 There are some very good mining prospects near Juneau. If we had time to talk to some of these wealthy tourists to whom five or ten thou sand dollars is small money, we might make mines out of some of them. Wealthy old men furnished the money to make the jobs to build Southern California.

MEAT FOR CRITICS.
Familiar Names Appear for
Four Straight Weeks in
List of Stand0utS.
BY ALAN GOULD,
Associated Press Sports Editor.

n yEw YORK. November 6.-This
M weeks all-America gridiron
roundup gives a pretty fair
1 idea Of the difficulties this
season in selecting, by any known
yardstick, the outstanding four backs
roaming the collegiate premises.
With no hold-overs from last years
generally approved combination Of
Riley Smith, Bobby Wilson, Bobby
Grayson and Jay Berwanger, the field
has been wide open from the start.
Latest reports make it wider than
ever, with performances in the decisive
November games due to settle the
countrywide argument over the
prowess of current backfield aces.
For the fourth straight week familiar
names are on the list of standouts.
They include Sam Francis, Nebraska's
versatile fullback; Northwestern's Don
Heap. a conspicuous figure in his
teams great triumph over Minnesota
last Saturday; Ace Parker, Dukes
triple threat; Byron Haines, the Uni
versity Of Washington's great running
and passing back; Cecil Isbell, Pur-
dues all-around star: Bob Finley.
Southern Methodist fullback and No.

and Ray CBuzZ Buivid, the key man
in Marquette's unbeaten march. All
have shown consistent class since the
start Of the 1886 campaign.

Buivid at His Best.

RUIVID, against st. Mary's. turned
in his most effective performance
Of the season by tallying two touch
downs, one on 75-yard gallop with
an intercepted pass, and pitching the
pass that resulted in Marquette's third
score.

week, returned to action with spot
light achievements. Goddard, scouts
report, almost single-handed pulled
victory out Of the fire against Cali
fornia by throwing two long passes
for a total of 50 yards, then bucking
across for the touchdown that led to
q 14-13 Cougar triumph. Baugh
tossed three touchdown passes as

Moulin Georgetown has . soph who
should rival the potentiality Of Meade
and Sampson as q running back.
Joe Keegin Is another young ball
carrier coming up and, so far, the
name Of Tony Barabas has not been
mentioned. Smart foot ball men,
Hagerty among them, rate Barabas
potentially the greatest mail car
rier" Of them all and he will have
another year to prove 1t.
The way to look at 1t, probably, is
to visualize them in another teams
backheld. Suppose Pitt had Guckey-
son or Heating or Carroll or Kauf-
man? Or Fordham? Or, has any
invading eleven this season shown
you . better. back than any Of this
crop?

Eastern Backfield Strong.

EASTERN will have conceded edge
in backfield strength, with Al Kid
well, Roy Michaels, Chick Di Giulian,
Paul O'Brien, Russ Kendrick and Jack
Shugrue. all clever ball toters, ready
for action, but will be forced to donate
a margin in weight and experience to
Westerns forward wall.
Weinstein and Snead, however, may
Offset whatever gains the Eastern
backs will make. Both boys caused
considerable trouble against Tech and
Roosevelt. with Weinstein's smashing
line plunges proving one of the high
lights of the scholastic series thus far.
Comparative scores in recent games
find the traditional rivals about even.
Western trounced Roosevelt, 1876,
while Eastern trimmed the Rough
Riders, 1870, on a wind-swept field
that killed punting and passing.

WITH KEEN SPIRIT
G. w. Seeks to Reveal More

Terps Need Rest.
BY ROD THOMAS.

w YITH most of the big games
history, the foot ball fever
wv of thousands of Washing
ton fans may have sub
sided, with another high climb due
when Georgetown meets Maryland NO
yember 81, but for the players OF all
four major teams the coming week
end Is nothing insignificant.
Catholic University, facing West Vir-
einia Wesleyan at Brookland, Will
strive to avert third straight defeat.
No Cardinal eleven since Dutch Berg
mans first year at Brookland, 1880,
has lost more than two games In a
row.
Georgetown will go to Morgantown
with an unbeaten record to protect,
and it'll take a lot Of protecting. for
those West Virginia Mountaineers
have lost only to Pitt and whipped the
tar out of a team that Georgetown
won from by only TO, meaning Gin
cinnati.
/. George Washingtons game here Sat-
lrday with Davis-Elkins is interesting
mostly for the reason that Jim Pixlee
will attempt to uncover more stars.
He will dig deep into his squad Tor
players to oppose the Senators.

Cards Still Ambitious.

