BUTLER GAME
WITH ALARM

Having been warned Of the
strength of their opponents, the
Colonials Of George Washington
today are down to hard work
getting ready for the visit Of the
Butler Bulldogs here Friday night.
The game will be played under
the lights in Griffith Stadium,
and, unless the local eleven puts
up one of its very best games
another loss may be sustained
by his team, Coach Pixlee fears.
The Colonial mentor stated that
Butler will provide his team with
more opposition than any faced
here this fall except Tulsa. The
Bulldogs are big and tough, Coacn
Pixlee declared to his team yes
terday. Besides it is Buffers
final game Of the year and they
will bend every effort to wind
up with a victory.
Exceptional Players
Five of the Bulldogs were
singled out by the G. w. boss
as players who will provide the
fans with plenty Of fireworks and
cause his men no little trouble.
This quintet Of Captain Kenneth
Booz and Carson Conrad, backs,
and Ralph Moore, center, ana
Lewis Ruff and Charles Sohl'
guards are outstanding. .
Both Captain Booz and Conrad
are fine all.around backs. Be-
tween them they share the brunt
of the Butler offenSe with Cap
tain Booz occupying the star role
as their triple threat. He Is q
fine punter and passer as well
as a steady and dependable ball
carrier. Conrad also is a strong
carrier and blocker.
Formidable at Center
The center of the Butler line is
their strongest sector. Moore,
Ruff and Sohl are all highly
capable forwards. None Of them
uses a headgear and since all are
about the same size, $50 pounds,
they are a conspicuous and color
full unit. Although Marquette
trimmed Butler by three touch
downs they couldn't do anything
with the center Of the Bulldog
line.
Scrimmage sessions today and to-
morrow will feature the Colonials'
preparations for the visit of the
Bulldogs. Special defensive meas
ures will be stressed to bottle up
Captain Booz and Conrad, the
aces Of the visitors attacking
force.

OLD ATHLETES

Homecoming day, Saturday,
will finda the IN" Club host to
the Airline Maryland athletes
of yesteryear. Those athletes to
be honored were chosen by pop
ular vote by the alumni aSsocia-
ton. The IN" Club sponsored
the movement which was sug-
gested by James Burns, IL. All
sports supported by the university
will be represented by a team or
by individual records.
These men will be guests Of
the athletic board at the home,
coming football game between
Maryland and Washington and
Lee. The IN" Club will then
fete them at the home-coming
supper dance.
Two Football Teams
In the case Of football there
will be two teams. This was due
to the fact that about 1906 there
was such a drastic change in the
football rules, bringing into play
the forward pass. Therefore, OF:
team was chosen prior to 1905,
and another from 1905 to 1880.
Only one team has been selected
from each Of the other sports.
The IN" Club announces there
are some 30 or more athletes who
will receive specially engraved
certificates at the homecoming
supper dance, honoring them as
AllTime Maryland Athletes.
President Pearson to Speak
President Raymond A. Pearson
will make a short address of
welcome and congratulation, after
which j. B. Gray, jr., IA, preSi-
dent Of the m" Club, will pre-.
sent the certificates.

Tinita's Record Price

AL the world loves a winner
and therefore it is gratifying
to even be acquainted with
two gentlemen who weren't
looking out the window when
the 6-year-old mare, owned by
b. Long, romped home to pay
$1O6 for ST. The natural queS-
ton about picking this entry
that pops into the mind Of
the speculative, Is, How do
people happen to pick such an
APPARENT outsider"
WS asked the bettors on this
one, how they happened to
"go" to her, and this was their
explanation. They had bet on
her one day at Laurel when she
was about $50 to 81, and OBJ
served that she got away good,
had great amount Of speed,
lasted until well on toward
the end Of the race to finish
about fifth.
They bore her in mind and
determined to play her the next
time out provided the odds
looked attractive, the competi-
ton not too good and the dis
tance right.
Yesterday was the day they
had been waiting for and the
pair Clipped in So each and
played her 81 across the board
So you see, Tinita was not a
tip, a good thing or anything
like that, incidentally the
straight price against her was
one Of the most lucrative ever
known since pari-mutuel bet
ting was legalized in Maryland.

A Great Victory

Now, to get back to Bowie,

out of the $4,000 added Prince
Georges Handicap, Jockey f..
Steffen giving him a nice ride,
improving his position from
sixth at the half to second at
the three-quarter and getting
him home q whisker ahead OF
Tired Avon. Until the numbers
went on the board, many
thought It a dead heat, includ-
ing yours truly who has q
naive way of seeing things
at a race track, anyway.
With so many good horses
and all trying for the hand
some purse, the victory was a
notable one and entirely worthy
of the famous event which had
its ninth running mid one OF
the rarest autumnal surround
ings. In the crowd Of $4,000

BILLY SCHWARTZ
SHOWS GRIT

Boxing fans are today chatting
about the gameness of Billy
Schwartz, Alexandria light heavy.
weight, who lost on a technical
knockout to Bob Goodwin, of Day
tona Beach, Fla, in the headline
attraction of the Day Nursery
boxing program in Alexandria
last night.
Schwartz took an unmerciful
beating from the Southerner but
was never once floored and in
sisted that the fight continue
when Referee Charlie ShoDe
halted the uneven battle at the
end Of the seventh round.
Closes SchwartZ'S Eye
Somewhere in the third 1ound
Goodwin closed \Schwartz'S left
eye with . thunderous wallop and
kept playing for the damaged op'
tic from then on.
In the seventh Goodwin landed
a solid punch just below the
swoolen eye and the left side OF
SchwartZ's face inflated. The
fans pleaded that the fight be
stopped and Goodwin, showing
good sportsmanShip, refused to
hit his battered enemy.
Goodwin was the winner from
start to finish and Schwartz
never had a chance with this
two-fisted lad who had been sub
Stituted for Sammy Weiss
Bleachers Collapse
A bleacher section collapsed
while the Billy ESchinger- Sailor
Oden bout was in progress. Dur.
ing some fast mixing, the fans
leaped to their feet and the
stands buckled. Fortunately, none
was seriously injured, though IL
suffered minor hurts, four Of
whom required treatment at the
Alexandria Hospital.
Eschinger was the winner over
Oden by a knockout In the third
round; K. o. Riley scored q sur
prising four-round decision over
Ray Bowen, flooring the latter in
the first round. Charlie Conner,
Of Baltimore, outpointed Sailor
