Tech to obtain some other attrac.
tion.
Football is picking up in the
capital, and, with American League
Park able to accommodate as many
as $4,000 spectators. Georgia Tech
might like to show its wares here,
either against Georgetown or the
Navy. Indeed, 1t may be said now
that the Golden Tornado is con-
sidering such a proposition.
Some 5000 saw Tech defeat
Georgetown last year. It is fair to
assume that 10000 or more would
gladly pay money to look at Tech
do the same thing at American
League Park. The business side
OF our great collegiate game cannot
be overlooked and won't be.
Georgetown, from all accounts,
played sloppy football against Ford
ham, winning largely because GER
tain blue-jerseyed lads were alert
to take advantage Of the Maroon's
errors. That Is part OF the
game. but that fumbling on Ford
hams side was matched by more
fumblinG by Georgetown and 1t
must be eradicated II the Hilltop
pers are to expect victory against
Tech.
Next Saturday Georgetown will
meet the heavy Quanitco Marines
at American League park. Even
with some regulars not playing,
the college team should win by
whatever score II wishes. The game
will prepare the Hilltoppers for the
big game a week later against
Holy Cross.
Holy Cross is not playing the
