Hoyas and Terps Forget Defeats : Rams on Inside Track to Bowl
01 BATTLE HERE
Georgetown Pits Star Line
Against Flashy Backs.
Cardinals Happy Again.
BY ROD THOMAS.
WITH the buoyance of healthy
youth, foot ball men of
Georgetown and Maryland
today shook off the effects
of Saturday’s unhappy adventures and
set about girding for their annual Joust
next Saturday at College Park.
In spite of Georgetown's 13-0 defeat
by Manhattan, poignantly disappoint

Maryland’s 13-7 loss to V. M. I., rue
fully accepted by the charges of Prank
Dobfion, the customers may be too
many to handle when the Hoyas and
Terrapins come to grips in Byrd Sta
dium, which seats approximately 9,200
With newly added bleachers.
It surprised some when Maryland’s
homecomer with V. M. I. nearly filled
the place and interest in the Terps
Hoya party exceeds by far the curiosity
over the relative merits of Maryland
and V. M. L
Guckeyson Has Bad Day.

to College Park Saturday and for
many will be the magnet next week

this all-American prospect which may
have cost Maryland a victory over
v vr r
Guckeyson made more bobbles
against the "Keydets” than were com
mitted by him In all the preceding
games of his foot ball career. They
may hav« cost him the national recog
| nition confidently urged by all the
gridiron critics who had seen him per
form.
The repeated fumbling of this un
doubtedly superlative back, rated by
some. Including this reporter, above
George Washington's Tuffy Leemans,
became ludicrous.
But even with Guckeyson not him
self, Maryland would have beaten V.
M. I. except for its generally ragged
play. So little did It put forth of its
Standard effort that gridiron authori
ties, numbering several well known offi
cials, ventured after the first period that
“Maryland must be saving its stuff
for the Georgetown game.” The Ter
rapins scored so impressively in the
opening quarter that they appeared
capable of running up a sizeable score.
Hoyas Are Relieved.
QBORGETOWN hated to beat thun
der to see a first defeat marked
on its record, but In the Hilltop camp
today was an air of relief. The pres
sure is off. The boys in Blue and Gray
fleel now that they can play foot ball
Instead of “working at it.”
Manhattan won, says Coach Hag
erty, because its team was better last
Saturday than Georgetown. Accord
ing to all accounts the Hoya line held
Its own with or even outplayed the
Jaspers, particularly on defense, but
Georgetown’s backfleld was without
concerted punch. Joe Keegin alone
gained consistently.
The Hoyas are happy over the
rapidly improving condition of Quar
terback Tommy Keating, -who was
withheld from the Manhattan game
because of a knee and an ankle Injury.
Keating will be ready for Maryland,
unless hurt in practice, and the Hoyas'
stock goes up with this news. The
Georgetown line is almost as keen as
they come, but it could use to tre
mendous advantage a back or two like
Guckeyson or Jim Meade or John
Gormley of Man-land. As a blocker
no backfleld man to compare with

Line vs. Back field.
/"YN THE face of things, the George
town-Maryland game, roughly
speaking, will be a scrap of Hoya line
vs. Terrapin backfleld, with the Blue
and Gray counting on lengthy team
marches for touchdowns and the
Old Liners banking on Guckeyson or
one or two others of its wing-footed
backs to gallop from a distance to
the goal. In the latter case the
Injury to Gormley becomes of major
Importance because the glory-sacri

the artillery laying a barrage for

Gormley’s name will be heard more
often when the pickers of District
all-star teams get busy.
Georgetown took a physical beating
from Manhattan, but the condition
of its squad is not nearly as poor
as some newspaper reports portrayed,
these being of such nature that the
faculty athletic adviser of George
town, Father Keogh, was alarmed.
On meeting the squad at Union Sta
tion he was amazed to see every

CHICAGO, November 16. — The
fighting ‘'Irish’’ of Notre
Dame, having harnessed the
Army mule, step into a new
and ominous appearing role next Sat
urday—Wildcat tamers.
Northwestern, unbeaten in seven
straight games and eyeing a legitimate
claim to national mythical honors,
travels to South Bend to battle Coach
Elmer Layden’s rapidly improving
Ramblers, and the tilt, to be watched
by 55,000 fans, shapes up as the stand
out in the day’s grid activities.
Northwestern beat Michigan Satur
day to win its sixth straight Big Ter
game of the campaign, but the ragged
variety of ball displayed by the Wild
cats in their 9-to-0 victory promised
a week of hard work for the Lynn Wal
dorf-coached team. The Cats fumbled
seven times and had trouble all

