Powerful Tarheel Eleven to Invade : School Teams in Four Games MARYLAND'S RIVAL IS HIGHLY TOUTED Clash Saturday at College Park Should Be One gf Best of Season. BY H. C. BYRD. ORTH CAROLINA UNIVER- SITY has the best foot ball team this Fall that has ever represented it, in the opinion of Burton Shipley, Marylander, who scouted the Tarheels at Chapel Hill last Saturday. Its attack is stronger, more varied, and the men making up the eleven are better play- ers, if Shipley is right in his estim: tion of their worth, and so the Mary- land eleven is due for about the most strenuous afternoon Saturday at Col- lege Park it has had in years. “We are going to have a tough time of it with this North Carolina team,” says Shipley, “as it seems to have everything. Something of how strong and versatile it is may be realized when it is known that Wake Forest had just as big men on the field and was rated to have almost an even chance to win in the game last week. But, despite that, Wake Forest was swamped by a ;nnckgnle] that played better and harder oot ball. “North Carolina has good material for its varsity, good material for its second-string eleven, and almost as good for its third, and it used all three teams against Wake Forest. Its first-string backfield is made up of slippery, fast runners, and it has in Whisnant a fine quarterback. So good was North Caro- lina’s running attack that it was never stopped, and its forward passing was about the same thing. Almost every time the Chapel Hill men threw the ball somebody was at the spot to receive it.” 0ld Liners Must Improve. Maryland will have to play a whole lot better foot ball than it has shown so far this Fall if it is to win from the Tarheel crowd, as they are just a little better than even the optimistic rre-season reports had it they would be. Maryland, however, gradually is improv- ‘ng, though not- as far advanced as it was this time last year, and if it is at its best with its strongest line-up on :he field will have a chance. Mary- iand has two good punters and good ends, and that in itself, with even a fair defense, should make it a hard team 10 beat. ‘Acting on Shipley's advice, the Mary- land squad is being put through a hard week, probably the hardest it will spend during the entire season. North Caro- lina undoubtedly brought its team for- ward much mors rapidly than usual in order to have it in shape to crush Wake Forest, as a result of the beatings it suffered because of four consecutive defeats at the hands of the Baptists. Because of that Maryland has been ompelled to rush its squad more rapidly than it otherwise would in order to get it up as nearly as possible in the same trim as the Tarheels. Shipley, after watching Carolina play, said that it was far more advanced than might have been expected, and seemed more like a' team at the end of the season at its top form than one in an opening game. Plans for Real Battle. Whatever may happen to it in Sat- urday’s game, Maryland is putting forth its best efforts to have its team ready for a great battle. And, notwithstanding the reports and real evidence of Caro- lina's exceptional strength, members of the Maryland squad do not seem to be much concerned about it. They ap- parently are in the frame of mind that indicates a struggle for the opposing eleven. Maryland players no doubt have in mind the fact that last year they went to Chapel Hill and failed to come through, losing 6 to 7, when they expected to win easily. Whatever the result of the game Saturday, the spirit of the Maryland men is good. Other local elevens are preparing for their Saturday games, one or two to go up against stronger opponents, and, too, to have somewhat easy games. George- town appgrently has another easy con- test in mxefing Susquehanna and Cath- olie University ought not to have much difficulty getting away with the long end of the score in its game with American U. However, George Washington is going to have its troubles at Fordham. The Colonials are just as strong this. year as last, it is claimed, but the Fordham team they are to face this Fall is con- siderably different from the Fordham eleven of last year. And Galltloudel: also Is‘g‘ninxl(orm’;p against a tough proposition in facing Temple University, which is reported to we exceptionally good. If George Wash- ington and Gallaudet on foreign fields 2an hold their opponents to low scores they may be considered to have done all expected of them. Catholic University is almost certain ‘0 beat the American U. eleven, as the juality of its backfield almost assures ~hat against a team like Boston Col- ‘ege, where its line was simply out- slassed. Catholic University’s star back- jeld could do little, but against an sleven like American University, where ts line is likely to have the edge, the 3rooklanders’ backfield is likely to run wwild. G. U. Taking Its Time. Georgetown is bringing its team along gradually with the purpose of having it at its top form when it hits the big games it is to play in November, espe- clally those with Carnegie Tech and ‘West Virginia. Coach Lou Little has said since he began practice this Fall that if he could get his whole strength in the line-up ne would be all right and his team would give a good account of itself. He has had numerous injuries in the backfield and one at center that might have cost him dearly had he been meeting a strong team early in the year.

