Sports News | i GRID TEAM INVADES TOPLAY COLONALS Colorful Squad Will Visit President—Hoyas, Terps Also Face Tests. BY R. D. THOMAS. ULSA UNIVERSITY'S Golden | | Hurricane was due in| Washington early this aft-! ernoon, with a date at the| ite House, to open a visitation | %that will end tomorrow night in a | foot ball clash at Grifith Stadium ‘with George Washington’s unde- ‘feated eleven. ‘The foot ballers were to extend greet- | ing to President Hoover from the ol gountty sad then hie to the stadium o unkink from a long journey. The | Hurricane will do considerable whirling tonight. A banquet-dance will be given in honor of the team by the Oklahoma State Society, at Meridian Mansions. Tonight a big pep meeting will be | held by George Washington students on | the campus and at 730 o'clock, Coaches | Jim Pixle> of th» Colonials and Gloomy | Gus Henderson of the Oklahomans will talk about tomorrow night's battle over Station WRC. ENDERSON is a colorful foot ball leader. This is his 22d year of | coaching but he never played the game at college. Strategy is his forte. “Let the other boys score,” he tells his players, “your job is to outscore them.” In Oklahoma they boast that no spec- tator is ever by a Henderson team. For instance, when Tulsa two weeks ago surprised the foot ball world by beating the famous Texas Christian University eleven, 13 to 0, the first touchdown was scored on | an utterly unorthodox play. Deep in its own territory, Tulsa used a forward pass that gained a score but if unsuc- cessful would have made the team ridiculous. Incidentally, it hasn't been cleared up | whether Tulsa meant to forward pass. Capt. Ish Pilkington, fullback and urged for all-American selection, drop- ped back as though to punt. Whether such design was thwarted by a strongly charging Christian line or whether Pil- Rington worked a coup hasn't been re- lated. & In any event, the George Washington | ! watchword tomorrow night will be alert- i3 mess. 'ULSA won seven of nine games last | year, losing decisively cnly to the Haskell Indians and one of fts| + thardest victories was that over George ‘Washington, 14—7. The Colcnials will ‘ have & stronger and better balanced § 3cam on the field tomorrow night than the line-up that faced the Hurricane a | vear ago. On the other hand, Tulsa has made only a few changes. Regarded from this angle, the game would be | keenly contested. Several of the George ‘Washington backs are nursing injuries, but hope to function close to 100 per eent. The game will be the second major contest of Tulsa's twentieth season. Up to this year it had won 152 games, Jost 103 and tied 8. HILE George Washington is enter- taining the grid folk at home, Georgetown will be embattled in & night game at Pittsburgh with Du- quesne. The Hoyas' regular backfield is crip- pled. but the team is rated strong enough with patched-up combination to win. FH 4 Supports Stand On Charity Tilts AMBRIDGE, Mass, October 15 (#).—The Harvard Crimson in an editorial supports the action of President A. Lawrence Lowell of Harvard in refusing to participate in a post-season foot 1 tourna- ment for charity. “The economics of charity games as such,” the editorial says, “is open to severe criticism of a practical sort. No matter how worthy the cause, it is doubtful wisdom to place responsibility on educational insti- tutions whose duty to the state cer- tainly is not financial. It is possible that the funds raised by charity games may be so inconsiderable that the resultant psychological effect will offset the benefit derived from the money.” TERRAPIN YEARLINGS BATTLE CAVALIERS Hope to Duplicate Maryland's Var- sity Foot Ball Victory in Game Tomorrow. University of Maryland's freshman foot ball team will open its season to- morrow at College Park when the Uni- versity of Virginia yearlings will be plaved.

CHAPEL HILL, N.

K. Hall, chairman of the intercollegiate Foot Ball Rules Committee, at the re- quest of the w]’lexee. The four New England institutions will meet in the Yale bowl December 5, while the others will come together at New York Decem- ber 9. In each tournament two 20- minute preliminary games will be played, with the opposition decided by lot, and the two winners will meet in | a 20-minute final. The plan was worked out when the college ‘officials, most of them opposed to post-season and benefit games as a matter_of principle, reccgnized “that the call of the President’s represent- ative in the time of national emer- up the question in an entirely different form.” Their schedules, Mr.' Hall exflained, made it difficult for them to arrange post-season games, and the prospects of deficits faced by most of the college athletic associations made the plan of setting aside the receipts of a regu- larly scheduled game impractical. Although no games have yet been arranged in the Western Conference, the rules have been amended to permit members to engage one another in charity games and to extend their sea- sons to November 28. Maj. John L. Griffith, Big Ten athletic commissioner, estimated that five such games would net close to $1,000,000 for the unem- ployed. Outside of the two tournaments and the Army-Navy game in the East, Tem- ple University of Philadelphia has offered its services, suggesting Pennsyl- vania as a possible cpponent, and the authorities of many other colieges have expressed their willingness to co- operate. The Frankford Yellow Jackets, a professional team, also has offered to meet any opponent on Armistice day. ‘The tournament plan brings number- less interesting possibilities for the ordi- nary foot ball fan. First among_these is the chance that Princeton and Penn- sylvania may meet in one of the zames after nearly 40 years of shattered foot ball relations. These teams, which irst et in 1876, broke relations after a particularly rough game in 1894 nnd never have met in foot ball since then. Another prcspect is that of seeing 2 new brand of foot ball, where the rival teams “shoot the works” in an effort to do as much scoring as possible in 20 minutes. Gil Dobie, Cornell coach, wel- comed the opportunity to try out some plays that were too risky to use in regular games and other coaches ex- pressed similar ideas.

