PORTS. Hoya Alumni No Longer Askance as Hagerty THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C.- Proves He Can Handle Gridiron Situation BY ROD THOMAS. OHN LEO HAGERTY, 32 years old, from Roxbury, Mass., may not have a big winner this Fall as head coach at Georgetown but lay it on the line that, from a group of 44 gridders, including 31 varsity newcomers, he will fashion a team quite as strong as any other coach might with the same stuff and it will have a lot of fight. This is not a solitary optnion. It is; shared by knowing foot ball men who saw the young coach, in his first full | season in charge of the Georgetown squad, last year, build a commendable team around five men. These five were his only players of proved ability -when he started the campaign, yet the Hoyas came through with a winning record and forced a strong Maryland team to turn on all steam to emerge a 6-0 victory. Brought Up to Date. THE game itself is well known his- tory, but it produced an incident which, along with others of like naturc are having a current effect on the Georgetown foot ball situation.

Championships. | Spaniard Is Keen. ’ BY JOHN LARDNER. OREST HILLS, N. Y., Septem- ber 6.—Three special agents I of the Acme Diving Co. went , out in canoes to the spot where the center court of this famous old tennis arena is supposed to be and dropped a line. They were sur- prised to find that only about 10 fathoms of water lie above the sur- face of the sunken playing fleld. One of the divers, going down, re- ported that he saw traces of a base line, & net pole and the footprints aof the stars who played there ‘way back in the beginning of the week. He said the danger from sharks was Tegligible. “One strange thing,” he added, “is that diving experts may have ocen wrong for years about the place where the Lusitania went down. I don't say | for sure that the ship is located here | would have permitted the injured star in Forest Hills, but I saw something | to finish his career, as it would have between courts 1 and 2 that looked | been in this case, in a major battle. to be her stern cabin. Perhaps it Saverine turned out in grid togs. was just a lawn roller.” “Nothing doing, Joe; take ‘em off,” | ordered Hagerty. “But, coach,” implored the player, | “this is my last game. I know I can do all right.” “Sorry, Joe, you might; but this is only a sport. You've a life to {live and there’s no point in going | through it a cripple.” It would have meant a lot to Jack Hagerty to have won that game. He was under a one-year contract, you know. soon would be above the water level “Look at the way the water line | has receded along the Jersey coast in the last 20 years,” one of them re- marked. The other divers told him he said & mouthful. But, things being as they are, the tournaments are running behind schedule, The players loaf around the club house and wonder what will happen to their tennis form, so- called. They also talk about life and play cards. Frankie Parker has time to say that he will devote the rest of his life to the game in an effort to become & star. That may not be long enough. Helen Jacobs has time to announce that she will} never turn pro, no, not for $25,000— ' *at least, not right away.” | Fred Perry is hard to find on a rainy day, but then, Fred already has reached the quarter-finals and will not have to work again till they | find him another sucker. The sucker | is Frank Shields. If Frankie loses | he will have the consolation of know- ing that he passed his screen test while Perry flunked his. You can't do everything. The man players hustle and jockey e bit in the competition to date up Kay Stammers. Gregory Mangin | seems to have the inside track. Carolin Babcock, dark Californian, presents a testimonial to Mercer Beasley, the wizard teacher. “When Beasley was teaching me I didn't do so good,” she says. “Now that I've given up his course I rank No. 3 and probably will beat Helen Jacobs.” Beasley Great Thinker. THIS. of course, is not exactly fair to Mr. Beasley, my favorite tennis wizard. Maybe Miss Babcock would have done just as well if she'd re- mained under his tuition. Maybe her success is the result of his teaching. Maybe she won't beat Helen Jacobs in the first place. I still think that| Mr. Beasley is the greatest abstract| thinker in the game, bar none. | The betting in the men's depart- ! ment is all on Perry. Well, I won't deny that there are a few short-end bets on Budge. You've heard a lot about this fellow lately. He plays like Vines, some of his strokes are almost as powerful as Vines’. His build is much the same, and he has the same sort of match temperament. He is a livelier lad than little Ellie, | though. He grins and talks a lot| more. He couldn't talk less than Vines did as an amateur. | When the flood subsides, one of the best matches of the carnival will pit| our Wilmer Allison against Spain’s Enrique Maier. A comparative new- comer to these shores, as the saying goes, Senor Maier is hot as a prairie fire. The game needs another Span- jard to take the place of Manuel Alonso, chronic trouble-shooter of the ‘Tilden-Johnston era. Spaniards are| colorful. At least, they look colorful | to me, and the guide book says they ! are “of warm, lively temperament in | general and given to raising pigs and | cattle.” My guide book may be out of | date. | ‘Meanwhile, it goes on raining. Thzi divers are pretty sure the know where the center court is. They will drop an- other line, though, just to keep in touch with it. And there is always the possibility, as the fellow says, that the Lusitania lies somewhere nor’ by east of court 3 there, where the combers are breaking. (Copyright. 1935. by the North American Newspaper Alliance, Inc.) “Pd have busted both legs and maybe a neck any time at all for Hagerty,” sald Saverine later, with moist optics. And that’s the way the Hilltop foot ballers, it seems to a man, regard the young coach who took over a floundering outfit in midseason of 1933 while Georgetown alumni held their tongues in their cheeks. Father Kehoe Guesses Rightly. THEY don't do that now. They're commending Father John Kehoe, faculty adviser of athletics, for a somewhat daring move that brought | Hagerty back to, the surroundings in which he once was a foot ball idol.

