TECH DEFEAT RECALLS
HUNTS FAMOUS KICK

When Jimmy Fugh. Techs captain.
failed to kick the goal after touch
down in the game against Central in
the Mount Pleasant stadium last Fri
day he probably lost the high school
foot ball championship for his team.
but in past seasons the Manual Train
ers have benefited by. the extra point
added when the ball sails over the
cross-har. In the early years of the
school, Tech had on the roster Of its
eleven Harry Hunt, punter, drop
kicker and place-kicker eXtraordi-
EnaIry,s ard his. carefsa ~bobffAg kept
victory away from Central for two
successive campaigns.
Hunt came to Tech from Western In
1903 and that season set record of
thirty five goals after touchdowns
without miss. as well as kicking'a a
number of goals from field by drop
kicks and placement The following
year, when Tech and Central clashed
for the championship: HHnt saved
the day for the Manual Trainers.
1t was bitterly fought game In
which the Centralites scored early. a
tumble paving the way for Logan
Cunningham to cross the goal. Later,
Tech counted, but its touchdown was
achieved across the end OF Centrafs S

| touchdown and running parallel with
| the side line.
! This made the try for goal diff
cult one, but Hunt was equal to the
occasion. With only a yard Of day
light visible between the posts, Hunt
/ set the ball carefully and sent it spin
ming cleanly across the bar between
the uprights. The kick tied the score
and the Centralites were unable to
break the deadlock.
| Quite a few boys made gridiror
regulations in those days. Bryan
Morse and Courty Church were per.

Harvard has in Owen a plunging
fullback of considerable speed, and
Buell. at quarter is little star, both
in handling his men and in drop
kicking. Brown at guard and Kane

Dartmouth has star in Robertson.
Stars In Middle West.
Michigan has Steketee. one of the
best halfbacks of the middle west,
and another good half in Kipke, now
rather out of shape through injuries.
Winconsin has a sterling middle of
theline man in 'Bunge and a trio of
hardhitting backs in Elliot, Williams
and Sundt. Aubrey Devine is Iowa's
star at quarter, but Slater in the line
is also a tower of strength. Ohio
State has pair Of guards equal to
any in the middle west at present in
Pixley and Trott, and N. Workman at
brother. Stuart is doing some fine
kicking.
Washington and Jefferson has
first-class tackle in Stein and one of
the best halfbacks in the country in
Erickson. Swarthmore has a good
halfback. in Asplundh. and Pennsyl-
vania has another in Miller, in addi-
ton to a strong back in Whitehall and
a new star in Hamer. West Virginia
has in George Hill a running back

Yale has a great tackle in Into, and

The Hilltoppers, handicapped by
poor weather. will have to work
overtime couple of days this week.
With the exception of Werts, center,
the squad came out of the George
Washington game in excellent con-
dition, but with several sturdy op-
ponents ahead, it cannot afford to
loaf to any extent. Werts has a
broken bone in his hand and prob
ably will be replaced by Des Lauries
in the Fordham conflict. Goggin, the
big tackle who has been nursing in
juries, may be ready this week.
Coach Robb Intends to drive the
Catholic University team at top speed
in drills this week, for it will face
no mean opponent in William and
Mary. The Indians have been going
along at a lively rate this season and
can be counted upon to give the
Brooklanders trouble aplenty. Robbs

1t has been found also that a team
needs more than ever complete
complement of attack and defense.
1t must have a line plunger as well
as speed man in the backfeld, and
at least two men must be capable
kickers and forward passers to de-
Nelop the aerial threat to its utmost.
Must Be Versatile.
= 1t is necessary also that one of the
backfield men be good at backing up
the line. even though the team mas
a rowing center to aid. 1t also has
been found essential that at least
two of the backfield men on defense
are able to diagnose quickly the di-
rection of a forward pass and be able
to reach the objective spot quickly.
1t will be seen from the above what
the qualifications are of star back
field man today
In the line almost as much develop
ment has taken place. The center
must be able to pass accurately ana
must handle a long ball back for his
punter. Many centers find it difficult
to get the ball back IL or IL yards
accurately. The work of the guards
and tackles has been increased
equally.
Even under such eNactinS condl-
tions, however, there are many stars.
Pennsylvania State has the sclntll-
lating star of the season in kililnger
at quarter and a great companion. in
Wilson. Centre has the same Bo
Mcmillan and real end in Roberts,
who has returned to that position.
The Navy showed in the Princeton

well great credit. Barchet. and after

only played we'll at tackle but show

Lafayette has a terror in the back
field in Gazella and a new star in
Elliott. At Pittsburgh Davies is his
old self and Hewett is u heavyweight
back already demonstrating the bene-
fit of another years experience. Cor

which kaw at halfback is star. At

THRONC TO SEE CHICAGO
AND OHIO STATE CLASH

CHICAGO, November with favor
able weather, local record for attend
ance is almost certain to be established
when Chicago and Ohio State foot ball
elevens clash on Stagg Field next Sat-
urday in contest considered the most
important thus far In the Western con-
ference season.
Twenty-Five thousand tickets to the
game already have been sold, and the
capacity of the field, including standing
room, is but little more than 100000
Every available inch Of space is being
filled with temporary seats. When the
first public ticket sale downtown began

Indications are that Chicago will send
into the Ohio game the same lineup
that trimmed Princeton. Most of the

At Galiaudet Coach Hughes is de-
voting much time toward the de-
.velopment of an offensive. So far
the team has been able to Withstand
fairly well the attacks of heavier
elevens, but has lacked finish in its
drive. All of the Kendall Green
cripples are rounding into form and
likely will be ready to start against
the Annapolis contingent.
Maryland will be unable to send its
regular combination against Yale, but
will have sturdy lineup neverthe-
less. Pollock, substituting for Bailey
at center, and Burger, holding the
place of Tackle Clark, have been
doing well at these positions. All Of
the remaining first-string men are in
good condition.
