Rocks Unimpressive,
Skins Must Depend
On Vet Talent
Newcomers Not Of Type
To Dent Pro League
Lines, 1t Appears
BY BILL DISMER, Jr,
Star Stan Correspondent.

SAN DIEGO, Calf, Aug. 26.-In
view of what we'd call the least
impressive rookie crop Of the past
five years. we'd say that the Red
skins were going to bank on veter-
ans more this fall than in any year
they've been in Washington.
Owner George Marshall wouldn't
like that statement. Perennial op-
timist that he is, he's calling this
the best training site the Redskins
ever had and the present batch Of
newcomers among the most promis-
ing flrst-year men he's ever seen.
But If he hadn't said exactly the
same things with just as much en-
phasis in 1899 and again last year,
we'd be more inclined to take stock
in his present claims.
Excluding Centers Ki Aldrich and
George Smith, who can't exactly be
claSsed as rockies because of their
previous service with the Chicago
Cardinals and Redskins, we can
only find one standout among the
other 16 men in camp-Tackle Fred
Davis of Alabama.
University of Southern California
followers say Jack Banta, who will
report to the Redskins Friday after
participating in the all-star game
Thursday night. will be a WOW, but
that's still to be shown.
There are prospects of Ends Joe
Aguirre of st. Mary's and Ed Cifers
of Tennessee and Halfbacks Ken
Dow of Oregon State, Jack Guthrie
of st. Mary's and Lee Gentry of
Tulsa making the grade, but they're
not the kind the Redskins will de-
pend on to defend their Eastern
championship.
There's not a new paSser or kicker
in the lot, and only Guthrie and
Dow show any sign of being able to
dent National League lines. In
contrast, the Redskins came up with
such rocks as Dick Todd and Will
bur Moore in 1889 and an outstand-
ing trio in Roy Zimmerman, Bob
Seymour and Bob Hoffman last year.
But the tendency to bewail the
lack of new blood can be offset
by the notable improvement in such
comparative youngsters as those
mentioned in the preceding para
graph. Zimmerman. Seymour and
Hoffman should be so per cent i'm
proved as result of their first years
experience and with Todd, Sammy
Baugh, Andy Farkas and Frank
Filchock in shape, the Indians won't
lack an offensice punch.
The point we're trying to make is
not to expect lot from the new
comers who will be seen when the
opening game rolls around four
weeks from Sunday. There will be
new faces, yes-primarily because
there are only 26 veterans on the
roster and the Redskins will carry
the league limit of 33.
But if the Redskins have a win
ming season. it'll be due mostly to
the fact that ex-Centers Vic Carroll
and Mickey Parks make good at
guard and tackle and that guys like
Aldrich and Smith are bolstering
the center of the line. in addition
to the continued brilliance of Baugh,
Todd, Farkas and Filchock.

Raba Among 81 Boys

Ace Back, Good Baseball
Prospect. Ignores Yonk
PIeu to Quit Football

A good squad of "a candidates
turned out yesterday when Gonzaga
opened the high school football
practice season with its new coach,
Sam Richards, at the helm. but the
big news is that Elmer Raba, who
was only the best schoolboy half
back in or around Washington last
year, returned to the team
Raba, who also is an outstanding
outfielder in baseball, had, and in
fact still has, some ideas OF a pro-
fessional diamond career. This
summer he impressed Manager Joe
Mccarthy in several workouts with
the Yankees and Mccarthy tried to
get Elmer to give up football. When
the Yankees are interested in a
player they don't want him banged
up on the gridiron. but apparently
McCarthy's desires didn't take with
Raba.
Orrel Mitchell. GonZa ga coach
last year, has been praisins Raba
to the Yankees and next week will
take the youngster with him again
when he (MitchelD goes to New
York to take a football officials ex-
animation. Mccarthy may be able
to persuade Elmer to drop football
and 60 with Yankee farm team,
but the boys parents want him to
finish high school at least. He has
two more years.
Coach Richards was very much
pleased with the good turnout that
produced several of last years regu-
lars and a number of second
stringers who now should earn
starting berths. In fact. he has
almost enough experienced players
for starting eleven right now, but
despite that he impressed on the
players that all positions musts be
earned this year-those With repu-
tations must start alresh with the
newcomers.
A preliminary survey showed
Richards he has plainly of ends,
backs and several bulky tackles but
needs centers and guards. G. H.

