CIV. GRID SQUAD.
GREAT At.
CAMP LETTS
BY HARRY COSTELLO

by hAhhI COS 1ELLO
CAMP LET'S, Md, Sept. 6.
George Washington University's
1882 football squad looks great.
1t is big, solid squad. -
1t is impressive in practice ses-
Sions.
The chances are better than
even money that the Colonials
this season will have the great
est grid team in the history Of
the university.
Squad Well Advanced
Right now, the squad is three
weeks more advanced than the
normal football squad.
The candidates for the team
are in prime condition, mentally
and physically.
Veteran lettermen comprise q
full team which is now running
signals.
The squad is ready for scrim-
mage.
One is inclined to be enthusi.
astic about this group of Colonial
athletes. However. in ones en-
thusiasm one cannot overlook the
needs of the squad. ..
Those needs may definitely be
listed as: Cd a No. 2 back; (2)
decided improvement in often
sive guard play; 80 inspiration.
When the competitive season
gets under way, the team un,
doubtedly will have the inspira-
ton, albeit this important item
can never be taken for granted.
1t is an Intangible, but tangible
need of any football team.
Modern footballs No. back
is the key man of any great Of
fensive combination. This in
dividual attacking unit must be
big and strong, fast and hard
hitting, agile and quick. He must,
above all else, have a decided
yen for deStructivenesS. When be
hits a defensive unit he must MtIA
only ground that defensive factor
but hurt him as well.
Carlin Is Prospect
A study of the G.. w. squad in
four practice sessions to date
brings to light one man who can
if he will develop into a truly
great No. 2 back. That man Is
Lee Carlin, veteran backfield star.
Carlin is heavier this year, and
the weight he has added in a
year gives him his great chance
to be remarkably fine No. 2
back. ,~-
AS for the development of hard.
running, hard-hitting guards for
the attack, it is not exactly q
Simple matter. A pair might be
developed out of Wilson, Stewarts
Dixie. DooSe. Hickman and Tomp-.
kinS. A youngster may come
through. However. hard work
confronts the guards who must
improve extensively if they are to
properly serve the interests of
their team. -,
A squad of close to so candi:
dates will report to Head Coach
Tommy Mills when Georgetown
University opens its football
training on the new Hilltop field.
this afternoon. Heavy replace
ments are necessary because of
severe losses through graduations'.
This year marks the first since.
1928 that the Hoyas have begun,
early fall training on their own:
field. The coming of Lou Little
to Georgetown in 1924 found
them that year at Orange, Va.
Since then they have trained at
Monmouth Beach, N. j., Asbury
Park, N. j., Wildwood, N. j.,
Ocean City, N. j.. Point Lookout,
Md, and Rehoboth Beach Del. d.
Curley Byrd, chieftain of the
Maryland University football
army, pulled a surprise on his.
soldiers following their first as:
Sembly yesterday. He lined UP

U.F.L. RALLIES TOILING FARM
MASSES FOR HUGE PROTESTS

On December 1.-THE Hunger Marchers appeared
IN Washington to present their demands to Con-
gress. On February the masses of workers and
farmers who sent these delegates 10 Warrington will
demonstrate in their cities and towns and demand
millions strong that the capitalist class disgorge
part of its bloody profits for the relief of the un
employed workers and destitute farmers.
When Hans Rasmussen went thru to Washing
ton the workers in the big cities told him that they
were solidy with the small and middle farmers in
the struggle for relief. Hans and the other farm
er delegates brought to them the message Of soil
darity of the toiling masses with the workers in
the cities in the struggle against hunger
The demonstrations on February must be
greater demonstrations of this solidarity of the
small and middle farmers, the exploited farm mass
es, with the toiling masses in the cities The DEM
onstrations of February will be demonstrations
not only for immediate relief for the unemployed
workers, but will be demonstrations against evic-
tons of toiling farmers from their land, against
the attempts on the part of the Wall Street gov
eminent TO press robber interest and taxes from
the farmers.

FARMERS RUINED
BY FARM BOARD
DEBTS DRIVE FLORIDA FRUIT
GROWERS OFF THE LAND

Steiner, Fla We note in our
capitalistic press all kinds of stor-
les about slave labor in Soviet
Russia. But nothing is said about
the slave labor of the farmers and
growers in the U. S. A.
As a grower and farmer in
Florida I will give a few high
lights on how we are swindled by
the dealers, who are backed by
our Washington government. It
cost the covers at least one dol
lar a box of 16 OF. to produce or
anges. The fruit is sent to So
called cooperative" packing
houses to be packed and shipped
to the northern markets, and is
sold at auction to commission
men up north at any price this
gang of cut-throats are willing tt
pay; and in most cases it doesn't
bring freight and charges, ant
a bill is sent to the growers fol
expenses. This system has beel
going on for over 20 years.
The U. S. farm board is furnish
ing this cooperative" association
with money to lend to the farm
ers then takes a mortgage on tn
farm, altogether with an ironcla
contract to market the grower
fruit. Now as the grower can ge
nothing for his fruit to pay hi
note this contract is in force in
definitely and the growers eventu
ally lose their farms.
This same fruit for which tn
growers get nothing is general
sold for 60 to 80 cents a doze
or about ten to twelve dollars
box retail. The dealers take it al
The growers and farmers in tn
u. S. are absolutely slaves to til
dealers. Of course that is in til
U.S.A. and not in Soviet Russia.
