His rise as a player may be traced
directly to his constant efforts to
improve himself and to become let

Deming halls from Sarcoxie, Mo.
He is a junior at G.. w. and pinch
hits as an instructor. He has de-
cided talents as a tutor.
AlI-America Status
Were he a member of an eleven
representing one Of the more
publicized elevens of the country,
such as Alabama, Minnesota, Pitts
burgh, Colgate, Ohio State or
Notre Dame, Deming probably
would be an All-America tackle.
He has the ability. He not only
knows the duties Of tackle but
he carries out those duties in a
manner befitting an All-America
player. A number of coaches who
The Washington times., 1935-01-30

have seen Deming in action have
stated to this observer that they
consider Big Harry one of the out
standing linemen of the season of
1884.
In action, Deming reminds one
OF the great tackles of two decades
ago. He is a Tom Moriarty

19l1-13 and a Newashe (CarliSle's
great all'round lineman and
back of the 1910 era), rolled
into one. He has great leg.
drive, extraordinary power in his
arms and back, is a master of both
the head-on and shoulder charges
on offense. He is down the field
fast on punts, is deadly tackler in
the open, and is destructive to the
Nth degree in close line play on
both offense and defense.
Great Tribute
1t is said of Deming that not
once during the 1884 season,
despite the class of opponents he
was called upon to face, was he
sucked out Of position. This is a
great tribute to Deming, for rarely

masked as it is, does a tackle es.

occasionally.

he is cool under fire, that he knows

ate his right to the captaincy of
the Coloial squad.
G. w. hardly could have chosen
a better captain. In hard games
against Alabama, West Virginia,
Rice, Tulsa, Davis and Elkins,
Wake Forest and Wichita, Deming
no doubt will prove the acumen
of his mates in honoring him with
the G. w. captaincy for 1885.

Some Fine Acting

Some Fine Acting
Don't Give Up the Ship" is the
service motto impressed upon fu-
ture admirals as they take the
oath upon entering the Naval
Academy. Old Commodore Fitz-
hugh in a lifetime of devotion to
the Flag lived this pledge of
loyalty and went down on the
bridge of his battered cruiser as
an Innocent martyr to the SYM
boil.
This makes a highly dramatic
and pathetic finish for a screen
story treated with such dignity
and conviction it might properly
be a part of the Navy archives.
It does, however, break away from
the accepted Hollywood formula
of sending them away with a
smile, leans but lightly on ro-
nance and ends with a sob and
sermon.
Annapolis Farewell" is rich in
its contrasting characterizations.
There is the fresh young plebe,
"Chick" Haley (played by Tom
Brown, who sees nothing to
service career but life of saluteS
and silly orders: there is his room
mate, Boyce Avery (played by
Richard CromwelD, who covers up
Chicks orneriness but detests his
point of view; there is Duncan
Haley (played by John Howard), +,
a crack Navy football player who
foregoes tempting offers to dump
the Navy for a professional grid
iron career, and there is the Com
modore.
Nays "Mr. Chips"
Old Commodore Fitzhugh as
Sir Guy Standing portrays him
is the salt of the earth and the
salt of the sea. Retired from
active service he idles around the
academy he loves so well and be-
comes an amiable bore as he
recites on the slightest provoca-
tion the strategic moves in the
famous battle of Manila. In that
conflict the commodore stood on
the bridge of the Congress and
gave his orders. In the march
of events it becomes necessary
for the Navy to sink the old
cruiser in target practice. The
old commodore goes down with
the ship. To tell just how it
happened would rob this climax
of its touching suspense.