The strictly conference wind-up

Faint Hope of Getting

WITH a faint glimmer of hope
that Roosevelt will perform
something of a foot ball
miracle by knocking Tech
out of the title race In the final game
of the lnter-high series on Friday,
Central and Western will clash tomor
row at Western Stadium in a fray
which promises to be as bitter as it Is
crucial.
Both beaten on a one-touchdown
margin by Tech, Central and Western
will be battling for a chance to gain
a large measure of revenge. Should
Roosevelt trim Tech, which is highly
improbable, the winner of the Central
Western argument would win the
championship. On the other hand,
Tech needs only to trounce the Rough
Riders to annex the title, with three
victories and a scoreless tie with
Eastern.
Central Slirht Favorite.
/~\BVIOUSLY, therefore, Western and
Central, now tied for second place,
with two triumphs and one l06s, are
anxious to clinch the runner-up berth
and retain a slim chance at the title.
Dissension within the ranks of the
Central squad, which seriously ham
pered the team's play against Tech, now
has been ironed out and the Columbia
Heights eleven will reign a slight
favorite to dispose of the Georgetown
ers, who recently were the upset vic
tims of Woodrow Wilson High. 13-12.
Central's backfield aces, Bill Wooten
and Billy Vermillion, will be matched
In versatility by Western’s Len Wein

Western line will concede weight and
experience to the bulky Central, for

in the success or downfall of Western's
hopes, while Johnny Swank and Hugh

OPP’Stan...
On Beating the Tom-Tom
THEY say that for the first time
in his brief and brilliant foot
ball career Bill Guckeyson'*
hands shook in pre-game ner
vousness on Saturday. There was
nothing unsual about the game itself.
It was Maryland's homecoming day,
of course, but Bill had been in three
such affairs before and he had waited
imperturbably before dashing into bat- j
tl* more momentous than one with
V. M. I.
Those who noticed Guckeyson's first
signs of pre-game nervousness failed
to wonder, then, when the Bethesda
bullet handled the ball like a hot po
j tato and, for the first time this year.
! failed to help his unvoiced claim to
| all-America status.
During the week preceding the V.
M. I. game there was launched a well
j meant deluge of propaganda for the
I naming of Guckeyson on the best
; mythical team in the country. As a
| sophomore and junior the talents of
the versatile Terrapin had been ad
mired, but never In such a fashion as
this season.
There was, in short, a deep
and probably righteous suspicion
that Guckeyson found himself
subconsciously shackled by long,
large and livid headlines.
This kind of a shackle always exists
in the subconscious mind, they say.
Wmiii.i. ■ ■ i ,1.11 I ——a

more attention than Irish. In
quest tor an answer you recall
asking Dutch Bergman about it.
"I think I know exactly how it af
fects a kid," said Bergman. "Take a
fellow like Carroll, for instance. There
isn’t a nicer boy in foot ball togs.
There isn’t an ounce of affectation in
his system. It's Just . . . well, things
in a foot ball game are supposed to go
swell for them, because of a subcon
scious quirk as a result of the papers
predicting that way, and the old drive •
isn’t there.
"There is a tendency to do all the
things they did a year ago a little
fancier, and that doesn't work. Some
times, when the player finally decides
to discard the fancy stuff and go back
to hard driving, he presses,’ and that’s
just as bad.”
Has One Saving Grace.
VI/HEN the Carroll bandwagon began
” to become a vehicle off which to
hop. Georgetown’s Tommy Keating
came in for an overdose of premature
all-America drum-beating. He looked
great against Delaware and Cincinnati
and Bucknell.
Then Georgetown went to play New
York University in Gotham, and Keat
ing was stopped cold. He carried the
bell more than any other Georgetown
.•"'.•i-.W.-Wi-!-*'--1 1 ■: " •/V'' 1 : V
Fellows like Guckeyson put It out of
their minds on the campus and in
practice, but when the bell rings, the
germ begins to work until most of
the boys who have gone through it
would Jump at the chance to carry
instead the school’s press agent on one
shoulder and the student sports editor
on the other when he is running the
ball. _
Didn’t Help Irish Carroll.
'THERE isn’t anything particularly
new about a case like it. Before
the foot ball curtain was raised this
Fall there were predictions in the
public prints that Catholic Univer
sity's Irish CarroU would succeed
Tuffy Leemans as the District darling
of the touchdown trade. Last year, as
a sophomore, Irish virtually was un
stoppable. He sliced off-tackle like
one of your golf drives and had a
lot ifiore roll to him.
The tom-tom tempo was step
ped op, hot, somehow, Carroll
never struck his stride. Burke
. beck when he was in the game because
he honestly believed he could gain
ground and not because he wanted to
steal the show.
But he was playing Into N. Y.
TJ.’a hands. They looked for Keat
ing constantly and. as a result, did
a good job of consistently finding
him . . . and with him usually was
the hall. Georgetown was held to
a 7-7 tie.
One saving grace about the whole j
business is that it doesn’t last long !
Carroll already Is on the comeback and j
so is Keating. And in connection with I
Keating, he has not gotten the best of i
publicity breaks. Among other items i
was a rumor that his Georgetown
teammates asked that he be removed.
Nothing could have been farther from
the truth.
Tommy hasn’t started a game
since the N. T. IJ. affair, but that
wasn’t the reason. For one
thing he wasn’t in the best of
shape for Shenandoah and West
Virginia and Manhattan.
Again, Jack Hagerty is helping the
boy come back and if it will help to
grind the life of that misshapen rumor
Keating was the happiest Georgetowner
of all coming back from West Virginia
a week ago , . . and he only played a
few minutes and after the Hilltoppers
had taken the lead.
A more appropriate Keating rumor
at the present time might be that
when the Georgetown* and the Mary
land* play next Saturday Tommy will
be unveiled anew to start and finish
the job of trying to win the Hoyas’ first
victory in the modem series.

