EORGE WASHINGTON . will place the lightest team it has produced in years on the QGrifith Stadium grid- fron tomorrow night when the Co- lonials meet the Wasps of Emory and Henry in the foot ball opener of this ty. The visitors, always rugged, therefore, ‘will meet the Colonials on more even terms than a year ago, when G. W., after considerable dif- ficulty, won by a 12-0 score. ‘With only two- players on the squad weighing more than 200 pounds— Dale Prather, 205, and Stan Grbovaz, 215—George Washington will average about 180 pounds a man. If either Prather or Grbovaz, both of whom are tackles, get into the fray, this figure will be pushed up a couple of pounds. Has Edge in Backfield. NLY in the backflield will George ‘Washington enjoy any physical advantage, for its probable ball-toting quartet — Reeves, Jenkins, Turner and Weinberg—will average approxi- mately 178 to the Wasps' 167. Emory and Henry will start Alf Mann, quar- terback, 155; Jeter Barker, 188, and Karl Reedy, 160, halfbacks, and Pete Rickman, 170, fullback. There will be no change in the average if the visitors start their star, Mark Kegley, in place of Reedy. Inasmuch as the untried George ‘Washington eleven has yet to ac- quire polish, tomorrow night's game figures to be a close affair, for Emory and Henry has been training two weeks longer than the locals and slready has a game under its belt. Last week the Wasps battled Ran- dolph-Macon to a scoreless tie. ‘Undoubtedly, Emory and Henry, un- der the direction of wiley Billy Laval, former South Carolina coach, has been pointing for tomorrow night's clash. George Washington is its big- gest opponent in point of prestige end a victory over the Colonials would be worth two or three triumphs over other Wasp foes. Pixlee Stresses Pass Defense. IN AN effort to protect against de- struction from overhead, Head Coach Jim Pixlee was to stress pass defense this afternoon as the Buff concluded its drills. In yesterday's scrimmage with Maryland, G. W. looked woefully weak against passes. Emory and Henry is said to boast a fine passer in Kegley. fn the preliminary contest, starting at 7 o'clock, the Northeast and Police Boys' Club No. 4 teams will open the season of the Junior Colonial League, | which is sponsored by the G. W. ath- letic department. These are pee-wee teams who stage abbreviated but as a rule thrilling battles for the enter- tainment of early comers. G. W. officials todey announced that members of the Junior Colonials’ or- ganization will be admitted free through the Fifth street gate. The only provision in this offer is the ‘wearing of a buff and blue skull cap, which may be purchased at the boys’ department of the Palais Royal for 25 | Gridiron Choices Named by Coaches EAST.

