One Dial to Control
 Newest Motor Cars

TORONTO, Oct. 14.-R. s. Bur net, New York, manager of the standards department of the So- ciety of Automobile Engineers, in session here, told the gathering that perhaps the next few years would bring about the operation of an automobile by one small dial on the steering wheel.
 Automotive engineers, said Bur- net, are now getting away from the trend toward higher speeds and increased engine and riding efficiency and turning definitely toward simplicity of operation.

A Grand Idea

Picture for yourself the leader

q shortstop afield, backed up by
the wisdom and brains of the
better part of half century in
baseball. 1t sounds ideal to me.
The fact that the Washing
ton club is principally owned by
a man "aged in the wood of base
ball." and that he has abso-
1utely no other business interest
and has time and thought for
baseball, in which he is verita-
bly, stepped, is a fortunate one
for Washington.
Therefore, I think Mr.. Grit
fifth is not to be despiSed be-
cause at 81 he has enough in
terest in baseball to want to get
little closer to the actual oper-
ationS of the club. Most men
are pulling away from the plate
at that age.
It is true it is not the general
practice in baseball; that the

finger on the team. but where
else in baseball is an owner bet

at least one fear removed. The
bouts going to a finish.
Several weeks ago, Dusek and
Vassell came to grips at the
Clark Griffith Stadium in one
of those 45-minute time limit
bouts. AS time was up, VaSsell
plunged Dusek through the ropes.
For some unknown reason, the
referee awarded the decision to
Vassell and this action befuddled
Dusek. He afterwards declared
that the bout should have been
called a draw.
Be that as it may, DuSek claims
he'll have no cause for doubt to-
in the shortest possible time.
Dusek declares:
watch me go against this

GU, GRID HOPES
SLACKEN

GeorgetoWns HoyaS are worried
en- the eve of the important New
York University game.
Ray Hudson, captain and star
end. may not be able to take the
field against the Violent VioletS.
Hudson was injured in the
CanisiuS game last Sunday.
Hopes were held that he would
be ready for the Hilltoppers' big
game, Saturday. but Rays injury
has not responded very we'll to
treatments by Trainer Harry
Crowley.
Several other injuries, among
them one to Mickey Lione, have
added further to Hoya worries.
Despite the injuries, however, a
hard, tight game is in prospect
when the Blue and Gray goes
against N. Y. U. Coach Tommy
Mills has worked hard all this
week on a new formation de-
signed to spread out N. Y. US de-
fense and to shake AL Kelly, Will
mer Bradley or Charlie PARCELS
loose into an open field.
Another worry Of the HoyaS is
the performance of the line to
date. The backfield, admittedly
one of the best, has performed
brilliantly, but the forward walls
work has been of an in-and-out
character, giving rise to the con
lecture that the line will slow
up the speed of Kelly, Bradley
and PARCELS.
Kennedy smallest of the quar-
terbacks, will probably be at the
field general position when the
Hoyas take the tield in New
York. The teams confidence in
Kennedy is unusual, and Mills
hopes that the Hilltoppers will
arise to the occasion, under Ken
nedy'S driving power, and win
over N. Y. U.
Charlie PARCELS and Dick Dan
rer were not in yesterdays test
ing scrimmage. The former was
out of the play due to a wrenched
muscle in his shoulder, while
Danner was suffering with leg
injury. Both are expected to be
ready for Saturdays game.
Mack Stanley is another back
field man out with injuries. He
has a knee injury.
Reports from New York indl,
cate that a crowd of $4,000 Will
attend the game.

High Hopes for Season Held by Dewitt Prer
TOUGH GAMES
FACE TEAM
AHEAD

Although Dewitt Prep hasn't the
team it's been known to have had
in past years, followers Of the grid
sport out Upton Street way, are
enthusiastic over prospects for
this season.
They base their reasons on the
eleven's recent shoWings against
Benedictine, of Richmond, Va,
and the Navy Plebes.
In this former contest-played
at Richmond about two weeks
ago, the Devitters held the strong
Benedictine gridmen to a score
less tie, and that was an accom-
plishment in itself because of the
Virginia teams strong rating.
Next, the Navy PlebeS were
met at Annapolis last Saturday.
In this engagement-an annual
one-Devitt showed that it had
promise for its several games
ahead even though defeated
handily.
Tough Schedule Ahead
A tough schedule faces Dewitt
for the remainder of the season.
On October %, the Harrisburg
Academy eleven is to be met at
Harrisburg. Pa. Following will be
game with the Catholic Uni
versity Freshmen at the Brook
land Stadium, October %.
Then comes games with st.
Johns Prep of Washington on No
vember 4: National Training
School, November II, and New
port News High at Newport News,
Va, on November 10.
Dick Turner, formerly of the
University of Virginia, is Devitt's
coach. Under his wing are a col
lection of willing candidates who
hope to win a few games for
their alma mater before the year
is ended.
In the backfield are such men
as Tony Latona, formerly of
Western High School; Archie Via,
formerly of w. & L. High of
Ballston, Va; Ed Fredericks,
former All-Star gridmen from
Gallon, Ohio; and O'Hara, and
Slick, newcomers. p.
LatOna'S First Year
This is Latonas first year in
football and Coach Turner is
authority for the statement that
the lad is surely a conner. He
has been calling the signals in
Devitt's games so far this season.
The remainder of the team
comprises the following players,
all linemen: Long, and Schmidt,
guards; Clements, center; RoSen-
berg and Shore, ends; Mathers
and Jarboe. tackles; and Hyslop,
Norman, Mcleod and Ellis, util.
ity men.
Tech High School footbailers
are not leaving anything undone
IN getting prepared exactly right
for the coming interhigh series.
Having lost Artie Wondrack by
his recent shift to Eastern, the
Manual Trainers have signed E.
E. Foxley as Coach Hap Hardell's
assistant for the remainder of the
season.
Foxley. who is head coach of
Techs baseball team, used to
matriculate at the University of
Utah, where he played football a
great deal.
