Dr. Julius John Radice (1908 – 1966) was an American physician and athlete. He played college football, basketball, and baseball at the University of Maryland. Radice was inducted into the University of Maryland Athletic Hall of Fame in 1982. ==Biography== Radice was born in 1908 in Washington, D.C. to parents Peter Arthur Radice of San Fele, Italy and Adalina (née Spinelli) Radice.〔(Peter Arthur Radice (1877 - 1952) ), Find a Grave, retrieved October 5, 2011.〕〔(Adalina Spinelli Radice (1883 - 1946) ), Find a Grave, retrieved October 5, 2011.〕 Radice attended the University of Maryland, where he played as a second and first baseman on the baseball team,〔(''Reveille'' ), p. 176, University of Maryland, 1930.〕 and as a fullback and halfback on the football team.〔Morris Allison Bealle, ''Kings of American Football: The University of Maryland, 1890–1952'', p. 113, Columbia Publishing Co., 1952.〕 During his time at Maryland, Radice earned four letters in baseball, three in football, and one in basketball.〔 In the 1928 basketball game against , the "individual brilliance" of reserves Radice and Thurston Dean helped Maryland to a 37–7 victory over, in which the opponent was held to a single field goal. Radice scored a game-high of 10 points.〔(Maryland Swamps Kentucky 37-7 ), ''The Herald'', January 19, 1928.〕 Two seasons later, Radice again starred against the Wildcats in a 26–21 loss. Atlanta sportswriter Morgan Blake wrote, "the Maryland Old Liners ... had a fine sharpshooter, named Berger, and the slickest passing gentleman we have seen in may days in a heavy-set chap named Radice. Mr. Radice was somewhat of a magician. He would look one way and pass another. And his passes were like Dazzy Vance's speed ball."〔(Kentucky-Maryland Series History ), Big Blue History, retrieved October 7, 2011.〕 For his style of play on the gridiron, Radice was called a "heavy plunging back"〔(YALE AND MARYLAND SELECT LINE-UPS; Wilson Is Picked as Eli Quarterback for the Game Against Visitors Tomorrow.McLENNAN IN BACK FIELD Booth Expected to Play Only OnePeriod--Maryland Names Six of Team Which Won Last Year. ), ''The New York Times'', November 8, 1929.〕 and a "clever defensive full".〔(Western Maryland And St. John's To Renew Football Relations Today; Terrors Big Favorite Over Johnnies For Battle In Stadium OTHER STATE TILTS Loyola To Play Brooklyn Eleven--Maryland Foe Of Virginia ), ''The Sun'', November 2, 1929.〕 In the 1929 game against Yale, Radice and George Madigan, "a pair of burly defense men, did most Maryland's tackling in the first half", which ''The New York Times'' credited with keeping the Eli's lead to a surmountable 13–0.〔(YALE IS HELD TO TIE BY MARYLAND, 13-13; Fails to Maintain Early Advantage Gained While Booth Is in the Line-Up.

THEN YALE TEAM FALTER 45,000 See Maryland's Air Attack Even Count in Closing Stagesof Battle. ), ''The New York Times'', November 10, 1929.〕 The Old Liners tied the score in the second half behind George V. Chalmers passes to Bosey Berger and secured a 13–13 upset against the period powerhouse.〔 After the season, Radice was invited to play in the New Year's Day Southern Conference all-star game at Grant Field in Atlanta.〔(ALL-STARS RUN PLAYS FIRST DAY OUT; GREAT GAME IS ASSURED; NOTABLES HERE Forty-Three Players Are Present; Brandt Subs for Nutter. GREAT GAME IS ASSURED ), ''The Atlanta Constitution'', December 28, 1929.〕 Radice graduated from Maryland with an A.B. degree in 1930.〔 He earned a medical degree from the George Washington University Medical School in 1935.〔(''History of the Medical Society of the District of Columbia, Volume 2'' ), Medical Society of the District of Columbia, p. 335, 1947.〕 Radice was a member of Sigma Nu.〔(''Reveille'' ), p. 66, University of Maryland, 1930.〕 He was inducted into the University of Maryland Athletic Hall of Fame in 1982.〔(All-Time Inductees ), University of Maryland, retrieved October 5, 2011.〕 His son, Peter Radice, played football at Yale in 1967.〔(Yale Features 26 Football Players Whose Dads Did Same Years Ago ), ''The Hartford Courant'', September 3, 1967.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Julius J.
