Grid Squads Face Problems as They Look to Tilts Saturdag; “Just the Same Old Line” for Big Series ILL WIND WAFTS b W.SOME GOOD New Backfield Combination Clicks for Team Hit by Injuries. ESOURCEFUL Jim Pixlee looked philosophically at his George Washington injured list and doped out a scheme that should benefit his team because of the injuries. The Colonial mentor, who has been solving tough gridiron problems for more than 20 years, i probably will pit a more versatile backfield against Elon College Friday night than he had a week ago. ‘When Bruce Mahan and Jay Tur- ner went to the sidelines with in- Jjuries sustained in the Emory and Henry game, it called for consider- able juggling by “Possum Jim” to put another smooth backfield combination together. So he began experimenting. TMAHAN vwas his only experienced right halfback and Turner, on the inaugural performance, appeared to be Pixlee's best fullback bet. The coach immediately took in hand Herb Reeves, left halfback, and made him over as a fullback, because Herb has great leg drive, which is essentional to an effective line-smasher. Then he selected Frank Merka, normally a fullback, but whose chief asset is blocking, and placed Frank at Ma- han’s right halfback post. These two changes gave him a chance to see what Joey Kaufman, the boy who disappointed 1n 1935, could do at left half, which is his natural position. The new combination functioned surprisingly well after two hours of drilling on Monday and again yester- day appeared capable of clicking against a team such as Elon. But Pixlee declared his mind isn't made up yet and that further changes may * be effected before practice is finished tomorrow. At any rate, because of the switch- ing about, the Colonial backs are going to be a better group than a week ago. Reeves can return to his usual left half post, if the occasion demands, and Merka can jump into the fullback berth. With Howard ‘Tihila, Jay Kenslow and Kingston Burnham, three other promising can- didates, acquainted with the duties of right half, this second possible combination also should click. A newly organized band will appear for George Washington Friday night, directed by Leon Brusiloff, one of ‘Washington's most accomplished mu- sicians. Brusiloff, who enjoys a bril- liant record, both as orchestra and band leader, in this section, has hopes of turning out the best-tootin’ outfit G. W, has sent on the field in”many years. There probably will be 50 pieces on hand for its debut. Drafts (Continued From First Page.) named Beverly Ferrell from Thomas- ville, of the Georgia-Florida League. Ferrell's only claim to national fame is that he is a cousin of Wes and Rick Ferrell of the Red Sox. With ‘Thomasville, however, he .compiled quite a record. In 112 games he batted .329, and included among his hits were 14 homers, 11 triples and 19 dou- bles. He stole 31 bases. What the future holds for him as a national strictly is problematical, for the Washington club already has its ghare of outfielders, old and new. He will be taken to Spring training camp, however, and given a once-over, Griffith never heard of him until just prior to the draft meeting at Judge Landis’ hotel, when Branch Rickey of the Cardinals mentioned him as a prospect. Rickey wanted to acquire him, but Griff beat him to the punch. HAM’IJ.N, the former Detroit pitcher, who was wanted by virtually every elub, was awarded to the Dodgers. Pea- cock was given back to the Cincinnati Reds, whose clalm on him was in doubt. Another former major leaguer, Whit- low Wyatt of Detroit, went to Cleve- land, while the Athletics received Chalmer (Bill) Cissel, formerly of the White Sox and Boston. Ferrell was the innocent cause of a squabble between Griffith and Rickey. ‘The Old Fox, immediately after being informed by Rickey that Ferrell was a good prospect and wanted by the Cards, returned to his seat at the meeting and scarcely made himself comfortable before Landis called, “Washington,” and Griffith cried, “I'll take Ferrell from Thomasville.” Rickey leaped from his chair and protested, but the commissioner up- held Grifith. The draft price on Class D players is $2,500. o Series Pick-Ups By tne Associated Press. NEW YORK, September 30.—John (Bull Pen) Schulte of the Yan- kees—the stocky fellow who keeps pitchers warmed up in the bull pen for relief duty—floored an expert by handing him a big cigar. “What's that for?” asked the ex- pert. “For picking the Giants to win» Teplied Schulte. “You haven't been right all year, so your forecast puts us ‘i’ Casey Stengel, Sage of Brooklyn, is in a tough spot. “I've been razzing the Giants all year,” he moaned, “and now, as a tried and true National Leaguer, I gotta say good things about 'em. But I mean it when I say they'll lick those guys.” Gus Mancuso, Giant backstop, is a Texas salesman. Gus has lined up almost a dozen Yankees to attend the Texas Centennial after the series. The concessionaire at the Polo Grounds sent in a rush order for more coffee after learning foot ball weather probably would prevail for the series. The stadium almost bulged with hot dogs. Lefty Gomez, who buys more tickets for his friends than any man in base ball, was handing out big chunks of long green for tickets. “Thirty, 40, 50, sixty—say, who said this was a nickel series?” he wanted to know.

