PAGE D-—1 Hoyas- Are Hopeful of Giving Plaid Battle : Navy’s Stock Against Army Booms ATHILTED HOTED Eleven at ‘Best Would Have Olitsice Chance to Win, Coach Believes. BY H. C. BYRD. EORGETOWN is far from | pessimistic about its foot ball game here Saturday with Carnegie Tech. While the Hoyas realize that the Pitts- burgh schooi has an exceptionally strong team, and that, on a basis of comparison of records, it is much more formidable than their own, they nevertheless hold to the opinion that their team may come through with one of the greatest triumphs any Georgetown team ever has attained. “Our team will have to play inspired foot ball, it will have to be much better than it hes been at any previous time this season, but I believe we have an outside chance to beat Carn:gie Tech,” said Coach Jack Hagerty this morning. “Of course, that does not mean that I am expecting to win, but it does mean that I think we can win if we give the best we've got, and if Dame Fortune will smile on us just a little.” Graduate Manager of Athletics Gabe Murphy also has it back in his head that Georgetown has a better chance to win than even its own people have any thought of. His idea about the game runs like like: “We know that Carnegie Tech has & good team and that it generally would be rated much better than we are, but we also know that it can be whipped and that it is possitle for us to do it. The vast improvement we showed against Bucknell was a good thing for us, as it put new life in our team. Right now I've niver known of any other Georgetown squad in which there was bettcr spirit than exists in this one, and if spirit counts for much we'll give Carnegie Tech all it is look- ing for and perhaps mo: One direct comparison between Georgetown and Carnegle Tech is in the game each played with New York niversity. Carnegie Tech barely was beaten by the Gotham eleven in a game in which the former was generally looked upon as having outplayed the latter. Geofgetown was defeated by Y. U by 39 to 0.

As a matter of sportsmanship and considerstion for a game loser, if for nothing elsc, everybody_ought ‘to pull | and pull hard for the Blue and Gray to wave triumphant over the Plaid. NE often hears of the fine general- | chip and greet performances of | some of the couniry’s bosl' foot | ball tears, but ofien the quarterbacks of the big elevens are guilty of mistakes | for which the averag: high school | coach would raise his voice to hign heavens. | In the Pittsburgh-Stanford game last | week, for instance, with a gale blowing down the fleld in its favor, with 7 ts to protect, and the ball on its own 30-yard line, Pitt threw long flat . Such play was almost inex- cusable, as Stanford had not been able to gain against Pitt, except for a spas- modic or two. Any d of a punt, with the wind, would have put Stanford back deep in its own territory, from where it would have taken nothing less than a miracle to enable it to score. One flat pass was within inches of being intercepted. 'HY the victory of Notre Dame over Army should occasion so much talk about an upset is difficult to understand. Among the coaches famil- 1ar with the foot bal! situation ther was hardly one who thought that Army had wny more than a faint outside chance. Notre Dame year after yeisr h;\ds ge;z man power and this year is sal e at its zenith in this yrespect. Conced- ing that its coaching is about as good as Army’s, what ordinarily might be expected other than a Notre Dame vic- tory? With foot ball conducted as it 1s at Notre Dame, some school may win from Notre Dame once in awhile, but as a general run the victories are to be on the side of the South Bent eleven.

BY HUGH S. FULLERTON, JR., Associated Press Sports Writer. EW YORK, December 1.— The word is being whis- pered around, a little fear- fully by the “experts” who have been fooled so often by foot | ball, that the Navy is in a “sweet” spot to beat the Army and redeem all the failures of a very ordinary season. There is little in the records to prove that either team is capable of defeating the other, especially in the kind of game the service schools always play, but there is a strong possibility that the Midshipmen may reach the peak of their form Saturday while the cadets still are trying to recover from last week's defeat by Notre Dame. While Army was taking a licking and the battering that went with it, Navy had an open spot in its schedule last week, giving two full weeks of prepara- tion for the big game. That rest and the absence of serious injuries may tell the tale althcugh there is a strong argument, drawn from the results of the season, that Army may come back stronger than ever. 'HE Cadets did that once this sea- son, returning to shellac Yale and Harverd thoroughly after losing to Pittsburgh, and nearly every other major team that has been knocked off the top of the heap in the last two months has returned in the same way to climb back toward the high spots. Some idea of the condition of the two teams was gained from the story of yesterday's practice sessions, the semi- final home drill for each. Navy had only a light workout, devoted largely to signal practice and fundamentals, and the apparent aim of the coaches was more to keep their men on edge than to do any real preparing for the game. “Rip” Miller, Navy coach, cast aside all the customary “bear” stories, admitted that all his men were in good condition and named his probable start- ing line-up. ARMY countered with a stiff drill, including 15 minutes of full-speed scrimmage, with the emphasis on defense against Navy plays. Four play- ers were unable to take part in the hard part of the workout, two, Abe Lincoln and Pete k, merely fol- lowed the action from the sidelines, and “Pick” Vidal, star back, remained on the casualty list, unable to report at all, Ken Fields and Tom Kilday were able to work part of the time and probably will play against Navy. Both teams were scheduled to leave home today after final workouts and establish camps on the outskirts of Phllll‘ldelphh.un announcing Navy's probable start- ing line-up. Coach Miller omitted the name of Gordon Chung Hoon, brilliant halfback, but he is expected to see plenty of action. The team consisted of Murray and Pray or Miller, ends; Brooks and Kane, tackles; Reedy and Burns, guards; Harbold, center; Slack, quarterback; Borries and Clark, half- tacks, and Campbell, fullback.
