INDIANS PLAYS ARE
USED BY Scrubs
Against the Georgetown VAR
sity Eleven in Scrim-
mage.

1t is very doubtful if there was ever
any harder scrimmage on the George
town field than the one INDUCED in by
the varsity and second team yesterday
afternoon.
Every man on the squad was used,
with the exception of Dunn and Rhein-
child. Both of these men are at the
present time laid up with injured knees.
Rheinchild's knee is rounding UP as we'll
as can be expected, and he will be used
In the final scrimmage Wednesday. 1t
seems as though the big tackle broke a
blood vessel just above his knee, and it
has prevented him from running. In
Dunns case he will be used Saturday,
as this fact was finally decided upon in
conference with the attending physi-
clan yesterday. Dunn has had his knee
baked several times since he injured 1t,
and as a result the Inflammation and
swelling have gone down a great deal.
With Dunn in good shape again George
towns chances in the big battle Satur-
day have gone up great deal, as his
line plunging is the thing that is needed
in this particular contest.
Coaches Gargan and Dennis, who saw
the Carlisle and Pittsburgh game last
Saturday, have every play that the In
dams used in this contest, and, as a re-
suit, used them against the varsity yester-
day. The two coaches selected from the
scrubs and the varsity substitutes a very
formidable aggregation, using Calnan at
quarterback. with Van Dyne, Foley and
Curry as the remaining backs. These
backs used every play that Carlisle used
and in this way the varsity derived a
great deal of knowledge on the style of
play that they will run up against Satur-
day. One play that is certainly sure to
tIr
worry is the play where Thorpe. from
kick formal ton, carries the ball around
the end. Thorpe has for interference all
of his line, which shifts over on this play.
Van Dyne taking Thorpe's position on the
scrub team yesterday carried the ball
over the goal line on this play. The var
sity were not given the ball once, as the
coaches believe that their Offense is per-
fected. They believe that with the varsity
smashing up the plays that are used by
Carlisle that it will be more beneficial to
the team to work this way.
1t is very doubtful If either Moriarty
or Barron will be Outplayed Saturday, as
these two men, during the sixty-five min
utes of solid scrimmaging, showed more
than what was really expected of them.
They broke up play after play directed at
the center of the line and by their Won
derful work yesterday the Georgetown
coaches do not fear the Indians COM
ing through the center of the line.
From the manner in which the men
lined up yesterday it is apparent that
the coaches intend using Costello at quar-
terback. Calpan. who was used on the
scrubs. displayed class yesterday. but
Costello will surely start the game Satur-
day. The rest of the backfeld will be
White, fullback; Dunn and Murray, half
backs
The coaches will have the men out at
O'Clock this afternoon. and 1t is expected
that the work today will be even harder
than that INDUCED in by the men yester-
day. The coaches know that the team
needs plenty of hard work, and that is
what the men are receiving. Bill Hollen-
bach, personal friend of Coach Dennis,
has promised to be on hand today and
help the coaches out in putting on the
finishing touches.
