GEORGETOWN AFTER
GAME WITH CENTRE
Praying Colonels Are Invited
to the Capital for De-
cember 8.

Special Dispatch 10 THE NEW YORK BEzALe
WAsHINdroN, Oct. 2s.-The George
town football management has for
warded Centre College an invitation for
a game in the capital on December .
The weather In Washington in December
is generally favorable for the gridiron
sport and the Hilltop authorities feel
safe in booking an attraction so late IN
the season. On the preceding Satur-
day. Lafayette viii be Georgetown's op-
ponent here in a contest that will un-
doubtedly prove the stiffest OF the year
The Hilltoppers count on coming into
December with an unblemished schedule
despite the fact that such opponents as
Georgia Tech, Boston College, Bucknell
and Holy Cross are to be met.
Al Exendine spent the week ironing
out the many faults evident in the Ford
ham game. On that occasion, the Hill
toppers cinched the game in the first
period, then appeared TO ease through
the remainder OF the playing time. The
combination was way below par. but tho
coaching staff Is glad that the team
happened TO have its ''off day" at time
when it could afford It. From now on,
the Blue and Gray viii have to play
smooth football In order 10 win.
The most important change of the
week Is the removal OF Ted Butler from
right tackle to right end. Although a
valuable tackle, the Hilltoppers are well
fortified in this position and it was de-
cided to move Butler out TO tho flank
Although one of the biggest men Oh the
squad, he is exceptionally fast. In the
Fordham game his deadly tackling in
the open field proved feature. King,
who started the season at right end.

cinnati game because Of a severely
sprained knee.
Georgetown followers are elated over
the recognition given by metropolitan
critics to Florence. left end. and Flavln
and Kenyon, backs. Florence is be-
lieved in this section TO be one of the
greatest flank men who have worn q
Georgetown jersey in ten years. In the
Fordham game ne was thrown five for
ward passes and succeeded in complet-
ing each for substantial gains. Then.
on defense. he accounted singly for two
thirds OF the tackles made. Weighing
about 200 and over six feet in height.
he is proving the greatest single factor
in Georgetown's success this season.
Kenyon and Flavin are playing their
last season at the Hilltop and each is
rounding out his athletic career in brill
liant fashion. Flavin's punting is aver
aging sixty yards, while his forward
passing is perfect. Every game he has
played has seen him hanging on 10 the
pigskin, despite the opposition forwards
until his receiver is ready for the heave
then he shoots the ball with uncanny
accuracy. Kenyon is proving most ef-
fectivc in line plunging. his compact
build making him a difficult man tc

The remainder OF the half was played
in Harvard's end of the field. but Dart
mouth had no show for score.
Tho defense on both sides at the open
ing OF the third period was impressive.
Neither team could gain more than Ave
yards in three rushes and both were COM
PEELED to kick. Even the mighty Owen
was not strong enough 10 tear off more
than four yards at a rush.
First downs were infreuuent, Har-
ward scoring two in the third period

lost the ball on downs on Dartmouth's

wholly on Dartmouths s side OF the

Then came an exchange OF punts

Dartmouth got the ball on her 40

London. Oct "a.
The eternal question of how far a
golf ball can be driven has again been
raised by the feat of Roger Wethered
on Tuesday while playing a mixed fore
some at worplesdon. At the fifth hole.
with a bunker 26o yards from the tee,
Wethered's ball cleared the top and
carried at least forty yards beyond-a
clean sweep of 800 yards.
Though the wind was with the shot,
H. was uphill. The very length OF the
shot cost the team a hole. for Joyce
Wethered thought she would have TO
use a simple masfie shot to reach the
green at the 405 yard hole in 2, while
the opponents would have 70 play 1t in
4. Apparently she did not believe her
brothers shot had gone so far. and by
mistake hit the wrong ball and lost the
hole. The Wethereds proved themselves
invincible. however. not only winning
that but the other round of the day by
margins OF seven holes.
