MRS. CUNEO MAKES
BIG HIT IN SOUTH
Woman Driver in Long
Auto Tour Is Center of
Attraction.

Mrs. Joan Ounce, who has often
demonstrated her skill at the steering
wheel, is among the participants in the
New York to Atlanta good roads tour.
and is using her favorite Rainier car
for the tour. Lewis Disbrow, the daring
driver of Rainier racing cars, is accom-
panying Mrs. Cuneo IN the capacity OF
mechanician.
Were the suffragettes to secure Mrs.
Cuneo TO represent their cause, theirs
would be a winning cause. Throughout
the territory covered by the tour women
have cheered her constantly. A woman
at the wheel is a strange sight TO the
South. Women break into contented
smiles when they spy the lady in tho
Rainier car, and invariably single her
out as a champion Of the feminine
cause, and another demonstration that
women can do anything mere man can.

WESTERN ON A PAR
WITH CENTRAL TEAM
Decisive Win Over Eastern Greatly Boosts George
town Schools StOck-Cane Lacked Snap.
Eastern Players Listless

Students Of high school football are
today trying TO figure out what West
ern win do against Central, following
the formers easy win over Eastern at
National Park yesterday by So to O.
At best the task is a difficult one.
Western simply toyed with the Capitol
Hin outfit, and had the game cinched
before the close of the first half. at no
time was Eastern dangerous. With an
attack which showed neither the variety
nor snap of that used against business
last week, Western scored almost as it
pleased. with the possible exception Of
one brief period during the second half
when Eastern took a little brace,
secured the bail. and for a time made
bold attempts at nearing its opponents
goal line.
Lose Last Chance.
II was indeed a crushing knockout TO
Eastern supporters who had reckOned
because Of the almost equal weights Of
the teams that Eastern would at least
record one victory for the season. These
fond hopes went aglimmering after the
first few minutes of play After rather
suspicious start, which brought the
losers to the middle OF the field, Quar-
terback Parker attempted an end run,
but the Western forwards broke
through, and he was showed back for a
loss OF fifteen yards. An onside kick
went 10 Western, and then began the
procession.
Using delayed pass, sending the in
reference through one tackle and the
runner and the quarter through the
other, the winners had little trouble
gaining the needed distance. Westerns
pilot made use of this delayed pass
throughout the game. and with one or
two exceptions il never failed. Eastern
ends and halves invariably followed the
first Interference and allowed the run
ner and quarterback TO go through the
opposite side unmolested. 1t was Full
back Weaver, playing away behind the
line who was called upon in nearly
every instance to stop this formation.

Western hardly came up TO the stan
oar0 II set IN the Business game, al
though it outclassed the Easternites at
every turn. It's attack vas not nearly
so well regulated. OftimCs the interior
ence seemed oveTanNiOus and started
TOO soon, leaving the runner entirely
unprotected. Several times this was
noticeable in the case OF Right Tackle

Interference would strike through be-
fore the play had gotten properly under
way, and the Eastern end. closing in,
seldom missed the tackle when he
reached the scrimmage line.
one feature of Westerns style which
stood out more prominently than in the
previous game was its fight. From first

no let-up- The runner had to be smotn-

or twice the Eastern backs sought to

made under their very noses.
Eastern Lacks Snap
1t is just this kind Of playing that
makes a football team Western does
not outwardly appear better than East
ern, Both teams are about the same
weight and strength. It Is the fighting
spirit that has made the Georgetown
schoolboys a two-to-one shot over their
Capitol Hill rivals. There were times
during the game when the Eastern
backs made no attempt at smashing
even though it was easy to perceive
there was no other way left open. They
simply stopped and allowed themselves
to be thrown. This playing viii never
win a ball game and the sooner these
careful ones are weeded out or given to
understand what is expected of them
the better it will be for the squad.
The start of the season found Central
a favorite over Eastern and Western.
Misfortune has wrecked many OF Cen
trails chances Western today looks at
least an equal Eastern seems hope
