HONOR MARSHAL FOCH POWERFUL GEORGIA TECH ELEVEN Gold Sword, Gift of all Jesuit Institutions in America, and Honorary Degree of Doctor of Canon and Civil Law Awarded to Marshal Foch Wednesday. Yesterday afternoon in the quadrangle of the College before one of the most distinguished gatherings ever assembled at the University, the Sword of Honor, a gift of the Jesuit Universities and Colleges of the country, was pre- sented to Marshal Foch, and the degree of Doctor of Canon and Civil Laws was conferred upon him by the University. Included among the several hundred guests who were present were the Am- bassadors and Ministers of all the leading nations of the globe, members of the Cabinet, Senators, members of Congress, and representatives of all the Jesuit Universities, Colleges, and Schools. The quadrangle was packed to over- flowing when the procession of notables entered at 3:15 o'clock. Following the colors were the Very Reverend Provin- cials of the Jesuit Provinces of the coun- try : Very Rev. Joseph H. Rockwell, S. J., of the Maryland-New York Province; Very Rev. P. F. O'Gorman, S. J., of the New England Province; Very Rev. Emilie Mattern, S. J., of New Orleans, La., and Very Rev. Francis Dillon, S. J., of Portland, Ore. Then entered the orator of the oc- casion, Dr. Ernest A. Le Place, A. B. '80, A. M. '87, LL D. '95, who was fol- lowed by the poet of the reception, Dr. Conde B. Pallen, A. B. '80, A. M. '83, LL. D. '96. The Regents of the University then en- tered, followed by the Guests' Marshal. The guests of the occasion entered in the following order: Members of the Cabinet, Ambassadors and Ministers of foreign governments, Senators and Rep- resentatives, and the Commissioners of the District of Columbia. The Faculty Marshal led the Profes- sors and Assistant Professors of the Uni- versity and the Assisting Delegates of the various Universities and Colleges. When all had been assembled Marshal Foch, escorted by Admiral William S. Benton, U. S. N, and General Frank Mc- Intyre, U. S. A., entered amid a fanfare of bugles. The opening event of the occasion was the presentation of the Sword of Honor to Marshall Foch in behalf of the Jesuit Universities and Colleges of America by the Very Reverend Joseph H. Rockwell, S. J., D. D. The Marshal accepted the sword, followed by the playing of the French National anthem by the Military Band from Fort Meyer. The orator of the occasion, Dr. Ernest A. La Place, then delivered in French the "Discours de Felicitations au Mar- shal Foch, Ancien Eleve du College des Jesuites de Metz." The Ode of Felicita- tion by Conde B. Pallen was then deliv- ered. The President of the University, the Rev. John B. Creeden, S. J., conferred the degree of Doctor of Canon and Civil Laws upon Marshal Foch because of "the wonderful example of supernatural faith which the Marshal has displayed, so par- ticularly brilliant in a world darkened by materialism." Marshal Foch made a few remarks of gratitude and thanks for his most gra- cious reception. The assembly then sung "Sons of Georgetown" and the ceremony was con- cluded by the singing of "The Star Span- gled Banner." The sword, which was presented to Marshal Foch as the gift of the Jesuit College of the country, is a very beautiful one. The sword is chased in green, yellow and red gold, with an eagle triumphant surmounting the hilt. On one side France is represented, there being the shield of France, the medallion of St. Clements (Marshal Foch's college) and the Mar- shal's motto, "In memoriam, in spem." On the reverse side is the shield of the United States, the medallion of St. Ig- natius, and a list of the colleges which contributed the sword. The handle bears twined oak and laurel wreaths, bound by a ribbon, upon which is inscribed, "Fides, Amor Patria, Scientia"—Faith, Patriot- ism, and Knowledge. On the guard are the arms of Tarbes, Marshal Foch's birthplace, and the arms of Metz, where he gained his glory in the World War. Among the several Senators and Con- gressmen who were present included Sen- ator David I. Walsh, of Massachusetts, and Henry F. Ashhurst, of Arizona, both of whom have received honorary degrees from the University. The Cabinet was represented by Attorney-General Henry F. Daugherty and Secretary of Labor Davis. Among the delegates representing for- eign nations at the function were Ambas- sadors and Ministers from the leading nations of the world: France, Ambassa- dor J. J. Jusserand and Prince Beam et de Chalais, Commandant of the French High Commission; Spain, Senor Don Juan Riano y Gayangos, Ambassador; Russia, Mr. Boris Bakhmeteff, who for- merly represented the government of the Czar; Chile, Senor Don Beltran Mathieu, Ambassador; Argentine, Baron de Car- tier de Marchienne, Ambassador; Peru.

