Camp GETS FOURFIRSTS - FORWINNING AGS Svessed by Leverton, Who Earns Second Place for Investigation. OGER LEVERTON, Richmond University's four-letter star | last year and one of the best all-'round athletes ever turned out in local circles, met his conqueror yesterday. It took the 1934 decathlon champion, Arnold Preheim, former Yankton College star, considered by many as Olympic timber, to do it, however. Preheim, rugged, bronzed athlete representing the Department of Ag- riculture, led his team to a one-sided victory in the second annual Govern- ment track and field meet at Central | Stadium by placing first in four field events while finishing second in the broad jump to score 23 of the Aggies’ 116 points. Bureau of Investigation, despite the presence of J. Edgar Hoover, chief of the Federal sleuths, could muster but 27 points, 21 of which were scored by the tow-headed Leverton. Not until the final event was Pre- heim's supremacy established. Tied with 18 points apiece, Leverton and Preheim matched throws in the dis- | cus event, which was won by the na- | tional champ with a heave of 125 feet 6 inches. Oliver Not Pressed.

He has found his timing with the backs it more precise when pulling out of the line than | he did last season. Dranginis seems to have landed the disputed quarterback position. Pete has been improving right along, and has shown the coaches that he is going to be one of the spearheads of a lateral pass attack. Al Secino evidently has warded off the injury jinx that hounded him throughout the 1934 season. Secino has been showing up well lately. The new Bergman shift has sped up the hard running Italian. | Low-Down on Some of ‘Bergman Plans a Big Shake-Up Ex-Terp “Fills” Of His First String Grid Team| Brother’s Shoes IEWIS (KNOCKY) THOMAS, ) ace back at Maryland in 1924, ‘25 and ‘26, yesterday filled the foot ball shoes of his young broth- er Fred (Little Knocky) Thomas as the Terps scrimmaged with Cathoe lic U, Little Knocky, Maryland soph, who had his appendix removed Friday morning at Emergency Hos- pital, was not at College Park yes- terday, of course, but he left his shoes behind.

