He singled out another sophomore, bailiwick. Together they attended Theodore Roosevelt High School in foot ball players in the great city this was no minor distinction. Coaches Like 'Em. TOGETHER they may transform the George Washington eleven, a Grade A-minus outfit last season, into & topnotcher. A conviction that this will be the case seems to be growing | in the minds of the Colonial coaches— | Jim Pixlee, head man; Len Walsh, in charge of the line; Bill Reinhart and | Bill Myers, backfield tutors; Bill Par-| rish, helping with the ends, and Hank‘y Strayer, handling the guards. Parrish eand Strayer were Colonial stars last year. Kaufman's daddy is engaged in the manufacture of shrouds for dead folk, but there was nothing remindful of the deceased in the actions this morn- ing of young Joe. With more than 95 varsity and freshman players on hand | he was a dominant figure—170 pounds | of pepper and ability. There was no doubt of his ability to throw a foot ball, nor of Yurwitz's skill in catching | one, They pitched and caught Roose- | velt High to the championship of New | York, and it is on record that Kauf- man fired the oval 60 yards and Yur- witz caught it for a touchdown to give the pair a city all-high mark for & direct aerial gain. Today they were | impressive in this specialty. Leemans Sees Help. WITH especial interest, Tuffy Lee- mans, probably the finest back in George Washington history, eyed the workout of Kaufman. “He really can run and throw that | ball,” said Leemans, “as we found out when he was a freshman.” | And Leemans, lion-hearted work- | horse of the backfield last year, ap- peared somehow grateful that Kauf- man was on hand. He didn’t say it but one thought with him: “Maybe there'll | be some help back there this time.” Yurwitz may be of more importance in the development of the 1935 George ‘Washington team than Kaufman. The Colonials have lots of backfield ma- terial, but ends are scarce.

He is hopped up over the Co- lonials’ opportunity to climb this season and wants to do his bit. Bene- field was ill or injured through a large part of last season and might be handi- capped in regaining fettle for the com- ing campaign, one of the toughest the | Colonials have faced, what with the Alabama game, a highlight of the foot ball season in Washington, coming four weeks from next Saturday. “So Yurwitz's value is inestimable. Leemans pushed a lawn mower all Summer at Allouez, Wis., and kept busy otherwise, but turned up scaling 193 | pounds. His playing weight last year was 188. There is no discernible fat on him. ANOTHER NAVY INGRAM Bill, Son of Capt. Jonas, in Line to Take Borries’ Place. Epecial Dispatch to The Star. ANNAPOLIS, Md., September 3.— Young Bill Ingram, son of Capt. Jonas Ingram, former player, coach and athletic director at the Naval Acad- emy, and nephew and namesake of | Navy Bill Ingram, former player and | coach, has been definitely assigned by the coaches as a candidate for this year's team in the halfback position filled by Buzz Borries, now graduated. Other possibilities in place of the great Buzz, all-American back, are Spead Schmidt and Ned Thomas of last year’s varsity squad and Bobby Edwards, who did well as a plebe two years ago, but was kept out of the game last season by illness. 16 IN HORSESHOE MEET Two Former Champions to Pitch in Colored Tourney.

At College Park seven of the nine mlssing men were expected to report for the second day of practice and thereby bring the squad to 41 candi- dates. Two other Terrapins, Jack Stonebraker and Charlie Keller, have been excused until the end of the week to get in a few more licks at base ball. George Washington’s gigantic train- ing squad of varsity and freshman candidates alike was to be increased by the addition of George Jenkins, back, and Tim Stapleton and Tom O'Brien, linemen. The Colonials’ 98- man squad is quartered once again at Camp Letts, Md. Over at Georgetown Coach Jack Hegarty was to turn on the heat to- day with a program designed for bet- ter tackling, while at Catholic Univer- | sity it was hoped weather conditions would improve so that the squad could move from the gymnasium to the stadium. The Cards’ practice yester- day was held indoors. ‘A U. Joins Toiling Grid Array, C.

