Sports News STARED BY DEFEAT IN CLOSING GAMES Both, Though, Deserve Praise i for Way in Which They Have Stuck to Guns. BY H. C. BYRD. APS for 1931 foot ball at I Gallaudet and American University will blow Satur- day. Both schools are to play the final games of what| have been their most unsuccess- ful schedules in years, the former with Shepherd College here and the latter with Randolph-Macon at Ashland. Gallaudet may have an outside chance to wind up with a victory, but the chances are that American U. will go down to an- other defeat. Neither has a vic- tory to its credit. Gallaudet has a much better chance to finish its season with a victory than American U. It might be said that the Kendall Greeners have a fair chance to beat Shepherd College. Shepherd College came here some time ago to meet American U. #nd defeated the Jocal school, 13 to 6. That does not indicate such strength that as ordi-| narily might bother Gallaudet, but this for the latter is an exception. Gallaudet has turned out in g!’v\o\u years would have walloped epherd College by a wide margin. ‘This year a different situation exists at Kendall Green. The stars of the fine | eleven of last year were lost by grad- uation, and, with the small student body available for material, teams are not rebuilt in a year. Gallaudet's situa- tion in foot ball is largely, if not en- tirely, different from that of any other school, and it really is marvelous that is accomplishes so much. MERICAN UNIVERSITY also has a :lfl nudem.! br?:l]y, b:; it does ve more material to draw from. However, the conditions under which i must develop a team are disadvan- tageous, to say the least, especially when compared to some other smail | the word small being here used in relationship to the numbers | of undergraduate students available for | use on athletic teams. Down at Ashland it is almost a fore- gone conclusion that American U. will meet another defeat, and finish its| season with a straight string of losses. It would be expecting too much even | to indicate the possibility of a victory over Randolph-Macon, which isamong | the strongest schools in the section in | its class. Its most recent accomplish- ment was a victory over University of | Richmond. 1 It would be a great feather in the cap of the local school if it could trim here's the best, of Juck, with the added statement that ‘whatever they accomplish in the way of victories, or do not accomplish, as | the cese may be, they deserve all kinds | of praise for the way they stick to their guns under circumstances that in many cases have caused a good many other colleges to abandon tbe game alto- | gether. 'OACH DUTCH BERGMAN is not | the kind of chap who worries very much about his games. or | maybe it might better be said that he s not the kind of chap who shows trat he worries; but this week he is sitting on pins and needles, so to speak. Berg- | man has made a fine record at C. U. this year and he does not want to see that record spoiled by a defeat or two right at the end of the year. | Of course, even if C. U. were to lose | both its remaining contests it still would be so much better on the season, as a whole, than it has been in years | that it could sit back and contemplate | its accomplishments with a good deal | of pride. . Anybody who thinks that Catholic ‘University has an easy task in its two final games should think again, Every indication points to Providence College @s being strong enough to give any of the teams it meets a hard rough battle, | and Providence is to be played Satur- day. And five days later, Thanksgiving day, Loyola College of Baltimore will be the opposing eleven, and Loyola tled ‘Western Maryland, which has been bat- tling some mighty good foot ball teams on_just about even terms. Of course Bergman’s most immediate concern is Providence College, but no coach could affcrd to prepare entirely for a game Saturday, when he knows that just a few days later he must meet an equally strong outfit. So Bergman's problem is to so handle his men that they can be successful agains, Provi- | Tech | 482 between 6 and 7 p.m. Pigs have The bening Stas. WITH SUNDAY MORNING EDITION WASHINGTON, D.

EMI-PRO and sandlot foot ball teams now are getting in hardest licks in preparation for Sunday engagements, Headed by another South Atlantic Semi-pro League clash betwen those old foes, Apaches and Mohawks, in Griffith Stadium, at 2:30 o'clock, and a flock of games in the Capital City League, the Sabbath card will offer grid fans plenty of attractive spots. Unusual interest attaches to the Apache-Mohawk encounter, as a win for the Hawks would mean that the pace-setters would have just one irore opponent, Celtics, to defeat to gain the flag. A Mohawk victory would also mean the definite elimination frorm the race of Apaches. On the other hand, an Apache victory would put that team back in the race. Mohawks and Apaches tied earlier in the season, 7-7. Apaches and Celtics will drf] tonight at 7:30 o'clock in Grifith Stadium.

