Hoyas Have Trouble
With Underdoq {. u.

Catholic University is proving
to be Georgetown's nemesis on the
sports scene. The Cards surprised
the Hoyas in baseball tiff last week
and yesterday upset the Hoya tennis
team, 6-3, at the Hilltop.
Georgetown previously had beaten
the Cards in a tennis match. The
Cards had two of their top men
missing in the first match. But
yesterday they proved that didn't
mean anything by winning without
Stan Levy, Bill Kifford and Bennett
Lyons, their top tnree men.
The Cards, Mason-Dixon Confer
ence champs, now have won 8 out Of
10 matches.
American University, meanwhile,

This may be our year." said
Chief George Marshall of the
Redskins. We're a cinch for
'49, but we may win this year.
The 1947 rockies will decide
where we finish"
The chief evidently had gotten
his calendars mixed and meant
the rockies of 1913, we said.
II do not" he retorted. II
mean the rockies we brought in
last year, which was 1947 on most
calendars. If they show the
form we expect we'll have win
ner. otherwise we may have to
wait a year, but the future looks
pretty bright right now
The chief hasn't spent too
much time at the branch office
for Indian affairs on Ninth street,
but he knows what gives with the
Tribe. And a warm. lazy day,
ideal for baseball, golf or tennis,
couldn't lure him away from
football.
You won't have to worry about
the line if those big fellows de-
liver the goods. People forget
that it takes a big man longer to
reach his peak, but that they last
longer once they arrive. Ernie
Williamson weighs 245 pounds
and he's fast. Demp Harris is
$50 and fast, too. They were
green last year and were out
foxed by more experienced play
ers. but you can't give up on
them yet. They could make q
big difference in our club.
Don Avery weighs 275 pounds"
he continued. Just think OF it
275 pounds. Imagine what he'd
do for us if he played the kind Of
football we know he's capable OF
playing? This will be Avery's
third year with the Redskins and
off what he showed toward the
end of last season, I think he'll

Marshall Keen on Redskins Outlook
This Nav Be Clubs Year. With e4e Success cneh He soys

end he added. divulging some
of Coach Edwards '48 strategy.
"They won't throw any long
passes over that fellows head"
With Jim PEBBLES working
steadily at end, instead of divid-
ing his time between that post
and tackle. Paul Mckee and Joe
Tereshinski smarter than last
season, the Skins seem we'll sup
piled for wingman, the chief
thought.
He touched on the keynote OF
the Redskins title hopes when he
mentioned pass defense. That's
where Howie Livingston. who was
obtained from the Giants, comes
in. plus the tackles. The tackles
will be prodded into rushing op-
posing passers more savagely next
season to shorten the time they
have for getting the ball away.
Then it'll be up to Livingston,
Taylor and the rest to see that
those long overhead shots don't
hit their mark.
AS for the football financial
situation, Marshall had not read
Curley Lambeau's recent outburst
from Green Bay to the effect that
the joy-ride was over for high
salaried gridmen.
"It's simple economics that a
mans security in anything, news
paper work, selling groceries or
football, depends on the success
of the business he works for" "
he pointed out. And when It
gets so the business doesn't make
money he loses his security. 1t
doesn't make any difference how
much they promise to pay him.
Do you know that of the 18 teams
in pro football last year only
eight made money or broke even?
But that has nothing to do
with our line. If we come up
with a good line the other clubs
had better take warning, be-

do all right. Don't forget, the
best tackle we had at the end OF
the season was pickup, John
Sanchez. He looked good in the
last four games, especially the So
minutes he put in against the
Cardinals, and we'll have him
from the start this time"
Marshall went right down the
line with his reasons why the
Redskins can win next season.
He pointed to Clyde Ehrhardt's
return at center, and to the i'm
provement expected at guard
with XII Aldrich and Fred Bo-
ensch moving in for the full term
to help Bill Gray and John
Steber.
And everybody knows we have
the best collection of ends in
Redskin history. I think Turks

New PAA Schedule To Nome---Sunday And Wednesday

SEATTLE, (H) - New Alaska schedules which will give major northern cities nonstop connec- , tions with Seattle, will go into ef- feet October 1, D. E. McMorran, regional traffic manager of Pan American Airways at Seattle an- nounced today.
 Ketchikan, Juneau and Fair banks each have been allocated a DC-4 clipper for round trip, direct flights to Seattle.
 "The new service will give these cities their own air connections with the States, independent of schedules or weather conditions elsewhere, McMorran said.
 Direct, round-trip flights to Ketchikan will be made three times weekly; to Juneau four times a week and to Fairbanks five weekly.
 In addition, the airline will maintain schedules stopping at all points, including Whitehorse and Nome. Schedules into Nome will be Sunday and Wednesday. There will be no Friday plane this week, the next plane into Nome will be Sunday, October 3.
 A special cargo and mail service will be operated three times week. ly to Fairbanks, supplementing the space available on daily passenger flights.
 "The same frequency of service will be maintained during the win ter slack season as during the peak summer months" McMorran said. Substantial winter fare reduc- tions of 25 per cent going into ef- feet October IS, should stimulate travel during this season."
