SP ORTS. SPORTS. Néafly 100 to Strive for Places on Basket Ball Team at Tech High School CHANPS ARE BENT ON KEEPING TTLE Squad Will Report Tuesday.| Twenty-Six Games Listed. | Boyd Again Coach. BY EDWARD A. FULLER, JR. Not far from 100 candidates for Tech High School's basket ball team | are scheduled to report for first practice Tuesday. Coach Artie Boyd, former University of Maryland athlete, who has directed the McKinley tossers for the past two seasons and piloted them to the public high title both years, again will handle | the squad. “we'll finish about second or third this season,” said Boyd today. “Why can't you win again—matorial not so good?” we asked “I guess the material is all right,” Artie said, “but we can hardly expect to win three times in a row.” Just the same, you can bet that Boyd has high hopes of grabbing that flag again. Tech has lost some stellar play- ers, to be sure, but it has several high- class performers at hand and from the raft of new material available probably will get some players who also will prove valuable. Dependables who have been lost are Bob- MacCartee and George Lassisse, regular guards last season, and Tom Wilson, who also was a first-string guard; Jake Olverson, center, and George Talburtt, forward. Those upon whom Tech is_counting heavily are Capt. Everett (Honeyboy) Russell, forward; Mal Johns, guard and center; Everett Johnson, guard: Bernie Reichhardt, Jimmy Reed and Wheeler, forwards, and Buck Beach, center A schedule of 21 games has been ar- ranged and a couple more probably will be added. It is doubtless the hardest and longest card ever arranged for a Tech quint. In grder to get through with this schedule, Boyd figures to carry a con- siderably larger squad. Last year he had 17 on the roster. This season the squad will be close to 30. In addition to its eight games in the blic high series, high spots of the ech card include matches with Catho- lic University freshmen, University of Maryland freshmen, Gonzaga, Staunton Military Academy, St. John's of An- napolis freshmen, Episcopal, Hagers- town High and Hyattsville High. One game each probably will be arranged with the George Washington and Georgetown freshmen quints to com- plete the schedule.

Hickey, McGuigan, Montavon, Reges, Rinaudot, Bourne, The Gamest Act I Ever Saw Only On the Scrub Team, But Frank George Is Hero, Nevertheless. BY COACH CANNELL OF DARTMOUTH. As Told to “ HEN you talk about the game fellows in foot ball,” sald Jackson Cannell, the Dartmouth coach, “don’t forget the boys who play with the scrubs—the fellows who keep on trying for the varsity and never quit, although they know they've scarcely any chance at all “Sometimes their opportunity finally comes to them. One play, maybe, makes them heroes. It repays them for all their patient striving. “More cften, though, they remain ob- scure. Opportunity passes them by. Yet, when you get down to it, they are the real backbone of the team. They make its spirit. They bring out the best in the fellows who are better than they are—the fellows who make the varsity. “Usually these lads weigh around 150 or 160 pounds. It is tough luck that has beaten them. They haven't quite enough weight—nor speed to make up for lack of weight, “But they don't give in. They keep on giving their best. It is their best that makes the varsity good. C$rPTAKE the case of Joe Golan, half- back candidate. He was one of the boys who don't get their chance. For three years he tried his hardest. Not once did he miss prac- tice. He was always out, battling against the first eleven for dear life. B\frt he couldn't make the grade self. “Once it looked as‘though Joe would crash through, We were to play Navy at Philadelphia. Both the first and second string men in his position were laid up with injuries and we groomed Joe to play. “We went down to Atlantic City be- fore going to Philadelphiz. During sig- nal practice Joe tripped and fell and broke an arm. “That was the irony of fate, all right. The whole team felt as badly about it as Joe did. It was his last year at school and his last chance to make the team. He really was one of the heroes of the squad. We realized it and we wanted him to know that we did. Well, when letters were awarded, he got his varsity D, even if he never had been in a game. €¢FTTHE hurts and the pains that'a fel- low like Joe will endure would send a lot of fellows to the hos- pital. But not his kind. And that re- minds me of Frank George. He and Joe were as