INJURIES
HIT HOYA TEAM

OLD POINT COMFORT, Va,
Sept. 14.-Coach Jack Hagerty put
the HilltopperS through a two
hour blackboard drill yesterday in
an attempt to iron out the mis-
takes displayed in Saturdays drill
with Virginia.
Yesterday morning a hard rain
forced postponement of an out
side drill. However, the Hoyas
were far from idle. Taking ad
vantage of the large ballroom, the
coaches utilized the space in run
ming dummy scrimmage and spent
the time in instructions Of the
exact position each man should
occupy. At the close an exami
nation was given each player to
find out if he knew his assign
ment on the various plays.
In the afternoon the Hoya men
tors put into practice what had
been demonstrated at the morn
ing session, holding a long two
hour scrimmage that was packed
with thrills and spills. The HoyaS
suffered their first injuries of the
season today.
In all six men were placed on
the sick list. Shuker, a varsity
guard, had a return of an Ole
ankle injury which bothered him
a great deal last year. Sheehan, q
back, will be out for several days
with torn ngamentS, while Elem
ing and Holerman are laid up with
ankle and knee injuries.
Commenting upon this after
Moons scrimmage the Georgetown
coache expressed themselves as
well pleased with results shown
to date.
Joe Keegin, only missing Hoya
player reported today, thus com
pleting the entire squad.
The work of Joe Franks, a back
brought a CLEAN to the eyes Of
Coach Hagerty as his blocking
and charging was a great factor ir
the fine drill. Maury Nee, an end
likewise was bulwark of the first
teams defensive work against the
second.
