If we we're to play regular
game today against any OF our
strong opponents, we would have
no fear that either LeemanS or
Plotnicki might fall short in their
efforts, at least from a mechanlcaI
standpoint. Right now these two
are displaying mid-season form in
their running, kicking and passing.
In blocking and tackling, too, they
are showing pleasing form.
Leemans should, barring the un"
foreseen, enjoy a better season
than in 1884 when he totaled
1854 yards from Scrimmage, and
did most of the teams successful
passing and kicking. This was
indicated by his performance here
yesterday in an intra-squad game
in which Team A scored five
touchdowns to none for Team B.
Tuffy accounted for three touch
downs by dint of excellent run
ming.
Ran Kickoff IS Yards
He ran back a kickoff IS yards
for one touchdown, sped SIS yards
around end for another and took
a nicely executed lateral from
Fullback Herb Reeves for the
third.
On these scoring runs Leemans
pivoted away from tacklres, used
the stiff arm effectively and furth-
er made headway by plain drive.
To top this off ne didn't seem
tired at the finish.
Plotnicki has reached top con-
dition physically and figures to
play a lot of good football this
season. In earlier Scrimmages
Ben showed more drive and
sn arter running than during his
previous two varsity campaigns.
Backs Improve
Some of the other backs, not
ably Reeves and George jenkins,
have improved over last year. Ray
Hanken, the blocking back of the
1884 team, appears in fine fettle
and ready for a strenuous season.
Another improved performer is
George Trinastich. However, all Of
them need experience and will
undergo much additional practice.
During the ensuing four days
some of our players will be taken
a 'ong easily in order to recover
from minor injuries received as
the result of recent spirited scrim-
images. It is hoped they will be
ready for the opening game with
Emory and Henry Friday night in
Griffith Stadium.

Plans
Tough Drills
For rHoyas

With but 10 more days Of &C
tual practice left before the open
er with Albright, Coach Jack Hag-
erty of the Hoyas intends to in
tensify the practice sessions dur
ing the coming week so that he
can get a good idea of just what
to expect from his men.
The Hilltop squad have actually
engaged in one scrimmage. That
session took place last Saturday.
During the past week injuries, ex-
aminations and registration pro-
cedures cut the attendance of his
squad greatly and as a result lit
tie work was accomplished. Be-
ginning today, only one practice
a day will be held, as classes
started this morning.
Eight of the men on the injured
list are expected back today for
practice. Those returning are
John Cavadine, Joe Williams,
Frank Hashey, Bill Hardy, Don
Gibeau, Leo Curley, Cy Cum
mingS and Al Vaccaro. Lew Shuk-
er, who suffered a cash over his
right eye in practice Friday,
should be back tomorrow. Bob
Nolan, who is in the infirmary
with a light attack of the flu, and
an infected foot, should return
sometime this week.
Wally Heron is the only one on
the injured list who will not re-
turn to action this week. The
Hoya co-captain is still limping
around from fractured toe and
it is indefinite just when he will
be back.
Faced with the possible loss of
Heron for the opening game,
Hagerty is searching for a man
to fill his place. His glances at
the present time seem to be cen.
tered on Bill Sullivan, a dash man
on the track team who tips the
scales at 1876.

Presidents Eye
Contest With
Tech High

ALEXANDRIA. Va, Sept. %.
Athletic Director Given Of the
George Washington High School,
has issued strict orders for all
players to report for daily drills
at Baggett's Stadium in prepara-
ton for their Washington inva-
sion on Friday to play the Nc
KinIey High School eleven.
The Presidents displayed good
offensive in the National Training
School game but a few weak spots
developed in the line and Given
is working hard to eliminate this
flaw before the contest with Hap
Hardelrs eleven.
This marks the first game with
Tech in years on the gridiron and
the Alexandrians are anxious to
score over their Washington foe.
Bennie Burrell, flashy halfback,
is out with boils but Given hopes
to have him ready for the crucial
contest.
Episcopal High warriors open
their season Saturday, mixing
with Eastern High of Washington
on Hoxton Field.
Thursday at Baggett's Stadium
the Alexandria "Has-Beens" and
Carter Motor nine play again to
decide the city weekday title. The
last two games resulted in ties.
Active football training for the
Fort Belvoir Post eleven begins
this week. This team will play in
the Third ..rea competition.
The Happy Valley A. c., at a
meeting held yesterday, decided
not to place football team on
the field but to confine all efforts
to baseball.
The Washington times., 1935-09-23

Should the Cubs knock off the
Cardinals in the final series OF
the season, they probably would
go into the classic at no worse
than even money, and might
even be a slight favorite.
The Cubs have been ri din g
high, wide and handsome. A
veritable team of destiny, they've
been getting the breaks. Lady
Luck has been with them but
it must be admitted they have
given Lady Luck some help. In
a word, they're a hot team.
Such team was the Braves
of 1914 which started in last
place in midseason, 81 a m m e d
their way through to a pennant
behind the mastery pitching OF
Rudolph, Tyler and James, and
then astounded the baseball world
by taking four straight from
Connie Mack's supposedly irwin
chile Athletics.
That showed what a hot team,
geared to a frenzy and carried
along by their own terrific mo-
mentum, could do against a nor
mally superior combination.
Will history repeat? In asking
the question, I don't want to in"
innate that there is any such
difference between Tigers and
Cubs, or Cardinals, as existed be-
tween the Athletics and Braves
of 1914. I merely wish to stress
the point that anything can hap
pen, and often does, in a world
series.
The Cubs probably will rely on
Warneke, Lee, Root and French
with Carleton and Henshaw in re-
serve. Warneke was in one losing
world series. He is cagy, spot
pitcher with plenty Of stuff and
the knowledge of what to do
with it.
He'll be no pushover. Lee is new
to world series play but he is fast
and if not too nervous should give
a fine account of himself. The
lefthanded French is a question
mark. He may be very good or he
may be terrible. Larry has lots O.
stuff but he is one of those hard
luck hombres who are all too often
on the short end of / to 0 and 2 to
l games.
Root should do all right if he
can overcome the mental handicap
of two previous series. It was he
who was pitching when the Ath-
letics suddenly launched that 10
run attack in the inning in which
Hack Wilson lost the ball in the
sun.
And if memory serves, it was
Charley who was the victim the
time Babe Ruth called his shot
and hit the next pitch into the
bleachers. The memory of those
events will be with him when he
takes the mound and while it may
do him no harm, it certainly won't
do him any good.

he isn't entirely daffy, for the

New York and Spectator where
Max has trained is a tedious
enough ride for a writing man,
say nothing of a fighting man
who's soon got to cut loose or
go back to his garbage route at
Livermore, California.
Conversely, Joe Louis, and in
keeping with the mans simple
tastes and nature, will prob
ably tie his belonging in an
old Red Bandanna, hook it onto
the end of a hickory stick and
hike in town tomorrow from
Pompton Lakes, the pretty
Jersey postal point where he
has been whiting away his
mornings and shadow-boXing
his afternoons.
Louis is inhumanly un-
peturbed about the proceedings
which will bring him face to
face with probably the hardest
hitter he has ever opposed. A
psycho-analyst visited Pompton
yesterday to go in a trance over
Louis and declared the Detroit
Bomber registered a total blank,
in so far as his repercussionS
were concerned. The man
simply doesn't register any con-
cern whatsoever about the

parently he's like one of those
