THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHfNGTON, D. C, MARCH 12, 1933—PART FIVE. 3 Promise of Big Year Peps C. U. Gridmen : Trojans Claim All-Around Sports Crown | FFTY SNAPTONT IN SPRING DRILLS Ought to Approximate Fine Eleven of Last Season, Says Bergman. ; greatest foot ball season in its history are missing as.a squad of 50 goes about Spring training’ at Brookland, but not even this combined with .o de- pression can lengthen the faces of Head Coach Dutch Bergman and his chief aides, George Vlk and Forrest Cotton. The Cardinals are turning on the heat as though the foot ball season would open in April instead of September. The reason? Well, suh, those Cardi- nals, from Head Coach Bergman down to_the most insignificant sophomore, belleve that last season's fine record, which showed only one defeat, was only a starter in the direction of a front spot for C. U. in the national foot ball show. UT getting there, Bergman has convinced the warriors, is largely a matter of practice, and the Spring training grind finds them willing drudges. The next six weeks promise a grand free-for-all for places, for not even the berth of the new captain, John Jankowski, a halfback, is safe. Eddie La Fond sent up some promis- ing men from the freshman squad, but none among them looms as a second ‘Tom Whelan or & Bus Sheary. “A ball carrier like Whelan,” ob- served Coach Bergman yesterday, “or a leader like Sheary comes to a coach about once in a decade. pect to replace them exactly, but I will say this: We'll have a backfield com- paring favorably with 1932's. Here, run your eye down this list"—Bergman handed over a roster of his squad— “and you'll see where we can put on a set of backs averaging close to 190 unds. Yes, and that backfield would ve not only heft, but drive.” 1G teams are unusual at C. U. In- variably Cardinal coaches have had to develop speed and trickiness to make up for lack of power. But no such problem confronts Bergman. The squad now in training is dotted with really big fellows, and only one player appears to be less than average. Dick Doherty, a back who weighs 150 pounds, s the smallest by considerable. ‘The Cards cculd present a line aver- aging close to 200 pounds. Among last year’s reserve and fresh- men Bergman hopes to find worthy suc- cessors to Vin Fraatz, whom some hold to have been the finest end ever to play for C. U., and Bingo Flynn, a 200-pound tackle with foot ball sense. Others to graduate and may be diffi- eult to replace are Max Billinger, a 200~ pound guard; John Stapleton, capable reserve end, and Francis Donaher, fighting halfback. . LTHOUGH Capt. Jankowski and Charley McVean, quarierback, are Teasonably sure of regular jobs, they are among the most diligent toil- ers. Jankowski was a hard runner an blocker last Fall at right halfback and Bergman contemplates expanding his duties. in Spring drill is whether Jankowski can be made into a passer. | Fundamentals are being stressed and will continue to be. Bergman is a firm believer in lots of this sort of practice. He contends a foot baller can't rise much above his skill in fundamentals. “A great lesson was taught me in a simple thing,” Bergman said, referring to his policy of emphasizing funda- mentals. “After I was supposed to have become a first-class halfback, an Army scout tipped me off to a fault I didn't dream of. “I played for Notre Dame twice against the Army and did well, but in the third game I got almost nowhere. After the game an Army scout said to me: ‘Dutch, know why you looked bad today?* “Of course, I couldn't explain, so he went on: ‘Well, one of our scouts last year noticed that you never dodge to the left. So today we always knew which way you'd go and all we had to do was chase you to the sidelines.” “Those cadets chased me outside so often it was funny. After that,” con- cluded Bergman, “I spent a lot of time in practice dodging to the left.” 'HE Cardinals’ two toughest games next Fall will be with Holy Cross and Detroit. Because of tough breaks that lost them the Holy Cross contest last season, \iey would like a ot to hang it on the Crusaders next time. This annual game lost a dash of color when Maj. John McEwan resigned 25 coach at the Jesuit school. McEwan end Bergman were the hottest kind of foes when players, Dutch at Notre Dame and the major at West Point. McEwan was a great roving center. Also he was big and rough. He’'d chase & ball toter clear into the stands, and toss him over the wall if the other guy showed fight—or so some of the old boys like to tell it. Bergman readily admits he had the highest regard for McEwan. “I don't believe I ever played against a tougher man,” said Dutch, “nor a much better foot ball player.” And the admiration probably is mutual, for both Bergman and McEwan bear scars of their duels. They enjoyed pitting their Cardinals and Crusaders, too. 'O less than seven Washington boys are trying for the eleven, which is probably a record for local talent at Brookland. The D. C. youngsters are Gene Augusterfer, quarterback, who went to St. John’s; Noble Ccok, guard and end, formerly of Western high; Irvine Holbrook, guard and tackle, from Gonzaga; Charley and Bob McVean, Gonzagans, and John and Tom Nally, who ettended Eastern High. Bergman is the only college foot ball coach this reporter has known who ap- peared willing to admit things ought to turn out well for him. Before last sea- son, Dutch declared he'd hdve a fine team. This year’s eleven, he says, should be quite as strong. BY R. D. THOMAS.