Gridman Finder Of Rare Beetle By the Associated Press. RICH?MOND. Va., September 24. —Chalmers “Hoss” Walton, & 192-pound guard on the University of Richmond foot ball team, jumped into the running for all-America honors today—as s beetle collector. From Austin Clark of the Na- tional Museum at Washington came word that Walton, a student en- tomologist, had collected a beetle ‘which is the second of that species ever found. Previously the insect, cerophytum pulsador, hald., had been repre- sented, Clarke wrote, by “a single male specimen.” The announcement brought a groan from Coach Glenn Thistle- thwaite. “That boy in an open field with the winning touchdown 20 yards ahead would drop the bell and go D overhead,” he complained. TAKES POLICE SHOOT. CAMP RITCHIE, CASCADE, Md, September 24 (#)—James R. Herron, rallroad police officer, of Albany,N.Y., scored 295 out of a possible 300 to capture the open individual contest at the third annual Maryland State police pistol matches. HE star of the black bass is on | the ascendency and these pow- | erful fresh-water fighters have | begun to strike everywhere. even in such a comparatively poor hole as the Piscataway. Its nearness to Washington, the ease with which it is reached and the fact that no license is necessary are the main attractions which draw local anglers to this spot. Maryland has set the bass limit in tidal waters, in which category the Piscataway is in- cluded, at 20 a day, compared to the 10 a day in non-tidal waters. There is no danger of this limit being ex- ceeded. \ Six a day is'a very fair catch of large-mouths here, and there are times when anglers return with none at all. Live bait is seldom effective and the majority of anglers use actificial lures, either of the plug or fly va- riety. H. H. Dodson and Ken Jones, both of the Agriculture Department, are both enthusiastic users of arti- ficial, Dodson being a follower cf the bait-casting school and Jones lezning toward the use of flies. They Lad a friendly argument as to which was the more effective, and took a trip down to Piscataway to defend their Tespective stands. % The issue between the two methods still is undecided, as they both caught four large- mouths of approximately ths same weight, 1!3 to 2!5 pounds. Generally speaking, a fly rod sup- plies more sport and thrills than a bait-casting rod for fish of the same weight, but Dodson elaims that the rod he uses, a 6-foot Heddon No. 600 light, requires as much skill and sup- plies as much sport as do fly rods. WHIL!: on the subject of casting, . your attention is drawn to the open tournament to be held Sunday in the Lincoln Memorial Pool under the sponsorship of the Capital Cast- ing Club. This is the big event of the year for nearby scientific anglers, and is expected to draw competitors from Baltimore, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Richmond and even from more dis- tant points. ‘The meet will start promptly at 9 o’clock’ in the morning, and because of the large field en- tered, probably will last unmtil dark, Distance and accuracy events are scheduled in the dry and wet fly, and in the three-eighths and five-eighths ounce bait-casting clssses. About 50 priges, including an outboard motor, wading boots and any number of rods, | AUTO RADIO| Installationy—Repairs reels and lines, have been donated and are on exhibit in the show win- dow of the Canadian Pacific Rail- way Co., Fourteenth street and New York avenue. Take one look at this big display and you will Jose no time in phoning the club secretary, Hor- ace W. Johnson, 4116 Fassenden street, and entering the tourney. If you want to get in a bit of prac- tice before Sunday, so you will get the feel of your plugs and line, the rings will be set up in the east end of the pool Saturday afternoon for that purpose. [UMMING and trolling have been touted as the methods of catch- ing bluefish, in spite of the fact that plenty are caught still-fishing. When they are caught by this latter meihod it usually is considered an accident, as the angler in the case, for the most part, is fishing the bottom for trout and hardhead. Last Sunday there was a re- versal of form, however, ameng the fishermen, using the long pier at Seaside as a handy place to wet a line. About & dozen men were out there in search of trout and spot when a large school of blues the alewives in and started things interesting close to shore. Before they left about 30 had been caught, several of which weighed four and five pounds. Here's how it was done: Anglers fished the bottom with a small hook and bloodworm for spot, and as sooh as one was caught it was cut up and placed on a drift line and a cable- snelled hook. The blues, as usual, attacked anything in the water and many ended up on the pier. This is a very interesting haul, be- cause at the time boats trolling off- shore between Seaside and Plum Point. were catching practically nothing. When trolling and chumming fail the usual thing is to fold up in disgust and go home, but it may be we haw been overlooking & bet when we passed up the still-fishing angle. A GOOD AR G, WASHUV : TERRBLE RNTY OFMATINENCOR E. Dusek Vengeful Meeting Managoff, With Referee Burns Again on Job. LOCAL matdom’s Terrible Trinity —Dusek, Managoff and Referee Burns—give tonight’s patrons of Tur- ner’s arena a rehash of the mateh which found the official sitting in the aisles awarding the match to the apparent loser several weeks ago, with the first named, Ernie, seeking revenge for what he claimed “robbery.” ‘The last time Dusek and Ivan Managoff clashed, Ernie had made Ivan suffer throughout the bout, only to become irked at Referee Cyclone Burns and toss him out of the ring into the infleld at Griffith Stadium. Burns, peeved himself, thereupon awarded the decision to Managofl. Dusek straightway was offered an- other bout with his “conqueror” and tonight’s bout is the result. It is the feature of a four-bout card which will get under way at 8:30 oclock. In the semi-final, Hans Kampher will meet John Katan in a 45-minute scrap, Cliff Olson will lock grips with Eli Fischer. Henry Piers will take on Floyd Marshall and Scott McDougal will meet Mike Masurki. Fights Last Night By the Associated Press.

