1.-TWO outstanding foot ball
players will show their stuff
i to Washington fandom this
week end, when st. Francis
Is met by Catholic University Fri
day night and Georgetown plays
West Virginia in the Hoya home
coming Saturday, both games IN
Griffith Stadium, and the only
ones listed here.
st. Francis will bring Streese Bru-
baker, who starred in the backfield Of
Western Maryland last year and the
year before when Western Maryland
was undefeated, and West Virginia will
display one Johnny Doyle, who is &C
claimed human rifle with the leather
his bullet.
Not until yesterday it seems, did
Catholic University learn Of the pres
ence in st. Francis lineup of Bru-
baker, and the knowledge was a tonic
to the Cardinal squad. 1t had reckoned
the Pennsylvania eleven breezer and
looked for little more than a workout
Friday night.
ToACH ARTHUR BERGMAN was of
~ a mind to let down on the practice
acquitted itself so well in recent games,
but with Bruebaker and c. u. knows not
who else to stop Friday, the Cardinals
were given brisk drill yesterday with
more of the same on tap for today.
st. Francis is playing st. Vincent at
Latrobe, Pa, IN an Armistice day affair,
but is saving itself, it is understood, for
the C. U. Game, which it regarts as the
big thing on its schedule. incidentally,
hone
winning it.
For the first time since early in the
campaign Georgetown on Saturday will
enter combat conceded an even chance
to win, but, win or lose, the game should
be corker from the spectators stand
point. With Johnny Doyle exciting the
ozone and Georgetown playing its usual
open game, some sensational scoring is
in prospect.
TOMMY MILLS will make a couple
4 changes in the Koya lineup. Yourg
Fred Callahan will plant his 6-foot-
5-inch chassis in center in place of
Charley McNIanus and Johnny Shin
minis will replace Leroy Bordeau at full
lack Callahan and McManus have been
alternating considerably anyway, but
the fullback change is something quite
new.
Bordeau has carried more than one
mans share of the backfield burden all
season and, being the type who puts his
all into task, has worn himself to a
fraZz1e. Shimnlins has come along rap
idly in the last two games and, with
Eordeau in his present condition, much
under weight, the substitute might be
worthwhile Improvement. Johnny is
adeEt at knocking down passes, and
Mills may have had this strongly in
mind, too, when he decided on the
change.
Shimmins and Mike Stanley were
Georgetown's most consistent ground
gamers against Bucknell and 1t is likely
Stanley also will be used considerably
Saturday.
Johnny OLIVER viii waive a weak
ankle and play with Catholic Uni
versity, making his return much
earlier than expected. But Johnny
probably won't be called on for much
more than calling signals and tossing
passes, his forte. The Cards are look
ing for trouble with Providence and
Loyola in their concluding games and
are counting on Oliver to do a lot to
overcome it.
Notre Danes squad, which will meet
Navy in Baltimore Saturday, will work
out at Congressional Country Club Fri
day, but it's not a matter of moment
to the public. The Irish have arranged
for all possible privacy. The squad, 60
strong, will arrive at 8 am. Friday, at
tend church service at the Shrine Of the
Immaculate Conception at Catholic Uni
yersity, breakfast in the card dining
hall, then motor out to Congressional.
