Georgetown'S Football Caach
RetireS at the Seasons Close
Nielsen Will Gipe Up Gridiron Sport for Business
Career-Gargan and Daley Mentioned
as His Successor. I
By WILLIAM PEET.

Fred Nielsen, the old University of Ne
hraska star, who is coaching the George
town football team this season, will not
be a candidate for the job next year.
and the Hilltoppers must look for an
other man.
This announcement will come as big
surprise to Georgetown followers and will
cause considerable regret, as Nielsen has
given the West End colIegians two of
the best teams in the history of the
institution.
The writer had along talk with Mel
sen yesterday, and the coach said: This
is my last season in football l have been
in the game long enough, and have
reached the stage when / shall have to
make serious plans for the future.
passed up two very good business oppor-
tunities this fall because of my coaching,
and expect to land a responsible position
this winter. At any rate. ] am through
with football"
Nielsen is in the government service.
and has lived in Washington during the
past six years. His first engagement as
football coach was with the Maryland
Aggies, where he turned out winning
teams. Later he was at George Wash
ington and during the past two years at
Georgetown.
Blessed with frst-class material. Mel
sen assumed charge at the Hilltop one
year ago this fall and his team not only
defeated Virginia but won every game
on its schedule with the exception of
the University of Pittsburg contest. This
season the HilltOpperS have done even
better. They were trimmed by the In
dams, but held West Point scoreless, a
notable achievement.
Two games remain on the Georgetown
schedule-the University Of Maryland
next Saturday and Lehigh on ThanksS
giving Day Georgetown should win both
battles, which will give Nielsen a record
of turning out team which has lost
but two games in as many years.
Nielsen is not only a close student Of
the game, but keeps himself up to date
and probably knows the rules better
than anybody in Washington. His spe-
Cialty is in sizing UP an opponent and
building a defense so perfect that rival
leans find themselves CheCkmated at
every turn.
Several rumors are current as to
NieIsen's successor. Frank Gargan. the
assistant coach this year, is spoken of
as the man for the job. while Daley,
the Dartmouth end. is another who has
been prominently mentioned.
In an interview yesterday Nielsen
said that he had talked with none of
the Georgetown officials about next
year. He had received no intimation
that his services would be wanted at
the expiration of his contract but add
cd that he had decided not 10 serve in
ANY case. as he was through with foot
ball for good
Nielsen has worked hard for George
own and deserves all the good things
hat can be said of him.

SPIRITED WORK BY
MIDDIES' ELEVEN
Navy Prepares for Army
Clash Next Saturday.

Annapolis, Nd, Nov. 1.-THE Naval
Academy football squad started its last
week of preparation for the West Point
game with much spirit yesterday. There
is a general feeling that the team is
strong enough to win this year and
thereby win the rubber of the series,
each service team having seven victories
to its credit. The work yesterday con-
sisted of a long signal drill, some kick
ing and a short scrimmage. There is
much satisfaction over the physical con-
dition of the squad, Trainer McMasters
having done his work so well that all
the members are available with the pos
sibIe exception of Leonard. a fast sub
stitute back. 1t was thought that Leon
ards wrenched knee would surely keep
him out of the playing. but ii is now
thought that he will be back in the game
by Saturday.
Herman Olcutt, the old Yale lineman
who had been coaching New York Uni
versity this season. Joined the stan OF
navy coaches yesterday and will stay
with the team during the week.

MORRIS CAUSES
PROTESTED GAME
Local Boy with the Staunton
Military Academy Team.

Special to The Washington Herald.
Staunton, Va, Nov. 2l-The coaches of
the Augusta Military Academy football
team, which was defeated by StauntOn
Military Academy last Saturday, 9 to 6,
was. to-day awarded the game, as the
Staunton eleven used a man that was
not eligible to play. namely, William
Morris, the great scholastic crack of the
Technical High School team of Washing
ton, d. c.
Morris fame as a football player had
travelled TO this place, and Coach Crafts,
of the local academy team, went to
Washington and got Morris to return
and play against Augusta. This was the
biggest game of the year with these
schools, and every effort had been made
to have their best team on the field
Staunton won the game, Q to s, largely
due to the work OF Morris, who not only
made some great end runs. but also was
the star OF the team on the defense
Morris made the winning touchdown in
the final period. Augusta had the long
end OF the score up to this point
The coaches of the Augusta team
started an investigation of Morris and
to-day the game was protested to the
referee, who promptly. upon proof that
Morris was a ringer. awarded the game
to the Augusta eleven by the score of 6
to 3.
Augusta students are very sore over the
matter. and it may lead to a break in
the athletic connections of the two
schools. There has always been very
bitter rivalry between the schools, and
the games have always been hotly con-
tested, and the act Of the Staunton coach
is looked upon very unfavorably by the
Augusta faculty.

PLAY CAPITAL TEAM.
Johns Hopkins Baseball Nine Has
Good Schedule.

Baltimore, Md, Nov. 21.-ManageI
Lynn Meekins, of the Johns Hopkins
baseball team. announced yesterday that
complete. Eleven games have been ar
ranged for and of these eight will be
played at HOmewood. Some of these
conflict with la cross games, but or
these days there will be a dual bill fol
the spectators.
The schedule is the most ambitious OF
any ever attempted by a Baltimore aS'
gregation, and according to the present
arrangements, all of the big Northern
colleges will send teams to Baltimore to
play the Black and Blue nine. The COM
plete schedule follows:
March 3o-Gallaudet at Washington.
April 4-PrincetUn, at Homewood
April 6-PennSylJanis, at HomewoOd.
April 9-Yale, at HomewOOd
April l3-SwarthmOre. at Houewood.

April 34-NaTy. at Annapolis
April E-western Maryland, at Homswood.
May 4-Maryland Agricultural College, at Home
wood. ~
May ll-Delaware. at Newark. Del.
May ls-St. Johns, at HOmewood-
Last season only Pennsylvania and
Harvard played at Homewood while on
their Southern trips. Hopkins was
beaten In each game, but not until a
stiff struggle had developed into extra
innings, and this showing led to the ar
rangement with Yale, Princeton, Swarth-
more, and the Navy.
Prospects for a good team are exceed
ingly bright Practice in the cage will
begin right after the Christmas holidays.
The coach for the team has not yet been
selected, but it is expected that Eddie
Hooper, last years successful general,
will receive the appointment.

The Author of "Pinafore.'

In the midst of the hurry and hustle
of a busy world, let us stop for a
moment to pay our tribute to a kindly
and engaging soul.
In the death of Sir William S. Gil
bert humanity has lost a friend If he
could have lived as many hours as he
has given pure and innocent enjoyment
to his fellow-men and fellow-women, his
life would have stretched into the GEN.
turies. From the days of the 'Bab
Ballads with their exquisite humor,
until his pen dropped from his lifeless
hand, he dispensed a most delightful
quality of satire and genuine wit. The
lines of "Pinafore" have become prov
cribs; the humor of The Pirates of
Penzance" is perennial, and Patience
and THE AIikado" continue the quin-
tessence of good-natured fun.
Above all things, Sir William demon
strated that in order to be successful
it was not necessary to be vulgar. His
work was clean and wholesome. and i,
was so human and so clever and enjoy
able that its life will not be restricted
to this generation.
