GEORGETOWN'S
PLAYERS ALL
READY TO GO
Hilltop Athletes Expect to Give
Lafayette Hot Battle in Sat-
urday's Game.

~ GEORGETOWN arrived home
VT yesterday morning after a
whirlwind contest with Boston
College that ended in scoreless
tie Every man used came out of
the game without injury, and
present indications are that Head
Coach Exendine will have the full
strength of the squad on which to
draw for the great game with La
fayette here Saturday.
The squad starts work again to-
day loaded with confidence. The
Boston game showed that Exendine
after severe mid-season reverses,
has whipped a great machine into
shape-one well able to meet La
fayette on even terms. Georgetown
has come back absolutely-and a
better. gamer team, according to
the Hilltop dope.
While the figures show only a
tie at Boston. there is plenty of
room for the opinion that the Hill.
toppers far outplayed their rivals
from the Hub. The end Of the game
found the Blue and Gray on Bos.
tons one-yard line with four
downs to make the distance.
On the other hand. the breaks Of
the game gave Boston two easy
chances for a touchdown. But in
each case the Hilltoppers' forwards
held like stonewall Again Bos
ton was in position three times
for A dropkick. but on each occa.
sion the Hilltop forwards crashed
through and hurried the kicker TO
the point where his boots were ab.
surd. Not even one passed over
the goal line.
Carl Werts. at center. faced Jack
Heaphy. the vaunted rush of the
Eagles. The Hilltopper not only
checked his man, hut outplayed him
in brilliant spectacular fashion.
'Zube' Sullivan roamed at will
through the Boston line. frequently
spilling his man for loss.
In taking on Lafayette. George
town will meet team whose style
of play is largely similar to its own.
Both EXendine and Jock" Suther-
land, the Lafayette coach. are for.
mer assistants of Glen Warner,
and both instruct their teams in the
well known sweeping attack made
famous by Warner.
Lafayette is strong in criss-cross
plays, but this play is employed so
much by the Hilltoppers themselves
that ii is not expected 10 cause
them much trouble.
The big job will lie i'm denting the
Lafayette line which heretofore has
proved largely impregnable. But
with the Blue and Gray backfleld
running smoothly. as it has been
in the last two games, it does not
seem possible that il will not be
able to contribute gain when needed.

But suppose we submit the rival

other years such fine golfers as
Evans. Travers and Heron had fail.
ed on this quest.
:. Won the amateur championship
of Massachusetts.

and Oufmet, but falling before

ISN'T MUCH CHOICE.
There, of course. isn't very much
to choose here. The fact that Ouimet,
an eX-open and eX-amateur cham
pion tsomething always to be con-
sidered where other details are fairly
even), lost only one tournament
match all year seemed to give him a
slight edge.
Golf is a game where almost any
man may be beaten at almost any
time, and one defeat out of so many
hard matches seemed to us an eX-
tremely fine showing
II the ranking is to he based upon
the amateur championship alone
there will be neither work nor worry
for any one. But while that is an
important feature of any ranking
II can hardly he used alone as a
basis for computation. Even as it
is, We are quite willing to admit
that the claims advanced in behlf

all goes hack to Z matter of opinion.
If IL seems to others that knep-
per was entitled to greater credit

tiers, in view Of the fact that both

while Evans was above 800.
Evans won the Western and
Jones won the Southern. Both won

won.
