Evening star., 1912-11-23

yesterday in the game against Central
was the worst beating received by high
school eleven in mighty long while. Not
in recent years has one high school been
able to roll up such a big score on an
other as that which Central made against
Western.
And after ALL it was only to be ex
pected that Central should win by big
margin. The Blue and White combina-
tion was much stronger physically, and
was made UP of much more experienced
men. 1t was expected that 1t would fin
ish in front by a wide margin, but it was
hardly thought that such a number of
points would be run up as was secured.
Whether or not Gallaudet wins from
Johns Hopkins today, it will put up its
best kind of game and will give the Balt-
more eleven all that it is looking for to
win. Gallaudet had rather win the Hop
kins game, next to that with NJ. A. c.,
than any other it's schedule, and
it has been working since the NJ a. G.
contest with the view of meeting Hop
kins in it's best condition. According to
reports, the Kendall Green eleven is fit
for the fray. 1t is generally stated that
the team is in better shape than since
the season began. every man being abso-
lutely ready to put up the game of his
life.
The Maryland Aggies will go to West
minister today to meet the Western Mary
land eleven in crippled condition 1t
is rather coincidence, too, that both the
tackles will be out of the game. Neither
Hindman nor Bowland. the two regular
men in those positions, will be played.
two substitutes having been selected to
fill their places. Huntmann, the former
Business High lad will take Hindman's
place at right tackle. while Posey. an
other new man. will go in at left tackle.
All the remaining members Of the
Farmers eleven are in good condition
with the possible exception of White, who
has bad elbow. He will not be kept
out of the game. though. The backfield
is in almost perfect shape, as are the
others in the line
Shipley, who started the season as the
regular quarterback will play his first
game since the opening OF the season at
Richmond College At that time Shipley
received sprained ankle from which he
recently. He will probably be played
regularly in the two final games the one
today and the one Thanksgiving.
There is not a game to be played on a
local field today. Two of the colleges,
Georgetown and Catholic University, are
idle. and the other two. NJ A. c. and
Gallaudet. will take part in contests away
from home.
If the Maryland Aggies are able to stop
the fast backs of the Western Maryland
eleven from running their ends. they
should win from the upstate aggregation.
There are three track men in the West
ern Maryland quartet, and once they get
going are hard to catch.
The chief difficulty OF GaIlaudet against
Hopkins will be in breaking up the Bal
timore eleven's off tackle plays. Hopkins
has developed fairly successful style
of attack along that line and 1T Is not
easy to prevent 1t from gaining ground
on plunges in that direction.
If Gallaudet plays the kind of game
against Hopkins that 1t did against NJ:
A. c., there is little doubt that 1t will
make an enviable showing against the
Black and Blue. Though a team seldom
plays more than one game season such
as Gallaudet's showing in the contest
against the Farmers, it may rise to the
occasion today and get away with the
long end Of the score.
The Maryland Agricultural College
management has arranged a game for
Thanksgiving. While there was not
contest originally scheduled, two chances
were had to play, and when they were
placed before the athletic committee one
was accepted.
The Vigilants the local independent
eleven wanted the Aggies to meet them
here Thanksgiving morning. and that was
the date that was thought would be ac-
cepted but when college tried to Sc
cure the Farmers for the same time 1t
was deemed expedient by the athletic
committee to accept the engagement with
the school team. The college has always
been averse, of recent years, to allowing
it's foot ball team to compete against club
teams, no matter how good reputation
they may have won for themselves, and
1t was that factor which prevented the
eleven from appearing against the Vigi-
lants Thanksgiving.
The Aggies will go to Chester. Pa,
where they will play the Pennsylvania
Military College. The manager of the
eleven was directed to accept the date Of
fered by that institution after 1t had
made known certain conditions.
There is a possibility that Gallaudet
will meet the Vigilants Thanksgiving.
The Kendall Green eleven could be Sc
| cured for the date. 1t has been learned.
IL Gallaudet does not appear against
the Vigilants the Norfolk or Richmond
Blues will be brought here.
