trouble of scouting. Well, tomorrow
Bill Reinhart of George Washington
and Jack Hagerty, Georgetown, are
going Rockne one better when their
teams play double header at the
Stadium against Davis -Elkins and
Roanoke, respectively.
Coaches Courtesy.
Hagerty, whose forces are to be
first on the field, has invited Rein
hart to sit on the Georgetown bench
and make notes on the Hoyas, and
Reinhart extended similar invita-
ton to Jack. Thus, while 1t may
seem unfamiliar to see G. w.
coach on the Georgetown bench, and
vice versa, it's only a courteous ges-
ture and a time, labor and financial
saving in the scouting department.
Imagine Mr.. Hagerty leaning over
and saying to Mr.. Reinhart:
"On that pass play your boys just
tried, was the end supposed to cut
back toward the center or go straight
DOWN."
Imagine Mr.. Reinhart's reply:
He cuts in if your center has been
drawn out of position and goes down
for long pass if the zone is guarded.
BY the way, does your safety man al
ways play that deep on third DOWN."

"Stagg fears Beloit" and Bergman
fears Elon. George Washington and
Georgetown are squirting anxiously
at one another-although they have
nothing to worry about this week
and Maryland is afraid of the dark.
It's very distressing. but not partic-
ularly alarming and the team that
gets its ears pinned back tomorrow
can go way back and sit down in
a corner, because the opposition
doesn't figure to come close to win
ming.
Bergman Of Catholic University
suffered from mild case of tremors
earlier in the week when Ed La
Fond's freshmen-using Elon plays
tossed passes around the varsity
like an inebriated publicity agent,
connecting frequently in the fiat and
with long, lazy heaves down the
middle. It gave Herr Bergman a
shock and caused him to wonder if
he wasn't regarding Elon a bit too
lightly. 1t has been done, you know,
as California will attest.
Cards Primed for Elon.
But extensive repairs have been
made in the Cardinals aerial de-
fense since and If anything gets
through it will have to have a note
from the referee and be high-grade
stuff a la Baugh, O'Brien or Luck
man. Bergman is confident his boys
will stop the plays the freshmen
used this week. Now the problem
is whether Elon will employ the
same strategy or cross him up with
a new assortment of maneuvers.
The fighting Christians are noted
for such tactics and it wouldn't be
surprising to see them outsmart the
Brookland aggregation more than
once on brand-new play.
Elon was scheduled to leave Caro-
lima early this morning and was due
at Brookland this afternoon in time
for a workout. The starting line
up probably will include Len and
Saecker, ends; Causey and Donate
tackles; FrittS and Bryan, guards;
Castura, quarter; Boone and Fones
halves, and Golombek, fullback.
While Maryland's game with West
| crn Maryland at Baltimore will be
its first under the lights, the Terps
actually will feel more at home than
they do in daylight game because
most Of their practicing is done by
'lamplight. It's usually after 6
o'clock before Frank Dobson car
muster the full squad and usually
$50 before the quitting whistle
blows, so Maryland works under
lights throughout the season.

Third Term Testing Ground.

The system presents an opportu-
nifty for making Oregon testing
ground for third-term sentiment
within the Democratic party. That
opportunity is not overlooked. A
draft Roosevelt organization Is
already formed, with general
chairman and secretary and COM
mittee membership in one-half the
counties of the State. The primary
falls on the third Friday in May
1910.
AS already indicated. the third
term movement requires neither Sc
cret nor outward cooperation OF
the President, or of any member OF
his administration. If Mr.. ROoSe-
welt desired to stop it his only re-
source would be personal persuasion
If he entered formal protest with
the secretary Of State, who Is the
official that receives the filings, ii

supporters insisted on going ahead
with the movement.
1t is commonly conceded that II
Mr.. Roosevelt's name goes on the
presidential primary ballot, the
party will indorse him and thereby
instruct the 10 Oregon delegates to
the convention to support his re-
nomination in the convention un-
less and until released by him.

mony on this, nevertheless. Charles

F. ID. r. Would Win Primary Contest.
Garner and other presidetial pos
sibilities will be wise to keep off.
They could not defeat Roosevelt in
the primary, but if he occupies the
ballot alone the vote for him will be
subject to some discount, because
experience has shown that even a
nonentity can get presidential or
vice presidential preference vote in
Oregon in an uncontested election.
That there is interest In the Ma
tional Capital in test so free from
outward White House blessing as
this was indicated earlier in the
year. The 1899 Oregon Legislature
attempted to advance the date of
the Oregon primary from spring to
fall, and this made necessary a re-
peal OF the presidential primary.
But the Oregon primary Is widely
held In the sanctity of the sacred
Apis bull of ancient Memphis. 1t
was a strict requirement that the
Apis bull must be black, have a white
triangle on his forehead, white
crescent on his right side and a
le-shaped lump under his
tongue. Any black bull otherwise
marked was religious fraud and
fit only for biological purposes or
for making hot dogs.
The Oregon primary sprang from
the people. ANY deviation from it's
established markings is politically
irreligious. Hence a referendum by
petition was successfully invoked
against the legislative act, which has
the effect of preserving the presi-
dental primary law until the people
vote 1t out in November, 1910. The
referendum would have been in
voked in any event, but it had the
known blessing of men in Wash
