Tune Gu
For Hopkins Game

Catholic UniverSity's gridmen
had Coach Jan Jankowski on the
spot today. clamoring for more
contact work while Jankowski
backed off. fearing an injury to
a key player that might spoil the
Cards chances of beating Johns
Hopkins in their homecoming
game at Brookland Saturday.
I'm opposed to scrimmaging
after the season begins. especially
with manpower as scarce as it is
here" said the coach, But my
boys have insisted on it. I know
scrimmaging is more fun than
simply running through plays and
working on fundamentals, but we
shouldn't risk losing even one
man. We can't afford it,"
The squad won it's point, how
ever, and worked against Wilson
Teachers Tuesday and came right
back against Montgomery Junior
College yesterday with pleasing
results. Dan Killigrew, rangy
right halfback who will replace
ailing Gene Arrone in the start
ing lineup, showed good form re-
turning punts and catching passes,
while Bucky Ennis again spear
headed the attack.
The Cardinals feel that they
must make amends after blow
ing a 1921 decision to Randolph
Macon last week and that the
homecoming would be an appro-
pirate time. Johns Hopkins has
high-scoring outfit and 1t shapes
up as a wide open game.
