SP Clapper and Lopeman Return to Line-up to Oppose C. C. cf New York. Duke University will be the local feature of the week in foot ball, George Washington has a contest scheduled in some good competition. In fact, the| game in which the Buff and Blue is w; show its wares on its home field for the first time will see it with the strongest breaks, better than an even chance for victory. So far George Washington has been traveling a rocky road. It has met almost an unknown, by decisive scores. However, in the first game with Ford- ham, in which a good showing was made, several players went out with its best. Saturday the strongest line-up that has been on the field since the start of the season will be named to take which insures a lot more work for the defanse of the opposing cleven. George Washington has not been overly blessed with material, and the STAR BALL TOTERS BY H. C.

Reserve strength is at a_mini- mum and an injury to a George Wash- ington player means a lot more than the loss of a player on the average team. The return of Lopeman and Clapper to the line-up means that Gates and Carey will go back to their line positions, and as substitute backs they undoubtedly are much better as regu'ar frowards. City College of New York, while not one of the strongest teams of that sec- tion, gerierally is able to put up a game. It expects to defeat George Washington, if reports from Gotham are true, but probably is not reckoning with the stronger eleven that George Washington will have on the field. If George Wash- ington's squad is in the best of shape physically, the score should be chalked up in its favor for the first time this year. Georgetown’s game with Duke Uni- Yersity ought to provide some of the best fool ball of the year. Duke comes here with an eleven that actually out- gained the Navy last week, and which Wwould give any opponent a lot of trou- ble. In all probability tife odds will favor Georgetown to winf by a small margin, but the game itself will be one worth seeing. Both teams will gain ground, and both will advance through the use of a spectacular and interesting system of offense. Considerable simi- liarity exists between the types of of- fense used by the two elevens. Georgetown will haye its best eleven on the field, and Coach Little, while not too optimistic, feels that his team has the stuff to win if it displays what it act, is capable of.- As Little puts ft: VI feel that we are goed enough to win, but that we shall have to put forth far greater efforts to overcome 10 times the opposition that we have so far faced. In other words, if we do our best we can win. If we don't, anything may happen, because we are not underestimating in the least the ability of the team being ed by Jimmie De Hart.” Catholic University goes to Emmitts- burg to play Mount St. Mary's, Coach Jack McAuliffe may have to face the Marylanders without his star fullback, Malevich, as that player has a badly bruised leg as a result of the battle with William and Mary last week. Mc- Auliffe feels that his men have an even chance against Mount St. Mary’s, al- though he cannot afford to lose a single man without greatly weakening his team, s0 few and far between are capable substitutes. Gallaudet goes to Susquehanna Uni- Yersity for a game. Susquehanna lost here to Georgetown early in the year by a big score, but will be on its home field and ought to have the advantage of the Kendall Greeners. Coach Teddy Hughes, though, has a fighting outfit and has drilled it well in fundamentals and a sound system of offense and de- fense, so that he is more than a match for any school in its class. American University plays at home, having & game with the Shenandoah eleven. This team ought to be some- what of the same strength as the Methodists, and the latter cught to make & much better showing than in their previous games. BOSTON COLLEGE TEAM IS “DROPPED” BY NAVY BOSTON, Mass, October 23 »)— Boston College, which this year de- feated the Navy, 6 to 0, at foot ball, has been dropped from the Annapolis foot ball schedule for 1929, according to advices received by ths athletic authorities. They played this season under a one-year agreement. LINEMEN DO WORK; BACKS GET CHEERS BY WALTER TRUMBULL. i Coaches watch the linemen. - Rooters look at the backs. Toss a boy the ball in a big stadium in an important game and 70,000 spectators give him the same quality of attention a castaway on a lonely island might give the only sail he ' has sighted in a year. Let that young man dodge his way with the ball into and open field, and Jack Dempsey, Babe | Ruth, Helen of Troy and Mary, Queen | of Scots, could dance a quadrilie on the side lines without attracting an eye. Fans crave action. They watch a rac- ing car flash by, but never give a| thought to the builder of the track. Yet the linemen open the holes and knock - down the tacklers and Little Lord Fauntleroy could make a touchdown while wearing a long fur coat over his velvet suit. It is small wonder that a youngster ‘who makes a long run thinks that he is going to be a hero forever. He does not | realize how quickly time can yellow the | papers which carry his picture and print is deeds, or how soon the crowd for- gets. Soon the throng will cheer just as | Joudly, but for another man. Still, he has his big moment and, paraphrasing Kipling, can say: “After me cometh & runner. Tell him I, too, have known.” ONLY ONE CORINTHIAN NINE NEXT SEASON, PLAN According to plans there will be only | one Corinthian base ball team next season. It will be the insect class nine and will be piloted by Webb, who formerly managed the Webco nine. W. J.

