VIOLETS MAKE [T HOME-COMING DAY Meghan So States at G Club Banquet, Which Proves Great Affair. A batile next November was pre- dicted today by Chick Meehan, the Maroon coach. His announcement at the Varsity G dinner last night at the Willard that it would be New York's home-coming game was greeted with ringing applause by 750 alumni, students and guests of the Blue and Gray. The game of last year, won by Georgetown, 7 to 2, established an ad- vance sale record for both institutions and only abominable weather, it was thought, prevented a sell-out. More than 50,000 saw a thriller that may have been the first of a traditional series. SELL-OUT of the Polo Grounds Grounds for the Georgetown- New York University foot ball The famous Tad Jones of Yale joined | b Meehan in a double-barrelled broad- side against the critics of Spring practice, They flouted the charge of over-emphasis on foot ball. Jones’ fearless, honest blue eyes were fairly akindle and he thundere heights of oratory in answering an edi- torlai _on over-emhpasis in the Yale Daily News. “The young fellow who wrote that did not express the sentiment either of the undergraduates or the alumni,” he said. How can there be overemphasis, he asked, on a game that teaches lessons in such virtues as loyalty, perseverance, determination and self-sacrifice? “There can be no overemphasis on these,” he declared. The Rev. Dr. W. Coleman Nevils, . J., president of Georgetown, gave his hearty indorsement of Lou Little as athletic director and expressed the hope that Georgetown would push on and on in athletics, which he deemed a help- ful influence in preparing the student for the career to come. Intramural sports were stressed by the educator. If one would judge by the volume of applause when the athletes were award- ed letters, Maurice McCarthy, jr., cap- tain of basket ball and track, is George- town’s most_ popular athlete, closely followed by Jim Mooney, captain-elect of foot ball. But the veteran coach of track ath- letes, John D. O'Reilly, outshone them. The applause at his introduction amounted to an ovation. The silver- haired wizard in all these years has won a spot all his own in the heart of old Georgetown. The new fumble rule is a year late, looking at it from New York Univer- sity’s viewpoint, observed Meehan, with a glance in the direction of Ken Pro- vinetal. Jones summoned to mind some of the tough games lost on fumbles by Yale and sorrowed that the rule hadn’t been made retroactive. ‘Tad declared he had known men who had carried to the grave the miserable thoughts of games they had lost by fumbling. He and Meehan agreed that the loss of the ball and distance of a punt were penalty: enough for drop- ping the leather. Meehan declared he was utterly sin- cere in pronouncing the Georgetown team that beat the Maroon last Fall the smartest he had ever seen. On at least four occasions, he said, the sharp wits of Lou Little's well schooled warriors prevented Ken Strong from getting away. In pointing out the sportsmanlike umtufi of Little and Meehan toward victory and def ‘Toastmaster George B. O'Connor described thelr meeting after the battle. ‘Too bad lose,” said Lou to Chicl “But it wasn't the better team that lost today,” was Chick's reply. Py 7 far the greatest varsity pect.
