stronger than is expected, and spring a
surprise.
There is a newcomer at Georgetown
who is likely to give somebody a rub
for one of the backteld jobs. Moriarty.
who used to cavort in the backtield at
Holy Cross, looked pretty good in the
position yesterday. and gives promise of
doing even better things when he gets
going right.
Campazzi looked to he one of the fast
est men back of the line in the practice
yesterday on the hilltop. The former
Fordham Prep School man got away two
or three times simply by running back
and around the ends, and Il man has to
be pretty fast to do that.
Kemp has been doing some great work
at end on the Maryland Agricultural Col
lege team. The big fellow is fast. and is
perfectly at home in the position. Last
year he was one of the best players hold
ing down thanking position in any of
the Mary land colleges, and that it was his
first year in that position speaks well for
him this season with the added expert
ence.
Harvard will not open its season until
Saturday, when il will go against Bates.
The eyes of the foot ball world will be
| focused on the first Crimson game
the greatest amount of interest will cen
ter in whether the Cambridge eleven
will have as good a team this season as
last. When Bates appeared on Soldiers
Field last fall il went down to - to .
defeat. and to produce the impression
that 1t is good as last year the Har
ward eleven must at least equal that
score. If it fails to run UP twenty-five
points Harvard will not he adjudged as
having the same chance against Yale this
season as last when with a much better
team it managed only to get tie score.
OF course this holds good only if Yale
trims Wesleyan as decisively today IL
did in the first contest on the schedule
in 1910, which was also 30 to affair.
Davidson's College should have one of
the best teams in the south. Practically
all the veterans Of the eleven which
humbled North Carolina last fail will be
back, and from them should be built
the best team that has ever represented
the school.
While Tech is trying out against the
College Park squad the Central eleven,
which is the Manual Trainers greatest
rival for foot ball honors, will be playing
the Gonzaga College team. A fairly good
line on the relative abilities of the two
elevens can be obtained after the two
contests.
Whoever may win out in the battle for
the center job on the Georgetown team.
it is certain that the place will be we'll
taken care of this fall. Both Greer and
| Cunniff seem to be doing good work in
| the position. Cunniff is much lighter
than Greer, but he makes up whole lot
for his lack of weight in pure grit and
fighting ability. Greer. though, is put
ting up good game at center.
With Battste in the back field at Gal
laudet, the Bluff and Blue school wifi
have one of the best broken field run
ners in the smaller colleges to gain
ground or short end runs. Batiste. be-
sides being good broken field runner. is
an excellent defensive player.
Western will not play game until
Saturday or Monday. when it meets the
Georgetown Props. Eastern and Bust
ness will probably arrange practice games
| for about the same dates