The Giants dropped both games by the margin of a fleld goal, 10-7, greatly missing the talented toe of Ken Strong, who has joined the New York Yankees. ‘The passing attack of the Giants, consisting for the most part of tosses from Danowski to Dale Burnett, is expected to offset anything the local lads can display in the form of aerial maneuvers, however, and its running attack, with Leemans, Danowski, Bur- nett and Sarausky lugging the oval, 27 Colleges Are Represented With Giants for Battle Here| TUFFY LEEMANS, Former George Washington ace, wearing the headgear of the pro New York Giants. is favored to shade the Washington goal assault, if any. Star Centers to Oppose. ANY local fans are expected to focus their optics on what is ex- pected to be a torrid battle at center between Red Rathjen, formerly of George Washington, and Mel Hein, all-league selection last season and generally conceded to be the finest snapper-back in professional gridiron circles. Hein, former captain of Washing- ton State, is playing his sixth season with the Giants. Weighing 225 pounds and standing 6 feet 2 inches, Hein was an all-America selection in col- lege, leading his team to their last Pacific Coast Conference title. Since turning pro he has averaged slightly less than one pass interception a game. Z OLD LINE ELEVEN PRETTY WELL SET Left Halfback Post, Tackle Job Still Debated for V.P. 1. Contest.

Devoting Twice as Much Time to Fundamental as It Did Last Year. Br the Associated Press. LACKSBURG, Va., September 30. If Virginia Tech's eleven doesn't block with precision and power against Maryland at Roanoke Satur- day, it won't be for lack of drilling. “Block, block, block,” is the sharp order of the Tech coaches, who are far from satisfied with the work of several of the veterans in this funda- mental. The coaches are devoting twice as much time to blocking drilis as they did last year. The Gobblers tested out new pass- ing and running plays in scrimmage yesterday and will hurl them at the freshmen in scrimmage today.

UFFALO, N. Y., September 30.—Sixty-six-vear-old Jimmy Collins, the man who piloted the Boston Red Sox to victory in the first “modern” world series, is winding up his base ball career back on the sandlots where he started. But things are different now. Back in '85 Jimmy was playing practically every position on the team with the pride of the Buffalo sandlots. Now he is the boss of the Municipal League, one of the best amateur ag- gregations of sandlot players in Amer- ica. “I Just can't seem to get away from this game” said Jimmy, who is completing his fifteenth year as president of the Muny League. “I'll probably still be around when the Red Sox win a pennant again.” Dineen, Young Turn Trick. T WAS in 1903 when Jimmy Col- lins won that first world series. As manager and third baseman for the Boston Red Sox, Collins saw his team lose three straight to the Na- tional League’s Pittsburgh Pirates. Then he shot Bill Dinneen and Cy Young at them twice each, won four straight and the first world's cham- pionship. Probably Collins’ greatest bid for fame is as the ‘“greatest third base- man of all time.” When the first list of immortals of the game was com- plled for base ball's hall of fame this Wjnter, Jimmy Collins was right at the head of the list. Collins did teach the boys how to get around the hot corner. It was in Louisville in '95. The third base- man was ill and Collins was called in from the outfield, where he spent 20 YEARS AGO IN THE STAR. THE Phillies captured the lead in the National League pen- nant race when they defeated Brooklyn for the second straight time, 7-2. Boston’s Red Sox clung to the lead in the American League, as Detroit was eliminated by fall- ing four games behind. Three games separate the Red Sox from Chicago, with but four games to play. Clark Griffith and Connie Mack attempted to get President Ban Johnson's permission to play three games in one day, after the second game of the current Washington Philadelphia series was postponed. ‘The request was made at the in- sistence of Griffith, who figured his team still has a chanec to fin- ish in the first division. The National Capital girls’ bowl- ing team won another match from the Grand Centrals, when the Misses Ackman, Quaites, Thomas, Freck and Mrs. Greenwood carried their team to victories in two of the three games, Miss Ackman be- ing the only girl to roll over a hundred.