much alike as two peas. “PFrank, who comes from Arlington, Mass., was and is a mighty good player. But when he first sot the team he was too light. only a little over 150 pounds. “He got on the freshman team, but only as a substitute. But he attracted attention because he never missed prac- tice. And what was true of his fresh- man year was true of his sophomore and junior years. Apparently he couldn’t get hurt, although he always ‘was cetting the hardest knocks imagin- I guess he must have been hurt than once—only he wouldn't admit it. “Two years ago, in his sophomore year, Frank did one of those things that inspire the whole squad. “He got & foot infection. One after- noon, after practice he atnounced that he was going fo the hospital that night for an operation. It seemed that it was necessary for him to have the nails of all his toes pulled out. “We marked him down on the in- Casper, Scully, Kruger, Ondrick, O’Loughlin and De Bettencourt. jured list, thinking he would check out of practice for two weeks at least. to try for | He weighed | J. P. Glass. But, the following afternoon we got the shock of our lives. When we went out for practice there was Frank in foot ball togs—heavy shoes and all— running the ball! “He didn’t get Into scrimmage that afternoon, but he would have, if we had called on him. ** (VOURAGE? The finest kind. Re- member, he wasn't enduring in- jury and pain so he could get into the big game of the season. He was just forcing himself to come out| so the scrub team wouldnt be crip- pled in giving the varsity good practice. “Spirit like that helps the varsity to win games. I'm glad to say that Prank finally got his chance. “All through his junior year he prac- ticed incessantly to get rid of his weak- nesses. Fall when he reported again he had put on some weight. There came a time, early in our sched- ule, when I was able to send him in. Was he tickled when I said, ‘All right, George, here's your chance; go to it?’ Was he! “He has played in several games and played well, too. It is true he still is but a substitute. Nevertheless, I'd say he is one of our biggest successes. When it comes to courage, he has it. “That stunt of his in coming out for practice after the foot operation in his sophomore year was as game a thing as I ever saw.” FLORIDA AND 'BAMA HEADLINE IN SOUTH Bearing on State Title.

Tech and Western's public high title game in the Central Stadium was the high spot. Gonzaga was to entertain Swavely on the Gonzaga Field and Georgetown Prep and St. Jchn'’s were to battle at Garrett Park in other tilts hereabout. Both these contests also were of more than usual interest. Emerson was at Chattanooga, Tenn.,, to meet Baylor Military Academy; St. Albans was to face its cld rival, St. Christopher, at Rich- mond, and Woodward School was to battle Pranklin School at Baltimore in other engagements. TOUGH ASSIGNMENT CONFRONTS KANSAS Must Beat Nebraska, Oklahoma and Missouri in Order to Win Big Ten Grid Title. By the Associated Press. KANSAS CITY, November 7.—Kan- sas faces the first of three Big Six Conference foat ball foes tomorrow which must be defeated to make cer- tain a conference title and a success- | ful season. And the opposition, in order, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Mis- souri, appears much more formidible than it did two weeks ago. Not only did the Jayhawkers lose an excellent chance to gain national recog- nition that could not be denied when they lost to Pennsylvania, but made imperative the winning of the Big Six race or acknowledging an unsuccessful season with the greatest collection of foot ball talent in the circuit this yes The Kansans came home from Phil delphia with injuries to many, includ- ing the ace back, Jarring Jim Bausch, still a big part of the Kansas offense even though smothered by the Quak- ers. Nebraska has been improving and gave evidence of at least defensive power when it held the Pitt eleven te teams, the Mis- souri-Towa State tussle at Columbia necessarily takes a back seat except for partisan supporters. It bids fair to become a battle of forward passes and perhaps a free-scoring melee. Neither team has won a conference game. The Khnsas Aggies arrive today in Western Pennsylvania, ready to swoop tomorrow into the strorghold of the West Virginia Mountaineers at Morgan- town for a game which, if it doesn't bring victory, will be a nice trip for 28 | players and take “Bo” McMillan back to the scencs of some of his early coach- ing.

