With D. f. Outfit

Against FIoherty's
Much Heavier Lot
BY BILL DISMER, Jr.

Looking for more success against
the Information than the last time
they encountered it, the Redskins
go up to Philadelphia today for the
first of two 194l meetings with a
young and light Eagle eleven
coached by that old college mentor,
Earle (Greasy) Neale.
The Redskins will shove off at
10 o'clock, eating breakfast on the
train, while a band of rooters-
which railroad officials estimate may
reach 1000 - will leave Union
Station some 40 minutes later
Game time is 2:30.
Because today's eXponents of the
T are not the Chicago Bears and
because % of Philadelphia's 33
players are rockies, the Redskins are
not expected to suffer the humilia-
ton visited upon them that cold,
dreary day here last December.
Eagles Improving Steadily.
Nevertheless, Neale is said to have
worked wonders with his first pro
team, which is reputed to be i'm
proving all the time. The Eagles
dropped their third game in four
starts week ago when the Giants
blanked EN- for the second time,
1910. Since then the Eagles have
scrimmaged twice in an effort to
iron out flaws and to better the
timing that the intricate system
requires.
Singularly, their scrimmages-un-
precedented for National League
teams after the regular season
begins-were duplicated by the
Redskins last Tuesday when Coach
Ray Flaherty ordered contact work
during a campaign for the first time
since he became the Indians chief
tain in 1886. AS result, two
geared-up ball teams should take
the field for the opening kickoff.
With eight freshmen slated to be

who used to play with the Redskins,
weighs 225 and is their heaviest
starting regular.
Philly Ends Are Light.
Neale's two tackles, Fibner of
Kentucky and RagaZZo of Western
Reserve, weigh no more than 223
each, while his two guards, Cont
from Bucknell and De Fillipo from
Villanova, are 202 and 2O7. re-
spectively. AS for the ends. they're
the lightest of all-Humbert of
Richmond being listed at only 179
and Krieger of Dartmouth as 1877.
Philadelphia's starting backfeld is
composed of Tommy Thompson of
Tulsa, a third-year man who does
most of the Eagles passing; Len
Foots) Barnum, obtained by the
Eagles from the Giants; Rookie Dan
De Saints from little Niagara and
Sam Bartholomew, TenneSsee's ex-
ceptional fullback last year.
For reserves, Philadelphia has
such 1910 college stars as Bob Suff-
ridge, Tennessee's all l. America
guard; Yves McAfee Of Duke, brother
of the Bears more-famed George;
Bob Bjorklund. a center from Min
nesota, and three Georgetown stars
Jim Castiglia, Joe Frank and Lou
Ghecas.
The Redskins again will lead off
with Frank Filchock's team. with
Sammy Baugh's combination taking
over at the start of the second
period. Baugh, incidentally, will
leave his mates for day or two
after the game, having received per-
mission to fly down to SWeetwater,
Tex, to make the acquaintance of
his ueek-old son.

MANHATTAN. Kans., Oct. 18.-
Oklahoma's celebrated "a" forma-

An air-minded Randolph-Macon

today to down the Washington Col

coming crowd.
1t was Isenberg, Virginia quarter

tacks sustained by his accurate

All Perform Out Of
Town This Week
None Faces Easy Going;
Georgetown Eager
For Boston Scalp

District gridirons this week will
be as deserted as Goldsmith's vii
lage with all teams hitting the high
way for important games on foreign
fields.
Briefly. the lineup reads like this:
Maryland at Penn; Georgetown at
Boston College; George Washington
VS.. William snd Mary at Norfolk:
American U. VS.. Allegheny at Mead
vile, Pa.
There isn't a soft touch in the
crowd. Penn is bidding for its Sec
ond consecutive Ivy League crown.
William and Mary, despite its crush
ing defeat by Navy, still is potent
aggregation. Boston College has an
other big, rough outfit and scoring
punch. Allegheny is the only eleven
that will not be the choice over a
District team and the little Penn
sylvanians always are tough.
Terrapins Are Underdogs.
This will be Maryland's fifth game
with Penn and while the Quakers
will be top-heavy favorites over the
Terps it may be interesting Penn
holds a 81 edge in the series as a
result of last seasons crushing 51-0
rout, but that is the only game in
which the Terps failed to distinguish
themselves. Maryland's 80 upset
victory in 1923 and its game but
losing 1921 slugfest of 1887 have
been the standout games thus far
and the memory of them makes
Penn wary.
Georgetown, Of course, rather
would hang one on B. c. than eat
It'll be long time before the Hoyas
forget last years thrill-drenched
1913 defeat which snapped their
23-game winning streak and they
are out to square accounts this time.
Jack Hagerty's men evidently hit
their stride against G. w. Friday
night and should be in high gear
when they ride into Beantown this
week.
Colonials Meet Potent Foe.
George Washington, unable to get
going in four games, has hopes of
taking the highly regarded Indians
into camp for their first Southern
Conference victory. William and
Mary is potent outfit despite it's
opening game defeat by Navy and
G. w. will have to show a lot of
improvement to win.
American can expect a good fight
from Allegheny although this is not
one of the Gators best squads. The
Eagles have been an unpredictable
lot this season, rolling up yardage
in impressive style but failing to
score in proportion If they do find
a scoring punch they'll be hard to
beat in their league.
