Wm Kentucky Team : Colonials Join Grid Blues Chorus INVADERS CAPABLE AS WELL AS HEFTY About Biggest Eleven Ever| to Play Here—Have Array of Clever Backs. BY H. C. BYRD. NTUCKY has here for its game with Maryland today at 2:30 cne of the biggest foot ball teams that has| ever played in the Nation's Cap-| ital. Yesterday the 30 players in the squad took a two-hour work- out on the College Park gridiron, ana they had every appearance 0(5 being the most powerful outfit| physically that has ever played| here. At least, that seems to be the consensus of opinion of those who watched their practice. | While they are saying little, there is no doubt that the Wild Cats, 2s th are called, feel confident of taking the | Jong end of the scor>. They stow that | in the way they answer questions about | the game, even if they do not come cut | in so many words. Yesterday, following their workout, several of the playei including Coach Gamage and Athlet! Director Boles, remained et the field and watched the first half of the Vir- ginia-Meryland freshmzn game. ENTUCKY has in its line-up three fine bacts, two ¢f whom are even better than the much edvertiscd “Shipwreck” Kelly, according to st-te- ments of coaches of cther teams that met Kentucky. Sald one of these coaches, “You he-r a lot about Kelly, but this chap Bach is a far better ground gainer and a star of the first rank. Urbaniek als> is just as good as_Kelly, if not better Which apparently is saying a lot | about the ability of Bach and Urb>niek. as Kelly for two years p-st has been rated among the two or three outstand- ing backs cf the South. He weighs close to 190 pounds and des better then 10 flat for the hundred. He is one of the star sprint men of the South in track meet: 5 Kentucky probably will cutweigh ‘Maryland 15 pounds to the man in the line and about 10 pounds to the man in the backfield.

Kentucky whipped | Maryville by a big ccore and then swamped Washington and Lee, 43 to 0. | Maryland defeated Washington College, | 12 to 0; Virginia, 7 to 6, and Navy.| 610 0.

A desperately battling Catholic Uni- versity Freshman foot ball team went down before the Cardinal Varsity in A 19-6 battle played yesterday in the Brookland Stadlum for the benefit of the Rockne Memorial fund. Until the final quarter the Yearlings gave the Varsity a whale of a fight. Finn chucked a 20-yard neave to Miller in the second quarter for the game's first touchdown that gave the Freshmen & 6-0 lead, but Tom Whelan shortly aft- erward grabbed the ball from kick-off and swept 80 yards to put across the tally that enabled the Varsity to tle the score at 6-all. In the final quarter Johnny Oliver shot a 35-yard pass to Carl De Mello that netted the Varsity its second touchdown. and later Billinger inter- cepted a Frosh lateral heave and ran 15 yards to score the last Varsity counter.

Pepper Martin hit 500 in the serfes. Foxx hit 348, Simmons, .333; Wil- liams, .320. Aside from these, there were no .300 hitters. Simmons batted in six runs to Martin's five, but Mar- | tin scored five runs to four for Simmons Ore startling thing shown by the statistics is that the Athletics received 28 bases on balls and made 50 hits, yet only scored a total of 22 runs.

George Washington fumbled the opening kick-off and Tulsa recovered on the Colonial 30-yard line. Pilkington and Boehm, mostly with off tackle thrusts. gained the goal in short stages. For its other touchdown Tulsa marched 76 yards. With a few minutes to play, Fullback Finis Parrish intercepted a forward pass and ran 75 yards to give George Wash- ington the opportunity to score. A pass by Johnny Fenlon to Bob Galloway completed the business. George Washington at times showed offensive strength almost equal that of its opponent, but faltered when the big chances came. Once it was held for downs on the 1-yard line and on an- other occasion reached the 8-yard point, only to have a pass intercepted. The Colonials counted 12 first downs against 19 for Tulsa. Its most con- sistent ground gainer was John Matia, who was reckoned generally in the pre- game appraisal of George Washington's strength. Frank Blackistone. at tackle: Carroll Edmonds, guard, and Wayne Chambers, end, were shining lights on the Colonis] defense.