There are a great | many big fish, especially rock, in the bay and Lower Potomac that will fall prey to the hardy angler who braves wind and cold weather. The same hardy angler, in fact, may be found fishing in the Potomac around Washington or in District of Columbia waters all Winter long, landing big cat- fish, but the big majority of anglers have packed away their tackle and) until next Spring will talk of the big fellers landed and lost this season. Between the fishing seasons is the | time for the anglers to take necessary | steps to secure action to better condi- tions next year. The first step in this direction already has been taken by Commissioner Henry O'Malley of the| United States Bureau of Fisheries, l‘hn“ issued a call for & conference of the fish commissioners of Maryland, Vir- ginia, West Virginia and Pennsylvania to consider certain fresh-water fishery | problems, chiefly centering in the Poto- mac River area, the head of Chesapeake Bay and the streams entering this part of the bay. Among the questions which are urged for discussion are the follow- ing: Greater protection for black bass; development of closer co-operation in the solution of the fishery problems in boundary waters, as in the Potomac River, for example; pollution of boundary waters; propagation and pro- tection of shad in fresh water, and consideration as to means for affording greater protection to the nursery grounds of our important food and game fish. 'OMMISSIONER O'MALLEY said, in calling such a conference, it seemed best to restrict both the territory to be covered by this conference and the number of invitations in order that “we may have time for careful con- sideration without involving too many diverse interests and phases of these problems.” The conference will be held at the Bureau of Pisheries on Tuesday, De- cember 9, at 10 a.m. Commissioner O'Malley kindly ex- tended Rod and Stream an invitation to participate in the deliberations. Anglers may rest assured I will do all in my power to impress upon the visiting fish commissioners the necessity of closing the Maryland and Pennsyl- vania markets to the sale of bass, the abolition of purse netting in Chesapeake | Bay, greater protection for the big- mouth bass on the Maryland side of the Potomac River and the all-important question of pollution. In the opinion of Rod and Stream this action by Commissioner O’Malley is the biggest thing that could possibly happen for the anglers in this section of the country and good results are bound to come of his efforts. EORGE KNIGHT at Leonardtown telephoned this morning that it was very cold down there with a heavy wind blowing from the north- west. He informed us that the rock- fish are coming into Brettons Bay right off Leonardtown and are congregating P. John H. T. Briscoe of Leonardtown, newly-elected district attorney of Marys County, landed a rock last Sun- day weighing 10% pounds off Herring Creek, in mouth of Brettons Bay. Last Saturday a Washington angler of the fair sex landed an 18-pound rock troll- ing off Piney Point. It was the third fish she had ever Knight reports. 'RANK SCHLEY and Otto Schneider, local anglers, fishing off Blacki- stone Island the first part of the week, using peeler crabs, landed 3 big rock, 2 big hardheads and 60 white perch, averaging one pound each. John E. Thompson and George W. Zimmerman visited the Eastern Shore around Tilghmans Island last week and landed 8 big rock. Thompson said high winds interfered with their fishing and caused them to get only a few strikes, The previous day, Thompson said, a man from up in Pennsylvania returned with a catch of 26 of the&mflefl. fish he had ever esen, the 26 fish weighing 195 pounds. B. HUNT and Willlam W. Leishear « also visited fishing grounds around ‘Tilghmans Island last week and landed 15 big rockfish. John E. Thompson informs us that the rockfish are just commencing to school and that if the weather remains ood these fish will furnish great sport or the anglers until the end of the month, Will Reynolds says that high winds the last two or three days kept many anglers from the river, but that those who went out returned with three or four bass each. The largest bass landed this week, weighing 4% pounds, was caught by John Coleman at Poto- mas Landing, just below Walker Point. LOYAL FOOT BALL FAN Spartan Supporter Has Missed Two Home Games Since 1880. By the Associated Press. Michigan State has one stanch old foot ball supporter who has missed but two home games since the Spartans began playing the fall classic back in the eighties. Edward Redman, weather-beaten at 65, never pays for a home game. Every ticket seller on the campus knows his face, though few can tell his name. He s not quite sure of the year, but he says he missed two home foot ball games back in 1912 or 1913. He was ill. He not only attends Saturday games, but is out for practice every day. Redman retired last year after work- ing on the college farm for 48 years. caught, D. C. GRID OFFICIALS ; TO HAVE OWN BOARD Dissolution of Central Body Will Take Place at End of Current Season.
