Georgetown Crew Leadership Goes
to Western Oarsman.

AS was stated in these columns yester-
day, the Georgetown University Athletic
Association executive council met last
evening for the purpose of choosing a
leader for the varsity crew, a position
which has been vacant since June 1908,
when Ed. Fitzgerald's term ran out. The
filling of the office makes it certain that
the Blue and Gray will be represented
on the water during the present year, thus
putting down all rumors to the effect that
aquatics had been abolished.
As has been prophesied by The Star,
the honor was given to John D. Murray,
10 of Grand Rapids, Mich. The new
leader will take up the duties of his Of
flee atAOnce and his first efforts will be
toward getting out class crews for the
annual regatta Although candidates
were called out early in the week. hardly
full eight has as yet responded, so that
the new captain will have plenty of
chance to show his ability as a leader
within a few days
Along with the announcement that a
captain had been chosen comes the rumor
that the boathOUse will be moved from
its present position opposite the Three
Sisters to point just above the Aqueduct
bridge. Manager ByInes is endeavOring
to secure the site from the Cnesapeake
and Ohio Canal Company, and he expects
definite word within d day or so. II the
privilege is gained ii will mean great
deal to the college oarsmen, as it will cut

COLLIER CAPTURES
CHIEF GOLF: H0N0RS
New York Publisher Beats
G. P. Sheldon in Tie Play
Off at ApaWamis.

NEW YORK, October 1.-When the last
card had been handed in at the Apawa-
mis- Club late yesterday afternoon one of
the most remarkable golf tournaments in
the annals of the game in this country
had become matter of golf history. 1t
spoke volumes Tor the vigOr and pluck
of the seniors, for only those ffty-ive
years of age or more were eligible, that
large proportion of the hundred-odd
who started bravely Wednesday morning
should have continued to the end. While
the veterans were there for a friendly
reunion. SO to speak, it is also a fact
that the competitive side was by no
means forgotten.
Anyhow, those eight treasured trophies
have passed into other hands-that is,
seven of the eight, for there is still tie
to be settled. The first net prize in
Wednesdays eighteen-hole round went to
Lawrence DilwOrth of Pittsburg, with q
card of S9-S-S1, while Eugene Prayer Of
Englewood. 93-1O-S3, and L. c. Bruce
of Greenwich, 99-16-S3. are tied for sec
ond. They have agreed to play off at
some date convenient to both.
In yesterdays eishteen-hole tilt Thomas
Ward of Hackensack won with card of
S6-l-19, George Barber of EnglewOod
getting second with 93-1s-S1. AS ex-
pected, James D. Foot, one Of the best
of the Apawamis set, who has prObably
won more cups in Importance compOtitio0s
than any man of his years in the metro
politan district, won the coveted gross
score prize for the thirty-six holes Foot
supplemented his So of Wednesday with
an "a yesterday. giving total of 1863 for
the double round. His next nearest OPP
ponent for gross honors was John r.
Duff of Dunwoodie. who got second prize
with ia.
1t required an eighteen-hole play-off to
determine the winners of the first and
second net prizes on the two days. Rob-
ert Collier of Dunwoodie and George p.
Sheldon of Greenwich tied. with totals of
1G1, Sheldon being assisted by a twenty
stroke allowance and Collier by twenty
eight strokes. In the play-off Collier
proved the better slayer and won

JUNIOR PREPS TRIMMED.
Knickerbocker Midgets Win Hard
Fought Battle by One Touchdown.

For the first time this season George
town heights was the scene Of a gridiron
t;lttle yesterday afternoon, when the
born'y to ward off defeat by their better
trained rivals of the knickerbOcker a. c.
All during the twenty-five minutes of
play the two aggregations of midgets
fought against each other like veterans,
and it was because of this that the con-
test held the close attention of over a
hundred of the Georgetown University
students.
The final score was five to nothing in
favor of the club laos, the winning touch
down having been made in the last min
ute of play when beautifully executed
forward pass from Brewer to Martin
netted the victors the points that won
the game Inasmuch as the trick was
of very deceptive nature. the losers can
credit their defeat to being outgeneraled
rather than outplayed, although the
fifty-yard run to the goal by Martin was
hardly so speedy that it could not have
been stopped before the big damage was
done.
Another game is now being arranged
so that the lads will not have any diff
Guilty In finally determining just which is
the better eleven. Because of the close
score of yesterdays contes: the one of
the future will be exceedingly hard fought
and 1t Will no doubt attract much atten-
tion among the older students of the
Blue and Gray school, all of whom are
confident that their midgets will turn the
tables when the next clash takes place.

