ARE BRIGHT
By GEORGE a. Simpson

Though Georgetown University
faces a hard football schedule,
there il an abundance of material
for great eleven to carry it
across the rocky grid road. The
loss of Claude Grigsby, center, and
Bob Eork. halfback, both mem
toned on several All-America selec-
lions. cannot be laughed off. Nor
,can.I ON little smile when reminded
that Otto Saur. Bucky O'Neil, Moose
Mosko, George McCabe and Phil
Mclean won't be with him this
fall--at least, not in q playing role.

Babe Connaughton To Georgetown?
Mention his name to Coach Little
and the lataer's face will imnle-

.'Tubba" Farrell, former Con-
xaga High boy, who will seek
the Varsity center berth at
Holy Cross this fan. admits
that Morris gave him his
toughest 30 minutes on the
greensward. That was when
GOnxaga and st. JOseph's
locked in combat In PhiIadeI-
pEia.
There's Driscoll, fullback from the
freshmen. He can splinter cement
lines. There's Johnny Bozek. Some
foolishly believe he's burnt out"
His recent operation may keep him
out of several games, but when he's
ripe for action, he'll give the OPP
position merry chase for the elu-
siya carrier. Bozek can swing his
hips, has change of pace and is
a deceptive runner.
Besides from the Freshmen are
also Scalzi, Leary, White, Feighan,
Montanus, Anselmo, Farran, and
McNally.
There's also a raft of shining
followers from the 1927 Varsity.