In three years of varsity play at safety he never fumbled a punt. The pro New York Giants used to substitute Hagerty for the renowned Chris Cagle for the express purpose of returning kicks. He was the lightest player in the professional league, too, at 167 pounds. He was an ace on the 1925 George- town team which Lou Little, now of Columbia, acknowledges to be the best he ever coached, superior even to the Lions of 1933, who won the Rose Bowl game. Little's style of foot ball, in the main, is being taught now by Hagerty, but he goes about it in a way opposite from Lou's. Little is a driver. He drives so hard sometimes that we've wondered that some of his charges don’t rebel. Hagerty is forceful, but quiet. He has the knack of teaching. Also he has the personal welfare of his men at heart at all times, And they have his, you bet. Kaufman Can Be Tough. Joe Kaufman, George Washington sophomore halfback, doesn't look it ordinarily, but he can be a tough hombre. In his freshman year Joe's aggressiveness and enthusiasm was | mistaken by some of the Colonials for “cockiness” and in scrimmage | some of the varsity gave him the works. But Joe not only came up for more, with a grin, but gave as much as he took. They “lay off” the young New Yorker now and Joe is far from being the least popular member of | the squad.

While not disclosing all details of the offensive innovation, Pixlee did announce that the team will come out of a huddle, line up in three groups and then shift into various formations just before the snap of the ball. He added that he is not quite certain that the change can be perfected satis- factorily. but that a great deal of time will be spent in practicing it before the opening game with Emory and Henry on September 27. concerned for this year, they are over, ( for the hot weather left won't be hot enough to do any damage.

Army-Navy Final May Offset. Rating of Women Racketers ARA MOORE and Edith Clarke play for the championship of the Army-Navy Club’s invita- tion tennis tournament tomor- row afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. Such 8 prosaic announcement seems prosaic enough until it is realized that the circumstances are fraught with pos- sibilities of re-arranging the entire set-up for women's rankings for the 1935 season. It may be a bit late in the year for such a possibility to develop and ’tis true that one tournament does not a | season make, but right now Miss Clarke stands a good chance of being proclaimed one of the three best women players in the city through her showing on the Arlington County courts, Ranked no better than fourth by tournament officials who installed as the favorite Margaret Anderson of Richmond, Miss Clarke, a slugging type of racketer, has marched through four matches without losing a set, and only Miss Anderson was able to ex- tend her in any way. The only bit of pressure -the new threat to women's tennis was forced to apply came in the first set of the match with Miss Anderson which she won, 6—4. Thep she proceeded to trounce the Virginia lass by a love score. Aside from that semi-final match, the new “blond bomber” has dropped . but two games, in blasting her way to | victory in six sets. Eleanor Craven | won both of those games in the quar- | ter-final match which was decided, {6—1, 6—1. Miss Clarke previously | had defeated Jane Ann Greasebar and Prances Hollender in love sets. Now, the daughter of the new com- { mandant of the Marine Barracks | stands on the threshold of a cham- pionship with only Sara Moore in her | way. True, that is & formidable ob- stacle, but Sara plays her least im- pressive tennis against the type of player exemplified by Miss Clarke, as witnessed by her two defeats at the hands of another slugger, Mary Cootes. But Sara's not going to let that No. 1 or 2 ranking this season slip | out of her hands without a struggle.

Out at the Indian Spring Country Club, where Roger Peacock developed the game which may bring him fame in the national championship next week, there is a group of par-busters who form just about the toughest collection of hard golf nuts you ever SAW. Nary a one of them who cannot fiing a 71 or 72 up against the score card any time he starts; and every one who goes to Indian Spring to try conclusions with this bunch of 20- minute eggs has come away with the same idea, to wit: That if you want to win a match at Indian Spring start asking for a handicap long before you reach the first tee. ‘There are about a dozen of them and any cne of them can touch off a low -scoring fuse.