A gagements for George Wash- ington University was an- nounced yesterday by Athletic Director | James E. Pixlee. North Dakota University, the team which tied G. W. by & score of,6-6 here on Thanksgiving day, 1931, is the only | one the Colonials will oppose on foreign | soil. This game, negotiations for which | were closed yesterday in a telegram | from Coach C. A. West of the Nodaks to Pixlee, will be played on Friday night, October 6, at Grand Fork, N. Dak. A return game will be played here in 1934. 'AKEN as a whole the George Wash- ington schedule for nexi Fall is the most difficult ever attempted by a Capital college eleven. In addition | to North Dako#a U, the Colonials will meet such nationally known teams as Auburn and Tennessee, co-hclders o the Southern Conference championship for 1932; Washington and Jefierson, Tulsa | and North Carolina State. The schedule is rounded out with games with Catawba College, Clemson College and West Vir- ginia Wesleyan. As for the last two years, George Washington will stage a large part of its gridiron entertainment at night at Griffith Stadium, where last Fall it drew NINE-GAME foot ball sched- ule calling for eight home en- seven contests to establish a local racord for a season's play. Clemson, West Vir- ginia Wesleyan, Washington and Jef- ferson and Tulsa will be met in noc- turnal games. UBURN and Tennessee, neither of which was defeated last Fall, will | occupy the feature spots en the | schedule, both coming here for Satur- | day afterncon contests. Auburn will | visit on October 21 and Tennessee, No- vember 4. North Carolina State, which enjoyed its best campaign in years: last season, will provide the opposition in the final game on Thanksgiving aft- ernoon.

NIVERSITY OF MARYLAND, staging the first real Spring foot ball practice in its history, put on a contest yesterday at College Park between the Golds and the Blacks with thee former winning, 12 to Four eight-minute periods were played. The Golds scored in the third and fourth quarters. All of the Blacks were from last Fall's freshman squad, but the Golds borrowed a few players from the year- ilng ranks, notably Greve and Minion, linemen, who played regularly with the Terrapin cubs during the 1932 season. Better and more experienced back- fleld talent enabled the Golds to gain the upper hand as the lines, both dis- playing good defensive work, played on about even terms. As it was the Golds, cutside of get- ting both of their touchdowns on for- ‘ward s, gained only two first downs. The Blacks did not once make tll'll:k distance essential to moving the sticks. Passes from Nelson to Sothern, the first that netted 17 yards and the sec- ond that carried for a total of 35, brought the Golds' touchdown. The first score came on the fourth down with seven yards to go. | 'HE most significant disclosure of { the game revealed Webb, all-State | center last Fall, in the fullback position. Webb played both center and | fullback at Western High and it is planned to usefhim back of the line next season, Goodman and A.

ASE BALL, track and lacrosse prac- tice also is underway at College Park, with the outlook in all these sports promising. last year, Coach Eplley thinks, although he is rather short on fleld events talent. Coach Burton Shipley of the nine will miss Bozie Berger and Shorty Chalmers, but is well fixed for all posi- tions and should have a good season. Jack Faber, tutor of the lacrossmen, has only one defense regular left from last season and has only 8 of 17 letter men back. However, he is well supplied with attack players and will be able to devote his efforts to rebuilding the defense. He should have a good team. ‘Tennis, in which practice will start this week, should be on the upgrade this year with Leslie Bopst, associate man, in charge. He will have the best tennis squad that has played for Mary- land in years. 2 iy iy VIRGINIA HAS BRIGHT OUTLOOK FOR SPRING Outdcor Teams Must Score Often to Match Record Compiled by Indoor Combinations. IVERSITY, Va., March 11.—Uni- versity of Virginia Spring sport teams will have to travel at high speed to keep with the swift pace set by Cavalier indoor athletes. Virginia won Southern Conference championships in boxing and swimming and was runner-up in indoor track to make a better indoor sport showing than any other of the conference members. Before entering into competition for conference championships neither Vir- ginia’s boxers nor trackmen had been defeated. Though the basket ball five the tournament by the second place Duke team, the Virginia quint won 12 games and lost 5. Archie Hahn, coach of track, is ex- pecting his charges to do as well, it not better, outside than they did in- doors. He hopes that the addition of several weight men will round out the scoring strength of the squad. Duke topped the indoor track meet in Chapel Hill, scoring 42 points to Virginia’s 34, with North Carolina third by geaining 22!> points. The cavaliers are looking forward to mid- May, when they have gnother chance at Duke in the ccnference outdoor meet in Durham. A strong pitching staff is likely to help Virginia to a good base ball season, but the Cavalier nine can hardly hope to surpass their play of last Spring, when Gus Tebell's charges made the best record of any Cavalier base ball team in 40 years. Ward Brewer, co- captain; Preston Luck, George Fletcher and Orlin Rogers are the moundmen on whom Virginia will rely. Virginia's tennis team hopes for suc- season, but hardly against the North Carolina aces when time for tourna- ment play rolls around. —_— D. C.