Eliminated From Race For Eastern Football Honors By Crushing Defeat at Hands of Alexander's Yellow Jackets. Georgetown has toppled from the heights. Her chance of finishing the season undefeated was blasted after six consecutive victories when the Golden Tornado, the pride of the Southland football world, threw the lie in the faces of the critics and experts and took the Hilltopers' measure in a bitter contest on Grant Field, Atlanta, Georgia, handing them the short end of a 21-7 score. The defeat Saturday was the third in as many starts for Georgetown. For the past three years she has journeyed down to Atlanta only to be turned back in her attempt to wrest the Southern football honors from the "Yellow Jackets." The game was a revelation. All the advance information pointed to a Georgetown victory by at least two touchdowns. Tech had been taken into camp by the powerful Penn State eleven a few weeks before and it was generally thought that her spirit was broken. At no time during the present season had she shown the brand of football for which her teams have become famous. It was Georgetown's year. At last revenge was to be had. It was all a mistake, however, for Tech went into the game determined to win and before the boys from the North came to their senses she was well on her way to their goal line. The big outstanding feature of the Georgetown team was the playing of Captain Jack Flavin. He was every- where on the defense. He was fighting every minute, backing up both end and line plays and breaking up passes when they were thrown to his side of the field. His was easily the best work any back in the South has shown this year. Captain Harlan, playing fullback for Tech, had the greatest day of his career. It was his next to last game and he went to his work with a vengeance. Time and again he tore holes in the George- town line, being stopped from making long gains only by Flavin's brilliant tackling. During the game the Tech captain carried the ball thirty seven times through the Georgetown line for an average gain of five yards. Carl Wertz, the Georgetown center, who was prevented from starting the game by injuries, was rushed into the fray late in the game in an attempt to stop the onrushes of the Tech team. Incapacitated as he was with the little finger of his left hand encased in a big cast, it must be said to his credit that he stemmed the tide for the moment and gains through his position were halted by his steady and aggressive work. His entrance into the game seemed to instill new life into the fast-fading strength of the Hilltoppers and they worked with a new energy that halted the powerful Tornado offense. Wertz was paid a high tribute by Atlanta sporting writers and his excellent sportsmanship in shielding opponents from contact with his heavy cast finger aroused the ad- miration and respect of the Tech sup- porters. Jim Sweeney, who had been out of the game for a week previous to the contest with a bad shoulder, displayed a fine brand of football. He seemed to be the only Georgetown forward to solve the puzzling shift of the Yellow Jackets and time after time he broke up the formation which was being used so ef- fectively against the blue and gray. Wertz was the bright feature in the tangled and disrupted Georgetown for- ward line of which so much had been expected and so little accomplished. Only in the first quarter of the game did the massive Hilltop line display any of its prowess. Twice in this period the charges of the Tech battering rams were halted, once on the one-yard line, and those who saw the work of the linesmen in this period were amazed at their showing in the third quarter when pandemonium seemed to break loose among them and Tech counted twice by straight line plunges. Flavin's punting, though not up to his usual good standing, was far ahead of that of the Tech punter. The Hilltop offense could not seem to get started and the swift running defense of the Yellow Jackets raised havoc with the highly touted sccring machine of the Northerners. Little or no gain was made by the Georgetown backfield and they were forced to punt time after time when two or three line plunges were of no avail. Finally, bewildered by the overwhelming bulldog tenacity and fight- ing attack of the Yellow Jackets the Hilltoppers gave up their plan of line plunging and end running and resorted to an aerial attack which proved but lit- tle improvement on their former style of play. Pauly Byrne, recovering a fumble by Tech on the 15-yard line, made the longest run of the year for a touchdown when he dashed 90 yards for Georgetown's only touchdown. He was aided by excellent defensive work on the part of Wertz, who took care of the speedy Harlan who had given chase to Byrne. He kept him out of the play by the fastest run of the day.

U. Eliminated From Race For Eastern Football Honors By Crushing Defeat at Hands of Alexander's

Yellow Jackets.

Georgetown has toppled from the heights. Her chance of finishing the season undefeated was blasted after six consecutive victories when the Golden Tornado, the pride of the Southland football world, threw the lie in the faces of the critics and experts and took the Hilltopers' measure in a bitter contest on Grant Field, Atlanta, Georgia, handing them the short end of a 21-7 score.

THE HAT OF A COLLEGE MAN.

Oh, I've witnessed the ruins of Egypt, And the scraps of a pulverized Rome,

And the declaration and cruel vitiation Of cities abroad and at home.