Coincidentally, the Maryland manager brought forth some temporarily discarded by his brother. MIDDIES PRESSED BY PLEBE ELEVEN Varsity Is Forced to Take to Air to Score Twice in Scrimmage. NNAPOLIS, Md., September 14 —The Navy Varsity, slightly changed from last week and bearing the earmarks of the team which will start against William and Mary on September 28, was given Richard (Red) Oliver, who won the 100-yard dash, and Miss "C0ACH DISPLEASED' WITH SECOND TEAM Must Have Better Reserves if Colonials Are to Go Places, He Thinks. BY ROD THOMAS. IM PIXLEE is so dissatisfied with his George Washington foot ball team he's ordered an extra week of work at Camp Letts, it was announced yesterday. ‘The Colonials will fight each other until September 23 or 24 for the priv- ilege of playing regularly through the biggest schedule any Washington eleven has braved in modern times. Outsiders, watching the doings down in the Rhodes River retreat, have been impressed with the power of the squad that will battle Alabama Oc- tober 5 in the Capital's first major foot ball game of the season, but Pix- lee sees things lacking. Since camp opened “Possum Jim" aad his aides, Len Walsh, Bill Rein- hart and Bill Myers, have aimed to develop first-class reserves in the be- lief that only high-calibered reinforce- ments will make possible a successful campaign. But so far the second and third string warriors have failed to measure up to Pixlee’s demands. Only Backs in Doubt. ’I‘HE starting line-up is about settled except for one or two backfield positions. On the ends probably will be Hank Vcnder Bruegge and Orville Wright; in the tackles, Harry Dem- ing, captain, and Dale Prather; in the guards, Sid Kolker and Andy Horne; at center, Red Rathjen; at quarter- back, Tuffy Leemans: left half, Bruce Mahan; right half, Ray Hanken and fullback, Lou Carroll. Before the opener with Emory and Henry here on September 28 Pixlee may switch Leemans back to half- back and promote Ben Plotnicki, & lad who showed flashes of first-rate ability Jast season and has been step- ping lively lately, from the second- string team to regular quarterback. In this event Mahan would step aside for Leemans. Also Ross Marshall. now nursing an arm injury, or Herb Reeves, a halfback last vear, may supplant Carroll at full, although the latter has been performing impres- sively. In vain Pixlee searches for ends, tackles and centers who can jump into action without weakening the team when the first stringers need relief. | Both Vonder Bruegge and Wright are experienced flankmen, but neither is qualified physically, it seems, to stand | up under 60 minutes of hard battling, | especially with Alabama, Rice Insti- tute and a number of other tough teams furnishing the opposition. The best of the reserve ends apparently are Leon Morris and Deverne Liddi- coat. sophomores, but these two have much to learn, Prather Fully Recovered. DUFF STEPS C. U. Tops Terps In Sluggish Tilt ATHOLIC U. and Maryland scrimmaged for the third time this season at College Park yes- terday and while the Cards had the better of the argument, there was something laggard in the play of both squads. In fact, the boys appeared as if they had just a little too much foot ball during the week. C. U’s running attack was not as flashy as usual, but it com- pleted enough forward passes at right times to make considerable ground during the afternoon. The Cards’ offense was smoother than the Terps and the latter, while making some good runs and put- ting across a couple aerials, was far from consistent on attack. In fact, the Maryland plays were gummed up quite often. BEST WINGBACKS MAIN WORRY FOR TERPS Tentative First Two Teams Contain 15 Letter Men. , Thomas’ Loss Hurts. NIVERSITY OF MARYLAND'S foot ball squad is suffering from acute wingback prob. lems but otherwise the Terp grid hopes have not been lowered by | two weeks of practice and three scrim- | mages with Catholic U. | Coaches Faber, Dodson and Mack- ert were feeling right chipper about this situation until Pred (Little Knocky) Thomas was sheived for the season last Friday from an appendi- citis operation. He had won himself the envied place of backing up Bill Guckeyson in the left halfback job. INHOYABATTLES Substitute Fullback Stars as Blue and Gray Puts on Two Scrimmages. EORGETOWN UNIVER- SITY'S foot ball players ves- terday proved themselves “gluttons for punishment” when willingly they battled through two foot ball games. one a full-time affair, held in the morning, and the other a contest of three quarters, staged in the afternoon. The B squad beat the A outfit by 6-0 in the first on a well-sustained drive featuring the open field running of Alex Urbanski and Tom Keating and a pass from Len Scalzi to Bill Duff over the goal line. Don Gibeau held Coach Hagerty's eye with his pass defense play and Mike Petroskey and Clem Stralka with their per- formances in the line. Tackling Displeases. BUT Hagerty wasn't satisfied with the tackling and ordered the war- riors out for another go at things. In the afternoon session each team scored a touchdown for a 6-6 tie. Tom Keating ran the A squad and Bob Nolan the B. A 20-yard pass from Keating to Snyder after a long drive got & touchdown for the A's and the B's got even when Cavadine blocked Ferrara’s punt on the 3-yard line and gave the oval to Urbanski for a suc- cessful line buck. The Hoyas on the whole gave a smoother exhibition in the afternoon acrimmage than in the morning’s, but the timing of the backfield and the co- ordination of, the linemen were not consistent. A few more scrimmages are expected to correct these faults. Duff Is Shining Light. Bill Duff, substitute fullback, was outstanding in both games. He made | several long gains and backed up the With Thomas out, it appears as if his pal, Waverly Wheeler, who is just getting back into action after pull- ing a leg tendon in a base ball game, | would get the vacated berth. However, | the loss of Thomas made serious the | shortage of wingback material. Makes Definite Move, FOLLDWING the loss of Thomas | and looking to task of melding a ‘um' for the opening tilt with St John's, September 28 end the nine major games that follow, the coaches, after a long confab, picked two teams as a basis of operations. They are: First team—Vic Willis (193) and Louis Ennis (186), ends; John Birk- lend (192) and Carl Stalfort (192), tackles; Ed Minion (194) and Bill Wolfe (186), guards; Bill Andorks (168), center; Coleman Headley (168), quarter; Bill Guckeyson (185) and George Sachs (186), halfbacks; John Gormley (183), fullback. Second team—Blair Smith (170) and Bernie Buscher (183), ends; Al Farrell (202) and Charlie Callahan (201), tackles; Ed Fletcher (180) and Mike Burgent (190), guards; Charlie Ellinger (168), quarter; Waverly Wheeler (163) and Jack Stonebarker | (151), halfbacks, Ed Daly (183), full- back.

In the second combination, Buscher, Callahan, Ellinger, Stonebark- er and Daly are 1934 letter men, Far- rell, who won his in 1933, and Fletcher just missed out last Fall and Smith Surgent, De Armey and Wheeler are sophs. Ellinger, although assigned with the second team, will play a No. 1 role He will be the only back to learn three positions and will be the ace pinch hit- | ter. Last year when he earned his letter as.an end and back he easily assimilated the plays from the wing and two backfield berths.
