HILLTOP VARSITY
Donnelly Playing End for Re-
serves, Runs 80 Yards for
a Touchdown.
STOPS FORWARD PASS
Condition of Blue and Gray Eleven
Not as Diseouraging as Re-
ports State.

One hour of the hardest kind of scrim-
mage was on the program for the George
town football candidates at the Hilltop
yesterday, and the cool weather helped
the players a whole lot A
\ Tearing through the scrub defense
almost at will the varsity lads rolled up
half a dozen touchdowns, while the only
score made by the reserves was nego-
tiated by Tad Donnelly, who intercepted
a forward pass and ran 50 yards across
the goal line.
Charley Cox, the man who discovered
that Harry Costello was a real football
player while coaching the scrubs four
years ago, was on hand yesterday and
assisted Coaches Gargan and Hart, also
acting as referee during the scrimmage.
Dave White, the disbarred star, was
umpire.
Barron shifted to Tackle.
Barron was shifted from guard to
left tackle. and while new TO the posi-
tion. looked as if little coaching might
develop him into a good man.
Georgetown this season is using direct
passes for both end runs and line
smashes, and the regulars are gradually
learning TO handle the ball with few
fumbles.
For end runs, direct passes are used
by the majority of teams in the country,
but for line smashes it is claimed that
plays are slowed up. Georgetown's
coaches evidently figure that IL the
Carlisle Indians can gain with this style
of attack, their charges should be able
to do so. Only time will tell as to the
wisdom of this attack.
While Georgetown's line is lighter than
any line the .Hilltoppers have played the
past four years, it is not light enough
to be outclassed by teams the wearers
of the blue and gray will Meet this
season, and there is a wealth of backfield
material. also ends so the situation at
Georgetown is nowhere near so discour-
aging as reports would lead one to be-
lieve.
For the first time since the writer can
remember the coaches have all the say,
and run the team. instead of the team
running the coaches.
Coaches the Bosses.
Frank Gargan was sweeping in his
criticism on the field yesterday. If
veteran linesman failed to do what was
expected of him Gargan promptly
'bawled" him out before his team mates,
which is as it should be.

going at their tasks in a businesslike
manner. Play was fast and snappy at
all stages, and not a murmur OF COM
plant was heard.
Moriarity, the big linesman who was
caressed on the dome with a pair of
cIeated shoes in Annapolis last Saturday,
sustaining a nasty scalp wound, was not
in togs, but on the field following the
plays.
Rated as one of the best men in the
line, Moriarity will surely be in Satur-
days game against the strong Virginia
Medical College team. which aggregation,
by the wayy is said to be unusually
strong.
Another tough scrimmage, when sew

TOSCANINPS DEBUT.
He Was Literally Forced to Conduct
Opera the First Time.

As an opera conductor TOscanini
seems both to have achieved greatness
and to have had greatness thrust upon
him. In the Century Max Smith, giving
character sketch Of the eminent mu-
stefan, thus describes his first triumph.
Toscanini was in Rio de Janeiro, doing
double duty in the opera house as first
cellist and assistant chorus master.
The season had gone badly from the
beginning. One conductor had been re-
jected, and matters reached a crisis
when an indignant audience, assembled
to hear Aida" refused to accept the
services of an incompetent substitute,
compelling him by main force to leave
the orchestra, amid jeers, Kisses and
catcalls before the unfortunate man
had lifted his baton.
The impresario was in a quandary,
when a delegation of influential SUBJ
scribers insisted that he should not
abandon the performance. They were
ready. they said, to accept as leader
any musician in the orchestra rather
than the man dismissed.
Some one suggested Toscanini, who
beat retreat to the stage, where he
was found trying to hide in the wings.
His efforts to escape were futile. No
excuse was accepted. Forced into the
clawhammer coat worn by the cOstumer
Of the theater. he was dragged into the
pit and lifted bodily to the conductors
stand, while the crowd roared it's ap-
proval.
The youthful maestro seized the
baton, and suddenly the noise was
quelled. He held at once the undivided
attention not only of the orchestra, but
of the mob. Every one could see that
he was conducting from memory. Even
then, making his first appearance as a
leader, he was Independent of the score,
and so an evening that begun with
tumultuous protests ended with bois-
ferrous demonstrations of enthusiasm,
insuring the cellist's employment as
conductor to the end of the season
Brute force had launched him on his
brilliant career. The news of his SEN
sational debut was flashed across the
ocean, and thereafter the doors OF ev-
cry opera house in Italy were open to
him.

The veteran painter, Harpig-
MES, is not so generous. for he
sets the time of beauty at from
l6 to 20 yeaIs-the age of youth
full simplicity unmarried by the
cares add anxieties which years
bring in their train. M. Gabriel
Terrier, on the other hand, &C.
cords to beauty a lengthy reign.
He considers the woman of to-
day is beautiful from the age of
rs to so, for she has become
mistress of the art of how to
make the best of herself with
the help of skilled dressmakers
and modists.
M. Barthalome, the famous
sculptor of the beautiful Parthe-
non statues. sets the time of
beauty at between the ages of
18 and 25, but with the reserva-
ton there is no true beauty with
out goodness, and that beauty of
face and form, without beauty
of soul, has no appeal to him.
Jean Boucher, another famous
sculptor, says that woman is at
her best between the ages 16 and
80, though from youth to old
age she is adorable! What would
appear to be the most comfoting
opinion of all, however, from the
point of view of the fair sex, is
that expressed by the famous
portrait painter, Francois Flame
ing "a woman's greatest beau
ty may dawn at any time between
the ages of IS and So" he says.
'Let every man form his own
opinion. according t o individual
taste. as to which of these years
a woman is at her best"
