A—12 == @he Toening Sfaf Sporls WASHINGTON, D. C., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1936. G. W. Captam Stars From Bench' : Local Elevens Face No Set-Ups © KAVALIER'S TALK SPURS COLONIALS Reinhart’s Brother’s Death, Pixlee Strategy Help Beat Arkansas. BY ROD THOMAS. EORGE WASHINGTON'S gridiron stalwarts, rejoicing over perhaps the most signal triumph in the foot ball his- tory of the Buff and Blue, today were pondering just how much the 13-6 vic- tory over the famed Razorbacks of Arkansas last night at Griffith Sta- dium was due to a youth who had no mctive part in the game. Frank Kavalier, Colonial captain, on the plank since Fall practice with an injury, huddled the Colonials a minute before the battle—after an hour of framing the words—and said: “This one is for Bill Reinhart.” Then the devout young Belgian uttered a brief prayer. Reinhart, G. W. backfield coach, re- turned from the funeral of a brother killed in an airplane smash, watched with hashed thoughts a stirring con- test and shared with Top Kick Jim Pixlee and Line Instructor Botchey Koch the satisfaction of a job well done. It was a thoroughly coached team that whipped Arkansas. Colonials Display Pep. . 'ALSO it was one with uncommon spirit. The Colonials played with a zip, against odds, that in itself ex- cited a gathering of more than 17,000. ‘The scoring: In the opening period Quarterback Rawlings of Arkansas ran back a punt 20 yards to G. W.’s 30, whereupon Halfback Sloan passed to End Hamilton who in turn tossed the ball to Guard Gilmore who crossed the goal. But the attempted lateral to Gilmore, running ahead of Hamilton, was illegal and the play was called back. On the next thrust Sloan heaved to Rawlings for a 2! and the five remaining yards to a| touchdown were achieved on a 3-yard line smash by Sloan and a pass by | hard-working Sloan, passer, kicker and | runner, to End Benton. Throughout the game Sloan carried on in place or Jack Robbins, rated the best pigskin | heaver on the Arkansas team, who was benched with an injury. B. A. Ownen, a guard, missed for the first time this season a boot for extra point. A 20-yard runback of a punt by Herb Reeves gave George Washington an opportunity to get even, in the same quarter, with Reeves planting the ball on the Arkansas 25-yard line. Runs Joey Kaufman and Jay Turner made first down on the Razorbacks’ 13 and after Kaufman picked up another yard on a line play Joey passed to Reeves for a touchdown. Bob Canmng‘ kicked wide to muff the extra point. “ All the scoring occurred in the first | half. George Washington won the | game in the second period with a| touchdown for which Turner was largely responsible. He intercepted a | pass by Sloan and galloped 22 yards | tto Arkansas’ 13. Little Vic Sampson, the Colonial speed specialist, got nine on the next play; Turner hit for a yard and first down, Sampson was stopped at the line and on second down the bull-like Turner charged across the goal. This time Canning’s extra- point kick was perfect, and there the issue was settled, as it turned out with the score, 13-6. Pixlee Guesses Right. PBUT only a carefully laid plan, very likely, prevented a tie score in| the end. With a few minutes to 8o, | Tommy Thomsen, Arkansas coach, played his last ace in the form of | Halfback Allen Keen. Keen was pro- | nounced by Jean Sexton, G. W. scout and freshman coach, one of the hot- test running backs he ever saw, but Arkansas doesn't go in for the run- ning game. All through a rainy eve- ning the Razorbacks used the for- ward pass as a basic play, in spite of a ball that was like a watermelon seed. Nine-tenths of the tosses were made by Sloan and in nearly 40 throws, about the Razorbacks’ average, he chucked only one that sailed noticeably from the mark. ‘With few minutes to go, Keen en- tered the contest and reeled off a 48- yard run that put the oval on George Washington's 1-yard line. Some of the Colonial adherents were crest-| fallen, with a touchdown and defeat imminent. Then the pre-game planning of Possum Jim Pixlee prevailed. Fpur men, working alternately, were to make life tough for an evening for Arkansas’ 215-pound and capable cen- ter, Kenneth Lunday, Pixlee judging that the Razorbacks’ famous aerial attack might be hampered by erratic chucks from the snapperback, Big Boy Takes Beating. FTER nearly 60 minutes of pound- ing from Weinberg, Stapleton, Haringer and Cottingham, Lunday was not quite his efficient self when Arkansas got its golden chance. With & yard to go for victory or a tie, his timing slipped a little and a fumble and a near-fumble by Keen of a consequence lost 9 precious yards for the Razorbacks. On a fourth down Sloan chucked to Flankman Hamilton, standing on the goal line, but the leather skidded from his fingers. As in G. W.s game with Mississippi, §t was a difficult evening to play foot ball, and considering the Razorbacks’ propensity for passing the break in the weather may have been against them. But we still are of the thought that G. W. presents a far better foot ball team than some of the observers grant, and incidentally, the William- son national rating system, which called the turn on G. W, and Missis- sippi last week, was close last night. It favored Arkansas slightly, but granted George Washington a chance to tie, and the latter result was held remote by many. Line-Ups and Summary.

