Victory over New York Univer sity and the 0-to-0 tie with Navy have instilled Georgetown with just the confidence it needed, and, incidentally, have borne out the thought, as expressed some time ago, that Georgetown was a far stronger team than its was given credit for being. New York University was beaten by Georgetown and beaten in a way that admitted of no questions as to which team was superior. Saturday the Hill- rs went to lAnnl-“;)uu:l with ’u: determination to give the Navy a Tel battle, and did. That they kept the, Navy a from their goal line, some- thing that Princeton could not do, was » feat in itself, Of course, any scoreless game is likely to drag, and neither team ever gets the credit it deserves in such a contest; but, nevertheless. when any eleven goes to Annapolis and battles Navy to that kind of a draw it deserves a lot of credit. i town probably will beat Wes! Visgioie in the feature event of the home season, which is not likely to in- jure the feel of returning alumni. The showing of the two teams so far uestionably indicates that the Blue and Gray is considerably stronger, and Coach Lou Little will not leave any stenes unturned this week in his efforts to make certain of a Georgetown vic- tory. Little is pleased over the way his men have been playing the last two weeks and thinks they have begun to hit the stride of which he in the be- ginning thought them capable. Georgetown must have played a hard, grueling game against the Navy ai must have played a’ remarkably fine de- e, It also gn:blhly Dlaved a good defensive game, but ran exceptional d&(‘u’l:m In o;n!.r wgrdx, town and Navy played so well on Wm that their best work on offense was impotent.

The ) would delight the eye of any coach, Booth. But to tell the truth about_ the situation, the psychology of the Yale eleven is not good, in that it is depend- ing too much on Booth's presence in the game when it really does not have to. If Yale wakes up to the fact that| it is a fine foot ball team, even without | Booth, then there will be trouble in| store for the Tiger and Crimson. Maryland goes to Norfolk this week for its annua] game with Virginia Poly- technic Institute and, judging by what V. P. I did to Virginia Saturday some- thing of a real battle will take place. | The Blacksburg eleven spotted Virginia | two touchdowns in the first 10 minutes | of play, then went out and scored 32 | points. Since the whipping it took at | Chapel Hill at the hands of North Caro- lina, V. P. I. has wipsd up the earth with Washington and Lee and Virginia, and has, at least in those two games, demonstrated great power and versa- tility of attack. American University went over to | #=1-gs for a_ considerable part of the game, but fnally lost by a small margin. . . s ,usc @bout the kind of game ex- pected of the Methodists, in that it was thought they had about an even break, with a smell margin one way or the cther at the end. Catholie University struck a snag in th> Duquésne eleven, but at that lost only after a heartrending finish. The count stood 13 to 13 with the Pittsburgh men on their own side of the field, and it seemed the game would end that way. But two or three good gains and a long pass netted a touchdown that put a chill into the hearts of C. U. e comers. Then Catholic University came back on the kickoff and rushed the ball to the middle of the field, from where a 25-yard run and a long forward pass grounded behind the goal line came within an ace of evening up tthe count again. However, the Brooklanders lost to a team that tied West Vi fa, which is hardly a disgrace in foot ball. Struggle for Dixie Grid Title Narrows to Tennessee Rivals ANDERBILT turhed back Georgia Tech so decisively that there seems no question about it being within just about one game of the Southern championship. In that one game, however, Vandy may meet its stumbling block. It is T!nm; & see that Vanderbilt must face in rontest which evidently will just about determine the Southern title. Both schools have gone through their sea- sons successfully, the only game either has lost having been the defeat of Vanderbilt by Minnesota. In other words, the State of Tennessee has quite a conflict to be decided within its con- fines, with the State certain to get the credit of victory no matter which of its teams wins. Incidentally, the predic- tion is made here and now that it will be just about as hard to get tickets for that game as for any played anywhere this year. The East did not fare so well at the hands of the West on the gridiron Sat- | urday. Army and Harvard, which sought to conquer Western Conference elevens, Illinois and Michigan, failed. Both Eastern schools played good foot ball, but something happened in each contest to give the Middle West the ad- vantage. It was by a margin of two ints from touchdown that Harvard fi:t. while a touchdown and a field goal margin gave Dlinois its victory. Georgia was completely outclassed by New York University in the first half, STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE INE Washington professionals were scheduled to play prac- tice rounds over the No. 2 course at Pinehurst today in preparation for the Mid-South open championship, which will open with a pro-pro best ball tourney tomor- yow. A 36-hole medal play event on Wednesday will have as entrants all the prominent Eastern professionals who are not in the West. Some of the ‘Washington entrants left the Capital yesterday by automobile, while three went to Pinehurst last night by train.

Cornell has not yet bsen defeated but it has done nothing so astonishing that a defeat by Penn would not pretty well nullify. Penn already has been whipped by one bitter rival, and a defeat by Cornell would not add 1o its joys. . Princeton is looking to its game with Yale this week as the whole of its season. If the Tigers can take the measure of the Bulldog the rather dis- couraging record of Roper's men will be forgotten. If Princeton loses to Yale, it will be one of ‘the worst seasons Roper has ever had. Saturday Prince- ton is said to have shown a lot more foot ball against Lehigh than in some of its previous contests. and rolled into the trap on the other side.

