Behind the line Du Four, the husky
uua rterback. the one new player.
King, at right end, was with the
team last year. Florence, much big
ger than last year. Is practically u
veteran.
The Georgetown backfield quartet
Is beautifully even in weight and
height, Flavin Is taller than the
others, but all four are almost the
same poundage. The backfield aver
ages 173 pounds. with Du Four and
Kenyon weighing 174 pounds, Nc
Quade, 176 and Jack Flavin. 172.
Licarione In Game.
Josh Licarione. for years the most
powerful individual player in Wash
tngton's sandlot circles. is starting at
fullback for George Washington. He
is much bigger than any of his mates
behind the Buff and Blue line. his
1s5 pounds giving him twenty pounds
advantage over both Manson and
Crouch and thirty.five over Captain
Springston. the agile little quarter
barl The Hatchetites' quartet av-
erages but 166 pounds.
There is a nine e-pound difference be-
tween the two sets of forwards IN
favor of the Hilltoppers, Georgetown
averaging 1S9 pounds. Paul Florence,
at left end. tips the beam at 1913
pounds, while Rudy Comstock. the
veteran guard, weighs 204 pounds.
"'he scrap between the lines from
tackle to tackle should be worth
watching. The Buff and Blue lads
are by no means weaklings. Hughes,
at center. played with Bethany last
fall. and is practically the same size
as his opponent, Carl Werts. The
tackles are about evenly matched, hut
the guards are a bit uneven in pound
age.
FIavin Should Shine.
Jack Flavin. the Georgetown CAP
tain. should shine today in punting.
Even "Untz" Brewer, Marylands cap.
tain, has nothing on him when II
comes to booting the leather. He
frequently sends the ball for seventy
yards through the air. with plenty
of height that permits his ends 20
cover.
Just what sort of a game George
town plays will depend largely upon
what Is demanded. Undoubtedly some
thing will be kept under cover 'or
scouts from both Fordham and
Georgia Tech are expected to be IN
the stand to get points on their style.
Very likely a strong running game,
varied with punts, will be the Blue and
Gray attack.
II the Buff and Blue collapses under
the attack. II Is probable that many |
second string players will be rushed |
into the Georgetown lineup. Injuries |
to Zazzali. O'Connell and Formoso
leaves the Hilltoppers rather shy of |
players for the wings, but every other |
position is we'll covered.
Who May Perform.
Quinn and Mennehan may perform !
Mt end some time during today's affray. |
Sheehan, Tom Mcnamara and Thomp-
son are available for the tackles, with |
Lieb and Kimball for guards. Des
Laurfers, sure to be a regular before |
he quits college, will relieve Werts In |
the middle Of the line, with Jim Nc
Namara ready to take his turn at
passing the ball.
Behind the line Georgetown has any
number of excellent substitutes. Leary,
Lowe, Livers and Malley lead the
extra lads who will be yearning for
the word to hop in as backs. MARITIME
Is the second string quarterback and
doubtless will get into at least part of
the game.
Today's conest is not yet the princi-
pal clash for either eleven engaged.
George Washington, as befits a young
ster. is pointing its team for the
Catholic University game at Brook.
land on November "a. Georgetown
must face the powerful Fordham
eleven here next Saturday and then
follow up that with a jaunt to Atlanta
for game with Georgia Tech on
IL and a hop to Boston a
week later for the annual game with
Frank Cavanaugh's Boston college
team. However, as George Washing
ton plays football from year to year, II
Is bound to rise to equal rank with
Georgetown and then their annual
games may easily replace in interest
those old Virginia battles
at the Hilltop.
