z BACKS LOST
FOR DETROIT
CONTEST
By GEORGE A. SIMPSON

DIV OGONOE tAs Sk1VAA 0OAN
Old man tough luck continues
to trail Head Coach Tommy
Mills and his Georgetown Univer-
sity football forces. Bernie Don.
oghue and Earl Trump, halfbacks,
have been lost for the Detroit U.
game Saturday afternoon at 2
o'clock in the Clark Griffith Sta
dium.
Donoghue, who has been the
victim of several injuries this sea-
son, suffered a nervous break
down and has turned in his uni
form. At one time or another this
season, Donoghue has been laid
up with sprained shoulder,
wrist and ankle as we'll as injured
instep and elbow. A fellow can
hardly come through all that with
a smile on his face.
Trump Called Home
On top of that, Trump has
been called to his Uniontown, Pa,
home owing to the serious illness
of his mother. Trump had not
been used much this year, but he
was being groomed for relief duty
in the Detroit game, which closes
the Georgetown football year.
Tommy Mills has been troubled
with backfield problems all year
and injuries have given him the
most annoyance. The line has
held up under the heavy schedule,
however.
The starting backfield against
Detroit will include Mickey Lione
at quarterback: Dick King and
Joe Alenty or Nick Viskovitch at
halfbackS and Johnny Shimmins
at fullback. Roy Bordeau, George
towns hard-plunging fullback. will
be pressed into service if the Hill
toppers hove within scoring range.
Little. Change in Line
The Georgetown line will find
Tommy Carolan and Roy Hudson
OF the wings, Ed Katalinas and
Joe Katalinas at tackles, Dick Dan
ner and Mush Dubofsky at guards.
and Charlie McManuS at center.
The only possible changes will be
Bo Richards or George Dyer at one
of the tackles instead of Joe Kata-
linas, and Big Fred Callahan or
Charley Bandzul at center instead
of McManus.
It is also possible that King, per-
haps the best field general on the
team, will direct the maneuvers
against the Titans. In this case.
the two starting halfbacks proba-
bly, will be Viskovitch and Alenty.
Paul Kennedy, 17-year-old sopho-
more, is also a likely starter at
quarterback, but his lack of ex-
perience may work against him.
A banner throng is the prospect
for the Detroit Georgetown con-
test, the only attraction here Sat
urday. Besides, local lovers of foot
ball will witness game that prom
ises to sparkle with thrills, Sensa-
tional runs. dazzling forward
passes, exceptional punting and a
battle between two stouthearted
lines.

Stove League Doubt

Mr.. G. M. Koockogey, 35 Ran
dolph Pl., in fact goes step
farther and comes out for a
football post-season Set-to in
volving not only Technical and
Gonzaga, but includes Western
as we'll. Writes Mr.. koocko-
gey:
"COnsidering the open fall
we have enjoyed and with win
ter not yet in sight, it does
seem that the high and prep
school season has been dud.
because the absence Of crisp
weather has kept many of the
teams from being up par.
"Tech, GonZaga and Western
are Stand-OutS, but they will
leave room for a stove league
argument lasting all winter if
they stop now. Tech and Con.
Zaga beat Western when several
good men were out, and Cop
zaga'S victory over Central was
clOuded by the same kind Of a
situation.
81 know the time is short,
but can't you try to cook up a
series including all three of
them-GoEZaga, Western and
Central? Let Gonzaga give
Western another chance with
the winner to meet Tech! This
would provide two games with
big money coming in for some
good cause.
''By the way, did you know
the high schools are not liable
for their injured players and
that expense for medical and
surgical treatment. when neceS-
sary. is up to the individual
victim? Some way ought to
be found to take care Of such
monetary outlay for the player,
anu If two ga"4eS could be ar
ranged as 1 have suggested, one
of them should be given over
to take care of the boys who
were injured"

Princeton Record Poor
Princeton will be closely
watched against Yale largely be-
cause the Tigers have one of the
worst records ever attained by a
major Eastern college. Should
Princeton win it would climax all
of the 1881 upsets.
The Tigers opened the season
by defeating Amherst q to 0, but
they since have failed to win

Cornell, Navy, Michigan, Lehlgh

A Lighter Team
North Dakota is more of a
power team than anything else.
There are several giants on the
squad, but the team which op-
posed George Washington today
was bit lighter, if anything, than
the Colonials.
Because they are big is no good
reason they are better, argues the
Nodak coach. and a number OF
comparatively light players have
won positions on the team away
from the big chaps.
The Colonials have developed
quite a bit of power themselves

and they propose to shoot the
works today. Viewing the game
from the standpoint of victory and
defeat such plan Of strategy
certainly sounded reasonable.

Golf Ball Changes

Golfers everywhere are re-
toicing over the official con-
demnation given the so-called
balloon ball by it's very parent,
the U. S. Golf Association,
which has announced new
specifications effective January
/. The complaints about the
larger, lighter-than-air ball have
been universal in so far as the
duffer is concerned, and their
cries have virtually stuffed the
pet ball down the very throats
of its originators.
In effect, the new ball will
remain the size of the balloon
ball, but will have the weight
of the old one. However. in
specifying that from January l.
1882, the ball shall be not less
than 1853 inches in diameter
and not greater in weight than
1852 ounces avoirdupois. the
u. S. G. A. hasn't been quite
specific enough.
The rule could be interpreted
so that a larger and lighter
ball than embraced in those
specifications. could be manu-
featured. and it would have
been far more efficacious if the
controlling body of golf had
stated exact specifications for
the ball and not given manufac-
turers this opportunity to make
aught except a fixed. weight
and size.
However, the dub, which,
after all. is your average golfer,
has been heard and right is
more likely to prevail as be-
tween the duffer and the pros.

the average course with the old