WHITE OF HARVARD MAY FACE OLD ELIS Injured Back Returns to Squad. Fog and Rain Retard Toil of Yale Gridmen. By the Associated Press. L CAMBRIDGE, Mass., November 18.— Bernie White, Harvard's best blocking back and spearhead of its sure-fire off- tackle plays, has rejoined the squad and participate in every task Head Coach Eddie Casey demanded yester- day during the first real workout his undefeated players have had for their objective game with Yale. ‘White wore a white jersey, which in- dicated he was not in shape for con- tact work, but Casey has no idea of scrimmaging this week. In fact, he is content to have his varsity play tag foot ball in facing the Yale formations run off by the scrubs. NEW HAVEN, Conn., November 18 (#).—Fog and threatening rain pre- vented the Yale foot ball team from scrimmaging yesterday and it was con- sidered possible that the squad might g0 against Harvard Saturday without dence, and at the same time keep them working in such a way that they will | be in shape to meet Loyola on even terms, even after such a difficult test as Providence seems sure to offer. | OM “MILLS, Georgetown coach, | T thinks his team will have to play | better foot ball against Villanova | than it did against West Virginia if it | is to win from the Pennsylvania team this week. But Tom adds further that he believes his team is going to measure up to that standard. Whether or not that means Mills expects to win is a matter on which he does not cast light. Georgetown seems to stand at least an even chance to whip Villanova. The Blue and Gray at times against West Virginia had every appearance of being & great foot ball team, but it was not as consistent as it might have been. | Many opinions have been expressed that the team was not direct>d on the field as well as it might have been and that if the power that undoubtedly lLies in the ranks of the cleven had been a little better used, West Virginia might have been whipped by a bigger margin. In Villanova Gecrgetown is to face a good foot ball team. Harry Stuhldrerer, former Notre Dame quarterback, coach- ing at that school, has not turned out 8 weak team since he has been there and has had a strong one every year. Georgetown was whipped last year by two touchdowns. Two of the londipst scrimmages it has had since September have made up the major portion of the practice at Mary- land the last two days. The Old Liners have done little of anything {°r the last week, and rough work is nccessary to bring them back to foot ball conscious- ness. ‘To tell the truth, there has not been enough hard scrimmege at College Pa to keep the tecm in the bost possible shape, but for the last three weeks of the yesr, if yesterday and Monday are to be taken as a.criterion, caution has Dbeen thrown to the four winds. ‘Washington and Lee will bring here s mighty good foot ball team.

ITH the 1931 public high school championship series history following Tech’s 65-0 rout yesterday of Business, which gave McKinley its fourth undis- pu'ed title in as many seasons, follow- ers of schoolboy activities here today were looking to the few remaining at- tractive games of the season. Outstanding among the tilts left is the Central-Gonzaga encounter Friday afternoon in Central Stadium at 3:30 o'clock and the annual “C” Club game between Central and Washington-Lee High of Ballston, Va., the same time a week from today in Central Stadium. Central's grid meetings with Gonzaga have been few and far between, but they have always been replete with drama. Last season in the opening game of the campaign for both elevens Central conquered the Purple, 12 to 0. It was the first time the teams had faced since 1925, when Gonzaga tri- umphed, 7 to 3. Gonzaga figures Jt has a great chance to lower the Blue Friday. The I Street- ers, with one of the best teams in its history, has lost only one game, bowing to Swavely, the lone team that has de- feated Tech, public high champion. Central has lost both to Tech and West- ern in the high school series. The Cog- gins-coached team has suffered through the loss of several mainstays who have failed in their studies. Central may lose the Gonzaga game, but it s not so certain that it will again bow to Washington-Lee High, as it did a year ago in the “C” Club game, 0 to 18. The Little Generals haven't the eleven they had in 1930. T was simply a touchdown parade when Tech swamped Business yes- terday. A rather good crowd turned out for the game, proceeds of which, estimated to be around $300, will go to District charity. Business, aside from the opening mo- ments when Flynn, Strasser and Cav- anaugh carried the ball from the kick- off to two first downs, simply was mince meat for the Gray Tech scored only once in the first period, but added four touchdowns in | the second, three more in the third and | a couple of others in the final quarter. | It was the final game of the season | for Business and probably for Tech. | McKinley's scheduled game Thanks- | giving day with Bethlehem, Pa.

EORGE BROWN of Columbus, Ohio, has been elected captain of the Gallaudet basket ball team.

Following the Shepherd College game Saturday, which brings the foot ball season to a close, the Blue basketers will begin practice after the Thanks- giving holidays. Coach Walter Krug, mentor of the Blues for the last few years, will tutor the Kendall Greeners again. Capt. Delmar Cosgrove, Johnay Ringle, Jack Wurdemann and Konrad Hokenson have graduated or failed to return to school. However, Krug still has a few dependables from which to rebuild a team.

