WORLD SERIES The Foening Sk Spocls WASHINGTON, D. C, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1935, * Opening Batle Fails to Determine Strength of George Washingion Eleven ALABAMA SCRAP WILL TELL STORY Colonials Use Only Their Old Stuff in Beating Wasps, 12 to 0. BY ROD THOMAS. WHL‘K’HER George Washing- ton has started upon its 1935 foot ball with one of the strongest teams in its history, as some sup- | posed it would be, or with just another fancily dressed eleven, won't be known until next Saturday when the Colo- nials attempt to stem the famed Crim- son Tide of Alabama at Griffith Stadium. In beating a scrappy, outweighed Emory and Henry team last night, 12 to 0, in its opener, George Washing- ton revealed little of the stuff that engaged it for six gruelling weeks in training camp. A new shift the Co- Ionials apparently mastered and a bunch of new plays learned at Camp Letts were saved from the eyes of the Alabama scout. What the scout likely will report to | Coach Thomas at Tuscaloosa is that George Washington next Saturday | will present a big line, strong defen- sively, but lacking speed, and a back- | field consisting of Tuffy Leemans and Ben Plotnicki. All Leemans Again. O ENEMY of George Washington need be warned of Leemans, who starts his quest for all-America honors | in his senior year in perfect physical fettle and full of fire, with every in- dication of being a better foot ball player even than he was last year when virtually a one-man backfield. ‘Whether Leemans will get some much promised help also may be de- termined by the battle with Alabama. He got less last night than might have been expected by a great back, when he scored one touchdown and passed for another to give the Colo- nials victory by a surprisingly small score over an Emory and Henry team minus three regulars. But for penalties, however, the count would have been another touch- down greater. center, intercepted a pass and ran half the field's length across the goal, | but the ball was called back and the It was one of | Colonials penalized. ten penalties charged against the Buff and Blue for a total loss of 70 yards.

Actually the drive was one of 75 yards. They scored from midfield on eight | plays in the opening quarter, with Leemans either carrying the ball or passing it on seven occasions. The oval was on the Wasps' 8-yard line when Leemans fired a scoring pass to Ray Hanken. Tuffy also accounted for nearly all the yardage when the Colonials, in the third period, drove from their 25- yard line to a touchdown, clipping off gains of from 1 to 17 yards and failing to advance appreciably only twice. A pass from Leemans to Ab Wright, end, ate up 23 yards and a 17- yard run by Tuffy put the Colonials within easy scoring distance. ace back shot off tackle for 7 yards and apparently a touchdown, but for | the second time the Colonials fruit- lessly dented the end zone.

HARRY DEMING, captain and tackle, who kicked 91 placemen‘ goals in 100 tries in a Camp Letts test, blew both the extra points last night with Leemans holding the ball. Plotnicki came to life with a bang in the third quarter when he ran for successive gains of 18 and 17 yards after passing to Wright for one of 18. But with another marker in sight, the Colonials were held for downs on the Wasp 17. If you were among the 9,000 who saw the game, the largest crowd ever to witness an opener here, a flock of | those tackles you “eard described over the loud speaker for Deming were | made by Cottingham at left guard and Rathjen at center. But Deming played his customary | smashing game, in spite of a training camp injury whicl. still is painful. It was Deming who ended the Wasps' only real scoring thréat, in the fourth stanza, by smearing Peidy for a 12-: yard loss on a pass attempt after the | visitors had reached the G. W. 16-yard | line. Emory and Henry presented a crack a at right end. He did most of the ‘Wasps' punting and more than pass- figly well. Little Sam Keys was a busy guy in the invaders’ backfield. Mark Kegley, heralded Wasp star, had little part in the battle. Here are the statistics: s G.W. EH.

C. Trotter, third | man in the ring at Joe Louis’ wedding, stood in front of Joe's headquarters the day after the fight and switched on a spacious smile. Mr. Trotter was happy, because he heard nothing but praise for the smooth and workmaulike job of han- dling the clinch. “Very glad to see you,” seid Mr. | Trotter. *Splendid day.” It was a splendid day, no doubl about it. Joe Louis said the same | thing, but his mind wasn't on the | weather. He talked about base ball. | He said he would get back to Detroit | right away and catch that world series | from the best box in the house. The new Mrs. Louis, Mr. Trot- ter's sister, said nothing.

Dunno how { many times I hit him, but he took a long time going down. Part of the | fight I hit him in the stomach be- | cause his jaw was just so hard on my | hands.” A Routine Fight to Joe. F YOU think Joe has any conception of what he did against Baer, of the beauty, the economy, the sheer classic simplicity of his performance, youre wrong. It's all instinct. The | intelligence is physical, not mental. If Joe could write like Shakespeare, his story of the fight would still be rotten. So would anybody else’s, barring Shakespeare. A spectacle | like that is indescribable. But I mean that Joe doesn’t even know there was anything to describe He thought it was a rousine prize fight. “Tell you one thing about Baer,” said Joe. “If he could learn to cover up against a left, he'd still make » preity good fighter. He <an punch and take it” But Baer is not an interesting topic. Louis is the topic, the child of des- tiny, the man of today, tomorrew and the day after that—right up to 1940, in fact. The year 1940 is the one mentioned in the contract to which Mike Jacobs sewed the Bomber up, tighter than a but- ton, after the fight. He's Mike's fighter until then. When T heard this I thought once more of the foolish promise Joe made a few 1 Louis Fights So Instinctively He Can’t Tell How He So Masterfully Beat Baer. 5 Mrs. Louis went home from the Baer | | nickel in the till with all the good | & PRESS BOX LARDNER. months ago. He said he'd win the title and retire, He'll retire like a| mouse in a trap. This is what he gets for being the greatest pugilist alive. Five years at hard labor. Jacobs has plans for taking Joe around the world, but they aren't, definite. The big sugar is right here in this country. Joe's next fight will be with Walter Neusel, as soon as the Westphalian Windmill disposes of Carnera. Then he'll take Ford Smith, the cowboy who climbed all over Buddy Baer's ponderous dogs the other evening. Schmeling is on the schedule for June, 1936, with the cash- thirsty Braddock planning to sell back his title in September. Joe, of course, will be the pure chaser. Thoughts All on Base Ball., HIS vast program, teeming with | 1 "toil and profit, interests Mr. Louis \ not a whit. He has a one-track mind —if I'm not exaggerating the number of tracks. Right now his thoughts are with Cochrane, Greenberg, Goslin | and Gehringer. “Listen, Detroit can't lose,” Joe told | me in answer to a question about Baer. “Look at the pitchin’ they got, outside of their hittin’. They'll splash those Cubs all over.” 1 said before that Baer is not | an interesting topic just mow, i but he deserves a postscript. He took his defeat very nicely. | There was no yellow, no quitting touch, about him. You might as well ‘ call a man a quitter for pulling hls] finger out of an electric fan. Any- | body who takes 50 of the sort of punches that Baer took is a solid fellow, to say the least. King Levinsky | | took one and dove for the canvas like | a homing herring.
