SPORTS. Major Foot Ball Openers Turn Out Mostly True to Form Throughout Countrp; STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE 0. U.1S ONLY LOCAL TEAM 70 SURPRISE Cards Take Worse Beating Than Expected—Hoyas’ Guess About Right. BY H. C. BYRD. ELDOM, indeed, have opening foot ball games run more| true to form than those played Saturday. If there was any deviation from the ex- pected, it was only in finding some elevens displaying even greater strength than was looked for. In every part of the country, with one exception, the larger school was victor, and in many cases by a much bigger margin than usual. ‘This condition held good for the Jocal schools as well, except that Cath- olic University lost to Boston College by a wider margin than there had been any indication it would. As far as local schools are concerned, the one big surprise was Catholic Uni- versity. Reports that had come from | Brookland indicated that the team | would be much stronger against Bos- ton College than it evidently was. Cer- tainly nobody thought that the Brook- landers would get whip by any such margin as they did. Of course, the ab- sence of three or four men from the line-up of a team that is very weak in reserve is bound to make a m difference in the showing that m’nxu, against & loe.

ICHIGAN probably had a harder afternoon than any of the other big universities, although probably was because it played games instead of one. The Wolver- B that two ‘would give California a great battle and Stanford would have difficulty in dis- posing of the Olympic club. However, California won by three touchdowns to one and Stanford by three touchdowns to nothing, which may or may not be indication that Stanford and California are stronger than usual. It is difficult to give any idea just what it does mean in regard to Stanford, as the make-up of any club eleven from year to year may Vary so greatly as to be very effective one season and comparatively weak the next. However, it probably does promise much fqr California, as it is known that Santa Clara has a much better eleven than usual. Some people felt that Santa Clara had an outside chance to win. the South the game that probably attracted more attention than any other was that between Georgia and Oglethorpe, Last year Oglethorpe went up to Athens and counted Georgia out by two touchdowns to one and, with what it thought was a much better team, it felt it had a good chance to turn the trick again. However, Georgia | svidently got weil prepared for the game, | as it socked Oglethorpe good and hard, 31 to 6. In the other big game in the South, South Carolina gave Duke Uni- versity a good lacing. All the other Southern games were not much more than set-ups for the bigger schools. Vir- ginia Polytechnic Institute got only 9 points against none for Roanoke, & smaller score it was expected to win by, but an analysis of the game shows that it made 24 first downs, while Roanoke did not make 1. In other words, the Blacksburg men gained und enough to win by a higher score. orth Carolina was looked upon as a sure victor over Wake Forest, and it was, but it got more of a battle than it or an; cody else thought was coming to it. IRGINIA continued to march through whatever kind of oppo- sition a weaker team offered, beat- ing Randolph-Macon, 48 to 0. Virginia's one-sided whipping of Roanoke last week takes on a new significance in view of the fact that V. P. I. only won from the same eleven by a touchdown snd a safety. It also is noteworthy that Virginia ran up a much larger RACESTODAY Havre de Grace SEVEN:RACES DAILY Special B. & O. train leaves Union Station 12 noon. Special Penna. R.

Yale, Cornell, Dartmouth, Columbia, Syracuse, Pittsburgh and Brown won their games without trouble, except Brown, which seems to have been push- ed to get away with Rhode d State by a single touchdown. Yale is said to have displayed a power and versatility far beyond anything it usu- ally shows at this time of year, all of which is indication that it is not los- ing any time in preparing for the two Southern universities that have been stepping on its toes the last few years, Maryland and Georgia. University of Iowa may have lost a lot of good men through ineligibility, but it showed no lack of material in its first game, which it won, 38 to 12.

Base Ball Canned. INAL preparations for the first foot ball game are under way at Gallaudet College this week. ‘When the Fort Meade Tanks ar- | rive on Hotchkiss Field next Saturday they will find an eleven prepared to | battle to the last ditch. Coach Hughes' Blues are impatiently awaiting the | opener. Today practice was centered around the offense and defense formations with the majority of the backfleld material taking turns at kichking the pigskin for distance and position. Before game time Saturday Coach Hughes expects to know definitely the line-up and the best booters on the team. There are now several good kickers available, but Ringle, last year's mainstay lvas im- | sroved his yardage, but Ruddy Gamblin, a linesman, has shown an even greater improvement in covering distance. Konrad Hokanson, Boyce Williams, An- ton O'Branovich and Jimmy Rayhill are all unlimbering their toes. Faculty Shows Interest. On the Blues' campus there is an air of material interest in the team. Even ; | the faculty members, usually aloof, have shown thelr interest by watching the boys workout. When the faculty is in- terested there is liable to be some “fire- works” in the games played on the home lot.

Last year Curly Byrd's Old Lin- ers felt the whole power of the Blues when they barely won 13-7 in a hair- raising game at College Park. At a recent meeting of the Gallaudet College Athletic Association it was that base ball would be abolished for the coming year. Track will take up the time usually employed by base ball. During the last few years the base ball material has been so0 poor that the team has made only a fair showing. Poor guarantees and gate receipts have made the financial part of the sport dependent upon the surplus in the as- sociation’s treasury. Last year base bell barely broke even. It is hoped that the sport will be resumed when more suit- able material is at hand, which is ex- pected to be in about two seasons, COASTNGUARD DEFEATED Fumbles Prove Costly to Bailors.

HENRY PARK TEAM KEEPS NET TITLE Scores Over Edgemoor, 5 to 2, for Third Interleague Triumph in Row. T appears about settled that so far as the various leagues here are concerned the best tennis is play- ed in the Public Parks loop. Henry Park team, which recently won the pennant in the Parks circuit, yester- day captured the District interleague team championship, vanquishing Edge- moor Club, country club title holder, 5 to 2.