EW YORK, October 23 —Michi- gan, unlike Notre Dame, can be beaten in sequence and no one but the alumni will worry about it—and the alumni not much. They know that as in the past the Wolverines have generally stood in the top flight, so will they again. In the meantime conditions are rather perplexing at Ann Arbor. That keen ob- server, Francis Powers of Cleveland, noted in his recent visit there a rather Jlow morale. The players went about their work in a listless way and were lacking in speed and in power. It may be that the coaching situation has had something, if not everything, to do with the plight of the Maize and Blue. First came an announcement that Fielding Yost would resume the position of head coach. Then word was broad- cast that he would not coach at all. A later correction stated he would coach the kickers and passers, and he was photographed by a commercial movie- tone company doing just this. . But on the Tuesday before the im- portant Ohio State game he departed from Ann Arbor and proceeded to Nash- ville to help his brotherrin-law, Dan McGuin, in coaching the Vanderbilt eleven. This left Tad Weiman in com- plete control of the Michigan team. Yost is a very busy man, what with carrying forward all the dutles that fall to him in connection with the plan of athletic expansion at the university, the erection of golf courses and new build- ings and the like. He would hardly have time to act as head coach if he were strongly minded to do so. On the other hand, it is practically impossible for him to keep his hand out of foot ball al- together. Perhaps if he had done so this sea- son, or else had gone on definitely, the present curious condition of the Mich- igan team, which, while below standard, has greater possibilities than have been developed, would not exist, Turn we now to Notre Dame. Michi- gan's lack of success, as already sald, annoys only the alumnjg But ths early wallopings Knute RocPhe's outfit has been getting are nationally disturbing if only because throughout the land the Fighting Irish have an immense popular following of those who never saw a col- lege as students—in all probability the largest non-collegiate following of any foot ball eleven. And Rockne has been the inspiring genius of Notre Dame’s success. He has had color and has been able to transmit it to his team. It was his team which, though beaten by Wisconsin the previous week, was mainly instrumental in draw- ing that 120,000 throng Stadium at Chicago when it met the Navy, another beaten eleven. Throughout the land Notre Dame has fared as colorfully as a golden circus | wagon, embellished with banners and | fillcd with a red-coated brass band. Early season defeats do mnot become Notre Dame. They spoil a brave and | jocund" picture. ‘They cause Knute { Rockne’s inimitable jests and humorous { quips to die upon his lips. And that is not well. Th= fact is that a season or two of bumps are perhaps the best thing that can happen to an organization accus- | tomed to victory. It gives it and its | adherents a sense of proportion and makes the course of victory when re- i sumed—as it will be by Notre Dame— i better appreciated. To win too much is as pernicious as consistent defeats. BALTIMORE SOCCERISTS SEEK D. C. OPPONENTS Confett! Soccer Club of the Greater Baltimore League has sent a challenge to any local team for an intercity clash on Thanksgiving day.

MICKELSON, Associuted Press Sports Writer. CHICAGO, October 23.—It isn't very broad and it seldom has been, but a triumphant smile has again wreathed the face of the “Flying Dutchman,” Coach Robert Zuppke of Ilinois. With a victory over Indiana and a comparative easy schedule ahead ex- cept for Ohio State, arch nemesis of the Orange and Blue, “Zup” and his pow- erful eleven have started on what ap- 10, ‘stralght march towards. iy m&r %ifua}!! Big Ten foot, ball elamplonskip, FEN AR Minnesota, Iowa, Ohio. State and Wisconsin remain as threats, but bar- ring what would be the most unex- pected upset of the conference sea- son, the Illini should tie, at least, for top honors. Buckeyes Real Foe. Zuppke’s men have yet, to meet, North- western, Michigan and Chicago, all of which have been defeated, in addition to Ohio State, which is the last_game Minnesota ‘or Iowa will be virtually eliminated Saturday when they clash at Iowa City, Wisconsin all but ruined its chances by tying with Purdue, while Ohip State must conquer Indiana, Towa and Illinols, a monumental task for any eleven. Minnesota’s great team has a tough schedule left-—-Iowa, Northwestern, In- diana and Wisconsin; Iowa has Minne- sota, Ohio State, Wisconsin and Michi- gan, and Wisconsin’s remaining con- ference schedule includes Michigan, Chicago, Towa and Minnesota. Prospects at Illinols brightened even more yesterday when Harry Richman, veteran center and one of the best de- fensive meri in the conference, was declared scholastically eligible. Northwestern, which invades Illinois Saturday is attempting to manufacture a steering gear for its offensive. The Wildcats have gained 806 yards from scrimmage in its three games this sea- son, but only three touchdowns resulted. Realizing they are in for a strenuous battle Saturday, Minnesota and Iowa dre working long hours in prepara- tion. Coach Burt Ingwersen injected Oran Pape, the sophomore back who scored four touchdowns against Ripon, into the first team's backfield during yesterday's secret practice and changed tackles, while Coach Clarence Spears worked on his Gopher line and devel- oped interference for his backfield. Spears was far from satisfled with the showing of his regulars against Chicago. Badgers Shift Line-up. Coach Glen Thistlethwaite promised a drastic shake-up in his Wisconsin line- up for the Michigan invasion, having discovered several weaknesess in the Purdue game. Michigan's regulars were given a day of rest yesterday, while Coach Tad Wieman and Fielding H. Yost issued a joint statement denying friction between them. Rain, which drove most Big Ten squads under cover yesterday, failed to halt Pat Page and his Hoosiers, and they drilled in blocking, passing and punting on a mud-soaked practice field, for Ohio State. The Buckeyes polished up a sustained offensive as Caach Wilce refuses to depend on wide end runs !'and flashy forward passes to beat In- diana. Purdue learned considerable about forward passing from Wisconsin and started to throw up a defense against chat attack, while Coach Stagg gave his erivpled Chicago eleven a short drill on’ blocking. 'BASKET BALL LOOP STARTS NOVEMBER 10 ! With eight teams in line, the Sunday School Basket Ball League will oven its ninth season Saturday night, No- vember 10, at the Central Y. M. C. A. Paul O.

