Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1931-09-26


foot ball this season is to
~ replace it's losses in the
backfieId. The Kendall
Green school has for this years
eleven practically its whole line of
1880, but it's backfield was wrecked
by graduation. The success or
failure of the team depends almost
entirely on how well Coach Teddy
Hughes is able to fill the shoes of
Zieske, Ringle, Hokansen and
Marshall.
Comparatively speaking, no other
eleven in this section has suffered as
great losses behind its line as Gallaudet
In Ringle the Kendall Green school
had back as good as wore the colors
of any other eleven, and it is very
doubtful that it will be able to find
any man to fill his place. If back is
found who can do as well on offense
as Ringle did in all the games he play
ed. then Coach Hughes may consider
himself lucky indeed. Such players
are not developed every day. HokanSen,
Marshall and Zieske did not measure
up to Ringle, but they took their parts
well and will be missed.
One lineman, Capt Bilbo Monaghan,
end, who is back holds about the same
relationship to the line that Ringle did
to the back field. Monaghan is an ex-
cepttonal performer. He Is veteran in
the position and not only Is fine de-
fensive player, but also Is brilliant in
receiving forward pass.
AS q matter of fact Gallaudet'S whole
1880 line is intact, except center.
Wurdemann, who held down the pivot
position for two years, left school last
Spring. His position has been taken by
Davis, second string guard in 1880.
Coach Hughes has not had his full
squad out as yet, but quota Of be-
tween 80 and 40 is expected.
CEORGETowN, George Washington
" and Maryland are opening their
schedules today on their home
fields. The Blue and Gray Is meeting
Lebanon Valley, the Colonials are
stacking up against Shenandoah, and
Maryland plays Washington College.
All three local teams are expected to
emerge with the long ends of the scores.
Catholic University opens its season
at Boston against Boston College. The
Brooklanders are up against a tough
proposition and, unless they play better
foot ball than they have any right to
expect, will meet defeat.
son today with South Dakota at Lin
coin The Cornhuskers did not meet
South Dakota last season, but probably
viii finish well ahead of their Northern
opponents. Nebraska is coached by
Dana Bible, who formerly coached at
Texas A. and NJ. Last Fall was his first
at Lincoln, but there Is not the least
doubt that he made good.
ONE game scheduled today that may
~ develop a lot Of good foot ball and
a close score is that at New Bruins
wick between Rutgers and Providence
College. Both these schools have heavy,
strong elevens and last year battled to
q l2-to-6 victory for Providence.
Rutgers is changing its coaching sys-
tenn this year, and the results of its
games viii be watched with a good
deal Of interest. Tasker, who formerly
coached at William and Mary, is in
charge.
Brown University opens its season to-
day with Colby College. The Bruins
should win without difficulty.
While practically all schools in the
North and South open their schedules
today, five big Eastern Universities are
sons until next week, october 3. Co
lumbia, Yale, Harvard, Princeton and
Pennsylvania have no games this after
noon. this probably being the first sea-
son in many in which at least one or
two of these five have not had contests
listed for the last Saturday in Septem-
Der. All get into action next week, with
Columbia playing Union, Yale meeting
Maine, Harvard facing Bates, Princeton
going against Amherst and Pennsyl-
vania against Swarthmore.
T ONE STAR DIETZ, coach Of the
- Haskell Indian School eleven, has
had colorful career on the grid
iron-about as colorful as any other
coach in the game. He was a brilliant
tackle at the old Carlisle Indian School
under Glen Warner and played in many
of the games when the Indians were
at the height of their foot ball glory.
He was assistant coach at Carlisle for
several years after his last playing year,
1911, and then moved out to Washing
ton State College to coach there during
1918, 1915 and 1917.
It was his team that in 1915 was
picked to play in the Tournament of
Roses game at Pasadena. and he beat
Brown by IL to 0. He coached the Mare
Island Marines in 1918, coached at Pur-
due in 1921, 1922 and 1928 and was
head coach at Wyoming in 1924, 1925
and 1926. He went to Stanford during
1927, again helping Warner. In 1929
he went to Haskell and won 8 out of
10 games and in 1880 won 9 out OF 10.
OF Dietz it was said by the late Knute
Rockne that 'in my opinion the three
Smartest foot ball coaches in the coun-
try are Glen Warner Of Stanford, Dick
Hanley of Northwestern and Lone Star
Dietz of Haskell, and Dietz is the
craftiest"
CTEVENS. who is playing halfback
~ position for the University Of Vir-
ginia, is none other than the chap
who held down job in Central Highs
backfield two years ago. He not only
is fast and clever in carrying the ball,
but he seems able to do lot of things
on the foot BALI field that the average
back cannot do. He knows what 1t is
all about on the defense and, generally
