Hogerty Sees Hope for Hoyos
In Use of New StreumIinedT
By Lewis F. Atchison

Georgetown's first postwar foot
ball team, which goes on the as
sembly line April 10 with the start
Of spring practice, may not have as
many triple-threat halfbacks, 200
pound tackles and sundry other ma
terial as Chief Engineer Jack
Hagerty would like to- see, but will
have T formation that is a coach's
dream.
It's streamlined T, thought up
by MiSsouri's Don Faurot, without
the Katzenjammer signals of Clark
ShaughneSSy's version, with less lost
motion, but declared to have just as
much piston-packing power.
Il saw motion pictures of it while
stationed at the Navy's pref1ight
school at Athens, Ca" Hagerty was
telling us, land if I wasn't a college
man I'd say it was the nuts Come
to think of it, it's the nuts anyway
I'm completely sold on it, It's sim
plicity is downright startling, but it
gets results, and with our setup it
seems to be just the thing for US"
Three Basic Plays in System.
AS Hagerty explained it, the sys-
tenn has three basic plays and the
quarterback doesn't do as much
spinning as in the regular T. If the
play is to the right, the halfback on
that side always goes into the line
and the quarterback moves that
way, giving the ball or taxing with
it. If the play starts to the. left, the
halfback on that side goes into the
line-it never varies, and the quar-
terback starts in that direction.
1T doesn't have as much decep-
ton as the standard T." Jack ex-
planned, but it keeps the other
team guessing, and if you can keep
1t guessing you'll gain ground. The
tackle and the fullback have to
commit themselves on every play.
That's its strongest point. And with
its split line we can use our spread
plays to advantage. With this
formation I think we'll be 100 per
cent stronger next season than we

Chapter Three of the Bee Bee
Washington Jimmy Mandell fistic

scheduled 10-round fight. Bee Bee,

severe cut over his left eye. At that
time there even was some objection
to the fight on the ground that Man.

ARMY WILL FACE
PROPERTY CHARGE
Royal Says "Not Guilty"
To Count OF "Wanton De-
struction" OF Goods

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-R
Kenneth C. Royal, Undersecre-
tary of War, said Thursday the War
Department is prepared to meet
head on any charge that the
Army has been guilty Of "wanton
destruction of property"
Instead of destroying surplus
goods which might have civilian
or military usefulness, he said, eff
anything, it is spending too much
money and too many man-hours to
protect property of doubtful
value.'
Troops First
The War Department has au-
thorized General Macarthur to
snip back civilian type goods from
the Pacific. theater now that the
shipping situation has eased,
Royal disclosed. Until recently, he
said, it had been necessary to pur-
sue policy of bringing the boys
back and leaving the property
there"
Royal conceded in a statement
prepared for the House Expendi-
lures committee that naturally,
there have been cases of improper
destruction. There always will be
some men in any large organiza-
ton who will overlook regulations
or, perhaps, ignore regulations.
Exag
He said the War Department in
vestigated all complaints and
found "most are grossly exagger-
ated."
He cited the case of one witness
who said he saw case Of type
writer's thrown overheard from a
ship. The investigation, Royal as
serted, showed that what actually
went into the water was a packing
case stencilled 'typewriters' but
actually containing only shipboard
sweepings.
Not Authorized
The Army has not heretofore
authorized the abandonment of
any property that has civilian util-
ity," Royal said, Except in the
interest of military security, ma
tional defense, or public health
and safety.
"Even in the case of demilitari-
zation, usable components are re-
moved and those parts which are
needed are restored to stocks.
Those parts which have civilian
utility are declared surplus. The
residue is not destroyed, it is sold
as scrap.
He said however 1--WE know that
the time will come when property
will have to be abandoned in order
to get the men home and in order
to save excessive costs of care and
handling. This situation may be al
most upon us in the Pacific"
To meet it, Royal said, General
Macarthur has been authorized to
return new or serviceable civilian
| type items which are excess in his
theater. Until recently the shipping
shortage and crowding of port and
rail facilities had made this i'm
practicable, Royal explained.
