SPORT Fe dur Local College Elevens Open Seasons Tomorrow, Three of Them at Home LOUIS THE BARBER PICKS TOMORROW’S GRID WINNERS. P —By TOM DOERER MARYLAND SHOULD TAKE (. U.15 AT BOSTON FOR HARDEST TILT Georgetown, G. W., Maryland , Should Have Chance to Test Out Squads. BY H. C. BYRD. OLLEGE foot ball formally gets under way here to- morrow. Four local elevens are to take the field in opening contests, three here and one at Boston. Georgetown meets Lebanon Val- ley at Clark Grifith Stadium, George Washington plays Shenan- doah in the Central High Stadium, Maryland takes on Washington College at College Park, while Catholic University is up North to meet Boston College. All three local games are to begin at 2:30 o’clock. Georgetown has two teams of about equal strength, and Coacn Mills has not yet determined which one he will send on the fleld to start play. Whichever it is, though, that gets the call the other is pretty sure to see just about the same amount of action. The Blue and Gray should win from Lebanon Valley with- out being pushed very much. However, it is true that at times in the past Lebanon Valley has turned out some exceptionally strong outfits, and it may come down here with a much better eleven than is expected. Gme ‘Washington looks for little or no lculty with Shenandoah. The Colonials ought to run up a big score, unless the visiting team proves con- siderably stronger than it was last sea- son, However, Coach Pixlee will send in a team minus several regulars, espe- clally in the backfleld. Three of the men generally expected to hold down regular jobs back of the line will be on the sidelines, two because of injuries and one because of a minor operation. Mll&hnfl meets what is likely to be & much improved Wi n_College eleven. The Old Liners whipped the Shore team last there have cha; ly that and it is that a much better nonp of players now wears the Maroon. land intends to start games season, with the ex- ception of Evans and Fisher, who were duated. Catholic University does not to beat Boston College, but it does for & much better game than it was Bostonians last 15 ot much doubt, despite & not mucl ul a light backfield, that C. U. is much stronger right now than it was at any time in 1930. C. U. is the only one of the me:ll!t elevens that bids fair to be are only stepp stones.

Men have been shifted and shifted again, sophomores are on the varsity and veterans in reserve, backs have been sent into the line and notice has been served that the 1931 Virginia team will br composed of aggressive, quick-acting players. Faced with a schedule that includes Harvard and Columbia, as well as six Southern Conference opponents, Coach Dawson gave the team only eight plays for the first game, last Saturday with ‘There is no scarcity of material at Virginia. Capt. Bill Thomas, a hi shaker and sprinter who can take the ball throvgh the line or around it and the eld. He averaged 5 yards a clip in 1930, and the offense is centered around him. Frank Sippley, veteran quarterback, is out, perhaps for the his understudy, taken duties of field general. Gene Stevens Eleven and He and Doug Myers are sharing halfback assignments with Thomas, and Bucky |5 Harris is stationed at fullback. Ben Pinder, a letterman; John Moulton and Bobby Dodd are also working in the varsity backfleld. The line was reinforced this week by the return of Fenton Gentry, confer- ence light-heavyweight boxing cham- pion, now weighing 210 pounds. He went in at guard besides Lewis Reiss, center, and Herbert Bryant, guard, both former fullbacks. For the first time in several seasons Virginia has had ample tackle material. Buck Poss, ¢ veteran, is at one of the posts, but Chris Thompkins has been transferred to guard and Ed Rohr- bough, Gene Wager, George Coles and Ray Burger are fighting for the position. All are big and rangy. Wager is also elternating with Relss in center. Three veteran ends are available, Bill Condon, Segar. Gravatt and Bill St. Clair, but Coach Dawson has been using Bob Cutler and Max Bence, sophomores, on the flanks in an effort to develop more power.