Srecial Dispatch to The Star. nmasz West Southeast ach U Texas NNAPOLIS, October 17.—The final | roll call after practice yesterday brought out the fact that Frank Case, signal-calling back of the Navy team, would not start against Yale at Balti- more today, but might get in at a later stage, and that Frank Lynch, big left | tackle, was not likely to play at all. « Frank Fike, regular end last year, may venture upon his first scrimmage of the present season at some period of the game, and Bill Bringle, another strong end, will be on the bench, but is not likely to play. The regiment of midshipmen, nearly 2,300 strong, was scheduled to march into Baltimore Stadium at 1:15, and the game was set to start at 2 p.m. The advance sale of tickets reached 25,000, and the attendance was not expected to reach 40.000. There was a | preponderance in the demand for seats | on the Yale side, chiefily, it is believed, because that side commands a view of the Midshipmen’s card pictures, 10 in number, which will be a feature. e EVERETT STOPPED Will Confine Future Ring Dates to Light-heavy Division. &pecial Dispatch to The Star. ST. LOUIS, Mo., October 17.—De- spite the fact that be is heavyweight champion of the District of Columbia, | Buck Everett has decided to confine his future activities to the light-heavy- weight division after being knocked out in 2 minutes and 40 seconds of the first round here last night by Otis Thomas, New York Negro heavy- weight. Everett was outweighed 30 pounds and his anxiety to trade punches with his heavier opponent led to his early knockout. 20 YEARS AGO IN THE STAR 'EORGETOWN is working hard to prepare a defense to stop the powerful Dartmouth team which it meets this week end at Haverhill, Mass. In other games involving' local teams, Western Maryland - comes here to meet George Washington, while V. M. I invades College Park for a game with Maryland. Alhtough the high school foot ball series will be played at Ameri- can League Park, no other contests will be allowed there, according to Clark Griffith. Had it not been for the fact that the high school stadium at Central is not yet com- pleted, even the scholastic games would not have been permitted. Eddie Plank, veteran southpaw of the St. Louis Browns, has in- formed Manager Fielder Jones he will quit base ball unless he is traded to an Eastern team.

