wizened appearing man, who
spoke in a voice as modest as a
16-year-Old girl (the 1897 16-
year-OId girls, not the 1934), out
smarted the whole gang when
he said that:
Given mis- chance to choose
between the alternatives of Sus-
pending two schools Zone of
which was his OWN or suspend
ing 'em all from further inter-
high play, he voted for the lat
ter, in that while his school
was in a fight, Western, not
Tech, was the aggressor.
His was the fastest piece of
thinking in the whole testimony,
including that of the ruddy-com-
plexioned lawyers.
DR.. Newton, of Western, was
the next gent to take the wit
ness stand. DR.. Newton is a tall,
spare, professional appearing
gentleman who might also be
skilled surgeon, his bearing be-
ing so confidence-inspiring.
Wanted to Go Home
His only regret was that the
meetings were too long and
boresome. He has no patience
with long-winded hearings. He
wanted to get back to his class
rooms and tend his flock.

captain, started what appeared to
be a reverse.
Fakes Pass
He faxed the pass behind the
line to one of his mates, but in
stead Of slipping the ball to
another Hoya unit, held on to the
leather and ran right by several
Roanoke boys who didn't know
who had the ball until it was too
late. On the run of So yards,
looked fast and agile.
Meglen failed at goal from place
ment.
Since the Maryland game Is in
the offing, and since Georgetown
has two weeks in which to prepare
for the fast-traveling Terps, it is
meet that Georgetown's players
should know how they looked in
the final game before meeting
Maryland.
The Hoya line has come far, al
belt in last nights game number
of the boys we're stalling about.
Particularly is this charge true
against Georgetown's giant cen
ter, No. 25. This player cannot
play such football against Mary
land.
Georgetown's backfield looked
rather bad defending against the
forward pass. Three times in the
second quarter. the diminutive
Weeks, Roanoke quarterback,
tossed perfect heaves to his re-
ceivers. all three of whom were in
the clear and all three OF whom
droppd the passes tossed to them.

The Hoyas seemed content to
play like fury for a minute or
two and then to coast. There can

This game of national i'm

in a schedule that features an

OWNERS MAKE
BEAU GESTE
To HEYDLER
BY FRANK "BUCK" O'NEILL,
Times Staff Writer

Times starr Writer
And so the major league owners
came together and gave their re-
firing president, John Arnold
Heydler, a clean bill of health in
the eyes of the baseball world.
Creating the post of chairman
of the board of directors and ap-
pointing Mr.. Heydler chief of
that board for life, baseball made
the beau geste of its existence to-
ward an honest and scholarly gen.
tleman who has given the best
years of his life to the advance
ment of baseball's interests.
1t was feared by those who
have followed the varying course
of baseball through the years
that the resignation of Mr.. Heyd-
Ter was forced following his an
nouncement that he had main
tanned vigil over the closing weeks
Of the season.
Certain it is that his announce
ment did not sit we'll with many
baseball men. However, baseball
has reason to rejoice that nothing
cut of line was discovered.
Baseball, like college football, is
a medium of heavy gambling. I
don't care where the ball park is
located, you can get a bet down
on ball or strike, hit or out, win
or lose. In the Polo Grounds of
New York the gamblers congregate
on the left field side of the stands
close to the visiting dugout. In
Boston they form a ring in the
left field pavilion. In other parks
they have other rendezvous.
Usually they are not far from
concession stands.
Bet On Nod
They bet on the nod if they
know the man offering a wager.
A stranger lays the dough on the
line and pays or is paid i'm
mediately after the issue is
decided on the field.

quarter, after Harry Costello
Roanoke's punter hadn't done so
we'll, G. U. came into possession
of the ball and worked it down
close to the Maroon goal line.
Meglen went back, as if to try for
field goal. The center snapped
the ball to Meglen, who tossed to
PARCELS. Roanoke's right half
back was nowhere around. Par
cells caught the ball and stepped
across the goal line. Meglen goaled
from placement for the extra
point.
In the fourth canto, PARCELS
grabbed a Roanoke heave. He
caught the ball as he was at
Georgetow11's 32-yard stripe. He
ran 68 yards for a touchdown with.
out a Roanoke player touching
him. Meglen again goaled from
placement for the extra point.
Shortly after this, Georgetown
had the ball at the Hoya 42-yard
line. Joe Saverine, G.. us great

DR.. Smith, Of Central, was
next. He agreed with every
thing, protested nothing, and
asked no recount.

glasses, nervous, also tall and
lean, but not eating his custom

when he taught me bookkeep-
ing back in 1907-gosh, is that
bird Miller that old?-spoke in
a moderated profundo, but with
no fire like I prefer to see in
witnesses.
Hart is a clean-cut guy, the
kind to whom you'd like to send
your children as students. He
testified to not having been
present at any riots. He has a
game of his own to watch out
there on the banks of the East
ern Branch, and it was no bar
gain!
DR.. Davis Opposes
The last principal to depose
and say, was Prof. Allan Davis,
of Roosevelt, nee Business High
School. They used to call him
"F'roggy," a quarter of a century
and more, ago.
DR.. Davis is the only principal
out of the five who looks like
he gets enough to eat. Other
than him I never saw such a
skinny gang in my life. Medium
height and fat as Santa Claus
with mile-wide smile and bald,
DR.. Davis didn't explode for a
dime, as he used to when us
boys played hockey when Roose.

Syracuse has a scoring record Of
1913 points to II. Michigan State
has played a somewhat stronger
schedule than the Orange,
which doubtless accounts for
the difference in scoring actiVi-
ties for and against.
Army Faces Harvard
Army's warriors, with only one
defeat against their record, go
into action with Harvard's bat
tered legions in the ivy gr own
stadium by the Charles River.
This looks like a question of
score with Army winning han
Oily. Harvard showed fight and
ability to play under pressure
in a heroic if losing stand
against Princeton. 1t may sue

check, but the probabilities are
