The Blue and Gray coach expressed
himself this morning as hoping they
would develop more rapidly, so that
by the time of the opening game, a
week from Saturday, his forwards
would measure up to the standard OF
the backs.
The Georgetown squad as whole
is in excellent shape, and everything
seems to point to one of the best
elevens in Georgetown foot ball his
tory. Any team that defeats George
town will have TO deliver about as
good goods in the way Of foot ball play
as can be found. Right now George
town stands out by far the best look
ing outfit anywhere around the Ma
tional Capital. And it is almost SUI
perfiuous to add that Georgetown sup
porters. as we'll as coaches, are eX-
ceedingly pleased.
Something of the immensely of the
new University of Pittsburgh stadium
may be known by consideration of
some statistics regarding it recently
given out by the university. The
stadium has seating capacity of TO-
900, and has arrangements to permit
of a double tier of seats, which ulti-
mately will give a seating capacity of
100000. The total cost of the struc-
ture is So 1000 The stadium COW
ers nine acres, has a length of 791
feet. a width of GIT feet, has 50 rows
of seats, and if all the seats were
stretched in straight line it would
reach Il miles. Two thousand and
two hundred tons of structural steel,
1000 tons of reinforcing steel and
10000 cubic yards of concrete were
used in erecting this plant.
One man who left the Army foot
ball team last year is going TO be about
as difficult to replace as any man who
was lost by any team. That man was
Garbisch. With far greater expe-
rience than the average player, hav-
ing been an all-America lineman at
Washington and Jefferson before en-
tering West Point, Garbisch knew
more foot ball than even the best of
college men to whom he was opposed.

The St. Louis course is an ideal test
and is reported to be in splendid con-
dition. The Women'S tournament, SO
cially at least, is considered the real
classic in golf each year.
This tournament will bring out the
best field that ever competed, includ-
ing Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd,
Glenna Collett, Mrs. II. d. .Sterrett.
Edith Cummings, Marion Holltns,
Maureen Orcutt and some so others.
Although no official announcement
has yet been made, it is practically
certain the United States Golf Associa-
tion executive committee will send
team of amateurs abroad next year
to compete in a series of international
matches and also in the British anna
teur championship.
The report is that the Walker cup
team next year will be limited to s
men instead of 10 players. as has been
the custom. Just who the players
will be, and who will captain the team
are questions that have developed much
debate. According to those in the
know, the selections for the 1926 team
! will be based largely on the results of
| the national championship, as well a
on the results of several other tourna-
ments of lesser Importance over the.
| past year These other tournaments
probably wuold include the Western.
the Metropolitan and the Lesley cup
| matches, as well as some Of the far.
western events.
Among those virtually certain of
being named for the 1926 team are
Bobby Jones, Jess Sweetser. Francis
Ouimet, Jess Guilford and George Won
Elm. Bobby Gardner, too. is likely to
make the trip. This leaves only two
or three vacancies, and it is quite ap-
parent the committee will have its
troubles naming the others from the
list of stars available that includes.
besides young Watts Gum and Roland
Mackenzie, Jimmy Johnston, Rudy
Knepper, Clarke Corkran, Dexter
Cummings. keefe Carter. Jimmy
Manion and Eddie Held. i.
William c. Fownes, jr., of Oakmont,
it is said. also will make the trip.
Fownes, who captained the team on
its first trip abroad several years ago,
probably will make the trip as the rep
resentative of the United States Golf
Association and not as a member of
the team. -r-
Fownes will confer with the royal
and ancient society on several golf
matters of considerable Importance,
| and it is likely some decision will be
reached at that meeting regarding
the change in the size and weight OF
| the golf ball.