Mount Rainfer and Maryland A.-C. base ball teams of Maryland Park will clash in a double-header Sunday on the Mount Rainier diamond, starting at 1:30 o'clock. The games will have important bearing in the battle for the Prince ?telorges County unlimited class sandlot itle. Originally it was planned to play the first game of a three-game series last Sunday, but unfavorable weather pre- vented competition. Mount_Rainier’s claim to the county title, made after it had defeated Hyatts- ville All-stars.in the first two games of a proposed series of three, was challeng- ed by Maryland A. C. Hyattsville All-Stars will entertain Dixie Pig A. C. in a double-header Sun- day on the Riverdale diamond, starting at 1:30 o'clock. Dixie Pig won over Hyattsville earlier in the season and the latter will be out for revenge. Play- by-play radio returns of the world serlides game will be announced on the eld. MODEL YACHT CONTEST WILL BE STAGED SUNDAY ‘Washington Model Yacht Club will begin its racing tournament for the Secretary’s Trophy, donated by Alf G. Buhrman, club secretary, Sunday on the Tidal Basin. Races will be run each Sunday in this month, and the members making the most points for three out of the four races will be credited with a leg on the cup. Several of the men have recondi- tioned their boats since the national races in July and have turned out much fleeter crafts. At a preliminaty race last Sunday one heat ended with the winner just one minute ahead of his opponent. SIX D. . ELEVENS WILL SHOW WARES Two of Clashes Are Between Capital Aggregations. Business Travels. morrow for foot ball teams of the District scholastic group. "IREE games on Capital gridirons | and one away are scheduled to- In the contests here Central and Devitt are to meet in the Central | da; Stadium, Emerson and Eastern in the Eastérn Stadium, and Calvert Hall and Gonzaga on Georgetown University varsity field. The tilts in the Central and Eastern Stadiums will begin at 3:15 o'clock, and that on Georgetown fleld at 3:30 o'clock. Business will travel to Manassas, Va., to engage Swavely School in the lone contest of the day on alien soil. It is the Central-Devitt game which has created most interest, as this con- test will mark the resumption of grid- iron relations between these old foes after a lapse of several years. It also will be the opening game of the cam- paign for both elevens, and followers of schoolboy foot ball will have their first opportunity of seeing how the teams perform under fire. Louis J. (Ty) Rauber, Central coach, has announced he probably will start the following line-up: Olson, left end; Hanley, left tackle; Hochbaum, left guard; Zimmisch, cen- ter; Mintz, right guard; Mehler, right tackle; Brandt, right end; Colella, quarterback; Plumley, left halfback; Ross, right halfback; Stevens, fullback. Coach Jim McNamara, who says his material is so green that he will con- sider Devitt doing well if they hold Cen- tral to a two-touchdown victory, has in- &?aud he will start his proteges like s: Galotta, left end; Tangora or Dye, left tackle; Walker or Clark, left guard; Cummings, center; Sampson, right guard; Vincent or Summers, right tackle; Depro, right end; Ambramson, quarterback; Bernard, left halfback; Culler, right halfback; Knott, fullback. Two husky elevens will meet in East- ern and Emerson. It will be the sec- ond game of the campaign for both. Eastern fought Calvert Hall to a 6-6 tie in Baltimore, and Emerson lost a keenly contested game to Business, 6 to 7, last week. According to Coach Mike Kelley, Eastern probably will line up in this order for the referee's opening whistle: Holland, left end; John Nally, left tackle; Chester Miles, left guard; Mun- ro, center; Montague, right guard; Wade, right tackle; Eaton Chalkley, Turner, Hayden and Smith, right end; Wood, quarterback; Millar, left half- back; McCarthy, right halfback, and either Mccll.“l)llf'l or Hooff, fullback. Dissatitfled with the showing of his team against Business, Coach L. P. Banfield of Emerson has indicated he will start a line-up against Eastern con- siderably different than that which be- S Baniield expects 1o begin the eld expect n ime like this: 3 - Baker, left end; Riggs, left tackle; Galotta, left guard; Trilling, center; Shugrue or Wheatley, right guard; Mat- thews, right tackl rd, right end; Gordon, quarterback; Colley, left half- back; Skinner, McKaig or Buscher, right halfback; Powers, fullback. Gonzaga will be opening its season against Calvert Hall. Coach Ken Si- mondinger frankly says he is not certain of the caliber of his team, but hopes to have more of a line on his boys after | tomorrow’s battle. It is probable that the Purple will compare favorably with scholastic teams hereabout, as Simon- dinger always is able to develop a good eleven if the material is good enough, and he doubtless has some clever play. ers. Simondinger probably will start the following team against Calvert Hall: Edmonston, left end; Hinkle, tackle; Dunnington, left guard; J. Far- rell, center; Holbrook, right guard; Fer- ris, right tackle; Pyne, right end; Mc- Vean, quarterback; Pinckney or Allman, left halfback; Bussink, right halfback; A. Farrell or Freund, fullback. Business, led by Coach Lynn Wood- worth, will invade Manassas hopeful of scoring its second victory in as many starts this season, over Swavely. ‘Woodworth plans to start the game with about this line-up: Loftus, left end; Reid, left tfackle; Denniberg or Koontz, left guard; Marks, center; Brown, right guard; Miller or Linwood Jones, right tackle; Mahoney, right end; Lewis, quarterback; Rich, left halfback; Lester Jones or Reichardt, right halfback; Duryee, fullback.