CEATER,.WHO ISTEXPECTED TO CHECK COLONIAL, THRUSTS THROUGHINIS SECTOR. FEW HAVE _ABLE. YO PASSTHIM ... Butler Bulldogs Ferocious Do Not Do Much Barking But Are Likely to Bite. BY TOM DOERER- P until the other afternoon l I the boys at the cigar store would have been willing to wager a palr of shin- plasters against one frog skin that Butler Bulldogs did not have enough get-along Malindy to make George Washington Univer- sity stop snoring in its sleep. That was the other afternoon, gentle- men. At the moment the boys at the tobacco shop would not risk an old straw hat against your Eugenie. That's how the voting has turned since news on Butler’s big backs and rugged lines- men has seeped into town. Even the optimistic Mr. Pixlee, G. W. foot ball coach, has turned Dobie.. Pix is viewing the combat ‘“with alarm.” And when a coach starts to talk in that manner the other team has something besides feet in its shoes. According to the worried Mr. Pixlee and his aides, Butler has a big. and powerful eleven which hopcs to fin- ish its season Friday night by slapping the Colonials into a state of coma. And then rapping them back into a state much worse than that. Listen to Mr. Pixlee weep about what is going to happen to the Colonials if they do not watch their step and you will have heard the worst news of the day. The men- tor points with horror, misappre- hension and a voice full of tears at Butler's center position. In there is Ralph Moore, a stick of dynamite, a bushel of TNT and a carload of concrete. Moore does not budge an inch. When the G. W. U. backs start for that section they will be turned back to try again. And when they try to gang that sector Moore is likely to pile ’em up, one by one, and then carry | the flock to the sidelines to place ‘em | upon Mr. Pixlee’s lap. Don't take my word for it, 'm only telling you how Pix and his aides feel about ihese Butler Bulldogs, Hoosier Hammerers from Indianapolis. And if the G. W. head men are so alarmed maybe there is something to this In- diana outfit, at that. For instance, they are saying that this boy Ken Booz (Ken Beau, gentle- men) has plenty of snap-up uncle. He is a boy of medium height and with plenty of speed, kick and grit. And yo'll know it's grit when I tell you that he suffered a severely injured back in his high school days but refused to quit the game. He came back for freshman duty on the chalked-stripped griddle only to be put out of action by l}lez injury. And when it appeared as if he was to be tabled for keeps by the combination injuries, he popped up as a junior to be the outstanding player on the Butler aggregation. Moore and Booz are but two of But- ml five l:hrl who Pixlee hdk;- e g for T oy Nois ol T8 vears wears Teads gear when the action gets tough. And rom what the coaches are teiling the G. W. players these afternoons it ap- pears as though the visitors are going to start right in without their head- gears. Pixlee is painting a picture of a tough visitor for his squad. He is im- pressing upon them that Butler will not come on the field singing mammy songs and riding kiddie cars. He warns that these Indiana tough boys will more likely be swinging pick axes. So we can_ ex- pect trouble where we thought there was going to be a romping party for George Washing- ton U. on Friday night. Instead of going out there to ‘watch a merry-go- round we may see the Colonials step- ping into plenty of trouble. ‘Mr. Pixlee may be unnecessarily bull- ish in his estimate of the Bulldogs from Butler. Then, again, he may be trying to impress upon his young men that trouble always comes when you least expect it. And that Butler is trouble. But, whatever has actuated his mood and move, his players are not going to take any chances with the visitors. And with the G. W. boys keyed up for turkey Il string along with the rest of the boys, who know no better, and pick the Colonials to smack down the Hoosiers Indiana, big backs, tough centers and smart kickers included. ‘They'll come here reciting James Whitcomb Riley's poetry and we'll send ’em back with picture post cards few Wickersham Committee reports and some tourist guide books. 20 YEARS AGO IN THE STAR.

PAGE C—1 AFTER TOUCHDOWN PLAYS DECIDEFIVE Alabama Leading Scorer in Conference—Tennessee Is Best on Defense. —The extra point after touchdown, subject of much debate among grid- iron coaches, has decided but five games involving Southern Confer- ence teams this season. Three of these games were be- tween conference teams and the two others changed the final com- plexion of intersectional contests. Maryland beat Virginia in early season, 7 to 6, and latér Florida won from Auburn, 13 to 12, and Virginia Military Institute beat Clemson, 7 to 6. Georgia won from New York University, 7 to 6, while Georgia Tech lost to Pennsylvania Satur- day, 13 to 12. With the Dixie season almost com- pleted, 14 tie games are found on record books, but only 5 of these were between Southern Conference teams. Florida and North Carolina and Vir- ginia and Virginia Polytechnic battled to scoreless deadlocks, while Florida and South Carolina played a 6-6 tie, Ken- tucky and Maryland each scored a touchdown without making the extra point and Georgia Tech and North Carolina finished their free-scoring game a% 19 all.