5tand|ee in Key Job
For An-Star Team
Against Bears
FulIbock for Stanford
In T Attack Looms Big
In Thursdays Come
Nv the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, Aug. 26.-Using Nor
man Standlee of Stanford at full
back on the college All-Star team
may be Coach Carl Snavely's meth
of fighting fire with fire Thursday
night.
Standlee played last year on STAN
ford's unbeaten Pacific Coast League
and Rose Bowl champions which
used the powerful ct" formation.
The Chicago Bears, pro champions
and foes of the Stars Thursday in
Soldier Field, use the same offense.
That's why observers think Stand
lee will play key part in the ALL
Star lineup.
George Paskvan of Wisconsin
doesn't stand much chance of stay
ing at fullback once the game is
under way. Because he polled the
most votes for that position. Pask-
van will start the contest, but the
coach may substitute at his discre-
ton once things get going. And
Standlee looks like the man to re-
place the former Badger star.
Standlee, besides havin gthe bene-
fit of % 0pounds, knows how to
perform the spins and half-spins
demanded by Snavelys offensive
planstn.Paskvan is more likely to
see aeon, if he re-enters the game,
as a quarterback, where he is rated
below Walter Matuszczak of Cor
nell and Forest Evashevski of Mich
igan.
Evashevski, due to start at quar-
ter because of his top standing in
the poll, is apt to be replaced early
by Matuszczak-not that Evashev-
ski is an inferior player, but rather
that he is handicapped by shoulder
injury.
Halfbacks Tom Harmon of Michi-
gan and George Franck of Mime
sofa, both starters, are slated to
remain in the lineup.
The Stars yesterday named Dave
Rankin of Purdue their captain.
The All-Stars planned their first
workout in Soldier Field tonight
under the lights.
The Bears will practice in the big
stadium tomorrow.

Your Nations Capital is by way OF
becoming the capital of horseshoe
pitching. This one gathers from the
honors bestowed upon two of WASH
ington's leaders in the rapidly de-
veloping sport at the world tourna-
ment at Des Moines, Iowa, recently
concluded. Harry Woodfield was
elected president of the National
Horseshoe Pitchers Association and
Clayton c. Henson of Arlington,
Metropolitan District champion, first
vice president. Woodfield also is
vice chairman of the National A. A.
u. Horseshoe Committee.
At present, however, Mr.. Horse
shoes is concerned mostly with his
duties as promotional director OF
the National Capital Horseshoe
Pitchers Association, which will
have a busy hand in the 18th annual
Evening Star tournament for the
championships of Northern Virginia,
Southern Maryland, Washington and
the Metropolitan district.
Start Next Tuesday Night.
The 100-shoe qualification test for
the tournament will open next Tues
day night or the public parks courts
opposite the Commerce Building on
Fifteenth street NV. Entrants may
take the test anytime from 7:30 to
IL nightly from Tuesday through
Friday of next week. Match play
will begin the following week. All
trophies will be provided by The
Star and there will be no entry fee.
Every iron hipper in Washington
and nearby counties of Maryland
and Virginia is invited to compete,
regardless of ability. The qualifica-

pected, especially in the women's
division where attractive little Stella

Fox, 23o-pound captain, and Bling"

From Eastern he shared Ernie Nc
Carthy and Harry Nelson, 185 and
ITS, respectively. and Gonzaga gave
him Francis Reilly, 1876, and Charley
O'Connor, 1856.
Among the holdovers from last
year are Bill Garland. his best
blocking back; Dave Thatcher,
fair passer; Max Pot 'er, his best
end, and Bob Lanzilotti, a smart
guard. Another alumnus will be
Casey Dean, guard, who was out
last season because of illness. but
who was regarded in his freshman
year by Line Coach George Menke
as the most promising youngster on
the squad.
Not all of the rockies have had
football experience. some none at
all, but that does not feaze Cassen.
He can teach 'em if they want to
play. Paul Di Miglio, 185-pound
center: Big Bill Thomas, "Fawnsey"
Manilli and jim Petro, all of East
ern, fall in this category.
This is not the whole story, OF
course, merely brief outline, but it
is sufficient evidence to justify the
wide grin on Cassell's face. With
almost four teams at his command,
plenty of beef on the hoof and q
new, more aggressive attitude per-
meating the campus atmosphere.
Staff can ask himself what he has
to lose.
He didn't dare do that last year,
or the year before. L. F, A,

Staff Cassell pulls a disappearing
act on the press.
On American University's campus
the reports would be (a) he had
slowed away on China clipper;
(b) gone into the insurance business;
or (c) given up coaching entirely

Later the reason for Staff's un-
happy estate could be seen racing
like mad around the athletic field,
shouting and yelling in high glee.
Reporters with vivid imaginations
would write that A. U. had a foot

not be proved. The Eagles merely

This year skies are brighter over