Rejoins Old Mates for One
Game, Kicks Field Goal
to Beat Celts.
A PLAYER who returned to his
old teammates for yesterday *
game only, after dissension
had caused a split in the
ranks earlier in the season, today was
being hailed by the Washington Pros
as the main reason for their 9-7 vic
tory over the Alexandria Celtics and
their third place position in the Dixie
Professional League. *
Willis Benner, whose present posi
tion with the Paterson Pros is due
to a recent mix-up with the local
aggregation, place-kicked a field goal
from the 20-yard line in the second
quarter which turned a 6-7 deficit
into a two-point lead which stood up
for the rest of the game.
Makes Up for Fumble.
tJENNER’S game-winning boot fol
*■* lowed his fumble in the same
quarter on Washington’s 25-yard line,
where Alexandria recovered the ball
and started to a touchdown which
would have made the fugitive a goat
had he not applied his toe efficiently
a few minutes later. For just before
the field goal, Benner had failed to
place-kick the extra point following
his team’s touchdown which matched
a previous score of the Celtics.
The visitors’ score came when Kin
sey Jones passed 25 yards to Ab
Wright, who took the ball on the 5
yard line. Jones plunged over the
goal three plays later and Bill Par
rish converted for the seventh point.
Not to be denied, the Washington
eleven got into the ball game when
Lee Carlin and Dick Nelson led an
advance to their own 40-yard line
from which point Nelson heaved a
25-yard pass to Carlin, who ran 35
yards to a touchdown.
Washington will retain its third
place lease for at least a week, as
Wednesday night’s scheduled game
with the Norfolk Clancys has been
postponed until December 13, when
it will be played at Seat Pleasant.

Washington Seems Assured *
of Western Assignment.
Pitt Still in Race.
BY HERBERT BARKER.
Associated Press Sport* Writer.
NEW YORK. November 16—It
looks like Washington's Hus
kies will be the party of the
first part in Pasadena's an
nual New Year day Rose Bowl foot
ball classic. Just who will receive
the bid to oppose the Far Western
representatives, however, remains en
shrouded in considerable doubt.
Even should they topple Notre Dame
at South Bend this week, and thus
complete an all-victorious campaign,
Northwestern's Wildcats can be reck
oned out of the Rose Bowl picture
because of the Big Ten Conference
rule against post-season games.
With Northwestern eliminated, the
choice today appeared to have nar
rowed down to Fordham and Pitts- ^
burgh in the East, Marquette In the
Middle West and Louisiana State and
Alabama in the South.
Fordham perhaps hold the inside
track at the moment because the
Rams' representative schedule has
given them a chance to whip South
ern Methodist of the Southwest, 6t.
Mary's of the Far West and Purdue
of the Big Ten. as well as hold Pitt
to a scoreless tie.
Ram* Still Mast Hustle.
P'ORDHAM still must get past
j Georgia this week and New York
j University on Thanksgiving day.
Pitt, despite its upset defeat at the
hands of Duquesne. can point to its
.triumphs over Ohio State, Notre Dame
and Nebraska as warranting more
than casual consideration, but the
Panthers still have Carnegie Tech to
hurdle on Thanksgiving day.
The end of Marquette's grueling
schedule taxes the Golden Avalanche
against Duquesne at Pittsburgh this
week. The Milwaukee machine, paced (
by Ray Buivid and.the Guepe brother?,
must get past this one or forget all
about the trip to Pasadena.
Louisiana State and Alabama, bat
tling for the Southeastern title, bot -
seem certain of winding up undefea'
| ed. After a ‘'breather" with South
western of Louisiana this week, L. S.
U. winds up against Tulane on No
vember 28. Alabama finishes with
Vanderbilt cm Thanksgiving day.
The Rose Bowl situation, of course
will not be cleared up until all th
returns are in. Some further progres
in that direction will be made thi
week in the following program:
East—A slender, but choice, slate
combines the intersectional and tradi
tional angles in about equal parts.
Not only will Fordham seek to protect
its undefeated record against an im
proving Georgia outfit and Duquesne
attempt to ruin Marquette's streak,
but Temple will tackle Iowa in an
other big intersectional fray.
Georgia Is Dangerous.
P'ORDHAM will be heavily favored
over Georgia, but the Athens ar
ray upset Tulane, 12-6, last week, and
can be counted upon to produce its
best foot ball in the North. Duquesne
won the Pittsburgh city title by whip
ping Carnegie Tech. 13-0, last week,
but Marquette showed a return to
form in a 33-0 rout of Mississippi.
Temple won its objective game from
Villanova. 6-0, and should top Iowa's
| disorganized forces, beaten, 13-0, by
! Purdue.
The chief traditional game of the
j slate sends Yale against Harvard at
New Haven. The Blue, spared by the
magnificent play of Capt. Larry Kelley,
nosed out Princeton. 26-23, in one of
the most exciting games on record
last week. Harvard, showing steady
improvement in recent weeks, held
Navy to a 20-13 count.
