IN GOOD OLD DAYS
By Joe Busch

Special to the Gateway
 <t<< In good old days when crimes were few
 Before the fanatic got his hold People knew nothing about home brew
 And poisoned liquor was never sold Temperate people were unmolest- ed
 When they wanted mug Of beer There was no chance of being ar rested
 Or shaken down by some rack eteerS Liquor was kept in licensed place
 Perhaps not perfect in every wHy A man could enter without dis grace
 Remain 8 gentleman if built that way. But this stuff we get now and how
 At three bucks pint or more Would cut the nuts off blow Or remove the whiskers from 3 boar. While working for a little i'm provement
 We feel sure things can't get worse To those responsible for this pre- dicament
 We dedicate the following verse. Fortunes by bootleggers grabbed and kept
 Were not made in broad day light But they, while the prohis slept, Were filling bottles in the night.

HOYAS
BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON


Georgetown might take the
short end Of its football game
with West Virginia tomorrow
afternoon in the Griffith Sta
dium, but the Hilltoppers promise
to make a real scrap of it. The
Blue and Gray players, aroused
by a series of defeats, are in a
dangerous mood.
Woe to West Virginia for the
Mountaineers must suffer, though
innocent Of wrong-doing to George
town. Yet, somebody must pay
for the stings Of previous de-
feats handed Georgetown.
This is not to be taken that
GEORGETOWN will win, but those
Hilltoppers are aroused. They've
heard rumors that the George
town team isn't there" this year.
Seek Vindicati0n
Those Georgetown boys want to
prove their class and will make
a mighty effort to vindicate them
selves by a victory over West
Virginia before the eyes Of alumni
gathered for the homecoming
day" game.
The Hilltoppers have gone
since october 10 without rejoicing
in victory. That day, they
smashed the unbeaten string Of
Western Maryland
Backfield Stars Available
An encouraging sign for
Georgetown is that Coach Tommy
Mills will have use Of some Of
his injured backfield aces, such
as Joe Alenty and Mack Stanley.
The former is a streaky runner,
while Stanley is a dependable and
accurate kicker. Bernie Donog-
hue, halfback, is another injured
player who will be available for
duty.
The West Virginia squad left
Morgantown, w. Va, in auto.
mobiles and was to reach here
this afternoon in time enough to
take a limbering up exercise at
the stadium.

DIXIE PIN SWEEP
ANNOUNCED
BY TIMES
BY GINO SINH

The Washington Times gives
the duckpin game another great
boost by sponsoring the Dixie
Sweepstakes, an open event of ma
tional scope, symbolic Of the duck
pin championship Of the South.
Sixty of the nations leading
small pin shooters will enter, and
there is a strong possibility that
the number may approximate one
hundred.
The event is modelled after the
U. S. Sweepstakes, staged at the
Lucky Strike last year and won
by Jack Whalen.
Rolled in One Day
It will be rolled all on one day,
Saturday, November %. The en-
try fee is $2S, and three different
sets of alleys will be used.
The morning block is listed for
Convention Hall, with the partici-
pants shifting to the Lucky Strike
for the afternoon round and fin
ishing up at the Arcadia at night.
These are the three most cen
tralized plants offering proper ia
cilities for an affair Of this size
and Importance. Several thou
sand spectators are expected at
each block.
It looms as one of the major
duckpin events Of the year, over
shadowed only by the u. s..
Sweepstakes and the National
duckpin championships.
Edmund F. Jewell, publisher
Of The Washington Times, is
honorary chairman Of the COM
mittee. George L. Isemann, Sec
retary of the National Duckpin
Bowling Congress, is executive
chairman. Arville L. Ebersole, w.
c. D. A. secretary: Tom Walker,
Maryland-Virginia Suburban AS
sociation secretary; John Blick,
the city's leading bowling alley
magnate, and Bill Wood, chief
tain of the Meyer Davis bowling
enterprises, are on the committee.

Not Too Fast or Slow

We have often wondered
what it takes to make a foot
ball official and have come to
the conclusion that most Of 'em
represent the type Of former
player who Is a little too
slowed-up to compete on the
field but isn't quite Slowed-up
enough to be q spectator. Any
way, Washington has a lot Of
eminently capable grid officials
and there Is seldom heard any
criticism of their work.
Now you take Jack Gass, he
was officiating local hig h
school games when the over
signed was a high private in
the rear rank Of Company G,
Business High School, away
back there in 1906 and 1907. My
friends, that wasn't last week,
but it seems to us that Jack
covers the ground about as
fast and as thoroughly here in
1881 as he did in those days
IS years ago. Anyway, why
bring up the matter Of age, eh,
Mr.. GaSS?
And speaking Of football Of.
ficials, like the baseball um-
pires, they are always right.
Even when they are wrong.
they are right, and if you don't
believe it, just try to get a foot
ball coach to protest an action
of a grid official. It's a part
Of the football code, and, like
the king, the football digni.
tary can do no wrong.
The Washington times., 1931-11-13
Much Indignation

A striking illustration of this
point was brought out in an in
cident which occurred on the
train bearing the Columbia
football team back to New York
from the Cornell game. An
aroused Columbia alumnus who
thought q penalty was unfair,
which had cost the Lions a
chance to score, approached
Lou Little on the train. It
must have been a faulty ruling,
for there was much indignation
by many, many Columbians.
Approaching Little, the ired
Columbian expoStulated at
length and with gestures, about
the rotten officiating, thinking
he was going to get q lot Of
sympathy from Little.
"Well. If you didn't see that
offense, I DID," Little glared
at the diseruntled alumnus.
This despite the fact the play
was down near the Cornell goal
line and across the field from
where Little was sitting on the
6O-yard line.
Many WaShingtonians had.
much fault to find with the Of
ficiating at the Georgetown
Bucknell game. There was one
play in particular involving a
pass when the Hoyas needed
only about three yards to get
q touchdown. Had the pass not
been Illegal, in the estimation
Of the officials, Georgetown
might have tied Bucknell.
But this week, Tommy Mills
told Harry Costello the officials
were absolutely right, and Mills
was sitting in exactly the same
position to judge the play that
Lou Little was to pass sentence
on the Cornell Columbia play.
Yea, the officials are always
right!
The Washington times., 1931-11-13

Although the Cardinals are to

rite, indications today we're that
