ROUT,A A|M0F
QUAKERS
BY TOM THORP

Notre Dame will be given a
hard test by Pennsylvania at
South Bend this weekend.
The humbling which the Fight
ing Irish subjected the Quakers
to on Franklin Field last fall
has not been forgotten. The
Keystone Staters have pointed
their season for this meeting of
this weekend.
They are invading the Indiana
football center for the sole pur.
pose of avenging themselves for
what the Irish did to them last
year. Judging from what they
have shown to date they have a
much better chance of bringing
about the desired result than
year ago.
Hunk Anderson'S Irish have en-
gagged in five games to date. They
triumphed over Indiana. Drake,
Pittsburgh and Carnegie Tech.
The strong Northwestern team
held the South Benders to a
scoreless tie. The Irish have run
up 142 points against sturdy op-
position. They have had but II
points Tailed against them. These
we're put across by Jock Suther-
lands Panthers, a real sturdy
and finely coached outfit.
Harvey j. Harman has brought
Pennsylvania back to the front
rank among Eastern gridiron lead
ers. The former Pittsburgh star
has infused a new lease of life
into the Quakers. The latter have
rolled up five victories in as many
starts. Swarthmore, Franklin and
Marshall, Lehigh, Wisconsin and
Lafayette have been defeated by
the representatives of William
Penn. They have shown a strong
offensive machine. To date they
have scored 108 points to 20 by
their rivals.
Every winning team has some
real purpose at which to shoot.
The late Knute K. Rockne was
the first modern day coach to
recognize the fact that to make a
team fight it's best a cause must
be espouSed.
Coach Harman has developed
a real smart team at Penn. The
80 victory over Lafayette last
Saturday must not be taken too
seriously. The Quakers naturally
let down after their triumph over
Wisconsin. They are sure to be
in much better mental and physi-
cal shape to play their best this
weekend.
Notre Dame has a strong team.
We do not subscribe to asser-
tions many are spreading that
this is the greatest team the
South Bend school has ever
turned out. It is not. The great
Rockne is missed. Hunk Ander-
son has worked we'll with his
lads. But Anderson is not Rockne.
He cannot hope to inspire his
lads into the frenzy of playing
as the old master did before big
games. The present Notre Dame
outfit is more a mechanical ma
chine than any former Irish
team.

6. v. LINEUP
DOUBTFUL

Coach Jim Pixlee, George
washington grid mentor, is quite
undetermined as to the team he
will send on the field Saturday
night against Salem College.
Conflicting reports on the
strength of the West Virginians
has made him wary of them
and it is quite likely he may
send his regular entire eleven
into the game at the start.
The Colonials are being put
through stiff PAGES by their boss
this week and will be ready for
anything Salem sends. The
visitors are said to have a
tricky passing attack and also
employ spread formations with
good results. Defensive measures
against both of these were
stressed in practice yesterday.
Unable to Don Suit
Unless Frank Blackstone has
a speedy recovery from the
bruises he suffered in the Iowa
game young Jay Payne is likely
to start at center for the
Colonials Saturday. Blackstone
was unable to don a suit for
practice yesterday and Payne
moved up to his berth as pivot
on the first team in practice.
Payne has a world of hustle
and spirit and is good COM
petitor. He showed this in the
Iowa game in the few minutes
he got into the game when he
relieved Blackstone. The latter
has been such a consistently fine
performer in the G. w. games to
date that both Payne and Conn,
reserve centers, have warmed the
bench practically all the time.
Now 1t looks like Payne may get
his starting chance Saturday
night.

