Glenn Warner Suggests Hilltoppers' Tutor to Sue

By LOUIS A. BOUCHER.

With Georgetown on the threshold
Of bigger football glories, it is pos
sible that the man whose brain has
put the Blue and Gray sports on the
map will be lost. According to ad-
vices received here today from Car
Isle, Albert A. Exerdine, head coach
CT The Hilltop, may be named to sue
ceed Glenn S. Warner. The George
town coach played end at Carlisle in
his school days and is considered by
Warner "the best equipped football
coach available to follow me here
with the Indian athletes"
Exendine, who is practicing at
torney in Oklahoma when not coach
ing football players, is expected to
receive the call to Carlisle within a
day or so. Glenn Warner will take
Up his duties at Pittsburgh Univer
sity on January /, and the authori-
ties at the Government school want
E&endine to be ready to jump right
intp action with the new year.
Georgetown has Exendine working
neie under a one-year contract, which
ooInes to an end with the passing OF
the present football campaign. He will
be free as soon as the Gallaudet con-
test is over on Thanksgiving Day. IL
is not known Just what his answer will
De to the Carlisle author. ties, or what
Georgetown will do III the way OF get
m tn succeed him hpvf II lie
is allowed TO get away.
The success of Exendine at George
town has been remarkable. He has
whipped a squad consisting largely Of
freshmen into a defensive machine that
nas fought some of the strongest
eleyens in the East to a standstili.
Handicapped by q lack of heavy backs,
he has been compelled to pay most OF
his attention 10 the line and he has ore
OF the best of the season. OF a quiet,
unassuning nature, the famous Indian
end of other days has made large
nurlber of friends since coming to the
Capital and. If he goes to, Carlisle next
year. he will be missed here.
III Georgetown's future depended upon
its performances against w. and j..
Lne Hilitoppers have little to worry
aoout today. Bob Foiwen came TO
Georgetown Field. thinking to pull out
his varsity men after the first period
10 save them for Bucknen and Rue
;sers. Instead, those regulars had the
nght of their lives to keep from being
beaten. Had the Blue and Gray pos
sessed a heavy attack. there Is no tell

Two touchdowns were chalked UP fos'
the Pennsylvanians, but half the con- |
test had gone before Spiegel got away
for a short, jumping. lodging run
around his left end bringing the ball

Coach Exendine is inclined to believe !
that w. and J. would never have scored !
that first touchdown but. a mistake in !

Instead OF punting down into W. and J. !
territory, Georgetown sCrimmaged, and |

touchdown was scored.