The outdoor session included a series of fundamentals and wound up with three teams running through formations for half an hour. Ed Karpowich, captain and tackle, was the only important absentee when the Cardinals held their first drill in the Catholic University gymnasium. Karpowich had the permission of Coach Dutch Bergman t6 linger over the holiday at home. Bergman prcbably will have to cone fine the second day of drilling to the gymnasium, partly due to the pros- pect of inclement weather and partly to the condition of the renovated practice field, which is dotted with small stones at the present time. Two new members of the coaching staff made their debuts at the Card- inal workout. They were Tom Whalen | and Vinnie Fraatz, freshman back- field coach and varsity line ccach, respectively. Whalen, however, will| continue with the varsity until the start of the academic year, at which time he will issue the call for fresh- man players. STRAIGHT OIr THE TEE by W.

J., ended all square with Al Houghton and George Diffenbaugh, Indian Spring pros. Peacock scored a 73, with Diffenbaugh and Thompson ty- ing for iow at 70. All scores were synthetic, for plenty of lengthy putts were conceded. Jimmy Thompson really had little chance to strut his long-hitting wares because of bad weather, but he got hold of three or four tee shots for distances which had a -small gallery gasping as he outranged the best ef- forts of the others by as much as 60 yards. On the third hole Jimmy cracked one which in dry weather would have ended close to the green. As it was it traveled over the soggy ground for some 325 yards. He banged one on the seventh which carried 280 yards, and knocked a 7 jron pin high. On the eleventh he was so far down he played his second shot with an 8 iron, and at the fif- teenth he was home with a 4 iron. So long was Jimmie from the tee that his longest club on the par 4 holes was a 7 iron. Disappointed by the soggy, rainy day, Picard and Thompson promised to come back and repeat the match on September 22, which is a Sunday, and the day following the closing of more than a single hole advantage at any time. The invaders sprung into a lead by winning the second, only to have Diffenbaugh square with a holed chip shot for a bird 3 at the fifth. They halved all the holes until the thirteenth, where Houghton put his side in the lead with a bird 3, only t0 have Thompson come back to win the fourteenth with a deuce.

OUTH BEND, Ind, September 3—Elmer Layden has about decided he will have to take some libertles with the Notre Dame foot ball system handed down by Knute Rockne this season. Faced with as tough a schedule as any Irish squad has dared, and unex- pectedly deprived of stars on whom he had counted, Layden contemplates further development of a “weak side” attack. Almost without exception, Notre Dame’s great teams of the past ran most of their plays to the right, with the left halfback carrying the ball. S Last year, however, when the ortho- dox attack falled to function con- sistently, Layden switched, shooting more plays to the left. The result was that a right halfback,”George Melin- kovich, did more running and less blocking and became the team's lead- ing ground gainer and scorer. Layden to Use Brother. LAYDEN S younger brother Mike, as *“ Melinkovich'’s first understudy, came in for a share of the honors. and is likely to be even better this year. Layden, although about as pessimis- tic as even coaches ever become, is not particularly worried over his backs. The line problem, however, has him guessing. Only Wayne Millner, an end, and Tackle Joe Michuta of the five linemen Layden had planned on are back. Capt.-elect Joe Sullivan died last March. Jack Robinson was declared ineligible for having played five minutes of a “B” team game in 1931. Bill Smith, a veteran guard, was lost through illness. “We have good backs,” Layden said, “put they can’t get anywhere unless we can patch up the line. The loss' of Sullivan, Robinson and Smith upset most of my plans. Must Find New Leader. “WE NOT only lost a great tackle when Sullivan died, but our sparkplug as well. We will have to find a new leader, which will be as hard as filling in the uncertain spots in the line.” The schedule: September 28, Kan- sas at Notre Dame; October 5, at Car- negie Tech; October 12, at Wisconsin; October 19, Pittsburgh at Notre Dame; October 26, Navy at Baltimore; No- vember 2, at Ohio State; November 9, Northwestern at Notre Dame; Novem- ber 16, Army at New York; November 23, Southern California at Notre Dame.

DEPARTMENT OF AGRICUL- TURE'S soft ball team was imbued with two motives today as it awaited the hour of 5 pm. when it was to tackle the Sport Center outfit on Monument diamond No. 10. The first, of course, was the cham- pionship of the city's soft ball series. But the Aggies are looking ahead to tomorrow when they are to meet the crack Young Democrats ten from ‘Topeka, Kans., in a nocturnal game at Griffith Stadium. The Democrats are coming here with a record of 30 victories in 54 games this season. Walter Johnson has been asked to throw out the first ball to Winfree Johnson, the city’s soft ball commis- sioner. The game will begin at 8:30, preceded an hour earlier by an ex- hibition between Grosner's All-Stars and District Works. Abe Rosenfield is expected to pitch for the locals tomorrow night although he was slated to hurl in the cham- plonship encounter today. Opposing him for the Westerners will be Ray Dollard, who has won 38 games in 39 starts. Today’s game was to find Rosenfield opposed by Bunker Hill, attempting | an upset in handing Aggies their first | defeat of the year. ROSS LISTS GARCIA.

