‘SPORTS. TILT IAFFAIR FOR PRACTICALLY “HOME” HILLTOPPERS Coach and Many of Blue and Gray Eleven From New ! England—Maryland and Gallaudet Get Brisk [ Drills for Contests Here. 5 and starred in scholastic circles-in eas! ATURDAY'S battle in the Hub between Boston College and George- town is being regarded anxiously by Head Coach Jackie Maloney of the Hilltoppers. The mentor of the Blue and Gray is a Boston boy tern Massachusetts, so, consequently, he'is extremely eager to make a good showing with his team on the occasion of its first appearance in his home town under his direction. Maloney still young. He is on the sunny side of thirty. To be intrusted with the command of a Georgetown squad at his age is a dis tinct tribute to his foot ball intelligence and ability as an executive. However, his selection as head of the Hilltop foot ball system after Exendine’s departure was inevitable by rcason of his success as backfield mentor of the varsity and cpach of the undefeated freshman team. The Boston boy has taken over | Georgetown's foot ball situation at an | unpropitious time for a new coach. | Last vears team was wrecked by | graduation, only three men surviving for this campaign. Of these, only one has been able to go the route free . from injury. But from freshman materfal and those left over from last year's squad | Maloney has succeeded in whipping | together an aggregation that may be | depended on to give the Eagles a ter. rific arument for the honors Satur- | Y. The team as a whole lacks ex- | perience, but probably makes up for | 1his deficiency by flaming aggressive- | ness. | Saturday Maloney will be able to| present the full strength of his squad for probably the first time this season | since the opening game. In pastcon- | tests the eleven was hampered by the | absence of stars because of injuries. | But a truly representative team will | take the field this week, ready to sur- | Prise Cavanaugh's men. The work of the Hilitoppers during October gives no adequate indication of the battle they will put up against Boston. Good men have been held in Teserve for this game, injured men have rejoined e squad, a new at- tack has been prepared. and, on the ‘whole, Georgetown is going to be a difficult proposition to handle. Ther there is the great natural Tivalry between the teams of the tw institutions, and a desperate eager- ness on the part of the Hilltoppers to atone for past defeats by taking the measure of Boston. Finally jority of the Hilltoppers are from New England, and it is certain that these boys are going to extend them- selves corsiderably so as to show to their greatest advantage before the bome folks Maryland and Gallaudet are “step- ping on the g in preparatory | workouts for Saturday’s contests.

The cost to date What is the real significance of these immense stadia that are spring- ing up throughout the country? Con- ference educators, men whose chief interest lies in the mental and spir- itual development of young men and women, are discussing this question today. = There is no prevailing opin- fon. " Some are wondering whether, in a phrase once emnloyed by Woodrow Wilson, the sideshow is not outs ping the circus. Others are maintain- ing a silence that may be portentous. And still others are frankly outspok en in their approval of these mani- festations of athletic enthusiasm. Hax Praise for Athletics. On the eve of the Michigan-Ohio game the president of the University of Michigan spoke reassuringly con- cerning the fervid interest in _this contest and the furore associated therewith. It was natural and prop- er, he said, in effect. It occurred, he added, but two or three times a year and was not out of balance with other important aspects of university life. How Foot Ball Is Played BY SOL METZGER HIGH punt is likely to bound cither forward or backward, and we have a low-kicked ball bound backward when it struck the field. In nearly all cases this is a matter of luck. If the ball hap- pens to strike a certain way it will rebound backward—that is, toward the kicker. Many experiments have been tried by | coaches to work out a system whereby | backspin could be imparted to a ball. | The idea in mind Is to kick one so it drops near an opponent's goal line, which most opposing catchers will let | drop in the hope it will roll over the line for a touchback, and then have it rebound into the field of play. N seen th | 0 one has solved the problem wi any consistency. The theory applied to | kicking a ball for this resuit is to have | 1t struck underneath the forward point | Wwith the toe. This gives the bail an up | and over backward motion in flight, and | causes it to rebound backward. No two | balls are alike, and no two kicks strike | exactly alike, so the element of luck | controls the bounce. | Interesting _experiments have been | tried on kick-offs. Years ago, George Woodruft, the old Yale guard, coaching at Penn, worked out a boomerang kick-off. He teed the ball with its long axis at right angles to the direction of the kick. If the ball was kicked with the right foot with a sort of pidgeon- toed swing, a third the distance from its right end, it would go down the fleld some ten or fifteen yards in a spin- ning motion and then come back. No player could kick it that way consist- ently, so it was given up. Woodruff's | idea was to recover kick-offs. On such a play, after the ball has gone ten yards, the kicking team s eligible to Tecover it. (Copyright. 1923.) U. S. FACES PROBLEM i INOLYMPIC ROWING NEW YORK, Novembet 1.—America probably will not be able to muster its full strength for the Olympic row- ing champlonships at Parls next year 285 a result of the French Olympic com- mittee's refusal to accept the American Olympio committee's request for a postponement of several weeks. | The original date set for rowing, July | 10 to 14, seven weeks earlier than these events were held in the 1920 Olympics, conflicted with the important rowing| fixtures in this country, out of which it | was expected material would be drawn | for international competition.