OS ANGELES, March 11.— Name most any sport from foot ball to fencing and Uni- versity of Southern Cali- fornia followers of athletics will pop up with unimpeachable evi- dence to show that a Trojan team has won a championship at least once since 1930. Such is the record of an institution of higher learning which less than & decade 2go scarcely had been heard from outside the city limits of Los Angeles. The Trojan foot ball team won the Pacific Coast Conference title in 1931 and 1932 and the national title in 1931. There are many who consider the 1932 cleven, unbeaten and untied in 10 games, the Nation's championship ag- gregation. In 1925, 1926, 1930, 1931 and 1932 the Trojan tracksters brought home the 1 C.

N as dramatic and thrilling a con- test as ever was produced from Doc Naismith's gift to sport, George- town University last night closed the District's 1932-33 basket ball cam- paign by nosing out Carnegie Tech, 43 to 41, in an Eastern Intercollegiate League fray on the Tech High floor. Hundreds of the faithful crowded to the court lines during the closing min- q utes to witness Georgetown's revenge | for a previous defeat suffered in Pitts- | burgh by 32 to 28. ‘The victory was Georgetown's seventh in 17 starts this season and brought | thé Hoyas' league percentage to .500 | for eight games. The Hilltoppers fin- | ished fourth. ‘Georgetown was prepared to stop Bob Smith, Carnegle's forward, who was trailing only Red Rosan of Temple and Ed Hargaden of Georgetown in scoring in the league, but it wasn't Smith at all who nearly caused the Hilltop quint’s best effort of the sea- son to count for naught. The real fly n 's ointment was a cu- cumber-cool red head named Fergus, who missed only three of 17 shots, foul and from the fleld, all evening. He | scored 23 points. ' fact, Fergus stole the show from Hargaden, who was out to score 23 points and beat out Rosan for the scoring title. Hargaden came close with 17, and while the loser on total points, will show a higher percentage in that he played one less game than Rosan. rmegle, thanks to Fergus, who “pot- ted” baskets without a miss in the first half, held a 22-to-19 lead. A George- town rally, however, put the local col- legians in front. The Skibos also spurted, and neck-and-neck the smart- playing quints battled in the home stretch.' Fergus sank one from mid- floor with two minutes to go. The score stood 41 to 40 in favor of town. Hargaden sneaked in a snowbird to put Georgetown three points ahead, but Jagnow sank a foul to put the Plaid within reach again. ' ‘Then, with five seconds to go, Jagnow | tried a near-forward pass.

IDWEST foot ball fans are like- ly to see manifiold variations of the famous old “Minnesota =hift” next Fall. Four Western Conference elevens will be coached by three former University of Minnesota stars, who played on the 1912-13 elevens, and a former Owhfl'; coach. Bernle Blerman, head coach at Min- nesota; Ossle Solem, at the University of Iowa, and Clark Shaughnessy, re- cently appointed head coach at the| University of Chicago, all played to- gether under the late Dr. Henry L.| Williams, originator of the noted “Min- nesota shift.” Dr. Clarence W. Spears, Gopher tutor | from 1925 through 1929 and present head coach at the University of Wis- consin, is the other member of the quartet. c HAUGHNESSY, playing at end and tackle, was flanked by Solem at the other tackle on Minnésota's 1912 eleven. The following year Shaugh- nessy was switched to fullback, with Bierman at right half. Blerman was captain of the last Minnesota Big Ten championship team in 1915, and with him were Bert Bas- ton, all-America end, and George| Hauser, guard, who now are Bernie's chief assistants. ‘ Shaughnessy went to Tulane to coach | in 1915 and stayed there through 1926, | when he took over the head coaching position at Loyola of New Orleans.| Previous to leaving Tulanc he brought Bierman there as an aide, and when he left Bierman took over the head duties. Last year Bierman was re- called to Minnesota. Solem, after coaching at Drake for| several seasons, was named head coach at_Towa last year.
