to play much better foot ball than 1t
showed against Eastern to finish In
front.
It was never expected that Western
would win from Tech yesterday. The
eleven did not have enough power in II
to take a game from combination OF
the strength of the Manual Trainers out
fit Western has too light material to
compete on even terms with the Technl-
cal team. With men who average ten or
twelve pounds lighter than the Manual
Trainers. 1t is a difficult matter to turn
out a combination to compete on even
terms with them.
Gallaudet will go to Washington Col
lege Saturday to meet that eleven. the
Kendall Green aggregation will probably
be up against very capable combina-
ton. but the eleven will be strengthened
considerably by the addition Of two OF
the regulars who did not play last week
against the Norfolk Blues. Washington
College has not yet lost game this sea-
son. The team has defeated every
eleven it has met. although it has had
some very narrow escapes. The major
ity Of the contests have been won by the
narrow margin OF a single touchdown,
eleven has a very capable defense. Any
team which can continually prevent the
elevens in it's class from scoring under
present conditions Is much above the
ordinary. -e.--t
Georgetown will have Rheinchild back
in the lineup in time for the game with
Virginia. That must be gladstone news
to the hilltop supporters, because there Is
no more powerful lineman In the Blue
and Gray squad than the Californian.
Rheinchild is exceptionally capable both
on the defense and ofYense. and he would
be certain to be missed in any contest
of the Importance OF that with the Char
lottesville school.
1t was feared Immediately after the
Carlisle game that Rheinchild had a cou-
pie Of. broken ribs, but that has proved
not to be true.
At meeting Of the Yankee basket
Arthur Schaffer was elected to the cap
taincy for the coming year.
In Fuller. Lafollette and Bethel. West
ern has three men behind the line who
have never before played foot bal.
Neither of the trio has had the least ex-
peiience in the game until this year.
This man White who Is Playing tackle
for Technical High is probably one Of
the best men playing in the scholastic
series. While it Is possible that one or
two others weigh more than he. it is not
Likely that any Of them is any stronger
physically. Tall. rangy and powerful,
White is probably the strongest man

has almost the ideal build for tackle.
Fury was given a job on the All-South
At antic eleven asst fall by almost every
critic who made a selection. 1t may vel
be understood that Georgetown has some
mighty classy material TO- Its backfield
when he cannot make regular position
Fury is a great broken field runner and
is strong enough to hit the line fairly
well. That he cannot make a regular
place on the present eleven speaks
mighty wei for the backs who have Sc
cured the positions.
Gal'audet has an exceptionally fast
backfield The Kendall Green eleven owes
much of its success so far this season to
that factor. The men who compose the
quartet are all fast, and capable Of carry
ing the ball well. Some powerful line
plays which cover very clever crisis
crosses are the main points of attack and
the Kendall Greeners are fast enouch
and clever enough at handling the ball to
carry the Mays through almost perfectly.
The majority of gains which have been
made bv Gallaudet so far this season
have been due to the ability Of the men
to run in an open field as we'll as hit the
lire for substantial distances.
Besides being clever In gaining ground,

The Navy will meet the Western Re
serve eleven Saturday. and will not
neglect any efforts this week TO imnrove
itself both on the offense and defense.