ALE-NAVY, Baltimore — Yale looks to have too much speed for Navy. This lack of back- fleld agility hurt Navy a year ago, and there seems to be no change this Fall. The best coach in the world can't make legs much faster than they | are. Yale has a good line and a much more versatile backfield. A Navy team always is hard to beat back, but the blue. Minnesota-Mic| Minneapolis— The wild three-year Gopher gallop is on its way to No. 20 in a row. Mich- igan is better than a year ago, but not sufficiently bolstered or improved to toss any stymie in Minnesota's path. Minnesota has the line and the backfield ready—and, if any crisis arrives from some unex- pected gquarter, Minnesota seems to have the answer. The Gopher will be hard to surround and capture from now on. Princeton - Pennsylvania, Philadel- phia—Pennsylvania’s , veteran |team will make the most desperate | effort of its three-year span to over- ‘pouer the Tigers, but the odds still are against the Red and Blue. Prince- | ton has another fine line, with Toll, Montgomery, Cullinan and others— | good ends—and a high-class back- | fleld. The Tiger is just about as good—or will be—as he was a year | ago. Penn will be no cream pufl— but Princeton should slip by. Georgia Tech Picked. GEORGIA TECH-DUKE, Durham— The big game of the South—one of the season’s features. Duke showed its defensive power against Colgate from the first kick-off. Last Sat- urday Tech put a good Kentucky team to the sword. The backfield duel be- tween Ace Parker of Duke and Kone- mann of Tech should be something to see. Both teams are strong de- fensively, but Georgia Tech’s Ramblin’ Wrecks have sent more scoring power to the field. Georgia Tech, in a close one. Northwestern-Ohio State, Evanston —A decisive duel for the Big Ten title between two of the Big Ten's leading squads. This is & hard nut for any soothsayer to crack. Ohio State's oTense was all rumpled up last Sat- urday by a crack Panther line, but it should have a better chance to func- tion this time. This game is close to a toss-up, but Northwestern, playing at home, has a slight edge—thinner thay a Damascus blade. Colgate-Tulane, New York—The picking doesn’t seem to soften up. Tulane was good enough to hold a strong Auburn team to a draw. Col- gate has improved since her Duke opening. Each team has a good climax runner and both have good lines. Col- gate should just about get by in & nip and tuck affair. Nod for the Army. ARMY ~HARVARD, Cambridge — Dick Harlow is bringing Harvard | [ along, but hardly far enough to stod an Army charge. The Cadet squad this season is better fortified than usual in reserve help. And the Cadet squad has Monk Meyer, who is harder to hold than three eels. Army gets the nomination. Indiana-Nabrasks, Lincoln—Bo Mc- Millin has the best team Indiana has known in many years. He has a vet- eran team, ably coached. But it will take & masterpiece to roll over this Nebraska team playing at Lincoln, un= less Minnesota’s last-minute victory removed some of the early morale.

PRESS BOX on Foot Ball, Given by Intrepid Forecaster With No Alibis. BY JOHN LARDNER. EW YORK, October 17.—The time is past when a foot ball forecaster could deceive and betray his public by mincing splitting hairs, and clouding issues. Today the public demands cold, definite information, there is hardly a soul so dead in this great Nation of ours that he does not put a deuce or a fin on some foot ball game each week, and if he fails to win his bet, then what good is the expert whom he elected to office for the purpose of tipping him off? I am sorry to say that there still are a few foot ball experts who are political hacks, seek- ing election from selfish mo- tives, Once in office, they violate their trust and stab the voters somewhere N words, near the middle of the back by | handing out veiled predictions and weasel-worded forecasts, calculated to obscure the ‘result of the foot ball game and to leave the forecaster ai | out, an alibi, no matter who wins. Is the public going to tolerate these shysters? Shall they be al- Jowed to go on dipping their fingers into the civic cash box and replacing | cold dope with obscurantist buffoon- ery? Answer Is a Ringing No. THE answer is no, one thousand | (1,000) times mo. Personally, I would run for town scavenger on the straight free silver ticket sooner | than repudiate my oath as a foot ball expert—and none better—in the | | service of this great democracy. I regard it as a trust, a gacred trust If re-elected, I undertake to call them calmly and fearlessly as I see them, to uphold the Constitution to the point of monotony, if necessary, and to keep the streets clear of crows, stoats, fer- rets, hit-and-run drivers, peddlers, stray owls and agitators in the pay of red Russia. I have no ax to grind. My record | speaks for itself. 