VETERANS TO PLAY
LAST GAME TODAY
Cunniff, Wymard, DALEY and
Sitterding Play Final Game
for Georgetown Today.

When the final whistle blows today for
the ending of the Lehigh
game it will not only mark the passing
of the 1911 foot ball season into gridiron
history. but also the last appearance OF
Capt Daley, Skip Wymard, Billie Sit
terding and Mike Cunniff as representa-
tives Of the West End institution on the
foot ball field These four veterans will
never again don moleskins. as they nave
played their full four years of collegiate
foot ball and will graduate from the Hill
ton school in June. The aforementioned
men have not only been prominent IN
foot ball circles, but have played an i'm
nortant part in nearly all the branches
of athletics at the university over Rock
creek.
Can Daley, leader of the Blue and
GRAY cohorts for two years, and the only
man to he reelected to the captaincy OF
the Georgetown eleven in two successive
years. has not only been the major OF
two teams that have been without doubt
the best that the Hilltop institution has
ever had in the history Of the fall sport
at the West End university, but was also
the most aggressive organizer that has
ever had charge of the gridiron gladi-
arors since foot ball was first taken up
as a prominent factor in Blue and Gray
athletics For the past two years Daley
has been at the head of aggregations that
have triumphed over Virginia. feat
which stands first with every loyal
Georgetown man.
Wymard, one of the varsity tackles for
the past three years and one of the most
successful track managers that George
town has ever known. has at all times
during his four years at the West End
institution given the best that was in him
to his college, and has never let little
differences that have arisen at different
times interfere with what he considered
his duty toward the school. When Wy
mard did not receive the captaincy of
this past seasons squad, to which he
had a just claim, he did not allow the
fact to interfere with his going out and
making the Blue and Gray eleven and
putting forth his best possible efforts.
Skip is one of the strongest contenders
for the all-southern. team this year, on
which eleven he was placed in 1909.
Mike Cunniff and Bill Sitterding, the
former being one of the best linemen that
has been seen on a local field, and the lat
ter acknowledged the best quarterback
and field general that has ever been at
Georgetown University, have played to-
gether through the West End Prep School
and in nearly all the varsity foot ball
games for the last four years. Both men
were stars among the stars that have
been on the gridiron over the creek and
were among the most consistent players
on the local outfit. Cunniff, although out
weighed 10y nearly every center that he
lined up against, was invariably given
the decision. for his playing was at all
times characterized by that never give
in spirit that has given Cunnin the just
reputation that he SO well deserves. Mike
is a member of the executive board of the
athletic association as treasurer of the
athletic funds, and was captain of the
varsity crew In 1910.
Bill Sitterding Is one man that George
