NOSE connected with foot
ball at George Washington
University believe they
have the best prospects in
the history Of the university for
q really successful season. Good
training quarters for preseason
workouts and a squad of such
proportions and caliber as to give
very evident cause for satiSfac-
ton are the main reasons for this
optimistic attitude. The caliber
of the squad is sufficient reason,
In all probability, If the other
were eliminated.
Not that the coaches are giving out
this opinion publicly, but they feel that
way, Just the same. In an effort to
get an expression from the George
prospects, that office was called this
morning and asked the pointblank
question:
what does Coach Pixlee think Of
his prospects,"
"oh, they're fine" came the answer.
''We've got q good squad and will have
q good team. We could hardly want
anything better"
could quote PiXlee to the effect?"
was the SeCOnu question:.
oh my no." was the quick response.
"Just quote him saying that he is well
satisfied with the training camp and
the conditions under which the squad
will get its early workouts"
Most Coaches the Same.
From which 1t may be understood
that the George Washington coaches
are optimistic about their outlook, but
do not care to be quoted to that effect.
In fact. few coaches do like to say pub
iicly that their prospects are overly
bright, as they may have too much
explaining to do later, and George
Washington's staff is not different from
others in that respect. However, the
feeling that the Colonials have a good
year ahead of them is too well rooted
not to show, and it takes only a casual
conversation with somebody familiar
with the situation to get that thought.
The George Washington squad left
this morning for its training quarters
near Annapolis. It is to use the Y. M.
C.. A. Summer camp, where conditions
are said to be excellent. The return
trip to Washington Is to take place
around September %.
George Washington plays some of the
hardest games 1t has ever had, and its
whole schedule may be accepted as
difiicult indeed. The season is to be
opened october 4 with Rutgers and
Navy. South Dakota and Tulsa are
about the hardest of the other games.
The list follows:
October Rutgers at New Bruins

October 11-Delaware at Newark.

The trip to Tulsa will be the longest

likely to be one of the toughest any

Captain. Blake said with a

What about the hall-boy?"
Dale set off on a different
track.
Some one on duty at all
hours. I've sent for the night
man. He ought to be here
soon."
Lets look over the windows"
A careful examination of
every window of the apartment
showed them all closed and
latched. Without exception
there was an ornamental iron
grill set outside each of the
windows. That much was set
tied.
The boy on the switchboard
was called in and questioned.
He was nervous and excited
and it was with difficulty that
Blake obtained intelligent and
understandable answers erom
him.
The important facts of his
testimony were these: No one
except himself had gone into
the apartment prior to the ar
rival of the police; at 8 o'clock
Zelma Shaw's chauffeur had
come in and asked the boy to
announce that the car was
waiting outside as she had
ordered the evening before; the
chauffeu rhad gone back to the
car while he had tried to con-
meet with her apartment; after
ringing for some time and get
ting no answer the boy had
gone to the door and knocked:
after pounding the door for
some time he became alarmed,
especially as he knew that two
people had been in the apart
ment all night; finally he had
forced the door and saw Oscar
yelling stretched out on the
floor and had run to the street
yelling for a policeman, know
ing there was one on traffic
duty at the next corner.
What time did you come
on duty?"
"Seben o'clock, boss. All,

thoughtfully.

After Jackson went back to
his station Robin Dale saunter
ed about the room. Something
on the table behind the lounge
attracted his attention. He
picked up a slip of paper and
read a few words written on it
and called Sergeant Jardin, as
Captain Blake was in the bou-
doir with Phelps.