1 challenge my opponent to find a flaw in my integrity, and I will match my private life with any man’s for a side bet of $25, cash on the line. That should take care of that. Now, the Saturday program of foot ball which looms before us is a rich field for one who calls 'em cleanly and squarely. Ten thousand toes will boom against 10,000 pigskins in the crisp October air, and here is how I figure the games: Yale-Navy—Nip and tuck. Duke-Georgia Tech—Touch and go. Mississippi-L. S. U.—A thriller. Southern Methodist-Vanderbilt—A ip. p’rexns Christian-Texas Aggies—Six of one and half a dozen of the other. Harvard-Army—Will definitely be played at Harvard. Colgate-Tulane—Figures to be in- tersectional. Auburn-Detroit—A breath-taker. Rice-Georgia—A sweetheart. Iowa-Illinois—More or less of a Big Ten game. Princeton-Penn—At Penn. Syracuse-Cornell—Should be inter- esting. Georgetown-Bucknell — What do you think? Pittsburgh—A good team U. S. C.-Washington Stafe—Will start on time, or I miss my guess. Ohio State-Northwestern—A clas- sic. Manhattan-Holy Cross—Could well be close. Notre Dame-Wisconsin — Strictly Middle Western. Dartmouth-Brown—May the better team win. Kansas State-Marquette—An out- door game. Texas-Baylor—They cannot lose. Maryland-Virginia—Same here. Columbia-V. M. I—Does not figure to be a tie. Arizona-Centenary—In the after- noon. Randolph-Macon—Open date. Roosevelt-Landon-—May have bear- ing on national championship. Day's best bet—Randolph-Macon. Hunches About Ohio State. PROBA.BLY the finest game on the card is the one between Ohio State and Northwestern, in regard to which I have a feeling that if Ohio Joses it will be her second straight defeat. Also, it is practically certain that Northwestern cannot well re- main in the ranks of the undefeated if beaten. I may be guessing here, put my guess is based on experience and a thorough study of the two teams and their styles of play. CaH it & hunch if you will, but the victory will to the club piling up the because | straight by the | greater number of points by simple foot ball, or possikly use of passes Princeton and Pennsylvania are coming together in what looks in advance another re- newal of an ancient rivalry. Of course, the signs may i In the Harvard-Army and Yale- Navy games you have two ivy colleges going up against two service schools, and in the South you have the Duke- Georgia Tech game and a great deal of cotion and tobacco. Still farther to the South is the Gulf of Mexico, un- defeated for three years running. It will be a grand carnival of sport, all in all, for the foot ball fan, and if he follows my selections with care and judgment, he does not figure to lose a nickel. «Copyright. 1936. by the North American Newspaper Llliance.

Opportunity Knocks for Keegin, GEORGETO\\N winner over Dela- ware and Cincinnati, likewise was to face its toughest test in Buck- nell. Coach Jack Hagerty was not forced to bank on aerials or laterals to whip Delaware and against Cincin- nati last week the ball was too wet to pass safely. Today, with Bucknell em- ploying a line that average 192 pounds and rated as expert as it is hefty, Hagerty was expected to cut loose with all the deception at the command of the Hoyas. Opportunity was banging at the door | of one Hoya in particular as the teams prepared to square off for the kick-off. Georgetown lost one of its backfield stars last week when Bob Ferrara broke his arm and nominated to fill his shoes is Joe Keegin, a former East- ern High player. Like Catholic Univer town is given the edge today. but so slight as to be negligible. This was to be another game the breaks were expected to decide in the opinion of most observers. George- Terps to Have Guckeyson. T CHARLOTTESVILLE today it was predicted that Marylanl | would be facing one of the most prom- i ising Virginia teams in years—a young team that learned much against Navy | last week and benefitted—a team cap- able of upsetting the Terrapins. Maryland has taken these storm warnings with more than a grain of salt but, notwithstanding the defeat sustained at the hands of the North Carolina’s Tarheels, the Terps are quietly confident of bouncing back. Once again they have Bill Guckeyson | available for service and in this hard. running, fleet halfback they have a ball carrier who is capable of rejuve- mnating an eleven. Guckeyson was not expected to start. Before the season opened he pulled a muscle in his hip and it was feared, for a time, that his foot ball was ended | for the season. Early this week he re- | covered to such an extent that he re- Jjoined the squad for scrimmages and wound up the week in shape to play. Coach Frank Dobson plans to save him as much as possible, of course, but Maryland supporters today had the pleasant satisfaction of knowing tha Guckeyson was ready if needed. Teachers, Eagles to Face Trouble. MERICAN UNIVERSITY was up against it. St.- John's upset | Drexel and Randolph-Macon and had full strength available for today. The | Eagles, nevertheless, were not to be | counted out of it completely. They were given a chance. Wilson Teachers, struggling to gain a foothold in foot ball, alsv were un- derdogs, but might beat Bridgewater. YOU CAN'T CHEW OFF THE MOUTHPIECE! STEMBITER YELLO- BOI.E doesn’t hit = your tongue Y
