Wnlcn unaQlmlCy OF expert
opinion is not entirely to the lik-
ing of the Tiger coaching staff.
The memory of Yale's amazing
upset last November may have
been forgotten on old NaSSau's
campus, but not by Fritz Crisler
and his assistants. The team
Dick Harlow will send against
Princeton two days hence will be
no more of an underdog than
were the iron men who shocked
the gridiron world by whipping
Moose Kalbaugh'S "invincibles."
Expects Battle
ChiSler expects a hard battle
from the Cantabs.
They're sure to be tougher
against u.s." the quiet-mannered
Tiger boss warned his squad as
he sent his players through a
practice session on University
Field devoted to perfecting the
Orange attack.
We're unbeaten, and they've
lost to the Army, Dartmouth and
Holy Cross. They've got every.
thing to gain and nothing to lose.
They're sure to use a lot of stuff
against us they didn't show in
their other games, and that means
we've got to be fighting in there
all the time if we're to come out
on top"
OF course, Crisler expects to
win Saturday, even if he won't
say so in so many words. But
he's doing his best, and so are
his assistants, to fis It the buga-
boo of overconfidence which has
wrecked more than one Spotless
record for a favorite this fall
and which hung a K. o. on Mas
sau'S chin in its finale last year.
Lack Attack
Critics who have seen Harvard
in action this fall have COM
mented on the Crimson's strange
lack of an attack. For a coach
as attack-minded as Harlow was
at Western Maryland, the Canta-
bridgianS' lack of a touchdown
punch was difficult to explain.
Harlow will probably flash his
attack at our expense" was Girls
ler's comment on the Crimson'S

Dunbar and Cardozo will clash
today at 2:45 in Griffith Stadium
to open the annual colored inter

The game is expected to be a
thriller as both teams have gone

setbacks in every start. Dunbar

But the thing outof-the-ordi,
nary about it, besides the fact it
will be the first game Of interna-
tional flavor for high schools here,
is the fact it puts the Central
eleven on the spot.
You see, the Mt. Pleasanters
generally have been conceded the
championship Of the inter-high
series this year inasmuch as a big
obstacle in Tech was beaten last
week, leaving only Roosevelt and
Eastern in the path.
But there is that possibility the
Mt. Pleasanters might run into a
Snag in these two foes, Roosevelt
being scheduled today at the Cen
tral Stadium, and Eastern next
Friday at the same site.
Balance and Power
OF course, it is not likely that
losses will be taken in these con-
tests, since Coach Hardy Pearce's
crew has shown the best team
play and the greatest amount Of
balance and power of all the
schools this fall. Added to this is
the fact the team is in fine shape
for the drive ahead.
There still rem aims the
thought, however, that one of
those characteristic inter-high
upSets might be pushed into the
picture, particularly in EaStern'S
favor-the Lincoln Parkers pos
SeSsing a very good chance to
sneak in a victory.
Thus. it is that the Mount
Pleasanters must win their re-
naming two gamuS in the series
if they are to be the opponents
for the Mexican invaders at all.
Turning the trick they can then
do all the planning necessary
towards cancelling a scheduled
contest with Lane High, Of Char
lotteSville, Va, a game falling
near the proposed date OF the in
ternational feature.
Riders Handicapped.
Against Roosevelt, Coach Hardy
Pearce'S men will have a more
or less easy task in taking
that foe, since the Rough Riders
will be without such HependableS

and the injured Eddie Lyman.
But against Eastern a tough bat
tie is in prospect as the Lincoln
ParkerS should be a great deal
more polished. with their new
additions better drilled, than
happened to be the case in the

Golfers are turning toward the
shorter swing, claims Wilfrid
Reid, veteran professional, paus-
ing here a few days before re-
suming his auto journey to Flor
ida where he returns to his win
ter duties at the Seminole Club.
While yesterdays rain pre-
vented him from playing a match
with Albert R. Mackenzie, Troy
Carmichael and Roland r. Mac
Kenzie at Congressional Country
Club, Reid elaborated upon the
games finer points.
Allows Greater Body Freedom
Golfers" Reid maintains, ARE
gradually adopting the shorter
swing, rather than the old-fash-
ioned upright swing. The shorter
swing permits them to lower the
elbow, bringing the elbow closer
to the body and allows greater
body freedom. Thus. there is
greater impact when the club
strikes the ball.
THE shorter swing also will find
the golfers using lighter. though
not necessarily shorter, clubs.
Lawson Little uses short
swing, and no one need be told
how successful he has been with
It,"

LOAN SHARK DRIVE
STARTS THIS WEEK
UNDER ACT OF 1918
Small Companies Without.
Licenses Are Warned
by Prettyman.
| PER CENT PER MONTH
LEGAL INTEREST LIMIT
That Charge on Total Amount Is
Meant to Cover All Fees
and Other Charges.

Concerted efforts to drive small loan
companies out of the District. unless
they comply with the strict rules Of
the loan shark act Of 1913, will be
started this week, Corporation Coun-
sci E. Barrett Prettyman announced
yesterday.
The drive has been withheld in the
hope Congress would enact the pro-
posed new small loans act to correct
deficiencies of the old law. This leg
islation has been killed for the present,
however.
Prettyman previously had announced
he was withholding a drive against
companies now operating without a
license only because he had hope Of
adoption of the new law and because
Of the need of families of small in
come to occasional recourse to small
loans.
Assistant Corporation Counsel Ed
ward Curran was assigned yesterday
to take charge of prosecutions under
the 1913 act. Prettyman plans rigid
enforcement. Already he has con-
ferred with Police Supt Ernest w.
Brown on police aid in making cases.
May Ask Special Detail.
In day or so. Prettyman will ask
either that number of police officers
be designated as special squad to
ferret out illegal loan operators or
to have all members of the police
force directed to be on the alert for
them.
Several small loan companies al
ready have closed up, Prettyman has
been informed.
The 1913 act prescribes that COM
panies making small loans must OBJ
tain license from the District, cost
ing $500 annually, and they are re-
stricted to a charge of l per cent per
month on the actual amount of the
loan. This limit is designed to in
clude all manner Of fees, charges and
demands for service.
One OF the principal weaknesses Of
this law, officials have found, is that
''proeurers" of loans have operated
without licenses while acting On meRe
theory" they are not connectS6 with
the loan companies. Also, there has
been the claim of small loan operators
they cannot afford to operate on as
little as per cent a month, including
all charges.
New Proposal Drafted.
To meet this situation Prettyman
drafted months ago a new small loan
act limiting charges to 2 per cent a
month on the unpaid balance of the
outstanding loans and setting I'D
definite rules for all manner of
charges. He intended to legalize the
services of the loan "procurers" so as
to bring them under regulation.
Someweeks ago, Representative vir-
ginia. E. Jenckes of Indiana attacked
Prettyman for not attempting to en-
force the old statute. His reply was
he was withholding a vigorous drive
only to await action on the pending
new bill. Prettyman believes hardship
on those needing loans will result from
rigid enforcement of the old law, but
finds he cannot do anything else now.
Opposition to the Prettyman legis-
lation came from the Russell Sage
Foundation and others, who cham
pioned a law giving loan companies
the right to charge 3.5 per cent per
month interest.
