Georgetown University chose
a particularly timely moment
to announce the retention Of
Louis A. Little as it's director
Of athletics for a second period
of five years, the cheering
proclamation coming at the
hour Of Georgetown's home
coming game with West Vir-
ginia as well as at an hour
when there have been whisper
ingS that Mr.. Little might go
elsewhere.
The powers which control
the athletic personnel at the
Hilltop have. in the opinion of
this newspaper, done wisely to
re-engage Little and it is a just
reward for his excellent work
on the heights above the Poto-
mac since 1924.
We are not saying that
Little could not be replaced, but
we are saying that no better
man could be brought here,
and any new hand would have
to start all over again, where
as the retention Of Lou means
that Georgetown's amazing leap
into the forefront of collegiate
sports can continue unabated
under an identical policy which
has functioned SO nicely in
recent years.
1t Is up to the alumni and
undergraduate body to give
Little as splendid support as
they have in the past and let
him know by every word and
gesture that his remaining at
the Hilltop is a popular step
and meets with their approval.
No single person can make a
football team. be he a coach or
a player. Tt is teamwork and
unstlnting support from every
quarter which makes for
achievement afield and only a
combination Of these will create
and sustain success. The Times
halls Georgetown and Lou Little
and believes it is reflecting the
voice OF Washington in wish
ing them both success.
Clark Griffith will celebrate
his Sixtieth birthday next
Wednesday and Col. Billy Smith
Is expected to put out an extra
ration of hot dogs and double
jointed peanuts in observation
of the occasion.
The thousands of admirers of
Bill Knox, the well-known
bowler, will be glad to learn he
is on the road to recovery,
Bill has been suffering from an
infection of the thumb of his
right hand-his bowling hand.
A quarter inch of the bone of
his thumb has been amputated,
and. as a result of the infection
that developed in the bone,
various other minor cuttings
of the hand were necessary.
Now the swelling has. gone
down and he has passed the
crisis.
1t may be several months
before Knox is able to toss a
sphere down the alleys, but he
says he is feeling better, and
with a surgeon in daily con-
Sultation he believes the worst
is over.

Watch McMains.

Watch McMains.
That's the tip drifting this way
from Baltimore In connection
with the Irvington- Mohawk foot
ball fracaS tomorrow afternoon
at 1880 o'clock at the Clark
Griffith Stadium. McMains, who
will pilot the Irvingtons, was
quarterback Of the Quantico Ma
Sines q number Of years before
going to Western Maryland
where he continued his success.
No youngster as football play
ers go, nor q stranger to District
football fans, he introduced him
self here seven years when the
Quantico Marines jolted q power
full Georgetown eleven, 9-6. The
HilltopperS, who later defeated
Bucknell and Lafayette and tied
Boston College, considered the
game a romp. Even AL Exendine,
the old Carlisle Indian warrior;
and then head coach at George
town, thought so highly OF the
Marines chances that he was at
Worcester, Mass. that afternoon
scouting Holy Cross whom the
Blue and Gray were to oppose
the following Saturday.
Much Of the credit for the
Marines great victory over
GEORGETOWN went to that mar
veIOuS ine-craSher, Frank
GeOttege, but McMainS
played an important role,
too. 1t was he who would
drag down the brilliant Jack
FIavin from behind after the
latter had wOrmed through
the entire Marine team ON .
double reverse field run.
McMains nailed Flavin on
the 11.yard strip, but the
GeOrgetOwners pushed across
for the touchdown in four
plays, only to blow the tying
point.
McMains is not the only head
liner who will be seen with the
Baltimorear1s against the Mo
hawks tomorrow. Jim Desmond,
from Loyola, and rated as one
OF the best college centers in the
East, will also oppose the Mo-
hawks. Other stars with Irving
ton are Crothers, of Maryland;
McRobie, Of Western Maryland,
and Pincure, Of Penn State.
Realizing the power and class
Of the Baltimoreans, Coach Craig
Wilton will use every available
regular tomorrow, as he expects
q close and hard-fought game.
The Mohawks are In tiptop shape
and hope they can keep their
string Of victories unbroken. The

Both sections used to turn out

two sectional rivals took place
at Fred Ricc'S Manhattan

MANY ENJOYS
EXPECTED TO
Be CHANGED
Hoover Thought To Be
Planning Recogni-
ton of Career Men
To Improve Service
By JAMES L. WEST
Associated Press Staff Writer.l


WASHINGTON, Jan. IA up -
Many shifts in the American dirlo-
matte corps during the Hoover adj
miniEtration are forecast by those
who profess 10 have an understand
ing of the general viewpoint Of the
next president or the conduct OF for
eign relations.
In the opinion OF some Of Mr.. Hoo
ver's friends. career men who have
shown more than the average ability
will be given recognition in the re-
alignment of the corps. Steps also
viii be taken TO encourage the
younger men who would make diplo-
mack their life work and TO make IL
possible for them to attain TO the
higher posts the personal cost Of
the maintenance OF which now on
s~titutss Z bar to most Of them.
There is little doubt that Latin
America will furnished the main
field for aspiring career men while
Herbert Hoover Is in the White
House. A cardinal point Of his for
eign policy will be the fostering Of
relations with the republics TO the
south and since his good will tour
it is evident that he regards this as
q trent line Of American diplomacy.
Frequent changes Of diplomatic
representatives in the southern re-
public are regarded generally as
undesirable by those who made the
historic southwark swing with the
president-elect. They are convinced
that il is essential to the fullest IN
~derstanding between the United
States and its sister republics that
men be sent 70 these countries who
can remain az n post not only long
enough to become thoroughly famil-
lar with the language and customs OF
the people, but far beyond that time
so that there will flow the benefits,
from the acquiring Of this knowledge.
Another thing which was soon
made evident 20 members OF the
good will mission was that the re-
curing interventions by the United
States into ravolution-torn republics
i'll Central America formde the basis
for Misunderstanding with other re-
publies and especially for rather eff
fective ti-Ameriean propaganda
spread By the nationals OF foreign
nations.
Pr~esldent-eleet Hoover has taken
occasion several times TO express
his own ardent hope that the neces-
sity for American armed %interyen-
ton in a sister republic may never
arise again. II is believed that some
~ the causes for such ~interventions
might be removed by American d.
piomscy made effective by repre-
~sentatives who have had the oppor-
tunity and the ability 10 build for
themselves solid places In the esteem
Of both the government and the
people Of these republics.
Many phases Of the whole problem
Of foreign relations have entered
into the conferences which Mr..
Hoover now Is holding in Wishing
ton for he by no means is devotinr
III lof his time "a legislative affairs
and political appointment. He has
talked with some Of the sblest men
in this field in tho country.
One diplomat ard another former
diplomat had been invited 10 see him
today. They were o. II. Hammond,
ambassador 10 Spain, and william
Miller Collier, former ambassador 10
Chile.
