Hoyas Drill in Secret
las Harde|I Tells All
About Vi|Ianova

All the delightful nonsense Of
prewar collegiate football is back
with lis again. The final stage of
the transition from lean war years
to booming peacetime was noted
yesterday at Georgetown, where the
Hoyas posted secret practice"
warning for the first time. They
were running through top-drawer
stuff in preparation for Sundays
tiff with villanoya at Philadelphia.
Along with the "SP" came Mr..
Elmer P. CHap) Hardell, George
towns voluble football scout and
assistant coach, who cheerfully
spills all he knows after three or
four hours Of intensive third-degree
treatment. Hap took a peek at the
Wildcats against Holy Cross last
Saturday and yesterday blurted
right out that Villanova's colors
are navy blue and white. Beyond
that his memory became rather
vague and hazy.
The gent who can tell you Freddy
Footloose's time in a 40-yard trial
sprint Is years ago couldn't for the
life OF him remember whether the
left end had two arms or one, or
whether the Cats had any visible
weaknesses that Georgetown might
profit by.
The only possible conclusion from
yesterdays scrimmage was that Mr..
Hardell has more information on
Villanova than Pinkerton man can
get out, of a book and that Coach
Jack Hagerty is leaving no stone,
or guard, unturned to have the
Hoyas looking their best for the
game.
We mentioned the name Of Romeo
Capriotti to Hap and admitted he
seemed to have heard the name
some place. Cap" was touted as
the Cats best back and his first
effort against Navy netted is yards,
even though he was mi, red and
played only few minutes. We tried
to jar Hardell's memory With such
reminders as Ralph Pasquariello.
Bill Doherty, Bill Dost, Joe Rogers
and Steve Romanik. but he wouldn't
give, aside from agreeing that VII
lanova would be mighty tough to
beat and that If the aboYe boys
PLAYED he wouldn't be surprised.

|BIair-Fa|Is Church
TILT RescheduIed
|For Tomorrow

The interstate football game be-
tween Falls Church (Va) High and
Blair High Of Silver Spring, Md,
has been moved up from Friday to
tomorrow, and will be played at 3
o'clock at Meadowbrook. It's the
only high school game hereabouts
tomorrow, all others this week end
coming on Friday or Saturday.
Both schools have proof that the
scholastic football talent isn't
monopolized by the bigger city
schools. Falls Church, coached by
Gregory Wroniewicz, has won three
of four games this season, and has
a high scoring trio in Lewis Trombo
Mike Bruin and Bill Reeves. They
have had substantial part in the
Falls Church attack whic. has rolled
up Ill points to 13 for opponents.
Trombo so far holds the record
with three touchdowns in one after
noon, scored last week when his
team swamped Sherwood, 46-0. He's
a 165-pound, 16-year-old senior half
back who because of his exceptional
speed plays safety on defense
Reeves is a 175-pound, 18-year-old
senior quarterback and an excep-
tionally capable blocker, while Bruin
185-pound end is a star pass catcher
Blair's ace Is Sedie Bohlen, pass
ing, kicking and running fullback
He was missing because of an in
jured knee when Blair lost it's OPEN
ing game. but returned in time for
last weeks 1876 triumph over Fred
eS'ick (Md) High. He's big, smart
and powerful, and college scouts al
ready have their eyes on him.

George Washington will spot the
Wayne University Tarters an edge
in age and weight in the Colonials
first home game Saturday afternoon
in Grifith Stadium, but expect to
offset any shortcomings in the sta
tistics column by winning the ball
game by at least two touchdowns.
Coach Skip Stanley went over
scout reports on Wayne's TO defeat
at the hands of Western Reserve
last Saturday in Cleveland and was
not optimistic over G. WIS chances
despite Wayne's loss, but Stanley Is
the cautious type when 1t comes to
representations.
The Wayne game was played in q
downpour for all but the last two
minutes. Wayne previously defeated
Ohio Wesleyan, 1870, but lost to

