OUTLOOK
Is MUCH BRIGHTER

CHARLOTTESVILLE Va, Sept. 10
When questioned today after practice,
Coach Speed" Elliott was more opu-
mistic concerning the material on hand
than he was last week.
Arnold Sheldon has written that he
will surely be on hand hv tina and of
tho weeK.- said ETnort, and would
have been here sooner If his mother had
not been taken seriously i'll. This makes
our backfield chances look 100 per cent
brighter. If Sheldon is one-haif as good
as he is cracked up to be, he will do.
Charley Crawford has seen him in
action, and declares him the most prom
islng back he has seen In a long time.
Then today during our workout. my
eyes were opened to big Acree, who
halls from Augusta Military Academy.
He looked mighty fine today In tackle.
and | only wish we might convert him
into an end.
Il stop trying to think how ! am
going to place so many likely looking
forwards. Acree played well today.
A heavy doWnpour greeted the VIZ
ginia football candidates yesterday aft
ernoon, after they had been on the field
but ten minutes. Speed" Elliott did
not take pity on the boys, though but
drove them through two solid hours OF
hard practice
With the rain coming down in tor
yents the squad wa again kept at
runnlns down under kicks and tack
ling hucking the line and straight
, tackling. Elliott changed his mind
about scrimmage today and now in
tends TO wait until saturday. Big Bill
Maiden, with Acree, as mentioned. was
the shining star OF the afternoon. For

his Quiekness' Going down the field

Four Strong Players
Report at Princeton

PRINCETON, Sept. 19.-The Princeton
coaches put their charges through five
hours Of hard practice here yesterday.
The first scrimmage which was orig
poned until today. The Tigers pros
poets were given a strong boost in this
afternoons workout when four men. all
Of whom are practically sure Of var
sity berths reported for practice. They
are Dunlap and Wight, ends; Waller,
halfback. and E. Trenkman, tackle.
Dunlap was Sam Whites running
mate at end last year. Waller, who
was captain of the 1914 freshman eleven
bu twas Ineligible last year, is an adept
both at line plunging and open field
running and will be a tower of strength
in the back field.
The Washington times., 1912-09-19

the V. P. I. end. was tried out on the
hrst team with success. He Is fast and
handles the ball we'll and looks to be
In almost perfect condition.
1t is ANNOUNCED today that scrimmage
work will be taken up the middle OF
next week Captain Hegarty thinks the
candidates are hardly in condition to
take up the heavier going at present.
and says that the weather Is still too
warm to do much more than has been
done for the past week.
-.
Members of the Catholic University
football team are looking forward to
next Tuesday, when the candidates for
the football teams are to be callh out.
Nothing but satisfaction is expressed
over the announcement that Harry Nc
Dewitt, the old Dartmouth quarterback,
Is to coach the team.
1t was understood that McDevitt and
Mccarthy were under consideration.
but that Mccarthy bad the call for the
job. McDevitt was a member OF the
1907 Dartmouth team and has success
fully coached Colby College in Maine
That the Catholic University team will
be in capable hands is the general opin-
ion Of those in charge at the Brookland
institution.
Manager Charles P. Maloney has been
in touch with all of last years vet
the Goth. Captain Blewitt is expected
to return some time this week to look
over the ground. John Greer. who
starred at center at the university last
season, has been engaged to assist
Coach McDevitt.
The Maryland Agricultural College
team under the direction of Coach
Byrd and Captain Hoffecker will have
its initial workout today at College
Park. Prospects are unusually bright.
as number Of veterans have promised
to be on hand. Several new men are
expected to make an appearance, and
the team Is expected to uphold the rec
ord made last season.
or the newcomers, Morris. the former
Tech player; Hunteman, of Business
High; Loomis. of Western; and Giebel,
of the Vigilants, are expected to put in
an appearance. All of these players
have had considerable experience on

make good from the start

FOR EVERY PL ACE
Hoppers Are Confident of Developing Excellent Mater
ial for the Second Eleven-Appointment of McDe-
witt as G. u. Coach Commended.
BY BRYAN MORSE.