CHOLASTIC foot ball gets off to a rousing start tomorrow aftér- noon when Central and Gon- saga, age-old rivals, clash at 3:30 o’clock in the Central Stadium in & game worthy of mid-season. It will be the first contest of the year for each. For Gonzaga, it will mark the be- ginning of a year during which, for | the first time in its history, it will play } every eleven in the inter-high series. | Though not a member of the group, the status of the Purple might well be | udged in relation to the teams of the | Judg 3 £ | clippers as Ray Impellitiere, series by its showings against them. But few men are missing from Cen- tral's squad, which took the inter- high championship last year with a clean record. Gonzaga, likewise, will present practically the same team which was undefeated by local prep schools, and compiled a record of well over .500 in its season’s play. Central, however, is ruled a slight favorite in tomorrow's game. KEATING WORRIES G. U. Ace Quarterback May Not Be Fit | for Opening Game. Possibilities that Tommy Keating, Georgetown's first-string quarterback. would not be in shape for the Hoyas opening game against Delaware "a week from Saturday arose today as the ace signal caller spent his tenth consecutive day on the sidelines as a result of pulled muscles in his left leg. Although Hilltop coaches expected Keating to be back in uniform at the start of this week, his leg has con- tinued to bother him and doctors have prescribed plenty of rest for the crack field general. ‘Two more casualties were added to G. U’s injured list vesterday when Elmer Moulin, another quarterback aspirant, twisted a knee, and Peanuts Sheeran, the little scat back, received ® deep gash over his right eve. Both will be out of drills for the rest of the week. KICKER ENTHUSES C. U. Catholic University should not want for points after touchdowns or field goals, if needed, this season. That is, if an Italian-born sophomore con- tinues his propensities for drop-kick- ing that he showed in a Pennsylvania high school for four years. Frank Cairo, a husky 19-year-old lad, is the kicker to whom C. U.s hopes may be entrusted. The sopho- more, who hasn't yet won s regular berth as tackle, has a record of 58 placements in 61 attempts during his high school career, including a 30- yard fleld goal that gave Steelton High School the Central Pennsylvania championship in 1934, 7 P % Hish-etticiency 24 purifies Condenser ‘smoke.

ERMINATING & lengthy ring vacation, Jimmy Braddock, world heavyweight boxing champion, late this Winter or early next Spring will participate in three or four no-decision 10-round bouts, one of which probably will be staged in Washington, it.has been learned by The Star. ‘With the exception of & few ex- hibitions, the bouts will mark Brad- dock’s return to the ring after a lay- off, necessitated by contract affilia- tions and arthritis, that now has ex- tended more than 15 months. Although Braddock now appears in splendid physical condition, Manager Joe Gould feels “the man who came back” must engage in several scraps in order to reach the peak form for his 15-round title encounter with Max Schmeling next June at New York. Locally the winner of the Marty Gallagher-Buck Everett 15-round battle at Griffith Stadium on October 5 looms as Braddock's logical op- ponent. Marty and Buck, District heavyweight champion, have been ranked seventh and eighth, respec- tively, by the National Boxing Asso- ciation. Goldie Gabs and Grabs. A CHANCE remark by Matchmaker Goldie Ahearn will be responsible in & measure if Braddock shows here. Meeting Gould when both were in Philadelphia for the Joe Louis-Al Ettore brawl, Goldie jokingly asked the energetic little manager for Brad- dock’s services and was a bit dazed when Joe answered that he would gave Ahearn's request every consid- eration when he books the no-decision engagements, Gould, considered one of the wisest | managers in the beak-busting busi- ness, was extremely pleased with the treatment he received here last Sep- tember, when Braddock fought a four-round exhibition at Griffith Stadium with Al McCarthy, a spar- mate. Although Everett holds the some- what dubious distinction of having been knocked out by Joe Louis and beaten by Jack Dempsey when the Manassa Mauler was attempting a comeback in 1932, he nevertheless would hit the peak of his pugilistic career if granted the bout with Brad- dock. Buck was chilled by Louis when the Negro noggin-knocker was an un- known quantity, having fought but three times before, while Dempsey admittedly was through before he at- tempted his comback campaign. Bout Would Be Marty’s Best. MARTY, on the other hand, never has faced a real top-notcher, but has bowled over such second-rate ‘Tony Galento and King Levinsky, and re- cently has been mentioned promi- nently as s possible opponent for Louis this Winter. Both boys probably could meet Gould’s requirements that the op- position be tough—but not too tough. In a no-decision fight Braddock could lose his crown only if his op- ponent scored a knockout, but the opposition might scale the fistic lad- der by handing him a trouncing or even making s good showing with the champion. In such a fight judges do not render & verdict, both partici- pants usually accepting the consensus | of newspaper opinion as an unofficial ! decision. i PSS A NI SEEKS FOE FROM D. C.

At the same time Investigation will meet Procure- ment on the South Ellipse.

At the same time yesterday Investi- gation, still undefeated, was handing P. W. A. its first defeat in a thrilling 2-1 encounter. Walter Morris, former Georgetown University diamond star, played brilliantly at second for the winners in addition to leading his team’s attack with two hits. The Bleuths scored their winning runs in the first and third innings, P. W. A.'s lone marker coming in the third. SPORTS.
