "no indication" that Col. Westbrook made use of his position as an assistant to the chairman of the Democratic committee to "bring improper influence to bear" in obtaining the contract.
He said Col. Westbrook also "ex- plained to me that he had entered these negotiations long before his employment by the committee and in fact thought the terms of a gov ernment contract had been settled before his employment."
Despite these facts, Mr. Mitchell said, he dismissed Mill. Westbrook from the committee staff "effective immediately" because "I do not think any exception can be made to the policy that an employee of the committee must not engage in business with the government."