and weighing them seriously. she in
corporated the following i'm a letter OF
general import:
Yesterday we had three new arrivals
whose names must appeal to you power
fully. First. a Mrs. Rosamund Laing
came here from London. and she lost no
time in telling me. among other things.
that she was aware of our meeting at
Cowes. Her informant. I am sure. was
Miguel Figuero. and you will be even
more astonished to learn that he and
Count Won Rippenbach turned up by the
same train as Mrs. Laing. The latter. by
the way. said that you called on her at
Lady Hilbury's when In London Is that
true? There are some hidden forces III
motion at Lochmerig which 1 do not un-
derstand. Mr.. Baumgartner tackled me
openly at dinner with regard to my
journey from Cowes to Oxfordshire. We
know from Peter that Figuero saw us to-
guese friend evidently recognized me at
once. But Mr.. Baumgartner's pointed
reference to Langton as my destination
was rather puzzling. How does 1t strike
you? l expect my news Will prove rather
in the nature of a thunderbolt. and that
is usually a very striking article. 1 as
sure you l am somewhat shaken myself
Mrs. Laing's personal attributes remlno
one of those galvanic batteries you see
at fairs in the Countrywide more you try
to endure her magnetic influence tho
greater your collapse.
Before sealing the envelope she reread
Warden's latest letter. She even read IL
aloud, and the Straightforward. honest.
loving words assumed a new Significance.
Then she turned to her own effusion ana
viewed 1t critically. To her surprise ene
detected a Earring, somewhat cynical note
in those passages which she regarded as
all-important. To her judgment. events
in the near future would follow well
defined course. Her lover would say
whether or not he had met Mrs. Laing in
London. and give the clearest reasons for
his omission of her name from the subse-
uuent recital of his adventures. Evelyn
would count the hours until that reply
reached her hands. Perhaps Mrs. Laing's
curiosity anent Warden's skill in "wrig-
Cling would then be stated. She might
even give an exhibition Of the wrigglers
art in her own behalf.

would be acting wisely if she gave War
den some hint of recent developments.
Too proud to ask for an explicit denial OF
Rosamund Laing's claim. she saw the
absurdity of letting affairs drift until the
hoped-for meeting at Madeira. At first
she thought of resigning her post as
Reryrs companion and returning to Ok
Yorkshire but she set the notion aside
as unreasonable and unnecessary. Most
certainly Warden should not be con-

HATCHETITES PLAYS
EASTERN COLLEGE

George Washington plays it's first foot
ball game of the season tomorrow after
noon with Eastern College at the Ameri-
can League grounds.
This year the Hatchetites have the best
prospects in their history. The line is just
about as strong as 1t was at the close OF
last year, and with school now begun
there is bound to be a great many more out
in search for berths on the team. Yester-
day afternoon the squad received a big
boost In the person Of Sheridan. the big
guard of last years eleven. He is weigh
condition from his four months of rowing
on the Analostan crew.
Yesterday afternoon the team went
through it's first scrimmage Of the season.
This afternoon there will be some very
stiff signal practice. but no scrimmage, as
Dougherty wants to run no risks with this
first game. The line tomorrow will prob
ably be composed of five of last years
men-Brandt at center. Aston and Sheri-
dan at guard Eichof and Hart, tackles,
and Brookes at end, while Farmer will
probably take care of the other end. Kelly
will probably play the entire game at
quarter, but the backfield is not certain
yet.
Haggy Ellis has been out in a suit but
once, but will probably play at least a
part of the game. Crafts has been out
once, and may get in for short time.
White and Porter will probably both be
given the chance to play most of the
game at hair, and Hooten and Crouch
will take care of the fullback position.
During the second half Dougherty in
tends to give a great many OF the men
chance to show their worth under fire.
The return of Sheridan to the game
comes as a very agreeable surprise. as it
had been his intention not to play foot
ball this year, but to devote all of his
time to law. With him, Capt. Aston.
Eichof. Hart and Brookes of last years
first string line. and Brandt, one of last
years scrub team. the Hatchetites should
have no trouble whatever with any line
they buck up against during the season.
Farmer makes fine end, and Bryant
Morse will soon report for practice. and
should make another grand man for one
of the extremities of the line. Should
White fail to make good at half. he will
be switched to his old position at end,
where he has always played a very pretty
game. The team is well supplied in case
of injuries to any of it's first-string men.
Bullough is one of the best lnemen on
the squad. and should any one get hurt
his position will be very we'll filled by
Bullough.

vARsITiEs CLASH TOMORROW.
Annual Georgetown-Gallaud Game
Will Be. Played on Hilltop.

The first gun in the 1909 gridiron cam
paign of Georgetown and Gallaudet will
be fired tomorrow. when the two local
varsities meet in their yearly contest at
$3.50 on the Blue and Gray field This will
also be the opener of the Washington
season, as it will be the first contest OF
any Importance played In the District this
year. From now on, however, lovers of
the great collegiate sport will have their
fill of fun. as the Hiltoppers. schedule
has two games a week listed for the next
fortnight. after which their big battles
will be on the cards for each Saturday.
Ever since the beginning Of practice on
the heights reports have been given out
that the West Enders have a star aggre-
cation this season. and because of this
much interest is being taken in tomor-
rows contest by those who are anxious
to see the Blue and Gray make a good
showing during the coming two months.
ScrimmageS during the past week be-
tween the Hilltoppers and Props and the
practice battle Wednesday against NJ. A.
G. showed beyond doubt that much i'm
provement has been made over last sea-
son. The present team is not only much
heavier and more experienced. but is also
far speedier Then, too, the men have
all grasped Bill Newmans style of
play, fact which could not be stated
at this time year ago.
Much secrecy has been the order at Gal
laudet 70 rthe past two weeks. and
hence IL is pretty hard TO say Just how
the mutes will line up 1t is generally un-
derstood chat they have a more formi-
dable bunch than last year, but just where
the Improvement has been made is not
known. AS they always give Georgetown
a pretty tough game. it is probable that
tomorrow's battle will be interesting, and
no one seems to expect that it will be one
sided The closer the score the better
able will critics be to judge the COMPARE
of the teams with those of former
years. and hence il is not likely that the
Hilltoppers will try to run up points. As
