PROBABLE LINEUP
Of GEORGETOWN TEAM
Players Used on the First
String Are Surest
of Places.

After three days Of scrmmage work.
in which about the same general lineup
has been used for the first team, 1t is
possible for the first time this season for
an outsider to gain some kind Of line
on the manner the Georgetown varsity
will take the field for the opening games
of the year OF course, as yet. Coach
Nielsen has made no official announce
ment of the way he intends to put his
charges In the field, but despite his reti-
cence in this regard it is pretty certain
during the past week are the surest Of
places.
AS far as possible he has seemed to keep
the veterans in the lineup. using new
men to fill those places only for which
no veterans are trying. Cunniff and
Feenan are again alternating at center
with the latter sometimes playing q tackle
Daley and Fitzgerald are back in their
old places at left and right guards. re-
spectively, and Wymard is holding down
the left tackle. Bryant seems to be Stat
ed for the other tackle, although Feenan
and Stohlman have both been playing 1t
OF late in the absence Of Bryant. who Is
laid up with bad ankle. Kerwin. the
man for both Daley and Fitzgerald.
Carter, the veteran end. is back at his
old job on one line extreme with Hegarty
holding forth on the other end. The ar
rival OF Barriscello yesterday may make
a difference in the future of one of these
two men, as the veteran is sure to come
in for claim on one of the two end
positions. Kraft has also been used
some at right end and has shown up very
well when it is taken into consideration
that the position Is one he never has
played before.
In the backfleld Sitterding and Costello
have been fighting 1t out for quarter. with
terms about even at present. Costello
has been quite sick for the past couple
of days and has not been able to practice.
This is. also true of Kelley, who has been
kept from working out by q bad foot.
McNulty. who has been plotting the Sec
ond team. Is also in a position to make a
strong bid for the quarterback position
before the season gets very far under
way.
Fury and Dunn seem to have pretty
permanent berths at two halves. with
Vlymen. veteran. and Lamberton, a
has been used at both half and full.
while Martin, the ex-Eastern High leader.
has also created a very favorable i'm
preston at one of the halves Smyth,
who played full part of the time last
year, has been shifted to the line and is
being tried out at tackle.
The scrimmage yesterday was very
snappy, lasting for over ten minutes.
during which time the varsity scored
three touchdowns on the scrubs For the
ceedingly well, while Lamberton made
some good plunges into the line. Oben-
chain and McNulty worked we'll on the
second team. Scrimmage will most likely
be in order again this afternoon, as Coach
Nelson is very anxious to keep the men
in high fettle for their opening contest
Up to late hour this morning no
game had been scheduled for Saturday
Manager Jolfat, though, is still hopeful Of
getting a match and is keeping the wires
busy trying to get in touch with another
team that has that date open. Unless
something unforeseen turns up this after
noon 1t does not seem as though he
will have any chance of getting a team
in line. SO that it is very likely that the
Hilltoppers will not get their first taste
of the real stuff until they play Washing
ton College next Wednesday.
The arrival of Barriscello yesterday
brought all of last seasons players who
are eligible back into camp except
one this being Carrigan, who is now ex-
pected at any time With Barriscello
and Carrigan both on the job and a few
more men coming in from the medical
and law schools next week the number
of candidates out will probably reach it's
limit, as it is not likely that any others
will report after the practice gets further
under way.
