JOHNSON DROPS
WARNER

Jackie Warner, obtained from De-
troit in the deal sending Bucky
Harris to the Tigers as manager, has
been released by the Washington
Club to the Toledo Mudhens in part
payment for Pitcher Mccullough.
Warner is q third baseman
by trade and, when taken by the
Griffs, was supposed to be a
candidate for Ossie BIuege's
berth. However, Manager Walter
Johnson evidently believes
Bluege quite sufficient and, with
every club waving claim, the
former Tiger slides back to the
American Association.
President Griffith was pleased to-
day to lear that Massachusetts had
voted in favor of Sunday baseball
THAT means that no club will have

much detail, I'd say that Wash.

THOUGHT
By George A. Simpson

Were paying no attention
whatever to any offers for
post-season games, Z Lou Little,
coach, said today in connection
with the proposed st. Mary s.
Georgetown game in Oakland,
Calf, on December 8.
I'VE get these offers every year
and wire back that we are agree
able. Yet. when we begin bicker-
Ing over the terms, the games al.
ways fall through because the
guarantee hardly would pay ex-
penses.
And we couldn't go to the Coast
on December because OF two
things. The faculty wouldn't per-
nit the players to leave their
studies at such an early date and
then again it would be folly if we
should head for the Coast after
finishing a hard and gruelling
month with the Detroit University
game at Detroit, Mich, on Decem-
Der ].
why, that would be murder
I'm the second degree added
the Georgetown football boss.
s'DO yOu suppose that I would
ask my players 10 undertake
such q hardship when they are
ut present giving me their best
efforts? II we're going to the
Coast at all, IL won't be until
around Christmas or New Year.
Finally, we ara not giving any
heed to these offers. We're chiefly
concerned now about this Carnegie

All of which brings US no.
where, for if the dope means
as little in any sport as it does
in football. then we have yet
to discover that pastime.
So many things can happen
on the gridiron, as last Satur-
days set-to at Yankee Stadium
proves, that it is a good thing
to throw away the dope book
before going into stadium.
1t makes fine discussion before
a game, does this old dope, but
when the starting whistle
blows, it means little or moth
ing. Mud, fumbles, injuries,
complexes and breaks neutralize
all the dope in the world YOU
can dig up-provided the teams
are anything like evenly
matched to start with.
Early in the season Knute
Rockne picked Carnegie Tech as
the outstanding team of the
country, which is a big order
and which title they can't he
said to deserve until they have
whipped Georgetown. HAVING
an open date last Saturday, the
Pittsburgh team will enter the
game in better physical shape
than will Georgetown, but The
day of idleness may cost them
something in the way Of

the business at hand. Let us

However, there's no telling with
what manner the Central players

tion to defeat their adversaries, the
game may have a sorrowful and
tragic end for Hap" Hardelps s

Coach Rauber is uncertain as to
his starting lineup as he has been
trying out new faces for several
doubtful positions. He has also
changed his regulars about con-
siderably in an effort to develop a
combination that work in unison.
