Operates Two BaCkfieldS.

EVIDENCE that George Washing

backfield coach, operated two differ
ent combinations, neither with the
assistance of Leemans. and got equal
results.
In one quartet we're Plotnicki. quar-
terback: George jenkins and Floyd
NeWberry, halfbacks. and Lou Carroll,
fullback. In the other were George
Trinastich, quarterback; Herb Reeves
and Joey Kaufman, halfbacks, and
Ross Marshall, fullback. Leemans
was given the day off to quiet stom-
ach ache. Also among the spectator
group were Ray Hanken, veteran half
back: Bruce Mahan. sensational soph-
omore halfback. and Mig Tihila, 2O5-
pound sophomore fullback.
The backfelds took turns behind
the flrst-string line, on offense and
defense, and appeared equally eftec-
tive thus showing an abundance of
reliable material with which G. w.
almost is certain to produce powerful
running and passing attack
Especially brilliant along with Plot
nicki was Carroll, who clipped on
repeated gains by dint OF digging
after being half tackled. Plotnicki,
who had an in-and-out career the last
two seasons, fairly exploded when he
hit the line. They say the South Bend
Pole is the toughest man in the squad
to stop at the line Of scrimmage, al
though he weighs only 100 pounds.
G. w. Given High Ranking.
How much more powerful the back
l. field would be with Leemans and
Hankens working with perhaps Car
roll and Plotnicki is speculative, but
logically the answer would be stronger
than year ago, when, for lack of
consistently effective offense. George
Washington lost to North Dakota and
Vanderbilt in games it figured to win.

Back in the dear old golden days.
when a lot Of lads and laSSies read
the name of Bobby Jones in the
gazettes, they used to tromp out TO
Inwood or Mericn or wherever the
championship was being played, to see
this man-eater chew 'em up. The
U. S. G. A. was rolling in gold and
they treated Jones as a chorus girl
handles a callow millionaire.
When Bob left the game the reve-
nues dropped of so you could put
'em in a thimble and hear 'em rattle.
Now new pay streak has been hit.
His name Is Lawson Little. and the
way the dough rolled in at Cleveland
one would think lot of folks knew
something about golf. It's the name
brings out the cash customers, even
though they don't know a stymie from
a surf board The golden days are
coming back and Lawson Little heads
the new dawn Of prosperity.
In the meantime. unless they ar
range to gang him, Little will con-
tinue to rule the roost. No single
man is going to take him.
Evening star., 1935-09-18
And, Here's the Scheme.

the first round would take
couple of par-slappers like j
Goodman and George Voigt and sei
Lawson out to play their best ball.
Little probably would win. so thel
I would have him meet the next
team, possibly Walter Emery and
Eddie Held or Willie Turnesa.
If he won his way through this one
they then might coax Bob Jones back
into the game, give him a good part
ner like Tommy Armour and toss the
two of them at Little.
This seems to me that's the only
way they can strike him out. Against
any single amateur playing golf to-
day the man is too good.
Here in Washington some years
back a lefthander named Harry
Courtney, used to do what the boys
laughingly called pitch" for the Mats
Harry would load the bases and with
lot of husky hitters coming up and
Clark Griffith would call for loose
timber Walter johnson or some other
mound ace TO get the team out of
the hole.
Can you imagine Harry Courtney
retiring a string of sluggers like Ty
Cobb, Sam Crawford and Bobby
Veach?
The analogy is the same with Law
son Little A lot of guys armed with
peashooters stepped out out there at
Cleveland to fight fellow armed with
field gun, capable of shooting miles
where they were shooting inches.
I repeat. the only way they can get
Lawson Little out Of the title picture
is to toss IN couple Of men at him
at one and the same time, and have
them shoot two shots to his one The
U. S. G. A. might cultivate that
thought.
