~AMP LET'S, Md. September
n 5.-The biggest single prob
Y lem facing the George Wash
ington University foot ball
coaches was partly solved today with
news that Orville "Ab" Wright, de-
pendable regul.f end on last seasons
team, had decided to quit his Gov
ernment job and return to school.
Wright. whose absence thus far in
training camp here left the Colonials
with only one experienced end, Hank
Wonder Bruegge. now Is expected to
report on Saturday morning and hustle
himself into playing condition. BY that
time most of the 50-odd varsity
players will have reached physical
condition permitting hard scrimmage,
but the trinity built Wright shouldn't
require much time to catch up.
Tough for Sophs.
THE return Of Wright means that
some Of the sophomore flank
men will have to exceed previous ex-
pectations If they hope to break into
the varsity picture. But, too, it may
be the factor in developing an ex-
traordinary battle for recognition
from the coaches that can't help but
result beneficially to the team.
Wright, an aggressive lad who
pushed himself forward from the re-
serve ranks last season to beat out
the veteran Arnold Benefeld, proba-
bly, will not stand by meekly while
some aspiring soph snatches his wing
position.
In short, he should prove q better
end than in 1884 when his fierce
blocking and defensive work, plus an
unusual amount of speed afoot. quail
fed him as one of the finest flank
prospects to perform for the Buff and
Blue in many years.
Sophs Scrap for Jobs.
WRIGHT'S opposition for regular
w end duty includes such scrappy
sophs as Tommy O'Brien, Leon Morris
and Deverne Liddicoat who as 1884
freshmen tore many a varsity play to
pieces while coaches smiled in antici-
patton Of 1885 performances. O'Brien,
one Of G. WIS outstanding basket ball
players, never played foot ball until
last September. One afternoon Of
watching the freshmen battle the
varsity inspired Tommy to get in there
for the cubs cause, and with little
waste Of time be showed Freshman
Coach Jean Sexton he was a fighter
to be reckoned with, inexperieuce not
withstanding. A great fighting spirit
plus aptness for picking up anything
athletic soon enabled him to see con-
sistent action against the varsity.
G. W.'s weather luck finally was
washed out yesterday when for the
first time the prevailing clouds Of this
section Of the country turned loose
torrent here that made outdoor
practice virtually out Of question.

'RA|N|BOOT' BALL
IS EASY TO SNAG
It Defies Regulations, but
Nobdy Seems to Mind.
Rain Slows Drills.
BY ROD THOMAS.

~ uTCH BERGMAN'S new
tangled foot ball, the "raini-
boot" made to order for such
- weather as this mornings.
may be heard Of In big way this
Fall.
The ball is no different from any
other kind Of pigskin except that it is
tacketed in strips of corrugated rub
Der. And what grp it affords-it's
q JOY to play pitch and catch with the
thing, even for a non-gridder!
Except for a few feet of newsreel
and a mention here and there in parts
of the country. little publicity has
been given the Bergman creation, but
once the ball is used in a regular
game very likely it will be heralded
far and wide as one of the most
sensible innovations that have come to
the sport in many years.
Inventor Likes 1t, Anyway.
BERGMAN lists the following ad-
~ vantages afforded by the "raini-
boot:
Perfect aid to the center in passing
(all types of center passing).
Perfect aid to backs in receiving
the ball regardless of the type of pass.
aid in maintaining the timing in
all plays.
Forward pass game made possible
regardless of condition of ball.
aid in receiving the forward pass.
Keeps lateral game open in all its
phases.
Reduces fumbling.
Improves running game because
center can give the back lead pass.
Aids punting.
"Place-kcking and dropkicking not
affected by the boot.
Helps safety man in handling
punts.
Speeds up the game; the official
does not have to call time out to dry
or clean ball.
Helps deception.
1T is invaluable for practice in
signal work and scrimmage in in
clement weather.
aids in maintaining shape and
size of ball
ITO summarize, the rainiboot offers
improved all-around offensive play;
because Of the threat Of the forward
pass the defense must play practically
in a normal position; it makes the
game more enjoyable to spectators"
Will Save Grid Shows.
IRON all of which one might sur
mise that the rainiboot will make
q faster and more spectacular sport
Of the grid game. Certainly it will re-
duce fumbling and permit Of plays
that ordinarily are little used with a
wet oval.
Some of the best foot ball attrac-
tions scheduled here last season were
spoiled by miry gridirons. Neither
team in several instances could func-
tion anywhere near normal. George
Washington was criticized for dearth
of offensive plays when as q matter
Of fact the Colonials had plays they
couldn't use without great risk be-
cause of a foot ball that was, like a
creased porky. Wet or dry, the raini-
boot is so easily thrown and caught
that one must experience its use to
appreciate it. And in naming its vir-
tues Bergman overlooked one. That
thing can be thrown one mighty long
distance.
It violates one regulation, which
forbids corrugating the surface of the
foot ball, but Bergman has been given
assurances that the Rules Commit
tee will make no protest If the ball is
used by mutual consent of opposing
coaches. Hunk Anderson, for one,
has announced he will ask for the
ball If It's q wet or snowy day when
his team, North Carolina State, plays
