Boca Chica seems to be the place.
We hope they do not come back

the poor Junior and SophS are the
only ones who dc not get a class
day off. Perhaps that will inspire
them to become seniors.
The Juniors will give the Seniors
a banquet at Hotel Fl Jardin on
Tuesday night. After the banquet
there will be a dance.

LExANDRIA, September 20
~ The st. Mary's Celtics foot ball
~ stock took another upward
bound today when it was learn
ed that "Pepco" Barry, washington grid
star, would return to the Green and
Gold ranks for the impending campaign
as soon as he finishes out the pro-
fessional base ball season. He is play

Barry, a halfback, joined the team

LINE Of 196-POUND
AVERAGE POSSIBLE
PixIee Also Has Two Strong
Sets of BaCkS-GridderS
Return Tomorrow.

FO DOT BALL fans of George
r. Washington University are
i ready to welcome home
their 1880 eleven tomorrow.
LaSt-minute plans Of Director
of Athletics Jim Pixlee will keep
the squad in their training quar-
tiers at Camp Let's today, the
boys returning tomorrow morning
to register in their classes at the
university and take their first
workout on the Tidal Basin in the
afternoon.
It's a promising squad that Pixlee
brings home and one that should make
supporters of the Buff and Blue sit up
and take notice. Three full teams. with
two good backfields, are the most en-
couraging features, with a line averag-
ing 1913 pounds by no means the darkest
aspect.
Two Sets Of Backs.
At the end of the two weeks training.
Pixlee has found that he has two back
fields of almost equal ability--one con-
sisting of veterans and the other OF
promising youngsters. While the veteran
combination of Billy Wells, quarter; Lee
Carlin and Sammy Berkowitz, halves,
and OTIS Krimmelmeyer, full has been
idle due to minor injuries, Pixlee has
developed another group OF ball car
riers, three of them former linemen.
With Joe Carter, freshman halfback
last year, as the only one having any
experience behind the line, playing
quarter, Pixlee has made halfbacks out
Of Lyle SturteYant and Bugs" Bagrsn-
off, erstwhile end and guard, respec-.
lively, and a fullback out OF "Obie'
O'Brien, 240-pound tackle. Then, too.
there is "Blackie" Hoffman, varsity full
back last year, awaiting his turn. not
to mention Wallace Preston, Donald
Reardon and Amadeus Caruso.
All Linemen Are Big.
But it's nj the line that @. w. should
find most reason for rejoicing this year,
the forward wall having no member
weighing less than 1870 pounds, and all
as powerful as they are heavy. Even
with AL Vogt, end Of the freshmen
eleven last year, nursing bad ankle
and his brother Bill. another end, on
the shelf with a cracked rib, the line Is
promising.
Bob Galloway and Wayne Chambers
have taken the TANKS. Chambers
100 pounds OF heft Is oVerSnedoWed
only by Gallowsy's 1876. Zachary
Demas and Marich Hale, both 193-
Founders, are at the tackle berths, while
Wallace Wilson shows the way TO all
at a guard post with his 2l0 pounds.
Charley Chestnut is on the other side
of the center with 1913 pounds.
At present the center post is un-
settled, due to the presence of four
men seemingly of equal ability George
Johnston, the largest man on the squad
with $50 pounds, would seem the most
logical choice considering the rest of
his mates, but he is being closely pressed
by Lazlo Sommer. Max Brown and
Jimmy Mcqueen, the latter varsity
man last year.
Although these candidates seem to
have the inside track, there are plenty
of others eager for a chance on the
line, including Steele McGrew, end and
punter of last years team, and Harold
Jones, a member Of the freshmen squad
of 1929.
All in all, it is entirely different from
anything George Washington has had
in recent years.

HYATTSVILLE HIGH
BOOTERS AT WORK
Getting Ready to Defend County
Title-Finding Goslkeeper
Offers Problem.

EVANSVILLE Md, September 20
Stanleigh jenkins, Hysttsville High
School soccer coach, has started work
with the candidates for the eleven.
HyattSville will be defending its
Prince Georges County championship
won last year, in jenkins first season
as mentor.
jenkins biggest problem will be to
find capable goalkeeper to replace
Fred Watson, lost by graduation, and
plug several holes in the forward line
The backfleld outlook is rather bright
with five regulars of a campaign ago
returning.
Walter Armiger looms as a promising
aspirant to the goalie job, while Cole
man Headley and Alvin McChesney are
among those figured to make lively bids
for line posts. Curly Byrd, jr., and
Ernest Michselson also are looked upon
as likely line candidates. Four capable
linemen were lost in Douglas McChes-
ney, Frank Hawkins and Donnie and
Eddie Barto.
Regular backs again at hand include
George Downing Jimmy Dwiggins, Fred
Baird, fullbacks, and Warren Evans and
Elmer Mostow, halfbacks. Jack Fitzsin1-
mons, who saw considerable action at
halfback in 1929, is another good pros
pect.
Among others who are available.
but of whose ability little is known, are
Charley Dwiggins. Vincent Stevens,
Jack Sheriff, DeVoe Meade, willard
and Carleton Heyser.

~HICAGO, September 20.-West-
ern Conference foot ball coaches
y today took their first formal In
ventory Of the season, and most
Of them found at least a little some
thing to please them.
Purdue's defending champions used ur
three freshmen squads in scrimmage
and Coach Noble Kizer saw some flashy
ball carrying. Ed Risk reserve half
back last season, was the outstanding
figure and indicated he would give
Lewis Pope keen competition for right
halfback.
At Northwestern Coach Dick Han
ley's regulars ripped off n 33to-6 deci-
sion over the freshmen, with Capt. Hank
Bruder standing out at halfback. Han
ley liked the Wildcat attack, but decided
more blocking and tackling drills are
needed. Coach Thistlewaite wound uI
Wisconsin's first week of work with 6
three hour drill in blocking, which wa:
not so good, and tackling, which was
better. A powerful backfield is the
prospect, but the line provides big
problem.
stubborn opposition from the reserves
and Coach Crisler was anything but
pleased. However, several men who are
counted upon to add power have not yet
appeared, and another week Of practice
is expected to bring improvement in the
line Coach Sam Willaman changed his
mind about easy work, and the Ohio
State squad scrimmaged long and hard
Yves Fesler again was the sensational
performer.
Illinois had two stiff scrimmage ses-
sions as Zuppke continued his hunt fol
varsity material Injuries slowed uI
work, and Red owen, an end prospect
from South Bend, Ind, was lost for sew
eral days because Of wrenched leg
The whole Indiana squad got into scrim-
mage with the freshmen, the most no.
ticeable feature of which was weak
blocking by Pat Pages light weight
backs. However, the Hoosiers showed
more progress than they did at thi.
time year ago.
Michigan and Chicago also put il
long drills, which included little o
everything. Stage continued his search
for linemen, and several backf1eld can
didates were tried up in front.
Notre Dame has one of its bigges
freshmen squads, but it was not biz
enough to keep Knute Rocknes regu
lars and assistant regulars from SCORING

regard the sophomore as fine prospect.
He had shown to particular advantage
on the play that was to lay him out.
Mills has been disappointed by recent
scrimmages he says. The linemen
haven't been functioning as smoothly
as he had expected and the backs
haven't been taking out their men con-