G.U.BUCKNELL
LOOMS AS
BATTLE
By GEORGE A. SIMPSON

BY GEOhGE "A. SAnF DUN
There may be lifting Of eye
brows if Maryland comes horne
from Nashville, Tenn, with the
scalps of the powerful Wander
bilt eleven, but such is not re-
mote by any means.
It will be one whale of bat
tie and the margin of victory
for either team will be slim,
providing that Maryland's first
stringers can go through the
game without requiring heavy re-
Inducements.
In event that many Maryland
regulars weaken or are forced
to leave the game because of
injuries, the contest will most
likely develop into a rout for
the Commodores.
Short In ManpOwer
Maryland is short in man
power the necessary reserves to
bolster a sagging first team.
Coach Curley Byrd has some
ambitious youngsters, eager to
flash the old fight when called
upon, but shy of experience.
One mistake by a novice in a
major game like Vanderbilt may
mean victory or defeat.
This scarcity of useful, replace
ments has annoyed Maryland's
coaches all season. Before the
season opened. one of Maryland's
assistant coaches remarked that
the team would prove a sensation
if the regulars could hold up.
Old Liners Unbeaten
It has succeeded so far and
surprised supporters, having de-
feated Washington College, Vir-
ginia, Navy, V. M. 1. and V. P. 1.
and tied Kentucky.
Vanderbilt looms as the last
barrier in Maryland's march to
an unbeaten season, although
Johns Hopkins and Western Mary
land should not be overlooked.
However, if Maryland manages
to hang the bee on Vanderbilt,
the Old Liners should not have
much difficulty in its remaining
games. That is, if they don't
get too high an opinion of them
selves; in which case, even Wash
ington and Lee might throw them
for a loss.
Real Contest Seen
Mention Of Bucknell has ever
aroused the competitive hearts of
Georgetown teams and Saturdays
game in the Griffith Stadium is
expected to be a real football
contest. That's what the foot
ball fans want.
Still vivid are those last four
football games between George
town and Bucknell, starting with
1922 and ending with 1925. All
were smashing games, alive with
thrills and decided by close mar
gins.
Georgetown is going into the
contest unmindful of her wounds
and scars and determined to send
a sheafed Bison eleven back to
Lewisburg, Pa. The job will not
be accomplished without stub
born fight, for Bucknell has
never been known to curl up and
quit on her coach. It's one of
those Pennsylvania coal region
teams, the type that sends chills
up the spines of such gallant
coaches as Dick Harlow of West
ern Maryland; Lou Little of Co.
lumbia, and Greasy" Neale of
West Virginia.

Hilltop at Best

Now, and this only requires
a little imagination to align
in your mind, Maryland will
have to defeat Western Mary
land a month from tomorrow
by more. than 18 points, the
difference Georgetown eStaS
ished between its team ao1
the Westminster eleven when
the Hilltoppers. came out VIC
torious by IS to Z, in order to
claim superiority in this trium'
Virate.
The question is, can Mary
land do this. 1t will be at the
end of a long hard schedule,
whereas it Is doubtful if West
ern Maryland's foes will have
been SO comparatively formid-
able when everything is taken
into consideration.
Georgetown was probably as
near it's peak as at any time
during the season on the Sat
urday it opposed Western
Maryland. Certainly the Hill
toppers had the best taken
out Of them in the New York
University game. Indeed they
have never recovered from that
34-to-O defeat they suffered
in New York.

That Old "33"

The numeral "33" was a

out of the fire to prove 1t.
Parker discovers, as any of us
might who would have gone to
the trouble. that Yale and
Dartmouth played a 1888 tie;
Fordham defeated West Lib

Hit High Spot

The Blue and Gray hit the
high spot of it's season in their
early disposal of Western Mary
land, up to that time unde-
feated in two years George
town was at its best that after
noon of October. Will Mary
land be the same way some
four weeks from tomorrow?
The many who for a while
were in hopes Georgetown and
Maryland might get together
for the sake of sweet charity
will be watching closely Mary
lands game with its foes from
the western section of the
State, in order to more accu-
rately speculate on what might
have been the outcome of a
Georgetown Maryland game had
it ever have come to pass.

To BATTLE

In 1928 Ray Howe and Eddie
La France were teammates with
Manchester High Schools crack
football team.
Howe, an end, and La France,
a guard, generally were consid-
cred outstanding in their respec-
tive positions, frequently teaming
up to stop enemy backs or opel
holes for ball running associates.
When Catholic University plays
host to Manhattan College at
Brookland Stadium, 2:30 o'clock
Saturday, Howe will be holding
forth regularly for c. u, while
La France is to start for the
Jaspers.
''It certainly will seem funny
to buck Eddie" Howe remarked
today, "but rest assured I will
be driving with everything I've
got at the whistle. He's a good
boy though and our fellows will
do well to watch him every
minute. He's a whale of \
tackler and is good on Offense,
too"
Although Catholic University
overwhelmed the New York City
College eleven that succeeded in
deadlocking Manhattan in an UP
set, Washingtonians may expect
anything but a loose game when
the kickoff is launched Satur-
day. Primarily John Laws boys
are pointing particularly {or this
game. And again the Gothamites
will unfold a squad that greatly
outweighs Catholic.
Striking a team average of l79
pounds the Green and White
boasts a line that scales 189 and a
backfield ranging around ITO.
