SECRET PRACTICE

Exendine will hold secret practice for
his Hilltoppers all next week. What
ever formations he intends using at
Annapolis week from today will be

Today's workout will be long, as all
have been this week. The Blue and

eleven where ii appeared weak at De-
troit For one thing, Dan Ahearn

at tackle last week, may be tried at

Meanwhile Harry Sullivan and Bill

Detroiters Gentle, If
This Was Right

Up at Hilltop you can hear
many funny stories about that
game between Georgetown and
Detroit last week and one Of
the funniest deals with what
happened to Dutch Leighty,
the varsity left halfback.
Leighty was upset and four
Detroiters proceeded to climb
all over him. One had his knee
in Leighty's tummy. Another
was trying to twist an ear
from his noble dome. A third
was doing his very best to
bend his nose out Of shape and
the fourth was trying to help
his three pals.
Finally the referee came
over and, standing above the
bunch Of kicking, squirming
players, said to Leighty:
"Hey, you, come on, get up
and quit your fooling."
