In Dick Wingate, Sam Wasserman and
Dengler, Grier has a strong outf1eld, and
the pitching staff, comprising Lefty
levitt, Rhodes and Simpson, shapes up
well. And in Joe Tucci, Buck has any
thing. Position means nothing to Joe,
although he catches most Of the time.
Dick Wingate has Just returned from
the Rock Island Club of the Million
Dollar League. With the major league
cast-offs coming back to that club, Dick
decided he would benefit more by regu-
lar work with the Red Birds than Sit
ting on the bench with Rock Island.
The enterprising Grier may attempt
to obtain the Grifith Stadium when
the Nationals leave on their Western

promises TO card some Of the strongest

Two mental lapses on the part Of
Earl Baker Of the Takoma Tigers played

plays first base, pulled two boners that

Georgetowns outlook for next season is
more uncertain than 1t would be ordi-
narily. A victorious campaign will de-
pend largely upon how quickly the
squad can become used to the new
style.
Mills is confident the Blue and Gray
will show to advantage, but to quote
him: We're not expecting to set the
world afire this year"
Nearly all the Spring work has been
devoted to practice in Notre Dame
fundamentals. There has been little
scrimmaging, and to some who have
watched the boys in their workouts this
has been surprising. At Notre Dame
most of the scrimmaging Is done In the
Spring and Fall work is confined to
polishing up on plays. This program
will be followed at Georgetown after
Mills and his STAFF have laid q
foundation.
Mills is looking beyond next season
and perhaps the next several. His
attitude is that Of o man who is dead
sure success will come in good time.
He has utmost faith In the Notre Dame
system and his ability to teach It and
feels that Georgetown will present a
high average Of material.
The Real Rah Rah Stuff.
dlS nearC Is set upon giving the
Nations Capital an annual big time
foot ball attraction that will be pecu-
liarly its own. This, as Mills sees 1t, is
the one great need Of the sport here.
For years Georgetown has been rep
resented by strong teams. Several In
recent campaigns have placed high In
the national esteem.
The Hilltoppers have brought to
Washington number Of first-class
teams and games have been played
second to few in the brand Of foot
ball offered, but none has created more
than q mild stir In the city's con-
seriousness.
Mills visions q gridiron battle that
will so stir up the play spirit Of this
great big village that tin bubble over
and md expression In downtown
parades and rallies and brass bands
footing the refrains of the rival col
leges with students, alumni and
partisans generally joining In q merry
And Georgetown's opponent for this
game, Mills believes, must be found In
Washington or its immediate vicinity.

Buck Grier's Northern A. G. Is
this year, If its performances. in the
first three games mean anything. Grier

Mount Rainier in Q practice tilt some
thing like 20 to I, the Red Birds easily
defeated the Dixie Pigs in their season
opener, and yesterday pounded out 81
hits to annihilate the Hume Spring
nine, IS to !.
Grier's main problem appears to be
holding his club together. Minor
leagues, casting about for promising
recruits, are enough to worry any man
ager with Bucks aggregation Of stars.
The Northerns are making no bones
about the fact that they intend to an
mex the unlimited title this year, and If
they continue at their present pace they
will be in fair way to realize the am
bition.

The charge was made, Mills de-
MED it and there appeared to be
an end of the matter, except that
Mills demanded proof or retrac-
ton, neither Of which has been
Forthcoming.
After an hours chat, during which
many things were discussed, the report
er left the Mills coy home on Rodman
street, which is miles out Wisconsin
avenue, mulling several thoughts, among
them that Tom Mills would relish an
opportunity to lay his strong, thick
hands on the guy who accused him OF
being unethical and that he would
never rest until every skeptic was con-
WINGED the charge was groundless; that
he Is q man of exceptional force and
q follow through, intensely honest, with
Q fertile imagination and blessed with
bounteous physical energy for man
Of middle age.
That's saying q lot in one breath,
but add to it that Tom Mills above all
else Is just plain human. Although
he's been In Washington only q short
one hears much about him that Is COM
mandatory.
A Tedious Job.
This week the Georgetown squad Of

training under the new director. The
Hoyas have been called upon TO 'un-
learn" the ways Of doing things that
with some had become second nature
and at the same time learn to do them
In the Notre Dame manner.
Unless one has played or studied foot
ball he Is likely to underestimate the
task thus set for coach and player.
Suff1ce to say that to the player it's
quite like learning over ones business
after switch to unorthodox methods.
In this connection 1t will be remem-
bered that Mills predecessor, Lou
Little, whose teams were markedly sue
cessful, tried with scant If any success
to put over q "shufie shift" In one
season. After q few games last Fail
the half-perfected shift, on which much
effort was expended In Spring and early

Perhaps no nation has ever acted
so drastically to strike at low labor
standards in other lands. 1t is an
action carrying forward the concept
of human freedom laid down in the
famous seaman's act.
The free workers of all lands will
be helped by this drastic prohibition
against the products of convict labor.
But this is only beginning. In
January a year hence American law
will bar from entry the products of
any kind of involuntary labor. THAT
will cut far and wide, bringing con-
sternation to some of our most pious
millionaires and some of our most
ponderously pretending idealists.
With all of the greed of which ii
is accused, every now and then the

strikes such a terrific and dramatic

race as to leave an indelible mark