I've gazed on extinguished Pompeii, And the stubble that once was called

Troy, But no ruin, by heck, can equal the

wreck Of the hat of a gay college boy.

For a lid, to be truly collegiate, Must have wrinkles and grooves and

a tear, And unless it is creasy and sloppy and

greasy, It's not at all decent to wear.

The havocs of fire I've regarded, And the ravages wrought by the war.

The mire and the mud in the wake of a flood,

And a thousand catastrophes more.

Every eyesore on earth I've discovered, Distortions that mar and alloy,

But they never can dare to hope to com- pare

With the fez on a gay college boy. With Apologies to R. F. C.

G.U. STUDENT SOLDIERS MAKE FINE SHOWING

Hilltop Military Unit Commended By Many for Appearance

on Armistice Day.

The Georgetown R. O. T, C. added another honor to its already enviable record last Friday when, as representa- tives of the college men of the country, the unit paraded in the memorial serv- ices in honor of the Unknown American Dead. Swinging in behind the picked regulars and marines, the Georgetown unit won the praise and admiration o; all who witnessed the march. Although the unit did not present the finished ap- pearance of the regulars, yet, in the opinion of many of the ex-service men and hardened veterans who lined the route of march, Georgetown was not very far behind them in carrying off honors for the day.

Officers from the War Department, especially those interested in the develop- ment of the R. O. T. C., were very much pleased with the excellent showing made by the unit.

Following the regular line of march the unit paraded down the Avenue afte falling into line at Sixth street. At the White House the unit passed in review before the President and then continued on to Georgetown. Thence the parade crossed the Georgetown Bridge, through Fort Myer, and on to Arlington Is a tional Cemetery, where the unknown here was interred in the Memorial Amphitheater. The unit took up a posi- tion directly west of the Amphitheater for the services.

Company "C," which had won the competition drill on the day previous, had the honor of carrying the colors. It was commanded by Cadet Captain John F. O'Neill. Companies "A" and "B," commanded by Cadet Captains Robert E. Morgan and Josepn A. Little, f< lowed. Cadet Major Joseph A. Mc- Donough commanded the battalion.

' Major Hobson and the other oflir of the unit were gratified by the excel- lent work done by the unit and the real spirit that the men put into their ef- forts to maintain Georgetown's right to be listed as a distinguished college by the War Department.

U.-GA. TECH GAME GIVEN PLAY BY PLAY

Over Four Hundred Students and Members of Faculty Hear

Results of Battle.

Fully four hundred students of the college and down-town schools, with members of the faculty also in attend- ance, heard the play-by-play account of the Georgetown-Georgia Tech game as it came over the wire from Atlanta last Saturday afternoon in Ryan Gymnasium. Though the enthusiasm of those present was not as marked as during the Holy Cross game, due to the way the game was progressing, yet the hope that tn.. Hilltoppers would come through finally put everyone in the right spirit. The student body made frequent outbursts of enthusiasm as favorable reports of their team's doings were given out by Varsity Cheer Leader Joe McDonough and when it was announced that Pauly Byrne had made the record run of the year for a touchdown the gym fairly rocked with the tumult. The wire was conducted by THE HOYA in conjunction with the Senior class and it proved a marked success.

The orchestra, made up of W. Moran, Tom Corbett, Tom Morrissey, Jim Cos- tello, Richard McDonough, V. Downey, and O. Atkinson, played all afternoon, and rendered many popular up-to-date selections. During the half F. B. Jor- dan, '25, and Santo Sotilli, '24, staged a wrestling bout that proved very inter- esting. Mr. Jordan, of the New York Athletic Club, is the metropolitan wrestling champion at 145 pounds, and the treasurer of the new wrestling club that has been organized here. In spite of the worthiness of his opponent the Sophomore offered stiff resistance and it was several minutes before he was downed. John Feeney did some flying somersaults that made everybody gasp, and Jack McGowan finished off the program with his peerless jigging.

Henry Brennan, of the Senior class, is the winner of the carton of Camels to be given out by THE HOYA this week. Mr. Brennan is the holder of subscrip- tion No. 53. The Camels may be ob- tained from Michael J. Bruder, busi- ness manager.

ANNUAL JUNIOR PROM TO BE HELD FEB. 21st.

Premier Social Function of the Year Expected to Surpass

All Others.

The annual Junior Prom which is a feature of the social season at George- town will be held this year on the eve of Washington's Birthday, February 21, 1922, according to the plans being made for the occasion by the committee. Chairman James F. Rutledge has an- nounced the following men of the Junior Class to assist him: Arthur Meah of Connecticut. William McGuire of Wash- ington, D. C, James Grove of Mary- land, Thomas White of Ohio, and Fran- cis J. Conway of Michigan.

