~OACHES of local college foot
ball teams are we'll satisfied
with the progress Of their
squads as they settle down
to the last lap of training for
opening games. That is, they are
as well satisfied as could be ex-
pected, as at this time of the veal
no coach is entirely at ease in re-
gard to his outlook, no matter how
good his prospects may be.
A foot ball team in the making, espe-
cislly in the first two weeks, IS Jus'
about as ragged and raw as any unoe-
veloped unit ever is. But, considering
this phase Of their work, coaches So
far have indicated that they nave ho t,.a
ing unurual to worry about ana Gna!
they have their squads about as Wen
advanced as they expected. In at Hast
one case the situation is even netter
than that.
Fvsry local coach has expressed him
self in one way or another, feeling tnat
his team should be better than last
wear. With such expressions as
barometer. it would seem that 1oIIoW-
optimistic regarding the outlook Tor the
season. which opens here SATURDAY.
with improved teams playing on local
fields, and with good opposition, some
of the best foot ball ever dished up 1or
the education of the grid1ron deVotees
apparently is in the ofhng.
Georgetown Is back from training
camn today and its squad Is looking
lust about twice as hard ana NJ as
when it returned TO WasnlngCon 1a 1,s
Fall after its preliminary workouts. In
fact some of those connected with the
team said they felt the Blue and Gray
ready now to go through a regular con-
fest THE scrimmages in training camp
have been longer and harder than last
wear and the men apparently nave
profted by it, in that they are tartner
advanced in team organization.
Coach Tom Mills is not going any
further than he did just before ne 4eIC
when he expressed the opinion tnat ne
should nave a better eleven than last
year. The Georgetown man, though,
does not hesitate to say that his squad
seems in better shape and more ready
To 90 than it was when 1t returned
from training camp in 1880.
I'VE are going to have q good 1oet
ball team" says Mills, although can.
not say how itpmay stack up at the enc
of the year In games won. Rlgnt now
it seems to me that we should be con-
siderably stronger than We were last
season, although we lost several excep-
tionally good men. Such players as
Scalzi, at quarterback. and Bozek, at
halfback, and one or two Of the Hnemen
we lost are not replaced easily How
ever, we have a group OF fellows VINO
have good spirit and are pulling To-
gether. and that is what comes through
on the gridiron."

COACH DUTCH BERGMAN Of
~ Catholic University not only will
have a better team than he had
a year ago but it is likely to be good
deal better The Brooklanders in plug
ging along in their practice sessions
have made much more rapid progress
than even Bergman anticipated. The
most pleasing factor in the workouts
so far is the fact that the reserve ma
terial has shown up much better than
ANYBODY expected. Pitted against the
varsity, the second stringers surprised
everybody by winding up with tie
score.
Our fellows have been coming along
even better than anticipated" Is the
way Bergman puts it right now. I'VE
did not expect our reserve material
to show up as well as it Is showing
and I only nope it continues to improve
in the same way. We hardly expect to
be strong enough to stand much chance
Of whipping Boston College in our open
ing game, but we will give them some
thing of surprise If they expect us
TO be as weak as we were last season.
Our team should be much stronger
than in $780,"

CEORGE WASHINGTON is due
" back from training camp tomor-
row, and while Coach Pixie has
said little during his sojourn on the
shores of the Chesapeake, he apparently
has found nothing to make him change
his mind in regard to his outlook, which
summed up Just before he left here with
his SQUAD, was that I'VE will not De as
strong as people thought we would be
last year, but we will have better team
than We actually turned out last year.
The Coloniais have been making
rapid strides, but are not as far ac-
vanced as Georgetown, as they have
been at training camp just one week
less than the Blue and Gray. How
ever, they have been at it long enough
10 get the squad in shape to play a
regular game as part of their practice
session yesterday.

UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND is
" not as far advanced in its training
as the three schools already men
toned. This perhaps is somewhat sur
prising, too, in view of the two big
games the team is to play right at the
beginning of the season. The Old
Liners have not been showed as rapidly
have not had anything like as much
hard work
However for the next two weeks it Is
probable that the squad will get enough
to make up for what 1t has not had so
far. There Is something of a quandary
among Maryland people as to what kind
of a team they may have. They are
starting with a greater number of the
previous seasons regulars in the line
UP than they have ever had, but so far
the combination, which is practically
as it was year ago. has not seemed
TO click. However, when it comes TO
the final showdown, Marylanders believe
they will have a stronger eleven than
wore their colors in 1880.

Coach Walter Young Of American
University believes his team should be
stronger this year I'VE always have
green men and light men and a small
squad in comparison To some Of the
other local schools" remarked Young,
but we should be better this Fall than
last, I believe"
Gallaudet is the one school that is
not figuring much of an advancement
over last season. largely due TO the loss
of really brilliant player in Ringle.
Gallaudet's squads are so small and the
number of its students so few to pick
rom that the loss Of such a player as
f2ingle is much more OF a blow to il
Chan TO the ordinary institution. How

EDISON BELIEVED

Perplexed that he could not

after death, he nevertheless reach

might live on.
For many years he had been an
avowed disbeliever In Immortality,
but in his closing years he came 70

viewpoint.
DR.. Hubert s. Howe. his personal
physician, recalls a conversation
with the inventor in which the
latter expressed his ideas.
Or. Howe quotes him as SAYING:
We'll, II there rs a hereafter. II
doesn't matter. and IL there isn't
a hereafter. 10 doesn't matter eth

best"
Oft-repcated questions about Mr..
Edison's religion caused the family
to issue a statement on the subject
after his death. Denying he was
an atheist. the statement said he
carried a reverence for a supreme
intelligence. ever though he sub
scribed TO no orthodox creed.
