Reyes Will Help Some.

Schlosser, the ex-leader of the second
regiment team, who put UP a star game
for the Hilltoppers last winter. has been
shifted to center. to fill the place left
vacant by the absence of Rice. Capt.
Colliflower has been changed from a
guard to q forward. while his brother
George is still holding down his old place
at rightback. These two men have rep
resented Georgetown for two years. be-
fore which time they played for a couple
Of seasons under the colors OF the Car
roll Institute. The other forward Is be-
ing played by Goggins. a diminutive lad
from Massachusetts. who subbed during
the first part of last season. finally land
ing a position before the year closed.
The fifth position. that of guard, has fall
en- to one of the best men that has ever
worn the colors of the local Y NJ. e. A.
In Reyes the Blue and Gray has certainly
gotten star, and his presence on the
quint should add much strength to the
guarding department.
Besides these. there are quite few
of the candidates who have shown much
ability In practice. and 1t would not be
surprising II one or two Of them should
jucceed in usurping some of the regu. airs
before the season ends. Kingsley and
proving in every practice. and will in
all probability land the sub jobs. Spence
and McLaurin Of Massachusetts Y. M.
c. A. fame. Dick Downey Of this city,
ex-Capt. Martin of Niagara University
and Gibson. the old Notre Dame star. are
the ether ones whose work has excited
comment. The presence of so many good
men not only makes lack Of substitutes
impossible. but 1t also works to the great
advantage of the regulars, who are now
always certain of having a formidable
reserve quint to play against for practice.
The list of games Is the heaviest ever
attempted. and at the same time 1t bears
the unique distinction Of having more
battles take place on foreign floors than
locally. All of the best gu nts in the
country are down for contests with the
exception of Pennsylvania. 1t is hoped
that the Quakers will be signed before
the week is out. OF the other schools
scheduled little need be said. Column q.
York. Yale. Virginia and the Navy have
all made regulations that speak for
themselves.
Rochester, however, Is little known
hereabouts. but it probably is a strong
aggregation and one At to cope with the
Hilltoppers. Last winter the Roch-
estrians trimmed Cornell on two occa-
sions Inasmuch as the Blue and Gray
succumbed to the Ithacans. this would
indicate that the northerners should rank
will be seea In this city for the first time.
and II is also likely that Swathmore will
come under the same head. The meet
ing OF the West Enders and the West
that the two schools have battled for
athletic honors. and 1t is not predicting
too much to say that this meeting may
lead to others.
The absence of Fordham from the list
and the shifting Of the Virginia dates so
that the first game for the southern
championship comes of in Washington
and the last In Charlottesville are changes
that will bear explanation. Fordham has
never been a drawing card in Washing
"a III L.
to bring that quint here. The shift in
the Virginia dates was made at the sug-
gestion of the Orange and Blue manage
ment, who believe that the playing Of
the last and crucial game In Charlottes-
Vile IL their right. since last season the
order was reversed.
AS soon as possible series will be ar
ranged with the local Y. NJ. c. A. and
Carroll Institute CUNTS for the District
championship. The games with the
biggest events of the Washington season.
and such will probably be the case this
year. These two teams look pretty
evenly matched at present and many be-
even outshine those of the past In fierce
ness Of playing md rivalry.
