Believe Kansas,
n. Y. u. Shaky
c. U. Sees Big Threat
In LoyoIo; Keydets'
Passes Worry Terps

Plenty of spirit on their part and
justification for believing that their
opponents are not in the best of
shape will mark the departure of
George Washington and George
town this evening and tomorrow
morning for big games on Saturday
The Colonials, who were to board
a western-bound train at 4:30
o'clock, not only are thoroughly
primed for Kansas after two weeks
rest, but have occasion to believe
that the JayhawkS are not mentally
prepared for them. They believe
that the Nebraska game took lot
out of Kansas last week and see
good possibilities of returning home
with their first major victory of the
campaign.
Two Colonials were not to make
the longest trip undertaken by any
local college team this year. Guard
Tim SWEET still is confined to the
hospital with pleurisy, and Frank
Farsas, reserve guard, has an
ankle sprain which will not permit
him to play. Dean Reese, a sopho-
more, will take Swett's place in the
starting lineup.
Hoyas Celebrate Tonight.
Coach Bill Reinhart will work out
his charges on the Washington Uni
versity field in St. Louis tomorrow,
afterward continuing to Kansas
City, where they will spend the
night. The team will not 60 to Law
renee, the university town, until
Saturday morning.
Georgetown, ready to turn dreams
OF its second undefeated season
into reality, understood today that
neither Capt. Ed Boell nor Jack
Barmak, another backfield star, was
sure Of playing for N. Y. U. Satur-
day. Coach Nal Stevens was quoted
as saying Boell probably would not
start against the Hoyas, but that
there was chance that his ace
passer and one of the East's best
all-around backs would play a por-
ton of the game.
The Hoyas will leave for New York
at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning after
another big send-off scheduled at
the Hilltop tonight. The quadran-
gle again will be the scene of a
gigantic bonfire, planned to be even
bigger than the one built before the
Maryland game.
Catholic U. Skeptical.
Two special trains have been char
tered to take Georgetown roote-s
up to New York, with one leaving
tomorrow morning and another in
the afternoon. A smoker under the
joint sponsorship of the New York
chapter of Georgetown alumni and
the New York Athletic Club will be
held tomorrow night at the N. Y. A.
c., at which Coach Jack Hagerty
will speak. Lou Little, former
Georgetown coach now directing the
destinies of Columbia, will be among
those on the welcoming committee.
Meanwhile, Catholic University
host IN the only game here Satur-
day-frankly was skeptical about
returning to winning ways against
Loyola of the South. Like the Cards,
the Louisianans boast a big, rugged
line, with their Ed liable earning
recognition as one of the best
guards of the South.
But what has c. U. most worried
is another light back in Joe Fracchia,
170-pound speedy and shifty runner
OF the type that has given the Car
dlnals trouble all year. Fracchia is
a triple-threat back and, reputedly,
the whole Loyola offense.
Terps Look for Passes.
Loyola hasn't beaten C. U. since
1896, but as it lost only four men
from the team which bowed to the
Cardinals by a 14-0 score last year
it has high hopes of breaking the
three-year drought.
George Lawrence has been ap-
pointed to captain Maryland against
v. M. I. at Norfolk, but the veteran
guard will not be in the Terps'
starting lineup. Ed Lloyd, senior,
will start in place of Lawrence, but
the latter is not expected to idle
long on the bench.
Maryland is expecting an aerial
attack from the Keydets, who COM
pleted 10 out of 16 against Duke last
Saturday. Coach Frank Dobson
planned final long workout against
passes today. The Terps will take
the boat Southwark tomorrow night,
arriving in Norfolk Saturday morn
ing.