GRIDIRON DOUBLE BILLS - HAVE PROVED A FAILURE CHICAGO, October 23 (#)—The Big Ten’s experiment with foot ball double-headers through the use of re- serve- or “B" teams so far has been discouraging, several athletic directors have reported. Coaches and alumni especially have protested against the double-header plan, it is reported, and suggestions have been made that the former sys- tem of Intercollege freshman gridiron competition be substituted. CALHOUN, 6. U. RING COACH, QUITS POST Allston D. Calhoun, jr., has resigned as coach of the Georgetown University boxing team and his resignation has been accepted by Lou Little, director of athletics at the Hilltop, with re- gret and praise for his fine work. Calhoun has resigned to become con- nected with the Roy L. Neuhauser Co., investment bankers of this city, The fact that he is completing his law studies leaves him no time to continue his work as boxing coach. Upon com- U) . direction of Calhoun, Geoige- town last year was admitted to the In- tercollegiate Boxing - Association and the team made a good record in view of the fact that it was its first com- petitive season. Prospects for an even more successful season this Winter are bright and an attractive schedule is being' arranged. Calhoun’s successor is expected soon to bé announced. Calhoun, who has been a leader in the movement to have amateur boxing here legalized, intends to do all he can see that the bill covering this, which has 'd the Senate and will be brought before the House in Decem- ber, will in its final form place the chief element of control with the Dis- trict Commissioners with representa- tives of the people of the District on the proposed boxing commission. ST. MARTIN'S QUINT MAKING ITS PLANS St. Martin’s A. C. plans to put a championship contender on the basket ball court this season. Two new play- ers have been added and practice is already under way. Edward Bowers and Bud Wayler are the newcomers to the squad. Practice is listed tonight at 8 o'clock. Manager Sox Harrington will book games at 1908 North Capitol street or by phone at North 2622-J, By registerding 18 foul goals in 26 attempts, Phi Sigma Kappa basketers won the opening contest of George Washington University's interfraternity court series last night, downing Kappa Alpha, 26 to 15.

NORTHERNS SHOULD TEST APACHE TEAN Latter, However, Is Favorite.| Mohawks Have Another | Intercity Fray. In meeting Northerns Sunday at Uniorr League Park, Bill Supplee and his Apache warriors, defending their District unlimited foot ball title, will have their first real test of the current | campaign. On the strength of their comparative | records so far the Apaches loom as sure winners, but the Northerns gave the little Indians an awful scare last Fall, the latter winning by a 7 to 6 score, and | Matt Heard's outfit can be depended upon to furnish plenty of opposition. This contest will give sandlot fans an opportunity to compare the relative strength of the Hawks and Apaches. Northerns held Lansdowne A. C. in a scoreless tie, and Hawks defeated Lans- | downe, 20 to 7. Northerns will have to accomplish the seemingly improbable to remain in the unhimited title scrap. Mohawks have another intercity clash listed for Sunday. Homesteads. cham- plons of Baltimore and Maryland as well, will visit Griffith Stadium at 2:30 o'clock. Last_year these teams battled in a 7-all deadlock here. Both teams are much stronger than they were a year ago, each having enlisted a galaxy of former college and schoolboy stars. Mohawk Preps will face the task of stopping Janney A, C. on Fairlan Field Sunday in Capital City League 150- pound class. A victory for Janneys will | make them strong favorites to cop the | flag. A victory for Hawk Preps will en- | able most any team to step to the front. | Protest involving Mohawk Preps, Na- tional Preps and Alexandria Firemen | will be heard Thursday night at a meeting at 8 o'clock. Considerable im- portance is attached to these protests. Sunday's Capital City League sched- ule for both sections follows: 150-POUND CLASS. | St. Stephen’s vs. National Prep (0ld | Georgetown Prep Field), 3 o'clock. | " Mohawk Prep vs. Janney A. C. (Fair- | lawn), 3 o'clock. Alexandria _ Firemen vs. Yankees (Alexandria Field), 3 o'clock. Peerless vs. Mercury A. C. (field an- nounced later). 135-POUND CLASS. Northerns vs. Columbias.

