Brown, Tufts or Pittsburgh at Braves
Field on December 2, the Hilltoppers do
not expect to appear in New England
again this season. Their triumph over
Dartmouth at Haverhill, Mass. ie,to 0,
will stand as their one game in that sec
ton of the country this year.
Though Brown defeated Harvard yes
to-day, Georgetown does not expect the
Providence team to be in any kind of
shape the Saturday after Thanksgiving
Day. On that day Brown meets the
tough little Colgate eleven, and, IL the
Solgate-Ya game means anything.
Brown is wise in declining to meet the
Hilltoppers on the. Saturday following.
Therefore, Georgetown has but three
games remaining on its schedule, those
with Bucknell next Saturday at the
Hilltop. with George Washington on
Turkey Day and with Tulane at New
Orleans on December Q.
Today Charles Cox and Albert Ex-
endine are in Pittsburgh with Glen
Warner. Exendine and Warner, OF
course, are old friends, the former
having been under Warner as player
and assistant coach. Georgetown
wants to meet Pitt in Pittsburgh next
teams left off three years ago.
Navy Score Passed.
In defeating North Carolina A. and
M, Georgetown passed the Navy score
of 80 to 0. That was all the Hilltoppers
wanted The Middies, taking advantage
OF the lack of work obtained by the
Hilltoppers, defeated them in their first
game of the year. Undoubtedly George
town could easily win today IL opposed
20 the Navy eleven.
Ever since winning from Dart
mouth and Fordham, Georgetown has
sought to make a record better than
that of the Navy. Not until yester-
day did the Blue and Gray meet a
team that had already played the
Middies, and the Hilltoppers ran wild
against the Aggies, defeating Them
danger of losing the game. Once the
Hilltoppers started their running
game, the result was foreseen. The
Aggies didn't have chance.
Gameness Is Praised.
The gameness OF the North Caro-
lima Aggies Is deservedly praised.
When all was dark and dreary, the
Aggies were still in the game. They
were in II enough for McMurray to
intercept a forward pass and carry II
forty-flve yards to the Hilltoppers' 10
yard line. Three successive plays al
lowed Lee to shove the ball across
the line for a well-earned touchdown.

ing q touchdown against team that
Dartmouth was unable to score
against
Georgetown was a topheavy fav-
orite when the battle opened, but the
Hilltoppers will need a lot of work
this week before they will satisfy
their coach, Al Exendine. For one
thing, the line was way OFF form.
The Aggies' forwards more than held
their own against Georgetown.
Showalter Is Good.
The only real stars in the George
town line were Showalter, at left
guard, and Mccarthy, at left tackle.
Time and again these two players
spilled Carolina plays. On the other
side of the line, Georgetown was rep
resented by wooden men in Capt. Dan
O'Connor, Frank Green, and zuger.
Van Brocklin, Rice, Temple, and
Pearson had no trouble gaining
Georgetown line. The Blue and
Gray line failed to show its class
against the Aggies, no matter what
IL did at Haverhill or New York.
usuaHy fiery game, but he did moth.
ing startling. Indeed, there were
times when he was wholly out OF the
play.
BackfieId Is Good.
In the backfeld Gilroy, whose
end running was excellent, and Wall
were the shining stars. They were gen.
orally good for whatever was de-
manded of them.
Jackie Maloney held his own, but
there was a noticeable quickening
in the attack the moment Jim Sulli-
van replaced him.
Gilroy proved himself the same
elusive individual that he has ever
been, once he took the ball, but he
was weak on making interference
All in ali, "Petie" Wall was the
best man in the backfeld for the
Blue and Gray. considering defense
and offense.
Gilroy Scores First.
Georgetown kicked Off to open the
scramble and, following an exchange
of punts, Georgetown had the ball
ana Immediately opened its running
attack. Wall raced around left end
for twenty yards and 1or rasn a GIr0S
right end for a touchdown, kicking
the goal from touchdown.
The Aggies had trouble following
their kiekoff, and the home team was vas
visitors territory. Quickly the ball
was carried to the 1-yard line, where
the Aggies held for downs. A block
ed punt gave Wnelan IL tOuCHuo"h
and, the kickout falling, the score
was 10 to O..
There was no more scoring in the first
period. the ball see-sawing up and down
the field.

get center, intercepted forward pass