TT WILL be battle OF seniors When
Catholic University takes on West
Virginia Wesleyan. with no less than
is players on the two teams finishing
out their last season of varsity foot
ball. eight of them Cardinals, includ-
ing Fullback Bob Makofskie, Halfback
Bill Adamaitis, Ends Hermie Schmarr
and Zeke Brown, Tackle Elwood Glenn
ents, Guards Arnold and Joe Antha-
navage and Center Joe Yanchulis.
All was not lost for the Cardinals
when Mississippi smeared their clean
slate and Loyola poured salt upon
their wounds. To beat West Vir-
ginia Wesleyan, the team that upset
Duouesne after the Dukes had
trimmed Pitt. and to conquer Hunk
Anderson's North Carolina State
eleven then Western Maryland would
leave the Redbirds with a season
record not to be despised. And they're
still eager for achievement.
The game between the Cardinals
and Bobcats will be the fourth in 81
years. In 1915 c. U. fell, 100, and
in 1919 was shellacked. $50. Last
year c. U. won. 1876, at Griffith
Stadium, with the victory points COM
ing in the last five minutes. The
score was 6-6 starting the final
quarter.
The Brookland contest will be tops
for Washington gridiron attractions
this week. General admissions will
retail at 81 10 and box seats at $1.65.
Colonials Take No Chance.
THERE is little chance of Davis
- Elkins upsetting G. w. Pixlee
will shoot his heavy ammunition at
the outset and, once the game is
clinched Gf it Isl, plans to send In
as many reserves as permissible in
order to draw a line on the capa-
bilities Of certain players as yet OF
undetermined rating. Thus far almost
every reserve called into action has
responded with a meritorious per-
formance, notably Tim Stapleton and
Izzy Weinberg, guards; AL Haringer,
center; Vic Sampson, halfback; Bruce
Mahan, quarterback, and Lloyd Berry,
end. Pixlee and his chief aides, Bill
Reinhart and Botchey Koch, believe
that other lesser knowns will ring the
bell when given a chance.
Davis-Elkins last week lost to st.
Vincent's, a strong, small college
team of Pennsylvania, by q to O.
This same st. Vincent's downed West
Virginia Wesleyan, to O.
On comparative scores, considering
that Wesleyan upset Duquesne, victor
over the mighty Pitt, Davis-Elkins
doesn't appear extremely soft. Wes-
leyan, it will be recalled, downed
Duquesne, 20, on muddy field when
q Duke punter fumbled and was
tackled behind his goal with the ball
In his arms.
Last year the Senators came here
to absorb the worst beating of their
campaign. George Washington's at
tack clicking on all cylinders to
achieve a 53-7 victory. A repetition
Of that massacre is not expected this
Saturday, but the dope favors G. w.
to win by comfortable margin.
Catawba and West Virginia will
follow Davis -Elkins on the Colonial
schedule, and if all three are defeat
ed the Buff and Blue warriors will
put away their togs, glorying in the
most successful foot ball season of
George Washington history.

Picking Up a Loose End.

AL Woods and Bozie Berger.
Georgetown had Charlie Par
cells.
They ruled for two or three years,
and in their shoes stepped Tuffy Lee
mans, who may have been the greatest
of them all; Bill Guckeyson and Irish
Carroll, who bore potentialities to
such measure that many predicted he
eventually would eclipse even Lee
mans.
This season there has been no let
down. If there Is no individual who
can match the sheer ability of Lee
mans there are half dozen who can
come so close that this disparity. If
any, is far outweighed.
Meade Is Highly Touted.
EIT and ready, Guckeyson un-
= doubtedly is the cream of the cur
rent ball-carrying crop. Even held
back by injuries, he has stood out this
season, his last in college foot ball.
He has a great running mate in Cole
man Headley, middle distance running
star. And, in Jim Meade, Maryland
has sophomore who seems destined
to be a headline figure for the next
two pigskin campaigns.
Foot ball men usually suspend judg-
ment on sophomore, as base ball
folk wait for the second year of even
the brighter big league rockies.
But in the case Of Meade, who
kicks, runs, blocks and proves
. defensive bulwark, none has
risen to dispute his claim to
future greatness.
Over at Catholic University Carroll
has disappointed, even as the Cardi-
mails themselves. Last season, when
turned loose, there was no stopping
the soph, who was rated on q par
with Guckeyson and second only to
Leemans. This season Carroll has lost
some of his right to sports-page
streamers, but he still has time to re-
claim them, and, when he does, he
will find them willing to shout his
merits.
Hagerty Molds EN- Fast.
SCARCELY trailing Carroll in abil-
- ity Is Dutch Bergmans obviously
prize sophomore of 1864 Russian
kid named Vidnovic, who can kick,
pass and run with equal facility.
Jim Pixlee lost Leemans, but he
at least partially filled the gap. A
sophomore, Vic Sampson, went great
guns in the early part Of the season
and when joey Kaufman hit his
stride the George Washingtons had
one Of the best backs in the section.
Both Of them will be back next year
and should be better.
Jack Hagerty fairly has been
molding backs with unbelievable
speed. His prize today is Tommy
Keating, whose only crime is
slowness afoot, and this b mot
enough to detract from the null
tiple things he can and does
well.
He is as hard to bring down as
Guckeyson or Carroll, without having
their speed. He can pass - well
as Guckeyson. and probably is the
best field general In town. In Elmer
