In addition to eliminating the
Knickerbocker A. G. from the

SCARED Monawks increased their
strength against the time they will
meet the champion Mercury eleven
by making eligible one Ike Drey-
fuss for their backfield.
Dreyfuss started in the Mohawk
lineup. The former Alexandra
sandlot star then gave way to a
substitute and was hustled to Amer
lean league park where he Joined
the Georgetown A. G. in its losing
battle with Mercury.
The Indians proved their superior
ity over the Knickerbockers be-
yond the question of a doubt, scor-
ing two touchdowns and seventeen
first downs to the enemy's two. A
stanch defense when the Mohawka
got within striking distance kept
down the score. The Knicker-
bockers stopped their foe three
times within the 12-yard line in
the first quarter.
The MohaWkS were powerful on
the defense, too, as only once did
the visitors to Union Park get as
close to the Indian goal as 81 yards.
Lawrence Taylor, a star for the
Mohawks in 1922, played his first
game with the Indians yesterday.
He was sent in during the last
minutes, but during that time he
was a whiz bang. Seven times
Taylor carried the ball for gains
of seven to thirty yards. Dark.
ness halted the contest prematureIy

TIES FOR SUITS.

RECENTLY we discussed
~ shirts that would match
suit colorings and it may be
interesting to consider ties
that are suitable for certain
suits. 1t does not always fol-
low, but generally a tie is the
most noticeable feature Of a
mans outfit. A little thought
given to the selection of ties
to be worn with each suit
and a more careful buying Of
ties to meet requirements will
improve ones appearance ont
of all proportion to the ex-
penditure of time or money
involved. :.
One ventures. to say that
with dark suits light colored
ties are best, provided that
the tie is a combination of
colors one of which is of
the same dark intensity as
the suit. This dark color
need not necessarily be the
same shade or color as the
suit. Conversely, with light
suits, darker ties are prefer
able.
If the suit is a brown one,
Foulard ties with jacquard
figures look well, especially
if they are red or almost
anv tone of brown or tan.
A brown tie with a magenta
or purple shade in pattern is
effective and so are solid COL
ors or ties with a grey stripe.
But one should avoid light
green, pink or pale light reds,

DEVIL DOGS
NEXT
Victory Over Georgetown A. c.
Heightens Champs Hope
to Avenge Defeat.

Mercury, champion sandlot eleven,
began preparations today for con-
test at American League Park next
Sunday with the Quantico Marine
Reserves, firmly confident after
yesterdays 1S-to-7 victory over the
Georgetown A. G. that its revenge
on the Devil Dogs, who defeated
them, Z to 6, two weeks ago, VIII
be complete.
Mercury's performance against
Georgetown was similar to others
against Washington challengers for
Mercury's title. It was simply a
case of too much Mercury strength
on the offense and defense. George
town presented it's strongest lineup
Of the season, and fought hard.
A victory over the Quantico grid
ders would give them virtually a
clean slate, and in this state Mer-
curry hopes to meet their enemy of
enemies, the Mohawks, on Deem
Der 2.
Ike Dreyfuss, who starred for
Georgetown against the Mohawks,
was held in check most of the
time by Mercury. Once in a while
he got away for appreciate gains,
but Georgetown was never able to
make it dangerous for Mercury.
Two beautiful twenty-five-yard
forward passes gave Georgetown
its single touchdown in the final
period. Casbell threw both, one to
Mccarthy and the other to Gard
ner. Dreyfuss kicked the goal.
A fumbled punt by Dreyfuss vir-
tually gave Mercury one of it's
touchdowns. This was in the third
period. Crouch recovered the fun
BILE on Georgetown's 5-yard line,
from where 1t was easy to score.
Mercury pounded it's way to the
other two touchdowns, which were
well earned.

TACK HEGARTY, George
towns halfback, was the
- best individual player at
the Clark Griffith stadium last
Saturday. He was the fastest
man in uniform, so fast that he
made his supporting cast look
slower than they were, and they
were slow enough.
Not since Johnny Gilroy, and
before him Harry Costello, has
Georgetown possessed as clever a
halfback as this youngster from
Boston. Indeed, Gilroy's runs were
largely the result Of beautiful in
reference something the 1928
Hilltop team lacks. Costello's
runs were, too, without much in
reference.
Like Costello and Gilroy,
Hegarty has that knack of chang
ing speed. His run for a touch
down against Bucknell after
catching q punt was beautiful to
watch from the press stand. He
received some aid here and there,
but when he lacked it he changed
speed, stiff-armed a would-be
tackler and was on his way.
Georgetown is passing through
a woeful campaign this fall and
many grumbles are being heard
on that account. Tulsa Uni
versity, from faraway Oklahoma,
comes here next Saturday. Moth
ing much is known about the
visitors They. may be powerful
and swamp the Hilltoppers. They
may be green, poorly coached
and an easy victim. If George
town fails to win from Tulsa, it

while light blue is not at
tractive in this instance either.
For a grey suit ties should
be light, because grey is a
neutral color. Solid colors
are good here. Deep red, blue
or a darker grey than the
suit. If a blue shirt is worn
with grey it should be ac-
companied with a very light
colored tie. A bright striped
tie looks well with grey and,
incidentally, ties so patterned
seem to be becoming popular
again. Avoid purple or dark
brown but a brick red brown
is acceptable. Sand color is
not suitable as it looks too
washed out against grey.
