For Glory
BY FRANK BUCK O'NEILL


Bowl game by the Flying Cardi-
mails of Catholic University, de-
feated in what they call cam
era eye finish" by Temple Uni
verSity, the football warriors of
University of Mississippi are
threatening revenge on George
Washington. The ColonialS en-
counter the Rebels on Friday
night at Griffith Stadium. Be.
fore the battle is over we will
have a pretty good line upon
the true power of the George
Washington outfit.
The game carries additional
values in that it will offer the
fans of washington chance
to see the team that the Flying
Cardinals edged out in the bat
tie of the Fronded Palms on New
Year Day. The Cardinals, in
cidentally, will go to oxford to
battle the Rebels. and that will
be another Slashing contest.
There is something in the pine
laden air of Camp Let's that is
tonic to the Mississippi lads,
'twould seem. The Rebels tore
through a rip-Snorting workout
in the morning and another
after lunch.
Drill Pass Defense
There was a lot of work on
pass defense, and quite a bit OF
passing. And the writer can
assure the world that when the
"Ole Miss" boys take to the air,
they go about it in a big way.
Ray HapeS, the little guy OF
the touchdown running brothers,
was held out of action yester-
day. But he will be among those
present on Friday night. Your
agent recalls the little HapeS
runnin' wild in that last half
at Miami. The bigger HapeS
was out of the Orange Bowl
game. But Ray did all right.
He probably will do all right in
the coming game.
Clarence HapeS is the big guy
Of the pair. What a man he is.
He can kick a football from here
to there. and when he takes the
notion to go to town through
tackle or over tackle. why he
just ups and goes to town. Moth
ing except three or four tacklers
seem to stop him. If the George
Washington line can stop him,
we will know that everything is
going to be all right.
HutSon is hailed as a football
name in the South, and for very
good reason. There was a Hutson,
Of Alabama, who performed prodi-
gieS in the Rose Bowl game not so
long ago. Now here is a kid,
another Hutson, and his parents
Handicapped him by plaStering the
name of Marvin upon him.
Weighs 21O Pounds
So for that reason, no doubt,
Hutson has been taking his re-
venge on a lot of folks, chiefly
alien fullbackS. You see, he plays
center at Mississippi, and he
weighs 210 pounds. When Big
Hapes is at fullback, the Ole Miss
team has 42O pounds of fighting
fury supporting the line. That is
a potent defensive duo, and they
glory in the impact against ball
carriers.
Jim Poole is a 21O-pound end.
He is trained in the Warner
School that calls for big ends
and fast ends. He has the bulk
and it was quite apparent yes
terday that he has the speed
and the strength. Peters did
a lot of punting yesterday, and
brothers, he kicked.
It can easily happen that
George Washington will win on
Friday night. The Colonials as
this writer sees them, are a
vastly improved team over the
1885 outfit, and this is said with
all difference to Tuffy Leemans.
who was a real football man.
There is greater team work this
wear, and the attack seems to
have far more coordination than
ever. 1t is a bit early to start
chanting the praises of an out
fit, but unless every sign carries
far to windward, George Wash
ington football in the District
of Columbia is definitely on the
upgrade.
