Rover's Hurting Team
Shows Plenty of ''Pep"

Hurting seems to be making keen
impression on the players of the
Washington Rovers hurting team. The
teams showed more pep yesterday than
they ever did since the game started
here. The playing was so accurate 1t
made the spectators sit up and take
notice
The players put a lot Of life in
the game by blocking the carrying of
the ball. also watching their oppo-
nents' position and emitting fouls
Only one foul was committed, this be-
ing unintentionally caused by the su-
perior height of the opponent, but II
happened to the captain, and he called
his opponents hand, which gave him
a free puck.
The game beat last Sundays a mile.
Scoring was a hard feat until three
quarters of the game was played,
when White. from Soldiers Home, and
his teammate, O'Connor. stole the ball
from BILLY Burke" and scored two
successive goals.
John Healey tried hard to score for the
opposing team, but was blocked by
O'Keeffe However, he succeeded in
scoring points in the second half of the
game.
Healy worked hard to get hurting in
this town a lifetime game, and hopes
some day soon he can pick team from
the Washington Rovers which can hold
their own with any team in the country.
It looks like a team from his club can
let any team know they were playing.
Some spectators claim that have seen
professional games played in the "Old
Dot" that at least ten or twelve OF the
Washington Rovers are as good as any
they have ever seen.
The absence of Leach and Pete Healy

All our formations which we have used.
in previous games this season have been
discarded and a new line OF attack and
new signals have been given the team.
as Fordham had quite a large number
of scouts at West Point when We played
the Army team. If they figure on the
same line of attack which we used
against Army they will be sadly mis-
taken and will prove easy pickings for
US, as the formations which We are to
use against Fordham are the best as
sortment Of plays that 1t has ever been
my privilege to use.
/ am sure that we will be able to fool
Fordham hankers with our fast sweep
ing offensive off-tackle play. which the
team has down pat, and as our forwards
have shown all season that they COM
pare with any in the East l am sure that
Fordham will not make any long gains
through our line.
This game will be the first this year In
which we will enter the fray to play an
Offensive game, as during the past con-
tests we have been sent in to play de-
fensfve game and II it has been taken
notice of we have always kicked to our
opponents at the opening of the game
and have tried to play a kicking game
during most Of our battles. l am not
criticising this style of playing, as IN
most of the past contests some break OF
the game has always given US INC w
portunIty to jump on the offensive with
the ball in our opponents territory.
Twice we have been victorious In
this style OF play. but since we viii go
into this fray using all our offensive
strength at all times 1 am confident
we will come through with flying
colors.
No one actually connected with the
GEORGETOWN team has watched the
Fordham eleven in practice or in
game this season, and we have not
any line on their plays but We will
be able to stop any line OF attack they
will send at us.
1t is not quite certain who Will make
the trip today. but thirty members OF
the squad along with the coaches will
be in the party which will leave over
the Pennsylvania road at 3 o'clock
Just who will start the game in the
back field is not known. as Coach
Exendine would not state last night
what quartet he would start. Dew
hurst has been showing up well in the
full back position. and ! think he will
be the choice to start the game. while
Johnny Gilroy and Pete Wall will be
his running mate. Smith may start at
quarter back, but If Dempsey is not
in the first quartet to take the field II
is probable that Jackie Maloney will
be found in that position. Lyons, in
all proba bility, will get into the game,
as his work at hitting the line and
punting has been a big factor in the
scrimmage the past week.

HONUS WAGNER ON
THE GRIDIRON GAME

Along with hunting. fishing and basket
ball there is nothing HaDs Wagner has
a greater liking for than football. The
best OF 1t is that Hopus knows the fine
points of the gridiron sport from year to
year. though he does not play it He
follows the dope closely as millions
follow him in baseball. and TO sit with
him and hear him call plays in a game
between two fast elevens is a revelation.
Asked one time II he thought II re-
CURED as much gameness to play base
ball as football. Honus replied: 1t
takes every bit as much. Every foot
ball player can't play baseball up to the
standard, and I might add that every
ball player can't play football. But II
takes nerve and gameness to face a
pitchers speed and take your chances,
ana a ball player must carry more in
juries and stand up under them longer
than any football player. II is an every
day grind on the diamond: two months
and one game a week with practice on
the gridiron. But II takes courageous
men in both games, and they certainly
work toward the perfection of game
