MILLS 1S HOPEFUL OF BEATING . Y.L Terps and Middies Meet in Tough Struggle—Cards Play Gallaudet. BY H. C. BYRD.

From the first blast of the whistle it is pretty sure to be a case one great battle for the break, with the indications good that :t may not take much of a break one way or | the other to turn the tide of victory. | Incidentally both teams seem to be in good physical shape. Rumor had it that Lou Kirn, star of the Navy back- fleld, would not be able to play, but Coach Miller said this morning that he would undoubtedly be in the game. | Kimn last year was one of the hardest men in the country to stop, and prob- ably he has not lost any of his effective- | ness. He did not play against William and Mary last week. Last year won from Maryland 6 to 0 at Annapolis, Kirn sprinting 65 yards for a touchdown on the second play of the game. The game was just about as close and well played as such a game could have been, and by many was classed among the finest struggles of the year. The meeting tomorrcw is likely to be just as spectacular and Just es interesting. ATHOLIC UNIVERSITY plays Gal- | laudet this afternoon in the Brook- | land Stadium. It was at first ex- pected to play at-Clark Griffith Stadium at night, but the decision at the sta- dium not to put up the big light poles until after the Navy-Maryland game caused the game to be shift back to the Brookland field. The contest is to_begin at 2:30. In talking of the game this morning, | Coach Bergman of Catholic University <ald that he would start his strongest possible line-up. Every regular except | one will go into the ne at the begin- ning and stay there until it is won or | lost. according to Bergman. | “I know this Gallaudet team,” s | 'and something of how tric I've understocd that it does not have the material it had last year and | that its showing in Baltimore last week | of | | more luster to a gridiron struggle.

The local school piays on field, and hardly will show enough strength to play on even terms. University of Maryland will start the same team against Navy tomor- row that it had againsi Virginia last week. Pease and Norris will be on the ends, Carlis and Keenan, tackles; Hay- den and Krajcovic, guards; Mitchell, center; Poppelman, quarterback; Chal- mers and Berger, halfbacks, and Woods, fullback.

There seems to be a general disposi- tion to regard Navy's greater reserve strength as sufficient to give it a mar- gin in predictions as to the outcome It is true that games sometimes work out that way, the team having the best | second stringers winning because of strength thrown into the fray at a strategic moment, especially after the | opposing team is worn down.

Incidentally, the Mary- land delegation will be led by Gov. Ritchie, who is to occupy box 219 with a party of men prominent in the pub- lic life of the State. Senator Millard E. Tydings and Representative William P. Cole, both former Maryland athletes, are to be in a box adjacent to that of the Governor. SN SEXTET TO ORGANIZE. Als A.

SPORTS Chips From the Mapleways By Francis E. St LL of them—Paul Harrison, Hokle Smith, Tim Dunworth and Johnny Anderson—had the idea popping Letween their ears, but it was young Eddle Espey, duckpin sensatlon of the 1030-31 sea- son, who spoke first. Then things papped for sure. Eddie wore a thoughtful but eager look on his face Wednesday night at Convention Hall when he walked into Charlie Bell's office, stopped before the desk, where Len Collins was working, and said: “Mr. Collins, you remember the orig- inal Washington Juniors, don't you?” “Sure,” answered Len, “you mean the National Pale Dry team?” “Well, here’s the idea,” explained Eddie. “We were the Pale Drys and the best team in Washington. But we aren’t now. An’ Paulle and myself and Hokle and Timmy and Johnny want |the to reorganize. How about you manag- ing the team? Okay? Thanks a lot.” Harrison and Dunworth were at the Arcadia when the news was broken to them last night by their new pilot, llins. “Do we want to roll?” they almost yelled in unison. “You bet.” Over at the King Pin Hokie Smith was wearing a broad grin. So was Johnny Anderson, the fifth member of the quint, when he heard the news. So the crack National Pale Drys of 1930-31, undefeated save once when the Connecticut Blue Ribbons broke a New England record downing them, are back in the fleld searching for further laurels under the name of Washington Royals. ’Iflmsl: youngsters are not picking their spots, either. The first team they have challenged is none other than Lew Hopfenmaier's present Na- tional Pale Drys, including Maxie Ro- senberg, Jack Wolstenholme, Astor Clarke, Joe Harrison and Bradley Man- dley, all except Wolstenholme being ad- ditions to the team tha’ was handed over to Hopfenmaier by Ben McAlwee one year ago. When Collins queried Harrison, Dun- worth and Espey, who happened to be Frey Wasttad 1o chaliengy res the s ey wan! enge lo echoed, “The Pale Drys.” And Lew Hopfenmaier never has turned down a challenge yet. 'OT only are the Royals keenly look- ing forward to this battle, but also hundreds of bowling followers, kl’urn}t promises to be a real maple classic. bl none of they again reigned the But, after beating their only real rivals, Baltimore Recreation Juniors, two straight times, they decided to have a fling at all comers. Hyattsville, Ray Von Dreele’s Happy Five of Baltimore, Clarendon, Mag Waood's Veterans, George Lang’s Balti- more outfit, tdwn Recreation and the King Pin All-Stars were the next victims of the youngsters taken under the wing of Lew Hopfenmaler. Espey rolled 12 consecutive 400" sets. best, Blue Ribbons, Hopfenmaler substituted the veteran Howard Oampbell for Dunworth. Then Rosenberg was put into the line-up. The Pale Drys lost, but it was no disgrace, for the Blue Ribbons rolled 3,096, a New England record. But it broke up the young combine. ERTAIN it is that the young Royals will have a battle on their hands in the present Pale Dry team. Hopfenmaier again has Rosenberg and * Jack Wolstenholme and has added Astor Clarke, Joe Harrison and Bradley Mandley, all great pinmen. Last week these Pale Drys stepped out in the National Capital League and rolled a sensational 1,956 score for the three games, & new Central-South Atlantic record. Yet, with the heavy dough sure uz be put on the noses of both teams, desire of the young Royals to floor current Drys for a 10 counf the desire of the Hopfenmaier crew o the same to the Royals by way proving that Hopfenmaler made mistake in altering the line-up, fl battle is sure to go down as one of classics of the season. ‘Though Hopfenmaler could not reached last night, the Royals pressed confidence that he would ace cept the challenge and the match woull be arranged as soon as the youngste: had opportunity to put on a few pr: tice touches. The match would be on a home-and-home basis, which prob= ably would mean the Lucky Strike fop the Drys and either the Arcadia of Convention Hall for the Royals. Len Collins was responsible for the name Royals. Len, you know, has fols lowed bowling since its infancy and like many others, the feats of the famous old Royals still linger in his meme ory. As he put it, while christening his team, “Pop Halley and Harry Krauss are the athers of this here team.” VEN a doormat, ever trampled upon, manages to muster a laugh once in a while when it trips somebody. Three teams, trampled and wiped up thus far this season, not only tripped a trio of “tramplers” last night, but slipped in real wallops on the chin while the favorites were down. The biggest upset occurred at Pe:’ worth. The Lucky Strike crew, one the District League favorites, invaded Petworth and went down to a triple defeat. Then Judd & Detweiler, ane other=‘doormat,” socked Temple on button twice in the National Caplif League. And to top it off, Columbia twice downed Convention Hall in ane other District League match. _ After you _buy.”ajw'onder suit or topcoat, you're w,elcbhfig! () make any comparison you want.
