when By Dickson stepped out on the
marines parade grounds at the Navy
Yard several weeks ago to start the
Devil Dogs off in the way they should
go, footbaliCally eai;ing. he found
bunch of well-trained athletes prepared
TO go through any kind Of drilling that
he should prescribe. These marines
came from all parts of the country
from many different schools universities
and colleges DicksOns big problem
therefore was to whip this heterogene-
Gus mass of pigsltn material into a
well-oiled eleven that would travel in
the same class with t. q best teams in
the land. This perpleXing problem
Dickson has virtually solved He has
weeded out the best and now has his
squad down to twenty-nine players.
who are ready for all comers and are
fairly gnawng at the leash to be
turned loose on an opposi2g band of
gridron doughboys.
II is necessary that the Marines have
q big squadron Of football fighters, be-
cause they have one Of the hardest
schedules OF any team in the country.
Lieutenant Mcnamara. who has charge
Of the arranging and staging of the
games, may have NlllanoVa for an op-
ponent tomorrow afternoon.
II this game is not played, the Marines
are anxious to have some other team in
order that they may not be without
fray too long before the Penn game at
Franklin Field a week from tomorrow.
Lieutenant Mcnamara also is trying TO
stage some mldweek contests. so that
all OF the football talent can be
thoroughly tried out as tirst-string rna-
terial before the heavy battles OF the
season are played.
Dickson has a heavy load to carry,
working with the men individually, hg-
uring out the plays and then putting
them into practice in way that VIII
defy defense Realizing what big job
this is. Jeff Dougherty, formerly one of
the star Nilanova forwards, has vol
unteered TO lend his services gratis to the
Marines to help with the line coaching.
! Already there has been marked im-
| provement in the play of the linesmen
! This was shown clearly in their recent
! game with the sailors from one of the
battleships at the navy yard which the
Marines won by two touchdoWns, The
men open up holes in good style and
| operate much better in making perfect
/ barrier on the defense Dougherty' S
work is greatly appreciated by the
Marines and the results prove that BY
Dickson showed excellent judgment in
accepting his offer to train the for
| wards.
Yesterday afternoon Dickson selt the
team through a long signal drill, per
fecting old plays and putting on few
new ones TO puzzle the next eleven that
meets the wearers of the forest green,
After the plays had been thoroughly
rehearsed the varsity has a setto with
the second eleven. This mix-up indi-
Gated that the team is rapidly finding
itself and that when the time comes for
them to catapult themselves against a
regular opponent. they will be able to
stroll down the field in the same ca
dence as their brother fighters who are
ripping toward the German goal

HANK GOWDY
STILL GRINS
Star Catcher Finds Fritz
Noisier and Meaner
Than Pitchers
WON'T FOLLOW RULES

Hero he came, swinging down the road
just back of tho lines with the same
old grin, He had been under fire, he
had been hard at it for some time past
in the big push, but the old grin and
the same old gangling gait were still
there.
War had been unable to change Lank
Hank Gowdy from the old Lank Hank
of baseball days. writes a khaki boy In
the Stars and Stripes.
This game over here Is all right"
said Hank. but for a steady job all the
rest of my life i guess I'll take baseball.
We are going to see this one through
to finish till the winning run goes
over in the ninth, but after that l don't
mind admitting I'll be ready to change
the gas mask for the catcher's mask
and to take my chance against Walter
Johnsons fast ones rather than one of
the fast ones from Fritz
AT that, Fritz hasn't got much more
speed than Walter has and no better
control. But he's noisier and meaner,
and | guess wen have to drive him from
the box, or help'in in doing It. Fritz won't
follow the rules and he wants to do his
own umpiring, but we've been landing
on him lately and he's about given up
hope for any lucky seventh. He had a
rally going, but he couldn't keep it up. -
Lank Hank looks just as he did in the
old days. His uniform isn't the same
color or shape and neither is the mask
he wears. but the change hasn't af-
fected that world-embracing grin nor
the CHEEKY call along the road.

though the fields were not large.
The 2:13 class trot resulted in a five

rest, won the 2:20 class pace race, after
dropping the opening heat to Husker

factor in this race.
The three-year- colt race resulted
in a fice-heat battle between the Get
tysburg entry Grace Hale and the Salem
filly Georgia Donna. Grace won the first
and second heats and looked like an
easy winner. A long break in the third
heat, gave Georgia the heat, and as
Grace Hale was becoming tired, the
Salem filly won the race, her first VIC
tory and she scored her maiden record
of 2:2lA. with apparent ease.