In those days & good bunting team would run a pitcher ragged fielding their shots toward third base, until Jimmy got on the job and went into | & huddle with the pitcher. The first man up laid one down and started to beat it out, as had been the usual procedure. But he didn't get there fast enough. Jimmy started with the ball, came in fast, scooped it up and got a perfect peg to first to beat the batter by 5 feet. Governs Thousand Players. THA'I‘ was the first time a third baseman had ever fielded a bunt off the grass. “It was just heads-up base ball,” Jimmy says. “The kind you gotta play to get up and stay with the big time.” Today, Jimmy figures the super- vised municipal leagues are much bet- ter for the game than the old sand- lot days of his own youth. “You get a bunch of kids playing under strict supervision and some of them are bound to go up,” he says. “And you can’t tell me the game has | lost its appeal to the youngsters. Why, we have so many applications we can't possibly hope to fill them all.” And that from an old-timer who guides the destiny of 96-odd teams and more than 1,000 players playing 50-odd games a week. ALASKA KEYED HIGH FOR WORLD SERIES Play-by-Play Accounts Arranged by Associated Press for Farthest North Fans. By the Associated Press. FAmBANKS. Alaska, September 30. —Base ball’s “farthest north” fans are s0 interested in the world series play-off between the New York Yan- kees and New York Giants that some newspapers have arranged for full cov- erage—play-by-play with sidelights. The Fairbanks News-Miner said: “The fans here are all hopped up over the series.” The Ketchikan Chronicle and Ju- neau Empire also have arranged to get play-by-play reports, which the Asso- ciated Press will send by Alaska Com- munications. — TRIBE SIGNS D. C. MAN Larry Flynn Played With Rough Riders in Late ’20s. ‘Washington had another of its young ball players signed to & maor league contract today as Larry Flynn, who played base ball with Roosevelt High School in the late 20s, became the property of the Cleveland Indians. Flynn played with the Akron Yankees of the Middle Atlantic League during the past season, hitting .375 and earning a reputation as the best base runner in the loop. An injury to his throwing arm prompted him to retire for the year after Akron offered to send him to Bassett of the Bi-State League. Cleveland signed him when he left the Yankees, ordering him to report to New Orleans for Spring training in 1937. He will be the second Wash- ington boy on the Indian squad, Bosie Berger, former University of Maryland athlete, having been Cleveland'’s prop- erty for the past two years. - FOUR HOYA J0BS STILL UNSETTLED Hagerty Hopes to Make His Choices Among Thirteen Candidates Today. ITH 13 end and guard can- didates still staging a hot fight for four starting as- signments, Coach Jack Hagerty was hoping his Georgetown foot ball squad could get outdoors today in order that he might de- termine, if possible, the best quartet of linemen among that baker's dozen. Counting this afternoon, only three more days oi practice are left before G. U. takes the fleld at Griffith Sta- dium Saturday afternoon for its open- ing game against Delaware. Although John Fleming and Al Sny- der are leading the race for the flank positions, half a dozen others have shown enough to warrant serious con- sideration before definitely turning the jobs over to the pace-setters. Joe ‘Williams, & senior; Dave Noonan, Bob Martin and John Cavadine, juniors, and Maurie Nee and Jim Harcke, sophs, are the contenders. Fleming Is Improved. JRLEMING, however, is extremely valuable because of his kicking abilities and his play, both offensively and defensively, has shown a decided improvement over that of 1935. Sny- der is another veteran and is con- squad. At guards the Hilltoppers are well- fortified with five—Johnny Frank, Fred Tehaan, Lew Shuker, Jim Hill and Herb Stadler. With the excep- tion of Hill, all were members of last year's squad. The only commitment Hagerty has made on their status is that he deems Frank the most im- proved player on the squad. Although he started every game but one last year as an end, he has been converted into a guard and impressed with every performance. Sports Program For Local Fans TODAY. Horse Show.