Tomorrow will be devoted to light tapering-off work. Daily the injured list of Georgetown, which meets Susquehanna Saturday in Clark Grifith Stadium at 2 o'clock, is dwindling. Yesterday Bob Dwyer, who was hurt last week, got back in uni- form. It was first thought he would be-out of the game several weeks, but, excepting a limp, he appears in pretty good shape. Morris and Zimowski, centers, who also have been on the cas- ualty roll, were back on the job yester- y. Barabas and Hudak, star backs, were given plenty of work yesterday by Head Coach Lou Little, indicating that he is apt to use them against Susquehanna. The Hoya's second-stringers scrimmaged against George Washington'’s squad while Little was sending the varsity tarough its paces. Johnny Bozek, former Gonzaga and Georgetown freshmen grid sensation, who has had to take it easy because of a recant appendicitis operation, may get into Saturday's game. Maryland, which will meet University of North Carolina in Byrd Stadium, starting at 2:30 o'clock, has a big job on its hands if it is to turn back the invaders from the Tarheel State. After routing Wake Forest last Sat- urday, 65 to 0, North Carolina has been hustled along this week by Head Coach Chuck Collins, former Notre Dame star, and his assistants. The form shown by the Tarheel varsity yesterday, however, was not pleasing to its tutors, who are striving against a chance of the eleven going stale. Head Coach Curley Byrd of the Old Liners also is guarding against possi- bility of his charges being overtrained. It will be the rubber game between Maryland and North Carolina, each eleven having won four times since grid- iron relation were stated between the schools in 1920. Carolina was a 7-6 victor last Fall at Chapel Hill, failure “Standard”’ of Week Today to kick goal preventing the Old Liners from tying. Catholic University and American University gridders, who will clash in the Brookland Stadium at 2:30 o'clock, both will be striving for a win follow- ing decisive defeats last Saturday when the Cardinals bowed to Boston College in a 38-6 game and the Methodists fell easy prey to Gettysburg College in an 81-0 rout. ‘When George Washington stacks up against Fordham it will be facing a team bent on vengeance. The Colonials triumphed over the combination from the big town, 13 to 0, last Fall in Cen- tral Stadium here and Fordham will be out to even scores. It is thought likely, too, that the Maroons will ac- complish their purpose as they appear to have a stronger team than in 1927, and George Washington, though it is sure to battle hard, is not looked upon as being as formidable as a campaign ago. Ivan Stehman, G. W.'s captain. and back, has withdrawn from school after being ruled ineligible for foot ball be- cause of scholastic difficulties. Gallaudet can be depended upon to fight courageously against Temple Uni- versity Saturday in Philadelphia, but as the personnel of both elevens is virtual- ly the same as met last Fall when Tem- ple was a 62-0 victor, it is not expected that the Kendall Greeners will do much more than make a creditable showing.

Stagg started a new system of offense last year that had more than fair success. Stagg uses a balanced line—that is, three men each flank the center. One of his pet tricks is to start a back, say No. 4, straight out to the side before the ball is snapped. He then turns in and smashes the op- posing end while the ball is carried on a line buck, as shown above. Such procedure worries both the 35 Tomorrow ST.
