tentatively arranged by Manager J..
G. Causey. consists OF twelve games,
ten Of which will be played at

Southern Conference tournament at
Atlanta, and there is possibility
that two more games will be added
to the schedule.
Although the season will not open
until the return of the corps from
the Christmas furlough, Coaches
BATTERY and Clarkson are holding
practice daily with a squad that
will eventually be cut to forty-five.
About thirty men reported to the
initial Varsity practice. and sixty
freshmen also turned out.
Coach Raftery has the following
letter men on the varsity squad:
Captain Ed Ryder, Writ Faulkner.
Smitty Semans, Gene Ferguson,
Wyndham White, and Giles Miller.
Men from last years squad who are
showing up well include: J. White,
Caldwell, Harmeling, Attwell. NOEL,

Indications are. that Coach Clark

from which to choose freshman

Recently Tom Egan, who was
manager Of the football eleven q
few years back, sent telegraphic
protest to Georgetown, demanding
that a change be made in the
direction of athletics, more par
ticularly football. Egan, it is be-
bieved, is stirring up the many
alumni residing in and around
Philadelphia. He is also CORE
spending with alumni in various
widespread sections Of the coun-
try.
In his telegram Egan did not
mince words. He gave every evil
dence of having lost his temper.
His telegram might be called
"fiery," and then but half Of it
would be told.
It is unfortunate that this t.
uation should exist. Georgetown
has too long a record Of football
glory to sink back at this la1e
date into the ranks Of the also
rams. With, victories over George
Washington, a more than usually
weak Fordham team, and Tulsa,
on a par with a high school team,
the Hilltoppers can hardly look
back with pride upon the 1928
campaign.
The upset by the Quantico Ma
rines in 1922 shocked most fol-
lowers Of the Hilltoppers. There
fore the CONSERVATION of the
alumni may be imagined this year
as they read week after week of
the defeats by Princeton, the Ma
rines, Georgia Tech, Third Army
Corps, Boston College, and Buck
nell. The present explosion is
the result, and none, can tell yet
what will follow.

the first time In history the council

desires one Of the bigger teams Of

other first-class eleven win be

Poor Gene Criqui.

T OR the sentimentalists there
is cause for grief in the
misfortunes of Eugene Cri-
qui, soldier Of France. He has
been stripped of his ring honors
by the international Boxing Fed
Grafton, which controls the ring
game in Europe, or at least in
France.
Criqui was at Verdun. That
is enough honor for any man,
especially any Frenchman. He
was with those who did not let
the German Crown Prince and his
hordes pass the ancient fortress.
He lived to tell it, though today
he wears q false jaw, replacing
his own torn away by German
bullet.
Returning to the ring, Criqui
defeated all featherweights in
Europe and, coming to New York
stopped Johnny Kilbane, thereby
winning the worlds title. In
stead of lodging challengers and
gathering in the kale, Criqui al
most at once met Johnny Dundee
and took a terrible beating for
fifteen rounds, losing his title.
Then back to France went
Criqui to show his class in a
benefit show in aid of orphans
left by the Great War. He took
Carepntier's place and was ma
tional hero for a day. Criqui
passed up fully a million francs
by his sportsmanlike action in
facing Dundee and by his ap-
pearing in a charity bout on
October 6.
Now as a result of that bout
with Hebrans, Criqui's hands are
in such shape that he cannot de-
fend his European featherweight
title against the challenger, Mas
cart, and so the Federation rules
that, If Hebrans, the Belgian, de-
feats Mascart next Tuesday night
in Paris, he will be recognized
as the champion.
But Criqui was at Verdun,
which is a far, far greater honor
than given to most men.

EOONNIE MACK is alarming
folks with his daring expen-

Shibe Park. Here, at a single
major league meeting, the lanky
leader Of the Mackmen has pur-
chased, at modern prices, a hard
hitting outfielder and a smooth
fielding second sacker. What will
he do next?
Paul Strand, who made records
in 1922 and 1923 in the Pacific
Coast League, will be in center
field for the Mackmen next year,
and Max Bishop, considered by
many capable judges a better
player than his teammate, Joe
Boley, will be at second base.
