the Georgetown gridiron. The next
few weeks may tell. Hagerty and
o'Neill will be seen in action for
the first time this season when
Georgetown encounters Drexel In
stitute Saturday. Drexel, not ham
pered by one-year and transfer
rules, is expected to have a team
that will give Georgetown worthy
opposition.
Hagerty is captain Of the team
and is admired by his teammates
alike for his fOtball prOWeSs and
splendid personal qualities. He
was captain of his school team i'm
Massachusetts,, and the mantle of
leadership he wears now with be-
coming ease.
Hagerty is shifty, quick.think-
ing halfback, of medium size, and a
brilliant broken field runner. Also
he is a. ball hawk in catching punts
and passes. Illness prevented him
from showing to best advantages
was able to take the field he showed
to mark him as a star for 1925.
O'Neill is natural athlete with
a penchant for football. a. crack
team was built around him at
BeIiefonte Academy, Pennsylvania.
He was triple threat at the Acad-
envy and is regarded as such on
the Hilltop. He was deadly accu-
rate in drop kicking at Bellefonte.
It Is said that he booted eighteen
consecutive extra points after
touchdowns.
This is tO'Neill's first year as a
full Pledged varsity player. He was
tried out in the Third Corps area
game last year, which was not
governed by the varsity rules and
Bncky ran eighty yards for a
winning touchdown.
Both Hagerty and O'Neill are
bright, earnest students and for this
fact the Blue and Gray followers
are thankful. Gene eastman, who
was to be counted on as first
class back this fall, has just been
debated ineligible for a
loss by scholastic deficiency.

Bob McGraw Holds
Out For Part OF
Cost Price

Bob McGraw, right-handed
pitcher, who was expected to
report to the Robins while they
were in Pittsburgh, failed to
show up and, it is possible that
he will not join the team this
year. McGraw's release was
purchased from the Minneapolis
club of the American Associa-
ton for $4,000, and, according
to reports, he will not join, Will
bert Robinson's staff of pitchers
until he gets part of the pur-
chase price.
McGraw's absence is not caus-
ing Robbie any worry. The
rotund manager, however, is
uneasy since Jack Fournier
made known his intentions OF
quitting the team atSthe end OF
the season.
