KICKOFF AT2
Rival Teams Are Ready
Following Final
Drill Sessions
KICKOFF AT 2
BY FRANK BUCK" ONEML

BY FRANK BUCK" ONEHL
Regardless Of whether they win
or lose In tomorrow's intersectional
football game between the elevens
Of Monroe A & M School and the
District All Stars, the boys from
Georgia are enjoying the greatest
thrill Of their lives.
They are playing for tho benefit
Of the hot lunch for school chill
dren fund, Of which Mrs. John
Doyle is chairman.
GREAT CAUSE
They're here to give their best
for the great cause in which the
game will be played. They ask
that the public Of Washington sup
port them.
The Weather Bureau promises
cold weather, but says that the
skies will be clear. If the elements
keep faith with the forecasters,
then 10000 lovers Of football will
hike out to Catholic University's
Stadium In Brookland. The kick
off will whirl through the air
promptly at o'clock.
Twenty-Five strong, the Gold
zephyrs worked out at Catholic
University for the last time this
afternoon, and made a profound
impression upon the critical group
which attended the drill. Late
today the Monroe team will take
sightseeing tour of the city
and there are many things for
these lads to see, inasmuch as
few Of the boys have rarely been
out Of their native State of Georgia.
STRONGEST TEAM
Following today's workout, Davis
REDS Barron stated that he will
start his strongest team against
1.-The District ALI Stars. His line
Averages 180 pounds and his backs
average ITO pounds. From the
workout cleaned today, these
Georgia invaders look and move
like real football players.
The linemen moved with a short,
choppy stride, driving powerfully,
forward. The backs displayed
their wares in slick fashion, with
McAbee showing up well. He is a
real football player, fast, shift and
confident in his own ability.
ALL-STARS READY
The District All,Stars, both di.
visions also concluded their final
workouts today at abou the same
time Monroe called a halt to its
session. The All-Stars polished up
with light drills under the able
guidance, with Coaches Auguster-
fer, Pearce and Baker handling
the assignment at Central Sta
dium, and Ahearn, Boyd and Nit
chell holding light workout at
Western Stadium.
The squads were released from
further work, but were told to
watch diet tonight, turn in early
and report at All-Star hearquart-
ers in the c. q. gym tomorrow at
IL o'clock noon. IT. 1ers Harry
FiddeSop and Ger Lentz will