ROCKNE SEARCHING FOR REAL FULLBACK By the Associated Press. SOUTH BEND, Ind, October 23.— “Wanted: A fullback—Knute Rockne.” Blaming Notre Dame'’s defeats by Wisconsin and Georgia Tech on the absence of a crashing fullback who can gain two or three yards when a touch- down is in the offing, Coach Rockne has started anew his quest for some one to serve that purpose. In yesterday's practice he tried no less than 15.men, but was not satisfled. “We've got to get a scoring punch at fullbdck,” Rockne has advised, “and unless we do we are apt to lose some more games. Twice at Georgia Tech we were hurled back within its 10-yard line.” Collins, who gave promise of filling the position, is out for the season with a fractured wrist. EVERY BIG TEN BASKET BALL SQUAD PRACTICING CHICAGO, October 23 (/).—The Big Ten's basket ball season is a long way off, but every squad in the Conference is now in training.

Bearg Has Strong Team for Missouri | -y — BY SOL METZGER. Look out, Nebraska, here comes Missouri! No other team will face the latter eleven that the Cornhusk- ers would give more to beat. Wip- ing out the defeat of last year, a game lost by one point, is one of the pet tasks at Lincoln this Fall. But Coach Ernie Bearg and his men have no sinecrue. They will meet a powerful eleven, versed in every trick of foot ball. If you recall yesterday’s Missouri play you will remember that the No. 1 back in the diagram started to his right before the ball was put in play and faked a run in that direction, the play resulting in a line smash between tackle and guard. Another stunt of Coach Henry's is to have No. 1 take the:ball him- self, as he swings round, and do the plunging between the opposing tackle and guard. Strength is added to the play by having the No. 2 back run to his right. Every defensive back will note No. 2 do this and be on the lookout for a pass. That will slow them in backing up the line and in consequence give No. 1 an oppor- tunity fo turn in a sizeable gain. In the South Saturday a battle royal is expected wien Washington nmi Lee meets Tennessee at Knox- ville. * There Is a right and a wrong way to play foot ball. -Sol Metzger has writ- ten and iilustrated 32 plays which will be of invaluable aid to every player.

Business and Tech High School foot ball elevens were to clash this afternoon in Central Stadium at 3:15 o'clock in a championship match, but it is the Eastern-Western game on Friday in which followers of the public high title gridiron series are now look- ing with most interest. Tech, with an impressive pre-series record of three wins in as many starts and with a veteran team. was exvected to score rather handily over Business, which has lost several stalwarts through ineligibility. It was to be the series debut for both teams. That Western, despite its limited squad, has a team of no little power was demonstrated recently when the Georgetown scholastics held the sturdy Gonzaga eleven to a 6-0 victory. | Eastern, though, is favored to win Friday's game because of a prepo derance of experienced material. How ever, unless the Lincoln Parkers show to better advantage against W ™m than they did against Central, whom they defeated only 6 to 0, the game Friday may prove much closer than many anticipate. Aside from today's Business-Tech game and Friday's Eastern-Western match, four schoolboy foot ball tiits involving elevens of the District group are carded this week, Two are set for Friday and the others Saturday. Gonzaga and St. John's will meet at Georgetown University fleld and Devitt and Calvert Hall of Baltimore will face perhaps in Clark Griffith Stadium on Priday. Emerson will appear against Tome Institute at Port Deposit, Md., Saturday in the only contest of that day. Gonzaga, which has won two of its ihree games so far, will present a line- up against St. John's Friday consider- ably different than that which played | against Catholic University Freshmen |last Friday when the Cardinals were 14-0 victors. St. John's has lost both its starts to date, bowing to Tech, 0 to 139, and to George Washington Fresh- n, 6 to 13, and will be hot after a victory. Whether the Devitt-Calvert Hall game will be played at Griffith Stadium is not certain. The game may be shifted to some other gridiron hereabout. It should be an interesting contest, as both elevens have shown strength. Cal- vert Hall battled Eastern to a 6-6 tle in the opening game of the season for the Lincoln Parkers and went down before Gonzaga, 6 to 13, after the stubbornest battling. Devitt lost to Eastern, 6 to 18, but whether this comparatively worse showing against the Lincoln Parkers means anything remains to be seen. Devitt drubbed Central, 34 to 7.
