And Pixlee’s renewed strength, it’s easy to think, may make a distmcz‘; difference in the fortunes of George . ‘Washington's foot ball team.

IXLEE knew at the end of last season that George Washington would go nowhere in particular this Fall without a new backfield, so he spent most of his time on the Coast with Bill Reinhart, recently hired backfield coach, who lives in Port- land. Reinhart will report at the Colonials’ training station, Camp Letts, with complete knowledge of what he is to do and with some sound tips on how to do it. Pixlee went over a sheaf of plays with him and almost made him personally ac- quainted with all the players he’ll have to work with. It was easy for Pixlee to pass along his stuff to Reinhart, for Jim was Bill's first foot ball coach. In 1913 Reinhart was quarterback on the Salem, Oreg., High School coached by Pixlee, who at the same | time played for the famous Multi- nomah A. C.

Division Bill went to Oregon Univer- sity, where he starred in foot ball. “He was one of the few quarterbacks I ever saw,” said Pixlee, “who could be given the general plan of a football game and carry it out without detailed instructions.” | With Pixlee master-minding, Rein- | hart will have charge of the back- fleld and Len Walsh, now in Govern- | ment service as a lawyer, the ror-“ wards, Roland Logan again will be | the trainer but will not report untii | the Boston Red Sox have finished | their season. It Won't Be Long. SIX weeks from yesterday, the Colo- | nials will meet the Rose Bowl winner of 1934, Alabama, at Griffith Stadium, in their second game of the season. The opener will be with Emory and Henry, which G. W. doesn't | regard as a set-up. So the boys will go to camp Labor day bent upon using every minute of practice time to the fullest advantage. Reinhart's job will be extremely im- portant. The Colonials, to succeed, must have a couple of first-rate backs to team with Tuffy Leemans and | of the 14 newcomers to the ball-tot- ing department he figures to find them. But, as Pixlee said yesterday, it may be no cinch. He thought he had sufficient backfield stuff last year to get over. but Leemans alone de- livered up to expectations. With last year's backfield holdovers battling to stick, some of them may solve the difficulty. Among the sophomores scrapping for regular assignments will be Kaufman, De Angelus, White, Williams, Welsh and Mahan, and all showed up well as freshmen. Pixlee seems never to be without an {dea and, as usual, several training innovations will be tried at Camp Letts. And if the Colonials run true to form a lot of guys will be busted 'up before the regular campaign, trying to make the team. Harry Deming, captain, may have a little trouble getting into shape. This accomplished scholar, between working as night watchman at George ‘Washington and studying for more degrees, averages about flve hours sleep a night and, at 217 pounds, 1s 18 under playing weight. “I'll get that back in a hurry at Camp Letts,” he promises.

The team headed by Ragonnet, who completed his “blue” or fourth-year course at Fort George G. Meade this Summer, will be composed of 11 men who were selected by Maj. Gen. Robert E. Callan, corps area commander, from some 3,600 trainees encampe: in Pennsylvania, Maryland and Vir- ginia. All hail from Fort Meade. They will compete against similar teams selected from C. M. T. Camps in each of the eight other corps areas of the country. They are to be pro- vided with transportation from their | homes to Camp Perry and return and, in addition, will receive an allowance for meals en route and at the camp.

Tulane Also Gets Place on 1938 Grid List—Terps Carded. CHAPEL HILL, N. C, August 22 (#)—The University of North Caro- lina in 1936 will play a 10-game foot ball schedule, including New York Untversity and Tulane. Other teams on the 1936 schedule will be Tennessee, Maryland, Virginia, South Carolina, North Carolina State, Davidson, Wake Forest and Duke. Georgia Tech and V. M. I, on this year’s schedule, will not be met in 1936. The Tar Heels never before have played N. Y. U. in foot ball. The last time North Carolina played Tulane it defeated the Greenies at New Orleans in a post-season game in 1922. WINS CASTING CONTEST Mrs. Liotta Scores in National Association Event. MILWAUKEE, August 24 () — Mrs. Ernest Liotta of Cleveland won the women’s accuracy cast with a va- ounce bait in the National Associa- tion of Scientific Angling Clubs’ tour- nament here today. Her score of 95 was one short of the record set last year by Mrs. Walter Mewes of Milwaukee. Mrs. Mewes placed second today with 94. Mrs. Howart Chatt of Chicago was third with 92.

The middies will also attend the game with Notre Dame in Balti- more on October 6 and the Prince- ton game on November 2. ‘The regiment will, of course, at- tend the Annapolis games in a body.

The kicking should be well taken care of by Co-Capt. Joe Meglen and Frank Hashey, a sophomore. Meglen did yeoman work for the Hoyas last year and during Spring practice im- proved by leaps and bounds. Hashey has proved that he can be relied upon to do some of the booting, as his per- formances in the three freshman games show. Cummings, Vaccaro Strong. 'Y CUMMINGS and Al Vaccaro, both regulars on last year’s eleven, seem to have the best chances to land the tackle berths. Vaccaro injured a Many C. U. Gridders to Report Almost in Trim to Play Game EELING the urge to start foot ball training, many of the Catholic - University grid can- didates are expected to trickle into town the early part of the week. Several of the Cardinal gridders who have been working in the Gov- ernment during the Summer have spent much time the past two weeks limbering up on the heavily sodded C. U. field. Most noticeable of this group are Capt.-elect Ed Karpowich, tackle; Shag Shaughnessy, fullback; Max Brinkman, quarterback, and Zeke Brown, end.

The accom- panying article went on to say that Adamaitis seldom misses a day’s prac- tice, and that he spends considerable time each morning brushing up on his forward passing. Several of the other men informed Bergman during the Summer that they have been working with road gangs or as life guards or at camps and consequently have had the bene- fits of indirect training. With but four returning members of the squad seniors, a pitched fight by sophomores and juniors for posi- tions will start immediately. When asked whom he believed to be the dark horses of the team this year, Bergman calmly stated, “all of them.” However, it is believed that the sophomores, Irish Carroll, Dixie Walk- er and Bud Munhall will be outstand- ing candidates for backfield positions, while Vic Soshon, Leo Katalinas and John Chludenski appear likely to dislodge the so-called “regular line- men."” Bergman stated that work will start Labor day morning, with daily drills in the morning and afternoon until the start of the school year, Tuesday, September 24. One major chore that the Cardinal coach must clear up this week is the sppointment of a new end tutor to take the place left vacant by the departure of George Vik to Tulsa. Al- a score of received.
