GEORGETOWN WILL
! HAVE HARD SEASON
ON 1912 GR|DIRON
Dap Daley Arranging
Long List of Football
Contests.

Enough dates have already been COM
pleted to indicate that the Georgetown
football schedule next fall will be in
every respect quite as severe a test as
the one which the eleven SO successfully
negotiated last year.
1t was thought that. perhaps, with .
complete change In the coaching plan,
a lighter list Of games might be select
ed until the new system Is In entire
working order. but it has been decided
to put on the biggest games possible.
Already four games are assured. which
is about half the complete schedule. Tho
squad will be called out on September
IS or Is. which means that light game
with some Washington team may bs
booked for Saturday. September q. The
following Saturday is. as yet. open. but
on October II, Washington and Lee viii
be the team that will start in the
strenuous contests. The Lexington
eleven has been coming fast in the
past two seasons. and should prove .
pretty tough opponent.
Go To Raleigh.
On October II Georgetown goes 70
Raleigh to play North Carolina A. and
NJ. College. which put in a claim for
South Atlantic honors two years ago
after holding the Blue and Gray to q
scoreless tie. This game win be played
In conjunction with the annual State
fair, and is expected to draw q largo
crowd.
Between the meeting with the Tar
s ees snd drd dhe mdG t, OF N1yember the
In action at Georgetown Field. Grad
uate Manager Daley has been in COM
munication with Glenn Warner for sew
eral weeks, and, while both institutions
are anxious for a game. a date has
not yet been settled upon.
November is has been set aside for
the annual engagement with Virginia
here and on Thanksgiving day, v. p.
L. will be at Georgetown Field, succeed
ing Lehigh. This Is expected to be a
| much harder closing game than In past
| seasons. as Lehigh was never in shape
when IL came to Washington, following
the Lafayette game the preceding
Saturday. while Virginia Tech will be
most anxious to win because of the
effect the result will have on the stand
! ings of the teams In this section Of
| the East.
| No Navy Game.
Navy's schedule is SO crowded that
| no game will be possible with the Mid
| shipmen. and the Army game has been
| passed up because of the impossibility
| Of financial gain after the rather long
| trip. Princeton was also considered for
| a game. but this has been voted mex
| pedient
DALEY has talked Of trip to the ex-
treme South to meet one Of the repre-
| sentative teams in those parts. The
| University OF Georgia has been consid-
| cred as 1t has figured Georgetown would
i be a great drawing card against the
State Institution at Atlanta. Not since
| Georgia and Virginia broke years ago,
| has a team from this section gone to
Atlanta, and Georgia would welcome
! such visitor next fall. The long trip
cap to such an arrangement. although
\ 1t Is conceded that q game in the
| Georgia metropolis would probably put
a good lump sum in Georgetown's ath-
| letic treasury.

haps, to this city a. it illustrates what is a
common thing here, namely. that business
follows the street car tracks. The Avenue
is also on account of It's direction, crossing
at an angle the rectangular system of
streets. a highway for all that part Of
the city. To the south a good part of the
section between Pennsylvania avenue and
New York avenue was at one time one of
the fashionable residence sections of the
city.
The evidences of this can be seen at
the present time in spite of the great
changes that have taken place, which has
brought apartment houses along III and
G and F streets and also number OF
government offices. One of the localities
where perhaps the changes have been
less than in any other is on + street west
of 18th street. Some years ago the large
house at the northwest corner of 18th and
streets standing in the midst of ample
grounds was purchased by the late Chief
Justice Fuller. The house was changed
somewhat, and there the chief justice
lived. The place is now the property and
the home of Mrs. Thaw. On the opposite
corner is an old-time place that is still
larger, but it stands there unaltered
with the old brick wall running around
the grounds, which are extensive for
city house 1t is occupied by the bureau
of insular affairs
Farther to the west and adjoining the
above, is another old house with
generous provision for lawns and gar
dens. 1t is now occupied by the Ju-
venile Court. Some of the old places
have been fitted up and occupied by
the owners, and no doubt are looked
at with envious eyes by those who do
not like the cramped quarters of the
average city house. Perhaps the most
marked change is the glimpse one gets
of Potomac Park, which closes the
vista of all the streets to the south.
The tangled marsh which was only
few steps south of + street, and when
then formed the banks of the Potomac,
has given place to the beauty and the
freshness of the lawns of that mag
nificent park.
The influence upon the immediate
locality as well as upon the healthful-
ness of the entire city, when the fats
were reclaimed, is, of course, great
one. The tide of building and i'm
provement has been turned in that di-
rection, as is quite evident from the
changes that have been made in the
character of the buildings. The great
home of the Y. M. c. A. is located
there A modern Office building for
the use Of the civil service commission

There.

To older citizens the high board fence
at Vermont avenue and II street north
west. which surrounds what is to be the
underground stories of the new Airing
ton Hotel building, makes that locality
wear strange appearance and it takes
some minutes for one to adjust himself
to the surroundings. 1t is not easy even
for an old resident to recognize I street
when seen for the first time from such
a point of view as II street, when it has
been concealed all these years by the
mass of buildings of the Arlington Hotel.
Residences of Former Period.
There are. however. some people whose
recollections go back some forty years or
more and who are able to recall the ap-

period, with yards about them and plenty

be known as the Sumner house up to the

joining house on II street was the home
for number of years of Senator Pome-
