BY THOMAS KIRBY.

Daley will be so busy with his numer-

School in September. and was called
out to act as assistant coach OF the
eleven. In this capacity he had charge
Of the second team, and made such n
impression that his selection as assist

The Washington times., 1912-03-17

The announcement that Frank Gar
Ean, under the title of assistant coach,
will be the field coach of the George
town football team next fall meets with
the unanimous approval of the players,
undergraduates, and alumni of the uni
versity.
Ever since the appointment of Vincent
Daley, last falls captain, as head
coach, there mas been considerable anN.
iety as to who his right hand man
would be. From the outset Gargan' i
name has been most prominent, but 1t
was not until yesterday that the head

reached an agreement whereby Gargan

selves at Georgetown Field in Septem-

Gargan will not be supreme, but the
understanding reached yesterday places
more responsibility on him than anyone
connected with the team except Head
Coach Daley. The outlining of the
policy that is to be followed will be up
to Daley, Gargan, Hegarty, and one
other, probably not a Georgetown man.
but once the system Is adopted the re-
sponsibility Of carrying it into effect
will be left to the man who was yester-
day appointed as Dailey's assistant.

NATIONALSHAVE 4
WASTED NO TIME
Will Be Ready to Go to Work When the Gong Sounds.
Griffith Has Accomplished Some Good for Team
Every Day.
BY SENATOR"

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va, March H.
Though the Nationals have been
beaten and buffeted about by the Rain
gods ever since descending upon this
hamlet under the shadow of the Blue
Ridge, they have done fairly well, con-
sidering conditions Their days OF work
under the blue vault of the sky have
been few and far between, and yet
Manager Griffith has been able to get
a glimpse OF several promising young
players. Indeed, the Nationals have
the best of hopes Of being ready when
the bell rings Certainly they can be in
no worse shape than many clubs which
have journeyed farther South only to
meet wretched weather, in many ways
worse than that handed out here.
Not a day has been wholly wasted
since the Nationals reported. Manager
Griffith has seen to it that every man
has worked hard and increasingly.
Griffith, in uniform, has been showing
the way to the strongest and best ath-
lete in the squad. If the lads have been
driven hard, they at least have had the
satisfaction OF knowing that their
leader was on his job and not sitting
in the grandstand cheering them on.
Walter Johnson is in first-class con-
dition, and, allowing for a slightly weak
arm. is ready to pitch the opening game
against the worlds champions tomor-
row. Dixie Walker is too heavy, but
his pitching arm is all o. K1 and his
batting eye keen and unclouded. Bobby
Groom is not ready to pitch yet, nor
is Buck Becker. Both these lads
need more work than they have yet
done.
Yet a Problem.
The young pitchers are a problem yet
to be settled. Private John" Allen,
Jerry Akers and Joe Boehling seem to
| have an edge on the other stripings
but their edge amounts to little A