Junior Proms in the past have been very successful and from present indi- cations this year's affair will not onlv be as successful as previous ones but will prove to be one of the best held in recent years. The committee in charge are working hard in preparation for the affair and are leaving no stone unturned to insure its success. Coming just be- fore the Lenten season sets in and being the night before a holiday, the date for the prom is an appropriate one and the committee has made a ten-strike in de- ciding upon this night. As yet the place for the affair has not been decided upon but it is expected that Rauscher's, the setting of so many successful George- town social functions, will be chosen.

THE H O Y A

STATE LAW CLUBS TO BE ORGANIZED

Men From Every State in Union Appointed by Dean Fegan

to Start Work.

Sensing the growing demand for a thorough knowledge of the Code Law and Procedure of the individual state in which the graduated .student desires to en- ter practice, Assistant Dean Fegan has initiated the plan of organizing State Law Clubs, the purpose of which is to overcome the difficulties heretofore expe- rienced by students of this department. Despite the fact that Georgetown law- yers have made an enviable record in the States where they are located, it is an open secret that the laws and code pro- visions of the different states are vastly variant. One may readily realize the ut- ter impossibility and futility of an at- tempt to examine the codes of each of . the Slates with thoroughness and em- phasis.

With these facts in mind, the organiza- tion of State Law Clubs is now well un- der way, the following men having been appointed by the Assistant Dean to carry out the well defined purpose:

Ward McCarthy, District of Colum- bia; M. Isaacson. Maine; Paul B. Mc- Carthy, New Hampshire; Proctor H. Page, Vermont; John J. Burke, Massa- chusetts; J. C. Blackall, Connecticut; T. H. Gardiner, Rhode Island; Jos. J. Hes- ter, New York; Jos. A. Cantrel, New Jersey; C. E. Royer, Pennsylvania; R. S. Bogeley, Maryland; S. K. Shipe, Vir- ginia; Walter Wheatley, West Virginia; John H. Fritts, North Carolina; Wm. T. Goggin, Ohio; Victor S. Mersch, In- diana; Harry Flanders, Illinois; H. C. Beake, Michigan; Geo. M. Hanley, Wis- consin; Wm. H. Fallon, Minnesota; J. W. K. Hood, South Carolina; S. A. San- born, Florida; Chas. C. McCall, Ala- bama; Wm. A. Welsh, Georgia; B. J. Voorheies, Louisiana; R. P. Huff, Mis- sissippi; John J. Cooney, Kentucky; L. M. Gardiner, Tennessee; John G. Bowen, Texas; B. B. Patterson, Arkansas; C. S. Carson, Kansas; Thos. W. Leasure, Ok- lahoma; Lloyd W. Holmes, Missouri; Roy S. Ramsey, Nebraska; D. R. Wol- verton, Iowa; M. T. Donoghue, Mon- tana; Jas. F. Brodie, North Dakota; R. L. Neary, South Dakota; Thos. E. Leavey, California; Norman E. Kane, Utah; P. S. Hopkins, Wyoming; How- ard F. Brecht, Washington; Burton G. Henson, Idaho; J. E. Stewart, Colorado; Thos. P. Randall, Arizona; David Che- ney, New Mexico; J. Q. Ronnow, Ne- vada.

In connection with the work, the Rev. W. Coleman Nevils, dean of the College, is mapping out a plan whereby a George- town alumni association will be formed in each state, so as to bring about greater cooperation between the members of the Alumni and the University. It is pro- posed that the students be made associate members of the state alumni clubs so as to enjoy privileges when home for the holidays.

Witb tbe Debaters

The Philodemic Debating Society has chosen from its members the four men that are to contend for the Merrick medal. Every year the outstanding de- bate that is held at the College is the contest for the prize offered by Howard T. Merrick. This year promises to be no exception and every one of the men are determined to win. Those who will take part this year are Joseph A. Mc- Gowan of Indiana, John S. McCann of Maine, Sylvan J. Pauly of Montana, and Robert E. Ward of Illinois. The alter- natives are Joseph A. McDonough of New York, and Robert E. Ward of Kentucky. Last year this honor was won by Leo J. Casey in what proved to be a hotly contested debate. The merit of the Philodemic men named this year is well known and the standard of previ- ous years is certain to be upheld.