Cliff McKimmie, from out there at White Flint Country Club, nudged Bob Barnett of Chevy Chase from the throne in a sweet, decisive manner. When CIliff turned in his marks there were just enough of them to im- press upon Bob that there was a new Middle Atlantic Professional Golf Association maharajah, and it wasn’t Lefty Grove, either. As & result of the uj locsd golf ‘You cannot keep a golfing canary in his place. His season starts on Tuesday and is still going good on the following Tuesday.

Yet those who boosted him when he did nothing are roasting him fer doing something. And the fight came through with- out any monkey business, too.

The foot ball game, it is true, Should the Stenogs get by the first features the day's activities, but the game itself apparently has lit- tle significance in the minds of | Virginia alumni, in comparison w[ the stadium itself. This dedica-| tion seems to be arousing Virginia alumni to bigger and greater things in the way of intercol- legiate_athletics. | The stadium, as it testifies to a won- | derful advance over the old Lambeth Fleld, signifies to Virginia people | something of what they may hope for in the future. ‘This stadium is something more than a stadium, in that in Virginia | minds it marks the beginning of a new era in which the University will shake off its last provincial garments and go forth in a garb which should enable it to take its rightful place among the foremost universities of America. That is the Virginia thought and ideal, and | | to hear enthusiastic confident predic- | tions as to the future is about all that | | one nceds to catch the spirit of local| optimism. | NOUGH niready has been written | about the stadium itself. as far as descriptions of the structure of con-| | crete 1s concerned. Too much could not be written about the changed atti- | tude of the collective athletic mind at this university. The outlook, the sasoning processes, the whole scheme for the future, are as different from | two or three years ago as the outlook | of America today is different from the | outlook of the America of Jefferson's| | time. As far as athletics is concerned, | | the University of Virginia is being re- born. Not that is is dropping or losing | in any sense its high ideals of the past, | ! but rather that it is adding to this foundation, ~ already established, superstructure of success which shoui establish its fine influence in broader fields and enable it to set for other| | institutions a higher standard of at- tainment, a standard based on the best intellectual and moral processes. A whole day and night of activities are scheduled. The freternities are holding house parties, old graduates are getting together, and tonight there will blg ; grand get-together at the country club. 8 far as the foot ball game is con- cerned, it really seems to be more or less incidental to a bigger thing. But there is interest in it just the same. | Virginia is taking pride in its stadium and is looking on the dedcation of that | re: quarter, Coach Lynn Woodworth figures they will have a real chance to get back at Western for the 27-0 pasting the Georgetowners handed the Orange last Fall. Business doubtless has an improved team over last season, but is weak on serve material. The Stenogs have plenty of grid talent, but. as is aften the case at the school, a flock of these boys are ineligible scholastically. Western Up to Snuff. Western's team appears about on & par with the elevens that have repre- sented the school in recent seasons. The Georgetowners have few players of ap- preciable seasoning. They have one or two, though, who are being heartily ted upon. Everett Buscher, end last season, the lone Westerner to gain all-high recogni- tion in 1930, has been shifted to full- back, and Greve, who played a tackle in 1930, has been put at an end. Here are tomorrow’s probable start- ing line-ups: Busines: Dove Gamage " Nye ... Wynn Francis scher Greve Hillears ", Reynolds tephen -“Buscher ..U Jackie Lynham, halfback, and several others are figured to see action for Western before the game is over. ‘While Business and Western are hav- ing it out at Central, St. John's and Calvert Hall of Baltimore will be bat- tling in the Eastern Stadium.

Most of the folks around here seem to think that Virginia should win rather easily, but there are others who expect V. M.'L to put up a great struggle. Us- | ually the Lexingtonians make a gre game of their meeting with Virginia, even if they seem to be on the short end in the pre-game predictions. Last year, with the weakest eleven it has had | in years, V. M. I. played fine foot ball | against the Cavallers and was beaten | only by the remarkable individual per- | formances of Thomas, star Virginia | back. Today V. M. I. may play the same kind of a game. In fact. it wil be some- thing_of a surprise if it dces not. Actually, Bill Raftery, V. M. I coach, is one of the shrewdest foot ball men | in the South, and when he has an op- | portunity to point for any game he | usually makes good in that game, or comes as near it as any coach with his | material could come. V. M. I has no anywhere near, the equal of Thomas, and it will bé Raftery’s job to build a defense to stop that player. On how well he stops Thomas will depend V. M. L’s success.
