POINT LOOKOUT, Nd, Sept.
s.-The coming two weeks are to
be strenuous ones for the so
Georgetown football candidates
encamped here, scrimmage being
scheduled for every afternoon,
predicated upon individual In
struction in the mornings on Of
fensive play.
With all signs of the stiffness
which handicapped the players
last week having disappeared, the
athletes are in condition now to
go forward in their training at
a pace calculated to bring them
around to proper expertness and
formidability for the stiff ten
game schedule which carries them
t hroug h successive Saturdays
starting with Mt. st. Mary's two
weeks from next Saturday and
carries them right through to the
Detroit game, November 90.
October 3, GeOrgetO wn-
plays LOyOIa at Chicago. On
October 10 It meets West Vir.-
ginia Wesleyan College at
Clark Griffith Stadium, this =
being the first home night
game Of the schedule and in
deed the first night football
game Washington ever will
have witnessed.
The following Saturday. Octo-
Der 18, finds the Blue and Gray
travelling to Baltimore for an
afternoon game at the Municipal
Stadium with Western Maryland
College, while another home night
game appears on the schedule tor
the ensuing Saturday, October -
it being the home coming game
with West Virginia University.
October 81, is the last day Of the
season Georgetown will be seen
at home, q nocturnal contest
against Michigan State College,
a newcomer to the Hilltop Sched-
ule, being on the program.
Boston, New York Philadelphia
and Detroit will be visited by
Georgetown on successive Satur-
days, Boston College, New York
University, Villanova and Detroit,
respectively, being the opponents.
As Georgetown swings into
its second week Of practice, Q
finer bead IL being drawn on
the capabilities Of the various
candidates, and despite the:
diScOuraging reports which
have gone forth As to the
prospects Of q good line, OBJ
servers i'm camp see o great
forward wall being developed
by Georgetown.
Graduate Manager Of Athletics
H. Gabriel Murphy, who has seen
the last three Georgetown Soot-
ball teams develop by easy stages
from fall to fall is authority for
the statement that Georgetown
will have as good, If not q better
line, than it had last season.
Murphy believes certain improve
mentS are apparent which win
stand the team in good stead. In
his opinoin the heft is there, the
intelligence is present, and most
| Of all the ambition to play foot
ball is outstanding.
1t Is plain to everyone that
Capt. Bill Morris is q center Of
the first water. He compares
well with Wynkoop, Of last sea-
sons eleven, and many have
called him q second GrigsbH
Everyone is enthusiastic about
the development of Danner and
KatalinaS, the FORMER q guard
and the latter q big tackle from
the coal regions Of Pennsylvania.
Dubofsky, too. is working into q
splendid guard and Sullivan Is
showing consistent advancement
as the other tackle.
While Coach Mills Is NO. =
where near ready to divide y
his players definitely into Z
three separate teams, q var.
Slty and two sets Of shock
troops, you may expect the
five mentioned above to give
battle for first string posi-
tiOns and If Leary doesn't
make an end position, rs well
as Brennan. then some of (
the others have got to make
giant strides.
Mills has three, good sets OF
backs with plenty Of kickers, but;
the team is not so profuse with
paSSerS. IS situation Is dis:
turbing coach. who doesn't
resort to kicking tactics nearly
as much as he does to passing.
Scalzi is o quick kicker, but the
Notre Dame system doesn't ad.
wise the use of this style Of
