§ QUINTET OF CANDIDATES | FOR BACKF IELD LAID UP Only Five Ball Carriers Available for Game W:itll Randolph-Macon Saturday——Tkree District- * Boys on Georgetown Eleven. BY H. C. BYRD.

And even th $ee little that is encouraging after testing the men on whom the team is expected to depend to gain ground. Parker is out with a twisted ankle, Blackstone broke a bone in_his arm last Thursday, Osborn got a wrenched leg yesterday, Besley was cut over the eye several days ago and Groves had his tonsils removed a week The only mén available a backfield for Saturday's game are Mc ago, and’still is hors de combat.

Needs Reserve Material The real problem at Maryland is to evelop some fair second string backs. n OF lght Youngsters are work- ing in the positions, but not ons has hal the least experfence, not even in high school foot ball, But while the real problem Is in the backfield the line is not a brilliant unit by any means. As g matter of fact, it charges on the ofionse as if any time within & day or two would be alright and on the defense no one among the forwards has yet recognized that he bt; a Pair of hands. some good work and thei times rll ed raggedly. Maryland's ends did nothing wonderful, but its main drouble lay in the inahjlity of the backfleld to comprehend plays and signals. The 3a Corps’ backfield was made up of stellar performers, and once or twice did some fine broken- at fleld rynning. | The Army. mén presented a power~ ful line in which were several .for- mer West Pointers. Green, Tyler, | Stokes and White were the best of | the forwards. Stokes Is a former Central High .player and a really! great man on defense, and in White | and Tyler the Army has a pair of ends | whe would grace any eleven. | Yesterday's scrimmage was pro-| ductive of such good results that ar- rangements have been made to have mare of them. In all probability | workouts between the 3d Corps and! Maryland are likely to be frequent | botween now and the end of the sea- | son. One thing the Marylandera: learned yesterday was that they will! Bave to give and take and smila| oheerfully about it if they expect to| #esemplish ‘much in the type of foot ball taught to some northern teams. There was a lot of rough foot bail in the line yesterday and- it should stand the Marylanders well when they faes Pennsylvania, because the Quaker forwards a week from Satur- day will not be governcd by any dil- letante considerations and their tac- tick will not be of the “parlor pink" | Vatiety. = | & jown and George Washing- ton are bending their efforts to get thelr squads in the best of shape for the game which ysed to be the most | important on the schredule of each in- | stitution. Nobody expects anything | other than that the Blue and Gray is | to b by nfortable margin, shington | should not be expected to accomplish any mare than nold the heavier outfit to 3 comparatively close score.

His team this Saturday is likely to be just as good a scoring machine as | has been turned out on the Hilltop in other years. And that despite the { red list; the University of Maryland probably will have difficulty mustering an effective quartet to against Randolph-Macon Saturday. of mediocre ability, the Marylanders e most optimistic person could’ fore- ight now for Quade, Pugh, Heine, Smith and small man of the five, is about | the gaff” and at the same time rts tao slow for a good back and is| 6eilhu‘ Groves or Besie: fact he will .be without the brilliant tars who made some recent successes possible. And_ whatever may be the worth of the Hilltop backfield, it is apparent that in it are not as good men as individyals as have made up some other Blue and Gray quartets. When Georgets takes the fleld against George Washington three District boys are expected to be holding down berthi They are Paully Byrne, a star at Gonsaga in his prep days; Heiny Jawish and Jim Pugh, a product of Tech HIgh.

ATTRACTIVE GRID GAMES ON CARD FOR 'SATURDAY BY WALTER CAMP. ARRIORS of the gridiron christened their new moleskins last week, but next Saturday they will get down ‘to real business, with ‘prospects of a brilliant season ahead of them. For the benefit of the fan who has forgotten about last year’s per- Charest and Johnson scored over | formances, and who cannot decide what games he wants to see, here is Tom Mangan and Paul Kunkel, 6—3, | 2 bird’s-eye view of the nation’s gridirons for the next four weeks. | There are several games Saturday that should start the latent thrills Bucknell and Pittsburgh meet at Lewisburg. \WY in the foot ball heart. Chicago tackies the Michigan Aggies in New York, and here we shall Haughton is developing his material. Worcestér also will have a game worth seeing when the New London submarine team takes on Holy Cross, for the former has been developing in the last vear or two. Pennsylvania will have a warm-up with Franklin- Marshall at Philadelphia, and there will be an intersectional game up at West Point, where the Academy team takes on Tennessee. Tennessee, while beaten by Vanderbilt last year, 14 to 6, had victories over the University of the South, 18 to 7, and over Ken- tucky, 14 to 7. Geor; beat them in a hard game, 7 to 3. So they will be fair opponents for this early-in-the- season game. Navy Tackles W. & M. takes on Willlam and Mary California begins her . Mary's at Berkeley. but, llke Lafayette, who takes on Muhlenburg at Easton, and Penn State, which takes on Lebanon Val ley at State College, and Syracuse. which meets Hobart at Syracuse, and Washington and Jefferson, ich meets Bethany at Washington, they are all taking on easy jobs, On October 6 things will begin to open up with even more vigor. Co- lumbia has a game with Amherst in | New .York, and there we will get a real line. Georgetown plays Quantico Marines at_Washington, and that will be a_good game. Georgia Tech takes on Virginia Military Institute at At- lanta. Harvard takes a gentls warm- ing_up with Rhode Island at Cam- bridge, while Princeton should not have to o too hard to defeat Johns Hopkins. Nor should Yale have much aifficulty with the Unlvnll? of North Caroline at New Haven, In all these cases, however, one may learn something of the material available for the big fellows.

MARSTON ENDS ERA OF CHILD CHAMPS It remains to be see whether Max Marston will make a popular golf champlon. One gathers from those who saw him stymie himselt into the amateur title at Flossmoor that he will not.

This might well be taken to mean that the new cham- pion is one who does not know his way about soclally. But this was not what was meant. The Philadelphian was attempting to convey that Mars- ton’s demeanor is of the up-and-ultra sort. The gallery is reported to have liked him not.. On each and every hole some spectator was admonished, according to report, for winking. or apping at & mosquito, and the hotographers had no trouble at all Pnexciting his ire. One can imagine, however, few things that an amateur golf champlon needs less than pop- ularity. Marston 1s- thirty-seven years old. Thus comes a break in the fashion of child champlons. It looked as though the year were Eoing to pro- duce practically an unbroken record in this respect. There was Helen Wills, the seventeen-vear-old wom- an's tennis queen. Myram Burns, the ninoteen-and-one-half-year-old west- ern woman's golf ruler; Bobby Jones, winner of the national open. ~Then with Sweetzer, the Yale undergrad- uate, doserted at the ultimate moment by the gods of chance, the advance moves on with a Wesl , and{ of youth was stayed. here we shall have & ehance tp bee| Whether Marston will be popular the real beginning of Percy Haugh-f oT not, he has raised the fallen gon- ton's coaching. for Wesleyan is uon. | falon of veteran prestige.
