Roosevelt will carry little more than

ing it will achieve an upset. but hard

player comparison gives Tech de-
cided edge, while Roosevelt's lack of
reserve strength figures to hamper its
chances of victory considerably.
The Rough Riders thus far have
proved themselves strictly a first
half ball club. Against Western,
Roosevelt trailed, To, at the half and
then lost, 1876. Against Eastern it was
the same story, with Roosevelt holding
the Lincoln Parkers to a scoreless tie
in the first half and then dropping
the tilt, 1870. The Riders were con-
sistent in that respect against Gen.

first half and then being walloped,

TINE bewildering process of trying
to weigh all angles connected
with Georgetown's meeting
with Maryland on Saturday
seems to be producing, if nothing
else, a newly found and lush ap-
precation from the man on the street
and on the campi for a blocking back.
Nobody outside of Maryland's
coaches and Georgetown's scouts, for
instance, gave much thought to Johnny
Gormley until this week, when it was
learned that an ungentle bump in
the V. M. I. game had injured his
shoulder and made doubtful his
chances of playing for any length
of time. Johnny Gormley is Mary
lands blocking back. He almost
never carries the ball, and even the
College Park inmates, who can rattle
off the information that "53" is
Guckeyson's number, can't think for
the the life of them what numerals
adorn the broad back of Gormley.
Now that he is hurt and a
doubtful starter and Maryland
people who know foot ball are
shaking their heads mOrosely
the big guy suddenly has be-
come somebody of importance.
For three years he had been the
cream in Guckeyson's coffee and the
laces in his shoes. For three seasons,
when the ball was snapped and every
body looked at Gyke start running,
Gormley disappeared in the scientific
confusion of foot ball and heroically
wiped away part of the enemy's sec
ondary defense. II he doesn't play
Saturday, the sense of belated appre-
citation may become even more acute.

Guckeyson Still Big Threat.

GUCKEYsoN still is the same
menace, but the recent turn of
events has served to make George
town a positive choice. In their last
two games, while Maryland was hav-
ing a tough time defeating Richmond
u, IL to 0, and losing to v. M. l.,
2 to 13, Georgetown gave West Vir-
ginis trimming, % to 0, and lost
to a powerful Manhattan eleven by
only o to 13.
Another angle that serves to bolster
Georgetown's position in the College
Park fracas is greater reserve strength.
AS the teams will trot on the field
there appears little, if any, difference.
Georgetown is conceded an edge in
the line, Maryland in the backfeld
But when it comes to replacement
the story is all Georgetown. The Hill
toppers are two or more deep all down
the line, Maryland has played most all
its foot ball with Is men, and these
iron men" have begun to tire under
the strain of eight games, seven of
them major affairs.
On the other hand, Georgetown has
figured in only seven contests, and
two of them were minor affairs. With
more assets the Hilltoppers have un-
dergone less strain and rate to be
fresher than the Terps Saturday.
TerpS to Miss GOrmley.
A most recent happening that has
hurt Maryland's stock is the in
jury that appears likely to keep John
Gormley, great blocking and defensive
back, out of the contest Saturday.
He's tops in his angle of the grid
pastime in these parts. Ed DAILY, his
understudy, is shorter and not so fast
as Gormley-
Gormley was back on the field
yesterday after an absence of two
days, but his shoulder was not in
good shape and just how much use
he may be to the Terps Saturday is
as uncertain as it was at the outset
OF the week. He ran through signals
and will be prepared to perform up
to the limit of physical capabilities.

O full share of attention. Neither was
satisfied with the attack of his charges

Georgetown fears Guckeyson and
the other fashy Terp backs, and
Maryland is giving great consideration
to Tom Keating, the Hoyas' star at
tacker, and that powerful Hilltop for

Tech has shown sporadic flashes

tits. 1t capitalized on break to trim
Western by one touchdown, outfought
and outplayed Central in displaying
its best form to win, 60, and then
allowed Eastern to push those Gray
jerseys all over the field.
Should Tech lapse into ragged
moments, Roosevelt might conceivably
surprise, providing it gets the breaks
and shows more foot ball than it has
to date. A graph of Techs play this
season would resemble a mountain

Must Be Rock-Ribbed.

A QUEER strain Of foot ball species
n is a blocking back, especially on
a team like Maryland or Georgetown,
whose systems call for backfield man
who does almost nothing else except
throw himself at the feet OF defensive
players in hopes of knocking them
down.
He must take his place in foot ball
with his mind delicately attuned TO
resignation. The "61" on Gormley's
jersey, f'instance, is known about as
generally as Mahatma Gandhi's phone
number. He can never covet the
cheers for the ball carrier, even II
they do belong to him for clearing
the path. That would induce spark
of selfshness, and from that spark
would be famed a bonfire of dissen-
sion
He must be rock-ribbed,
steel backboned individual.
While the ball carrier searches
for his hole, the blocking back
starts running like a kid play
ing cops and robbers and stink
ing along q low hedge.

end sweep. for example, he hurlS him.

A combination Of the single and

Western Maryland invades the c. U.

son for the Cards.
OF the three games lost this season
by the Flying Cardinal eleven the win
ming outfit has employed this style OF
play. In the game with Ole Miss at

HOyas Have Their Martyr.

GEORGETOWN, too, has its un-
known soldier. Like Gormley, he
is a stocky-legged. stout-ribbed boy
named Wilfred Vahquette. Like CORN
ley, who finishes this season, he prob
ably will spend all three years of his
college career blocking, for Valquette
is sophomore. AS matter Of fact.
Valiquette's day of work Is not as
varied as the Terrapins.
Gormley, now and then, catches a
pass. Valiquette almost never does.
He kicks extra points after touch
downs. but so does Gormley and the
Terp has had more chances. Vail
quette has carried the ball three times
in seven games this year. Gormley
had done it, perhaps, five or six times.
At least one Of Georgetown's
games has been saved by Vail
quette, however, for it was he
who wiped out the lone re-
manning New York University
tackler after Larry Hardy had
blocked a punt and picked 1t
up to race to the Hoyas' only
touchdown.
George Washington and Catholic
University have their unsung heroes,
too. joey kaufman and Vic Sampson
are on the tip Of everybody's tongue
whenever Colonial backs are discussed.
but George Jenkins and Capt. Frank
Kavalier are not. jenkins runs far
more frequently than Gormley or
Valiquette, but, primarily, his job Is
to block. The same goes for Kavaier.
Foot ball players themselves appre-
ciate the blocker, for Kavalier never
has been star. and yet the George
Washingtons elected him captain last
even know who he was.