The American committee sought to THE QUESTION. In a recent game 1 noticed a punter kick a ball that would either rebound when it struck the ground or bounce up and down on the field. I wondered if a kicker is able to impart backspin to a foot ball in the same way a golfer imparts it o a golf ball? FootBallFacts BAFFLINGTHTACKLER BY CHANGE OF PACE (¢ & T e How, when and_for what purpose is a “change of pace” executed by a man carrying the bali? Answered by R. C. “BOB” ZUPPKE Head foot ball coach, University of Jllinols. The man who has caused 1 Illinois teams to be kmown through- out the country as “The Fightl; Tiint? . * ok ok k - The change of pace is executed for the purpose of baffling the tackler. Good tackling is largely dependent upon perfect timing. If the man carrying the ball in the open field runs hard and straight, only an equally fleet-footed tackler can easily bring him down. But if this same back changes his pace ever so slightly, he immediately causes the tackler to hesitate and guess, and in this way breaks down the defensive player’s determination. The runner to begin with has the initiative, and he can keep it only by changing his tactics and avoid- ing mere straight running.

When the games become -hard fought, as they do in midseason, the call for an open game becomes stronger. Illinois has demonstrated its ability in a passing game, and is expected to be prepared to open up on Chicago should the need ariss Saturday.

ELIS AND SOLDIERS | NERVOUS OVER GAME | BY WALTER CAMP. NEW YORK, November —TYale ts the Army at New Haven Sat- ay, and as both Harvard and Princeton have games which will give | them an opportunity to release one or two of their players for a look at their dangerous rivals, there will be several experts, in addition to the regular squad of scouts, in the Yale bowl, who will view thg proceedings with g t interest. They should see a hard game. Both Yale and Army are somewhat worrfed as to the results of that struggle on their future contests— Yale with Princeton and Harvard and Army with Navy. Both teams depend upon the power of their lines to open holes, and this means hard, pounding work, which may eliminate some of their stars from future combat. Both will, o course, essay the for- ward pas: but neither relies very largely on deceptive plays with a man swung loose outside the tackle. West Point will have some diffi- culty stopping Neale's slant runs. But, on the other hand, Wood of the Army probably will have the better of Ste- vens in the punting duel, and Smythe is llkely to run back some punts on Yale—especially if the wind is favor- ing the punt so that the ball beats the ends down the field. If Yale learned the lesson she should have from the last part of the Bucknell game, she should stop the long forward passes better. But and unless the line hurries th more than it has so far, he may do it again, TITLE SWIM EVENT LOST TWO SEASONS CHICAGO, Nocember 1.—Lost and forgotten through the national cham- plonships of two years, the half-mile swim title_of the National Amateur Athletic Union was the object of a| search by local officials after discov- ery by the program makers for next season that the event had been lost during the competition of 1922 and 1923 The event was assigned to Southern Pacific Athletic Union, for.| 1923 was not run off.

That came in its Notre Dame contest, but as the Hoosiers whipped Princeton one week later by a larger margin and last week piled up a 35-point total on the reputedly strong Georg Tech eleven, few re- gard the Army’s single defeat as in- dication of real weakness.
