OCEAN CITY, N. j., Sept.
1.-Two sets of brothers are
among the four dozen candi-
dates who are today trying
for permanent berths on the
1929 edition of the George
town football forces and in
that there is q position open
this fall in which each is pro-
ficient Washingtonians follow
ing Georgetown's s fortunes may
see the unusual spectacle Of
two members Of two families
carrying the banner OF the
Blue and Gray.
Jim Mooney, the 1928 regular
tackle and one Of the best kickers
in the East is considered practically
a certainty to be back at his old
job while his Brother Bill, q big
Irish bruIser from Chicago, is o
for an end position. The
graduation last June Of John
Tomaini the New Jersey thunder
bolt, leaves a vacancy at right end
and the blond bill is out on the field
today sweating to make the grade
and be in the same front line as
his Brother Jim.
The other brothers two who
are bidding for regular berths
are John BOZek, the GonZaga
high product who was somewhat
handicapped last season by the
effects Of an appendicitis opera
tion he underwent in mid sum-
mer and his younger hnsman
Emil. who is q graduate Of
Manchester High School, n. H.
Johnny Is expected this season
to fill the vacant shoes Of BIZ
Dwyer who also got his sheepsktn
last spring and meanwhile Emil, a
very promising prospect indeed ac+
cording to Lou Little's own words,
will be out for the quarterback jpb
vacated by Ralph DupIin one of the
headiest of signal callers it has been
GeOrgetown's fortune to have In
years and years and years.
Meanwhile the task of finding suit
able requirements for that sterling
Guard Captain Jerry Carroll is
causing Coach Little no little worry
as he goes into an intensive cam
paign of preliminary conditioning
with his squad of nearly so men
today.
Gene Driscoll, Of last seasons var.
sity eleven, is expected to make q
strong. bid for the place as are
George Brickman, coming up from
the freshmen team, say naught of
Bill Dubosky, who is also a sop1o-
more. Driscoll incidentally can play
either guard or end. And speaking
of ends besides Bill Mooney; already,
discussed. and this Driscoll. an EN-.
phatic bid for the right flank is to
be entered by Bob Geringer also.
II young Emil Bozek happens to
make the grade as quarterback it
will be only after successfully fight.
ing off that flashy little signal
caller and field general Joe Gardner
as we'll as Johnny Sea1zi and Ed
Leary, all three of whom were in
the fold last season, but who couldn't
shout out directions compared to
Duplin. An interesting angle Of this
seasons fight for places as reeu-
ars will center around the candidacy
of one Harold Meenan, a star for
ward of Georgetown's basketball
team who has come out for foot
ball.
Meenan was out a year ago last
spring for practice but owing to the
passing on of both his mother and
father within a. very short time he
had to drop out of school a wear.
Meenan weighs about $50 pounds
and Is quite in earnest about trans.
ferring his affections from hs sket-
ball to football IL indeed he dossr'+
play both games during the coming
college season. Sam Cordovano the
ferocious guard, looks better than he
has at any reporting to Georgetowp
camps. Sam pulled a Red Grange
last summer carrying ice I'D until
the very time he left home to report
here.
Training camp at Ocean City
Is anything but a vacation at the
seaside, according to the sched-
ule mapped out by Coach Little
today. At 7:30 a, M, which Is
$50 Washington time, the grid.
men will be pulled out of bed
by Trainer Harry Crowley and
half hour later they will have
prepared their toilet and an
peared at the breakfast table.
Nine o'clock will find them out
on the municipal field undergoins
their setting-up exercises. which are
followed by drills in the various
departments of play. At IL they
will be called to the showers and
the hour until luncheon may be
spent in any manner the athletes
| choose, mostly sprawled across their
beds resting up for the afternoon
grind. AS much as three hours OF
practice will be in order each after
noon ending at 4 o'clock and from
then until Z, when the supper gong
goes, they may rest some more,
write postcards to the home folks
! and prance the boardwalk If they
have enough ambition left to- dc
| that.
Supper over at o'clock, they
haye the rest of the, evening to
themselves until 10 o'clock, when
Crowley ,tucks them in bed for their
! well deserved rest. That will be
the daily menu here until September
IA, when stakes will be pulled for
home, that Is to say. that will be