With the large squad Of candidates
on hand at the Hilltop reporting for
practice every day, the coaching staff
Is almost sure Of developing at least
two good men for every position on the
team. The shifts into elevens at pres
ent in the practices indicate clearly
that this policy will be followed and
the fact that Hamilton and Van Dyne.
the Central High School players, and
Marum. the former Prep star are be-
ing used as q second string backfleld
is significant.
With the men on hand at present a
capable eleven could be picked out now.
1t is clear that Coaches Gargan and
Bennis intend to give the regulars Of
the last years eleven the call for the
places until some Of the youngsters
show their mettle in displacing them.
Jim Dunn, by his consistent work and
enthusiasm. is being rewarded by being
placed on the first team backfeld with
White and Costello. Fury Is unable to
report until late in the afternoon, but
Dunn's physical condition Is we'll nigh
perfect. He has shown the right spirit,
getting into trim early in the summer,
and reporting in first-class shape. Dunn
and Costello are the talk of the col
iege and draw all the attention OF the
onlookers.
At present the first string squad which
takes signal practice Is composed of
Williams, center; Bryant, guard; Mori-
arity, guard; Hegarty and Donnelly,
ends: Foley, quarter, with Fury. White,
Costello, and Dunn in the backfleld.
That the forward pass Is likely to
play an important part in the games
on the Hilltop this season is shown by
the arly attention that Coach Benpis
Is giving to this feature of the game.
All of the backfield men are being given
instruction in the manipulation of the
oval and the men are rapidly acuiring
the knack of shooting the ball with ac-
curacy to the waiting ends and half
backs.

Business and Tech to
Practice This Week

Before the week is out two more
Washington high school football teams
will have reported for practice All
diffulty regarding suits and faculty
consent has been cleared away at
Business High School. and Principal
Davis has given his consent for the
Orange and Blue eleven to proceed with
its practice.
Clarence HecoX, coach of TechniCal's
eleven, is at present out of the city, but
he hopes TO return in time to have his
proteges on the gridiron by Saturday.
Technical has lost the services of last
years star, Country" Morris, who is
attending Maryland Agricultural Col
lege. Captain Eckendorf is the only
one OF last years leaders that will re-
turned for the Maroon and Gray team.

under punts he would hit his man sure
ly every time.
Maiden is a faster man than "Hev''
Carter, and weighs as much when the
latter Is down in condition. Carter was
excused from practice on account of
the injury received Tuesday. He walked
with quite a noticeable limp.
MaxSon, une new man VINO arriv eu
from Texas, was on the field. He is tall
and very fast Elliott tried him for
half on one of the scrub teams and
he made favorable impression. Den
mis-, candidate for one of the end po-
sitions, was likewise on hand. He is
of medium height, of stocky build, and
weighed in at l62 Ted" Bowen, who
captained the Orange and Blue the first
part of last season was an Interested
spectator at the practice. Bowen was
only passing through on a business
trip, but hopes to get back later and
help out with the punters.

Compares players.

This business of taking two teams
about to enter a worlds series and COM
pairing player for player to arrive at a
conclusion as to which team is the bet
ter. is more or less a joke. Just be-
cause Larry Doyle happens to have
more stolen bases than Yerkes. or Stahl
has whanged out more three-ba ggers
Yet we will have the usual man-for-
man comparison, and at the end of the
fight those who happened to luck out in
the dope will be unusually chesty, while
those who took a chance and failed will
either attempt a futile explanation or
crawl into the subcellar.

Delehanty hitting.

Since Jim Delehanty went back to
the American Association he has been
hitting like a house afre. He leads
the circuit with mark of .446, and
should be at the head of the race when
the season is over. There never was
Delehanty who couldn't hit, for that
matter, and he is only living up to the
family reputation. Del will hardly be
back in the big show because of the
events which grew out OF the Cobb in
cident In Philadelphia.

What coaches are doing.

Another week will be necessary for
the coaches before 1t is possible to get
into anything like hard scrimmages for
the football teams. Up to this time the
days have been spent in getting the
men into something like good physical
condition. Speculation Is rife as to the
possibilities of the new code and until
the teams have a chance to line men up
against them the coaches will have to
rest content. The possibilities OF the
forward pass seem to be taking a great
deal of attention and it would not be
surprising TO see many of the teams
depend on this for gaining many yards
this season.
The Washington times., 1912-09-19
We won two.

Yesterdays double win was as graft
flying as 1t was surprising. Even the
most sanguine had little idea that the
crippled Nationals would be able to
come through with two wins into second
place and the boys deserve all the credit
that they can get. Two days rest were
needed and the Browns were taken into
camp in good shape. Cashion pitched
one of his good games and Bob Groom
added to his already respectable num-
Der of straight wins.