EW YORK, September 3.— While the world series will, s usual, occupy the spotlight in late September and early October, never in all history has foot ball submitted such a challenge to the national pastime, Searching the annals of the grid- fron game we fail to find a season approaching that of 1935 in its prom- ise of a resounding getaway. September 21 wil! see, among others, & struggle of more than local interest in the meeting of Virginia and William and Mary. But the following week, September 28, will see real pyrotechnics. Ne- braska versus Chicago at Chicago. How is that for an attraction? The cornhuskers are going to be a formid- able combination this year while Chi- cago, with the Great Berwanger, will | make trouble for all October oppo- | nents, after which, in view of a small squad, the Maroons probably will burn out. Prominent Early Games. THEN Oklahoma against Colorado at Boulder is another game which will not be overlooked. Luster of this contest, however, will be dimmed by the Notre Dame-Kansas affray. Notre Dame? The team will have a splendid backfield, but the line is worrying Elmer Layden a lot. Rice meets Louisiana State on Sep- tember 28 and Ralph Sasse’s Missis- sippi State outfit—powerful, they say —will tackle Vanderbilt. Then, October 5, Princeton and Pennsylvania at Princeton will draw a capacity crowd, 58,000. Fordham and Boston College will engage wide public interest; California and St. Mary’s come to grips on the coast and Notre Dame will try to take the meas- ure of Carnegie Tegh. Nebraska and | Iowa State will thrill the tall corn belt while Marquette-Wisconsin and } Michigan-Michigan State and Purdue- Northwestern round out a list of con- tests, which will surely divide news- paper space with the two nines in- volved in the world series. | Notre Dame Line Hit. § TO Notre Dame her line situa- tion is really serious. The death of Capt. Joe Sullivan last Spring left an apparently irremediable hole at left tackle. Discovery that Jack Rob- inson, the great center, had played for a few minutes on Notre Dame's team B in 1932, has made him ineligi- ble for the coming season and now Bill smith, varsity right guard, one of the best, has undergone an operation, which will render him unable to phy foot ball this year. While the situation thus, emphasis will be placed upon the coaching of the line, where Joe Boland will have the opportunity of his life to make | a big reputation, or, on the other { hand, to cause yearning at South Bend ror those two super-line coaches, Hunk Anderson and Tom Lieb. At Yale it is regarded as doubtful how early Kim Whitehead, recovering | from an appendicitis operation, will be able to take his place in the line-up | and Beckwith, the center, is said to be under the scholastic ban.

HICAGO, September 3.—Fol- lowers of professional foot ball are going to hear a lot of Wild Willlam Shepherd, the former Western Marylander, who soon will be playing for the Boston Redskins. ‘Wild . William will speak for himself on the gridiron and George Preston Marshall, owner of the Redskins and owuer-to-be of the Boston Braves, will speak for him out of working hours. When last seen, Mr. Marshall was talking of nothing but Wild William Shepherd and had not yet warmed up to his theme. Your correspondent, who never saw Shepherd play for Western Maryland, received first information of the man’s foot ball genius last Winter when Andy Kerr and Dick Hanley came down to Los Angeles, following the East-West Shrine Hospital game in San Pragcisco. The East lost but Messrs, Kerr and Hanley skipped that to talk of William Shepherd. In the All-Star-Bear game last Priday night, your correspondent found that Messrs. Kerr and Hanley had not been guilty of exaggeration. should have been an All- 28th & M N.W. out of line when they skipped him. Shepherd is a fast and powerful run- ner, who takes advantage of every g. His passing and kicking are only fair but he will get by on his runnin, g. He was the outstanding star of the All-Stars and second in ground gain- ing to Beatty Feathers of the profes« sicoals, only because he did mot re- ceive the same brand of blocking. Behind the Bears' line, Shepherd probably would have gone farther than Feathers and the former Ten- nessee star is rated the best runner in the professional league.
