Outlook Dark forC. U. Fa TEAM STILL DIZZY FROMNLY.U.KAYO Shimmins Comes to Fore as Alternate for Remnant of Fullback Bordeau. BY E. D. THOMAS, UCKNELL'S b, foot ball team to town Saturday bent upon doing no good to Georgetown'’s sorely tried band of near invalids Ever since New York Unijversity broke 'em up in their third game of the season the Hoyas have been on the spot for every foe. Thres of their last four engagements went the wrong way and the other was a tie There is no reason to expect anything but another beating Saturday. Buck- nell in its last effort played a scoreless tie with Villanova, which had beaten Boston College, which only last Satur- Cav plastered Georgetown, 20 0 2.

By | 1its and starts the team has played bril- | Jiant foot bail, but in none of iis games | has it been able to carry on a long- | sustained attack. It had’ opportunities | to beat Michigan State, but either lacked | the punch at right moments or had its chances killed off by penalties. Some- | what the same may be sald of its per- | formance against Boston College. The Hoyas had the stuff to get within scor- ing distance, but no follow through. EORGETOWN'S back fleld lost its “follow through” kick when Wil- mer Bradley, one of the most prom- ising ball carriers to appear on the Hilltop I _years, broke a collar bone on the eve of the N. Y. U. contest. None | of tre Hoya's subsequent losses through injury has been important compared | with this. Bradley's l;:emr‘te at fullback, the rugged and llon-hearted - deau, is reported to be 24 pounds under weight, but his understudy, Johnny Shimiins, who. was touted as a fresh- mlnud in the pre-sea- son varsity dril wfle everybody take | notice while in the line-up against Boston College last week. Some of the Beantown xmw accounts named Shimmins the Georgetown star. If he can fulfill from here out the promise he showed as a freshman, Johnny will be quite the doctor's prescription. UCKNELL and Georgetown played last in 1925, and the battle was one to be long remembered. The Bisons won, 3 to 2, and it was the only game lost by the Hoyas all season. | They were two big, powerful teams that | year, and rough—yea, very rough. The stretcher bearers toiled almost as much as the athletes. It was Bucknell's third straight tri- umph over Georgetown, and put the Bisons one up in seven meetings. 1In the first encounter, in 1904, George- town won, 12 to 0, and Bucknell squared | accounts in 1905, 18 to 0. In the next ame, played in 1916, when Georgetown had one of the strongest teams in its history, the Blue and Gray rolled up %8 points against none A four-year series was begun in 1922, with Georgetown taking the opener. 19-7. Then the Bisons triumphed, 18-7, 14-6 and 3-2, & place kick by Lioyd Trimmer, an end, deciding the last. | Outstanding among this year’s Bisons 4s Clark Hinkle, who punts, passes and | g‘unlu with marked ability. 1In 1929 nkle scored 128 points to leai the Fast.
