klckerS this season, Georgetown bids
fair to complete its schedule honorably,
for the Blue and Gray is we'll equipped
with lads who can boot the pieskin far
and accurately. Skip" Wymard. Har-
ry Costello. Fury, and Magner have
shown, class as punters. Wymard Is
one Of the best punters in this section.
Fury's kicking against Carlisle, while
not spectacular, was good enough, and
even young Magner got away few
kicks in the face Of the charging In
dians.
Costello. though failing to score a
field goal against Carlisle. is a capable
drop-kicker. His work against Virginia
last season stamped him as one of the
best drop -kickers in the game, As soon
as he gets into better shape he should

Coach Nielsen plans to strengthen the
kicking department of the team on the

Brisk Practice Today.
Practice today at Georgetown should
be little brisker than yesterdays.
Most Of the veterans were lame and
stiff from their battle with the Indians,
and some did not even report for work.
Wymard, Barriscello. Fury, Bryant, and
White took the afternoon off, getting a
much-needed rest
Bergen's clean and hard tackling at
left end against Carlisle resulted in his
day. The position was strange to him.
but he showed plenty Of life and snap
to his work. "'Blondy' Rheinschiid, the
big boy from Michigan, worked out at
fore, Heiskii filled the other haifback
place. The three substitutes did not
work very smoothly together, but moth
ing much was expected of them.
Rheinschild a Conner.
Rheinschild seems certain to force his
way into the varsity lineup. He is q

He plays football because he likes the
game, q big asset in a varsity man.
Another department of the game that
received considerable attention from
Coach Nielsen was tackling. The work
Of the ends and the secondary defense
against Carlisle was execrabie in this
respect, Time and again the Indian run
ners gained their distance after hitting
the line, shaking off from two to four
GEORGETOWN tacklers. In the Richmond
game next Saturday the Blue and Gray
should show some improvement in this
feature of the game, for the lads were
kept hard at work yesterday. hurling