Draper suffered a leg injury when West- ern trimmed George Mason High, 31 to 0, Priday, at Alexandria, and Coach Dan_Ahern is doubtful whether he will be able to play. Loss of Draper would be a keen blow to the Red and White team as he not only has been the most consistent ground rnl.ner for his team. bu! has been calling signals. Should Draper not be able to play it is hard to pre- dict just how the Western backfield will line-up. Coach Ahern expects to start the same group of forwards as began the Tech game. Central probably will start its usual line-up except that Raymond Boyle or Joe Rosenthal will be at left guard in- stead of Sam Mirman, who has been lost to the team through ineligibility. Fans are expecting a close battlc. Last Fall Central and Western engaged in a memorable struggle before the Blue and White triumphed, 7 to 6. A Western victory tomorrow would make that team's series record two wins against two defeats, but a loss would mean its elimination so far as having a chance to finish in a triple te for | second place with Eastern and Centrai. A Central victory would enable that eleven to tie Eastern for second pl each with two wins against one defea and the runner-up position would be at stake when Central and Eastern meet November 19.

Judging from the respective showings of Central and Western against Tech, which may or may not mean anything, tomorrow’s game should be close. Tecl defeated Central, 12 to 6, and Western, 14 to 0. Incidentally, Coach Ahern was pleased with the work of his charges in the Central game and it appears that he had a right to be when it is considered that the line-up which he started was selected only the day before the game when it was known what players would be eligible and had never had an op- rtun.ll%eto even scrimmage together fore the game. Four of the boys in the Western line-up had neéver started in a foot ball game before. They were Lawrence Buscher, end; Everett Buscher, tackle; Jack Bird, halfback, and Wally Bloyer, fullback.

A badly slipping steering mechanism kept me in at Smiths Creek for two days. To repair it required an almost total dismemberment of the boat.

That this is the age of special- 9|ization in athletics, as in just — | about every other branch of hu- man endeavor, is the observation of Elmer P. (Hap) Hardell, direc- tor of athletics at Tech High School., Hardell says that the day of the all- around athlete doubtless is passing. It is becoming increasingly apparent, he believes, that a boy or a young man cannot possibly participate in more than one or certainly two sports and do_his best. He figured that a foot ball player should not particighte, at least in no se- rious way, in any other sport. He does believe, though, that a gridironer can profit by taking in interclass hasket ball games or in court gl.mu in which the mental strain and the desire for victory is not too marked. Such training, he believes, can do much to aid the foot ball player in learning to catch a ball, to pivot and to tut and otherwise de- velop him for gridiron work. A graduate T Club, composed of winners of the coveted circle T, has been organized at Tech High and is starting in enthusiastically on its task of promoting the athletic interests and in helping the general weifare of the school in any manner in which it is called upon. It is the flourishing undergraduate T Club that has brought about the or-' ganization of the graduate body, which starts with a membership about 80. There is believed to be ‘membership of approximately 4 new organization, it being estimal that there are about that many win- ners of the Circle T.

However, he coached the school soccer ball team to the Prince Georges County championship during the season just closed. Four regulars from last season’s team have been lost, but Coach Jenkins has likely-appearing material available and is hopeful of filling these holes. regulars missing are Paul Reeley, who was captain and forward; Bob Vene- mann, forward; Ademar Weingartner, center, and Bill Robinson, guard.

This season, however, Hyatts- ville may have to play Laurel High be- fore winning county honors, as it reported that the high school there will organize a quint. In the event that Laurel does take the court it is premacy.

Otherwise, it is believed that this work will be delayed some time. It is hoped not only to have the fleld in shape for practice by the gridironers in 1930, but ready for use in regular games. Efforts also are to be made by the club to induce more Tech students to 80 in_for athletics. Jack Easter organized the under- graduate T Club in 1917 and since Hap Hardell came to Tech it has become an unusually active organization. It re- gards its achievements of brining about the organization of the graduate body as the best single piece of work it has accomplished. It is pointed out that graduate clubs can, as has been true at Central, do much to support athletics at a school. Dan Ahern, Western High School di- rector cf athletics. and foot ball coach, is decidedly not in favor of a luzfs- tion of an official of ong of the public high schools here that teams in the championship foot ball series play each gther twice instead of once as is lone. In foot ball a team has to prime for each game in a different way and there is so much to the e that it usually is not easy for an eleven to get through the games it now has to play under the best_conditions, in th: cpinion of the big Western mentor. However, it is the belief of Ahern that the twice-around plan now used in the title basket ball series is sound, and he also believes that it should be fol- lowed in the base ball series. the series. He believes with other objec- tions that the mental strain of the longer series would be too It was the opinion of the great. official who nu’uud the “twice-around plan that by nmmmm‘m%’mmu chance of winning Candidates for Basket Ball Called at Hyattsville High n. mfibrum 14—Western at’ Wash- bruary 20—Central.
