OCTOBER : CLASH
WORRYING LITTLE
What Hoya Leader Believed
Choice MorSeI Proves
to Be Porcupine.

T on LITTLE. the Georgetown foo
ball tiger, thought he was In fol
choice morsel when the West.
IL ern Maryland eleven was booked
for game next Fall, but the
catch has turned out to be a peSky
porcupine.
The Hilltop scouts have given Little
the lowdown on Dick Harlow's squad al
Westminster and Lou plainly is an
noyed.
So are his charges. but for different
reason. Little fears q setback barely
has the season begun. His players don't
relish the still Spring practices that
appear tougher as Lou learns more
about the doings of Harlow and his
Green Terrors.
Western Maryland's team was COM
ing along rapidly last Fall. It was soft
pickingS for nobody, though 1t lost q
couple of games. Maryland University
struggled to the limit to beat the Ter
rors by Is to 6 and several of Harlow
best men didn't play. They were made
ineligible by Southern Conference rules,
to which the Terrapins adhere.
If only the Western Maryland veter-
ans were to be considered Little
wouldn't be worried so much. But up
from the freshman ranks have come
a number of lads who have all the
characteristics of foot ball players.
They promise TO round out formidable
combination,
! Georgetown will meet Western Mary
) land on october 5, a week following its
opening contest with Mount st. Mary's.
It will be recalled that Mount st.
Mary's gave the Hilltoppers scare two
years ago. The day was saved by two
touchdowns scored in hurry with for
ward passes.
Johnny Ringle, stocIy fellow from
the corn fields of Kansas, likely will
succeed Happy Byouk as Gallaudet' S
iron man in track and field. Byouk will
be graduated this term. Ringle, soph-
onore, scored 2412 points to lead the
field in the annual interclass meet and
his closest rival was Byouk, who got
10. Ringle won the 220-yard and quar-
ter-mile races and triumphed In the
shotput, besides placing in other events
Johnny showed lots Of promise last
Winter as basket ball player. He vas
awkward at first, but quickly wore off
the rough edges and toward the finish
was 3 capable guard and worth while
basket shooter. Also he starred in the
backfield Of Gallaudet's grid team.
North Carolina State advanced to
second place in the Tri-State League
Of the Southern Conference by defeat
ing Maryland, IL to 5. The Terrapins
were bent upon finishing as runnerS-up,
but have only an outside chance now
with three victories against four defeats.
University of North Carolina has
sewed up the pennant with eight
straight wins.
Phipps and De Marco, Maryland
pitchers, were hammered. Hess, who
toiled the last two frames, was an i'm
provement. Averette, the visiting twill
er, socked a homer with two on, feat
duplicated by Radice of Maryland.
After calling on four tennis meets
because Of foul weather or wet courts
Catholic University's racketers finally
got started and probably to their re-
greet. They lost by to 0 to North Caro-
Ina, which holds . decision over
Georgetown'S strong team. TIE Tar
heels won three matches from the Car
dinals without losing game and in
the other tits were not pressed.
Julie Radice bettered his chance of
winning the batting championship of
the Tri-State League by getting two
hits In three times upa against North
Carolina State. The former Eastern
High star has an average Of better than
500.
Charley Malone, tiny outfelder, APP
pears to have earned a regular place In
Georgetowns lineup. Coach ONeil