Record Field of Pin Stars Seen
For Campbell Classic Sunday
By Ben McAIwee

One of the biggest yearly duckpin
events in the East is scheduled for
Capital drives this Sunday when
the Washington City Duckpin Asso-
citation stages the 21st annual How
ard Campbell Open with five-game
blocks in succession at Lafayette,
Lucky Strike and Colonial Village.
If the record entries of the two
recent major tournaments, the
Wolfe Memorial held at Hyattsville
and the Plaza Nom Winner at Batli-
more are criterions, the 16-year-old
mark of 81 contestants for the
country's oldest event of its kind
promises to be cracked wide open.
Last year the Campbell missed its
high entry mark by only two when
Bill Berry of Baltimore with near
record score of 2,058, which included
an all-time high game of 214, rolled
at Lucky Strike with six consecutive
spares, triumphed over a field of SIS.
For the first time in nearly two
decades flre-destroyed Convention
Hall will not be the scene of the
final and gruelling round in which
victory many times has hinged on
the last ball.
The winer. besides prize of $400,
will receive a gold medal donated by
the three alleys holding the classic.
The return of Joe Harrison to top
bowling form as attested by his
second high District League average
of 1898 for IS games and the bril-
liant 127-mark sported by Jack Tai
bert are two big reasons why the
pacesetting Hiser's Boulevard quint
holds two-game lead in the citys
fastest bowling circuit and tonight
will be seeking it's sixth straight vic
tory against the strong Bethesda
Bowling Center combination in q
match at Bethesda.
And by the same token two vet
.eran sharpshooters. Ell Geib with q
127-14 average and Bert Lynn with
1868. will be striving to help second
place Colonial Village stretch its
winning streak TO nine straight
games against College Park at Colo
nial Village. Boosting the circuit s
fourth high average of 1898, South
paw Al Cissel has been a potent
walloper for the squirting Villagers
who have came back strong after
being whitewashed on the opening
night by Boulevard.
Coming into his own as one of the
truly topf1ight Capital pinmen is
AL Terry who with 1918 for Is
games will lead the third-place
Brookland Recreations into battle
against Greenway at Brookland.
Setting a dazzling pace with top
average of l34-7, Paul Perkins will
head fourth-place King Pin against
Rosslyn at King Pin. Billy Stalcup
is the Virginians' big threat with
127-10. Owner of season record
scores Of ITS and All and third-high
average of 128-10, Marty Alexander
and his champion Hi-Skor team
mates tackle Lucky Strike at Lucky

Ierps Bank on Mont S
Passing 10 Salvage
Football Prestige

If the University of Maryland Is
to salvage something from a foot
ball season that has. been a tre-
mendous disappointment to date,
apparently it will be up to Tommy
Mont, the quarterback in the Terps'
T-formation, who has q 800 pass
completion average in three games.
Mont completed 16 of Is passes
for 104 yards in defeat against
North Carolina last week and he
tossed q touchdown pass for Mary
lands only score against Richmond
the week prior. He will bear the
brunt of Maryland's hopes against
v. P. I. Friday night at College
Park.
The Cumberland product and
former Army captain is far behind
his 1912 yardage pace when he
finished fifth in the Nation among
collegiate passers with 1,076 yards
gained in nine games, but his 1916
percentage is better. He has COM
pleted n out of As this year in
three games, and it is no secret
that Mont is not getting too much
protection on his passes and that
the pass receiving has been ragged.
Only two OF his passes have been
intercepted.
Mont probably will do most of
the kicking against the Gobblers as
when Tommy wasn't doing the
punting against North Carolina
last week. the Maryland kicks were
being blocked. That happened three
times and led to three Tarheel
scores.
The Terps will meet up with q
former teammate Friday in Harry
Walton, a v. P. l. back who played
three games with Maryland as q
freshman in 1912 before entering
the service. In addition Ralph
Beard, another Cumberland prod
uct and good friend of Mont, is
one Of the Gobblers' best backs. He
is a left-handed passer and left
footed kicker.
The v. P. I. team will arrive to-
morrow afternoon and will be fol-
lowed by a caravan of Tech rooters,
who with Washington and Balti-
more alumni will make up large
Gobbler roofing section.
