The most colorful background
ever surrounding q Presidents
Cup football game Is promised
tomorrow. When Tom Keady's
All Marines line up against a
vaunted United States Coast
Guard eleven at American League
Park. 3 o'clock, the service
units themselves will be well rep
resented In the stands and on
the sidelines.
Over 1,20O Devildogs, it has
been announced, are to accom-.
pany their favorites here and
win undoubtedly add nightly to
the spirit OF this game, which Is
being played q sa benefit for the
unemployed.
A healthy advance sale
antimates that the largest
turnout i'm the history Of this
event may be expected. In
Cluded among the spectators
win be President and Mrs.
Hoover, Cabinet officers, Con.
gressmen, Senators, dignitaries
and officials of all branches
Of military service.
Choice reservations for this
spectacle are obtainable through
MFR. Adams, room 5O7, District
Building. The prices scale one,
three end five dollars.
Supplementary features prior
to game time and between halves
will find the rival factions Striv-
ing to outdo one another. Lively
musical strains. picturesque drills
and every conceivable form Of
entertainment viii be helped
along by the giant voice ampi.
fiers, which win broadcast a pro
gram Of their own.
The GuardSmen, who arrived
here and quartered at the Ham
iltOn Hotel, last night, were ac-
companied by local boy, Max
Schwartz, who may be in tomor-
rows starting lineup. Max once
represented Business High School
in all athletics and now plays
. halfback for the Guards.
A recent siege of illness,
Il has been learned, may
force Ed Libby, all-arOund ball
running flash, from the
Coast Guards lineup. In
this event there is a chance
that the former Southwest
fayOrite, Schwartz, viii get
the opportunity he so much
desires.
Tom Edwards, injured until re-
Gently, has returned to full
back and viii endeavor to
match his performance Of two
years ago when he, along with
Tom Hamilton, figured conspicu-
ously In the Naval Stations
unexpected .trium p h over the
Leathernecks in cup competition.
The GuardSnen, h a d ed by
Coaches Baker and G. A. A. An
derSon, radiated confidence today.
They smiled broadly and said
little when asked what they
thought Of their chances to reg
lister. But, it was not difficult
to gather, the New London
Conn, contingent is loaded with
q determination and fire that
can hardly be overlooked.
The Marines, 80 players
strong and headed by Coach
Tom Ready, were to show up
here at noon today. They
will head Immediately for the
Lee House, where they are
to be anchored during their
stay here.
While by no means overconfi-
dent, the GyreneS have so impress
ed In recent workouts that even
their most conservative followers
are willing to lay slight odds on
the. games outcome.
The Devildogs have boasted an
exceptionally rugged line this
season. That they are fortunate
in having a stout defense is em.
phasiZed more clearly when it isI
noted that the Guards boast one
Of the most versatile and powerful
backfields that has yet shown in
Cup warfare.
Each eleven win play one Of
ficer. Lieutenant Roland,
brainy Coast Guard quarter
back may travel the distance
for the New EngIanders while
O,Neill and Bauer, both ter
rifle drivers, likely will be al
ternated by the Marines.
As q sidelight to the contest
picturesque maScots are to be fea.
tured. The second Sergeant Jiggs,
presented to the Leathernecks by
Gene Tunney three years ago, will
fix his none too friendly eyes upon
q full fledged brown bear, official
chaperone of the invading Coast
Guards.
