The b WITH SUNDAY MORNING EDITION ening Slar. Victory Over Wolfpack Gives Catholic U. Brightened Outlook in Foot Ball [wE wERKsspoxtswash 0 | —Ry ToM DomReR] WASHINGTON, R RATED BIGGEST TRIUMPH IN CARD GRID HISTOR Y Bergman Builds Solid Foundation for Future Suc- cess—Hoyas Looking Up—Maryland Cold and Hot by Turns. BY H. C. BYRD. ATHOLIC UNIVERSITY is on the upgrade in the gridiron world. In fact, a good many people, espe- eially strongly partisan supponeu.l have a pretty strong feeling thlt‘ it has just about arrived. But in whatever light one views the Brooklanders' present foot ball situation, nothing but a bright outlook is presented. Not that C. U. will not lcse any moie gamcs, | not at all, but from now on it may| be depended on to go into every contest with a confidence it never before has had imd which un- doubtedly makes for success. Nothing has ever happened to Cath- olic U. in & foot ball way s big as that | victory last week over North Carolina State. And actually, from accounts | of eyewitnesses, the decisiveness of the . victory is not shown in the score. The Jocal school made its M;wo ‘wuchdn‘:nu. and bly had its offensive consider- -myvr;mumed all through the second half because of some rather severe pen- | alties for getting away too fast after | the shift it uses. That was unusual, | too, because Coach Bergman has given 8 good deal of time to perfecting his shift so that it would be well within legal limits. North Carolina State got its touchdown because three consecu- tive penalties for shifting too fast put the Brooklancers back on their own five-yard line, and, when they tried to punt out, the ball hit the back of one | of the Brookland pllfen and a North Carclina_end fell on it for the . That Bergman is well pleased over his victory at Raleigh goes without say- ing. It was the first time that the Brookland schcol ever won from an op- | ponent as big as North Carolina State, and naturally the man who is chiefly responsible for it feels rather good about 1t, and has every right to. That success should give the Brook- land players as individuals and as team a confiience they never before have had. It should give them a new | outlook on gridiron things, as far as | their own school is concerned, and help them to face a future that should hold | many more such achievements. | And the best part of Catholic U.s success is that it is not a fiy by night | proposition, but the result of building on fundamentally sound lines, which is the way Dutch Bergman might be ex- pected to go at a he undertakes. With the better material that is sure to come with increasing stident numbers and with fine coaching, such as it wi get under Bergman, Caiholic U. m face its gridiron future with great con= fidence and real optimism. GEOROI'KO Michigan State game in far better shape than it really expected to get through, should look ahead to the re- | maining part of the season with a good | deal of anticipation for better things | than it has so far had. Especially is this true if Coach Tom Mills can get his backfield men in shape. The Blue and Gray has played through its last two games with virtually only three regular backs, and with not only the regular back out of one position, but | also the substitute out. That has hurt | the offense considerably. No team can | 0 at its top speed unless it has every integer in place and working smoothly. Actually, Georgetown outplayed Mich- igan State last week even more then it did last year, when it won. It had | several scoring opportunities, but did not seem to develop the punch at crucial | times. Michigan State’s fine bacikfield could not peretrate the Georgetown de- | fense consistently, and, according to| report, the game, on a basis ef ground | gained and general appeararce of the teams, should have been Georgetown's. | “It begins to look to me as if we, should come along pretty well for the | rest of the year,” said Mills this morn- | ing, and, if w> can get our men back in shape, should play some mighty good foot ball in our remaining con.ests. Frankly, I feel that Michigan State was somewhat overrated, but, even if it was, we played exceptionally well and, if we had won, there would have been few to | say that we did not deserve it. The future for this scason begins to look & | Jot brighter to me than it did two weeks | @go, when we had 55 many good men injured.” HE University of Maryland had a L hectic afterhoon against Virginis Military Institute. In the first half of the game at Richmond it did about everything wrong that it could do, and on the field had every appearance of not caring much about it. one way or another. As a result, the first half wound up with Virginia Military Insti- tute having three touchdowns for 20| ints and Maryland two touchdowns | ugh, the Old | Liners looked like a real foot ball team. | ¢ clicked both offensively and de- fensively, with the result that the sec- ond half showed Maryland with four more touchdowns and V. M. I. with only two first downs. It is doubtful if anybody in the South thought prior to Saturday's game that any team could score 41 points on the Cadet eleven, not after it had whipped Virginia 18 fo 0. Maryland carried on its second half onslaught by the use of about every concefvable kind of ground-gaining weapon, and in the second half nearly everything it did was as near right as in the first half nearly everything had been wrong V.M. L d one play against Mory- land that caught the whole toam ping. On the Old Liners' 40-yatd line the Cadets lined un and shot a ghort forward pass to the short side end. That end made a perfect catch and then tossed a lateral pass to a half back who had come around ont- side of end. The play took the Old Line backs so completely cff their guard, and they were so astonished, they hardly made an effort to tackle the back who finally got the ball. It was a perfect execution of a difficult play. NNSYLVANIA changed lts ath- letic system, and, as far as results against Wisconsin are concerned, for the betterment of its foot ball tesm Last year the Quakers took a drub- bing out at Madison, and a good many le thought them not strong enough do_anything_else at Philadelpht but they did. _Incidentally, thot v tory should help Penn's foot ball situ- ation & good deal, because, if any ath- letic situation in any college has been muddled for the last two or three years, Penn's has.

