BEVERLY HILLS, Oct. 26.
(SpeciaD - All the western
states held a convention in Los
Angeles the other day on tax
alton to see what the running
of the various states was cost
ing 'em.
They found it was costing
'em so much that they are
talking now about letting Mex
leo have them back. It's taken
since q believe it was 1922
for us to realize Mexico won
that war. But like all con-
ventions it did nothing but
hold a business meeting and
pass some resolutions, then
hold a banquet and the walters
passed some cocktails. Then
they all went home and got
ready to vote for the same pol
iticians that put the last tax
raise on 'em.
But a good time was had by
all. Please pass the gravy.

Grid Prospects Loom Dark at Georgetown
MD. SLIGHTLY
BETTER OFF
THAN HOYAS
By HARRY COSTELLO

BY HARRY COSTELLO
Hope to merit football heaven
by making earth a hell-for your
opponents.
George Washington and Cath
olic University 1888 grid squads
must remember that as they pre-
pare for the coming season.
Hope is brightest when it
dawns from fears.
Georgetown and Maryland
teams will have to be satisfied
with that as they prepare for the
coming season.
G.. w. and C. U. have the ma
terial, the coaching, the opportu-
mites.
Georgetown and Maryland have
the coaching, lack of material
and may or may not make the
opportunities.
Skies were never of a deeper
indigo hue than they are at the
Hilltop of old Georgetown today.
Interest in the Hoyas is lacking,
too, which makes matters worse.
Reached Top
However, this same condition
existed for the team of 1918,
which came on from the bottom
to reach the top by defeating
probably the best team Virginia
ever had. Of course, there is
no Virginia game today to bring
out the traditional courage of
Georgetown, but the Hilltoppers
must show all sorts of courage
if they are to have a team which
means anything to any George
town man.
Jack Haggerty will be hailed
as a miracle man if he can win
an important game with the ma
serial out of which he is forced
to build Georgetown's 1888 eleven.
Maryland is not so badly off
as Georgetown. Even so, the Old
Liners face a task none too light.
The opposition which Maryland
has bitten off is not to be shifted
at in any football league and
makes a cud hard to chew.
G. w. has a colorful lineup
of opponents. In the Colonial
schedule lies G. WIS great op-
portunity. If the Colonials can
make earth a hell for their op-
position, by playing the kind of
football of which G.. WIS men
are capable. the buff and blue
of e. w. should be high on the
flagstaff at the end of the sea-
son.
No COIOrful Schedule
C. U. has not the colorful
schedule of opponents which G.
w. has. However, C. us games
are just as hard as those of the
Colonials. The Flying Cardinals,
nursing a grand winning streak,
face difficult games, but they
should come through with flying
colors, if and when they prove
capability for giving the opposi-
ton hell on earth. The Cards
have it in 'em to do it.
Today Georgetown and c. U.
start practice. Maryland started
yesterday. G.. w. started Sunday.
A study of conditions surround
ing each of the four teams men,
toned, a knowledge of mental
attitudes and candidates, and a
careful analysis of possibilities,
probabilities and certainties, furn-
ish the basis for the tone of the
foregoing paragraphs.
Spend Dollar and Make job

BY GAR WOOD
CAS- told to Harold KahD

I'm very happy that I, and
Orlin Johnson, my mechanic, and
the Miss America K were able
to keep the trophy in the United
States. And want to congratu-
late Hubert Scott-Paine, who is
a great gentleman and a fine
sportsman.
He is coming back, mind you,
next year, and he will have an
other excellent boat. don't ex-
pect to lose the trophy, but If I
4 have to lose it to anyone think
I'd like to lose it to him.
Achieved Object
Scott-Paine learned lot in
this years race. That, I am told,
was his principle object in COM
ing over here this year. I admire
him for it. He has a wonderful
spirit and he is very determined
to lift the trophy.
I have heard there are rumorS
that this years Harmsworth was
the last I intended to drive. I
want to deny tneSe rumOrS-Iney

right on defending the trophy.
At times yesterday on the
straightaways Orlin and I were
going 1O5 miles an hour. And rid
ing at this speed in the Miss
America x was actually easier on
us than riding the swells in one
of those little runabouts you sec
along the river.

petition in the future will be much
faster.
However, am not planning any

such a second-rate team as
Washington should be coast
ing ahead as it is!
It is just possible my good
friend that you are normally a
Yankee rooter, transplanted to
Washington, and you just can't
bear to see the old Yankee ma
chine crumble on the rocks?
Leastways, Gordon, granting
your analysis is even approx
mately correct, there is nothing
to stay awake nights over in as
mediocre a team as you find
Washington to be, winning the
pennant. If such a team ac-
tually does come through to the
flag, as it probably will, it
wouldn't exactly be precedent!
Why?
The Washington times., 1933-09-05
Cant Understand

Although I am decidedly glad
to see Washington at the top
of the American League, I can
not understand how they ever
got there.
The OutfieId, to say the least,
Is playing One-third of its
power. To affirm that either
GOSlin or Schultz is function
ing as a star, or even a good
player, is to ignore facts. To
date, GOslin is just around the
300 mark and Schultz is not
far away. Neither is Sammy
West when it comes to fielding.
Manush is the only ranking
Outfielder in the pasture.
The pitching staff is a ques-
tiOn mark. Besides CrOwder
and WhitehilI, the team cannot
boast of a first-class hurler.
The work of Stewart, Weaver
and Burke is just $3.50. Rus
sell, however, is a good relief
hurIer.
The silver lining is the in
field. 1t is fast, hits for an
average of 1903, and all men
are hustlerS.
AS a catcher Luke Sewell is
only fair.
We have, in the main, a team
weak in the Outfield, but with
a good infield plus a mediocre
pitching and catching staff.
The team cannot boast of one
single slugger.
The Washington times., 1933-09-05
It Has Happened

Because the 1924 ball club,
not even as good as the 1888
team, did it,. when all master
minds of the game agreed that
Bucky Harris first charges had
no more right winning a pen
nant than they did winning a
debate against the Harvard
class in political science.
"A misfit crew." they wrote
and said of the 1924 Griffs.
Until Earl McNeely joined the
club out of Sacramento away
past mid-season, the club lacked
the missing link to become
champions.
In fact the 1924 Griffs ap-
peared so lousy in spring train
ing camp at Tampa that two of
the Oldest Washington writer's in
point of service pronounced the
outfit so putrid they declined
to take the first Western swing.
But they took the second and
the third and then wound up
talking to themselves when
Walter Johnson stood the
Giants on their heads in the
seventh game of the world
series with the Giants, pebble or
no pebble, catcher's mask under
Hank Gowdy's feet or other
wise.
That 1924 team, Mr.. Gordon
Scott, and possibly the 1888
team, too, are two of the reasons
baseball is the fascinating game
it is. Thing happen that
can't possibly be figured out on
paper or reconciled with prob
abilities.
That's baseball, me hearties-
nothing cut and dried about it.