One is tempted to add jocularly, “literally, too, perhaps,” but it is not a good thing to joke about Princeton's present foot bali efforts. Certainly not from the Princeton view. For some reason, the T.ger does not seem able to get started, despite the fact that at Frinceton is scme of the best fool b=l material in the Eest, if repoits are to b2 accepted | at face value. Most assuredly the Tigers have cnovgh material to meke a beiter showing than they have so far this Fall. Firs they lost to Brown by a fair margin, then to Cornell by the biggest score by which Princeton ever was defeated, and mow Navy is victor | by a very decisive result. Princeton probably will soon take stock of its foot | ball assets and labilities, and when it | does better news will come from there. HAT a battle the Harvard-Yale game this Fall is likely to be. Harvard apparently has the strongest and most versatile eleven it has turned cut in a decade, while Yale also is stepping along scmewhere near the gait it once held in the foot ball derby. And when two good Yale and Harvard elevens meet, little more is to ball. universities which are not thinking much in terms of foot ball, and where gridiron activities are somewhat decadent, but nct so at Yale and Harvard. Both are making determined efforts to build up their foot ball in- terests and are sycceeding. ANDERBILT could not stop Georgia, although it put up the best game against the Athens School that any eleven has peen able to.

Bustness, although it bowed to West- ern, 0 to 13, in the opening game of the public high school championship foot ball series, figures it has a first-rate chance tomorrow of winning its third game over Eastern since 1920. - The Stenogs conquered the Light Blue, 7 to 6, in 1923, and again in 1926 25 to 6.

It begins to seem that the only two | schools that have a chance to stop Georgia are New York University and Tulane. The former unquestionably has one of the most powerful elevens in the East, and when it plays Georgia in New York probably one of the big- gest crowds of the year will be present. ‘The latter, after beating Georgia Tech, 33 to 0, does not seem to be getting any weaker, And it is interesting to note that Tulane played a much more t Vanderbilt than e won with com- 0. ORTH CAROLINA and Virginia | Polytechnic Institute put up fine struggles against Tennessee and Kentucky. The Tarheels stopped the brilliant McEver throughout the entire game, but finally lost 7 to 0. North arolina, though, got several oppor- tunities to score, and with a break or two might have won. It is said that Tennessee was somewhat overconfident and showed the effects of its game of the previous week with Alabama. V. P. I put up a great game against Kentucky, really bstter than wes ex- pected. The Blacksburg” colleglans fought the Colonels on about even terms during the first half, but fell before Kentucky's great strength in the sec ond. IRGINIA lost another game, this time to Washington and Lee. Again Virginia failed to score. In the four big games in which Virginia has taken part so far, it has scored only one touchdown, that against Mary- land cn October 3. Against Sewanee it was whipped 3 to 0, then lost to Vir ginia Militery 18 to 0. and last weck to Washington and Lee by the same score. When one takes a look at the Virginia squad, he is prone to wonder how the other team does it. &s Virginia has as fine a looking group of men as any school it has played against Bill Ingram’s California eleven lost 0 to 6, to Southern California, which is not winning, but far better than the 74-to-0 defeat suffered by California same NA\.’Y seems to be developing along sound lines, with the objestive of Teaching its zenith on December 12 The game with Army. even if it is for charity. means more to Aanapolis peo- ple than any other on the schedule Coach Rip Miller pulled his charges along rapidly enough to whip Princeton decisively and will try to get them in good shape to battle Pennsvivania and Notre Dame, but it is that contest with Army on which he has his eye above everything else. f WILSON DEA.L N DVENIED Reds' President Admits He Would Like to Have Hack, Malone.