Alumni Subscriptions Slow In Coming In—More Ex-

Alumni subscriptions to the Athletic Association are still coming in very slow and during the past two weeks less than a score of graduates purchased tickets. The members of the Athletic Asociation are confident, however, that the alumni will do their bit and come through in loyal fashion. It was at the suggestion of the alumni body that the football coaching staff was increased this year and it was the hope of the A. A. that its members would gladly respond to the appeal for funds to help defray the heavy expense.

The following members of the alumni body subscribed recently: Albert H. Pike, New York City; Hugh J. Fegan, Washington, D. C.; Dr. Joseph Mc- Carthy, Washington, D. C.; Oswald C. McCarthy, Geneva, X.

A GREAT PEOPLE.

The Georgetown football team, with a number of its supporters, was in At- lanta last week-end for its game with Georgia Tech.

The students of that school and the citizens of Atlanta were more than kind to them. They were considered as guests and treated as such. Nothing seemed to be too good for a Georgetown man. They were invited to dances and other affairs and several of the frater- nities sent invitations to the boys to come out to dinner and even to stay at the fraternity house while in Atlanta.

We had often heard of "Southern hospitality,'' but never before realized that such a thing really existed or its full significance. The people in Atlanta seemed to take pleasure in making sac- rifices for our comfort.

Another thing about our trip that was very noticeable was the way in which the Tech students took the victory. Before the game they were rather despondent and did not hope to win. In view of this fact we fully expected to be re- minded quite frequently that we had lost. The direct opposite was true. The sub- ject was rarely mentioned in our pres- ence unless we brought it up, when they would seek to change the topic of conversation. Not one of them gloated over the fact that we had been beaten. This is rather a remarkable fact when one considers the number of students at that institution.

They are good winners, these Tech students. It is a pleasure to deal with them and we are sorry that we see so little of them.

If the fates decree that Georgetown must lose there is no other team in the country she would rather bow to than these gentlemen from Georgia Tech.

The Bottom of the Well Georgetown has failed; failed utterly. Those words are hard and will grate on the nerves of many a

loyal Georgetown man. But the facts are written, and there is no use of our trying to blind ourselves to the truth, however galling it be.

Georgetown's big chance to attain to fame in the football world came last Saturday. Had she beaten Georgia Tech the season would have been a great success. She didn't.

Great praise is due the Atlantans for the wonderful feat they accomplished. They entered the game with everything set against them. They were playing a stronger team and told that they couldn't win. Yet they did this very thing, in a way that commanded the admiration and respect of Georgetown and all those who witnessed the game. They outplayed, outgen- eraled, and what hurts more than we like to admit, outfought the Georgetown team.

There is no rancor in defeat when it is accompanied with the knowledge that your best efforts have been expended. The best that one has is all that any man can give.

We have seen the Georgetown team in its various games this year. Every game has been won largely by the fighting spirit of the players. That same spirit, sad to say, was absent last Saturday.

After the game it was our pleasure to meet Captain Judy Harlan, to whom must be given the bulk of Tech's glory. After talking with him for a few moments we knew why Georgetown had lost. With him the football game was of prime importance, the greatest thing in his life. Everything else was secondary. He and the rest of Tech's great team went out on Grant Field last Saturday to either win or die in the attempt. No team with that spirit will be beaten. Eleven men, willing to die rather than lose will beat any team they meet.

ft is not our intention or desire to detract from Tech's victory. Her team played a great game and deserved to win. It is doubt- ful in our minds whether Georgetown at her best, or any other team, could have beaten the Tornado last Saturday.

We do, however, wish to express our discontent at the show- ing the Georgetown players made. Had they played the game we know they are capable of they would have been a credit to their school, and Tech would have had a far harder time.

THE HOYA wishes to ask the members of the Georgetown football team a few questions and make a few statements on points it has noticed.

Have you observed the training rules? Have you made any attempt to do so when you thought that you were not being watched? Have you followed the excellent example of your captain? He played one of the most brilliant games of his career and left the field after everyone else had gone, his head bowed, his heart broken. Are you pulling with him and helping him to make a success? Are you letting newspaper flattery go to your head? Did you place the petty comforts of the trip above the main objective—a victory over Georgia Tech? Did you let your selfish inclinations rule you against your better judgment? And, more important than all the rest, did you place yourself above your college? You are playing football for Georgetown, not for yourself, and until every man on the squad realizes this Georgetown will not have a truly great team.

These are points that you football men would do well to con- sider. Anyone who on reflecting finds himself guilty and does not intend to change his ways would do Georgetown a great favor by resigning from the squad. The sooner the better.

Tonight you leave for Boston. The game Saturday will be a hard one, and you will have to do your utmost if you are to win.

The student body is thoroughly disappointed with you. You have failed at a crucial moment, through your own fault. It is up to you to change this condition.

If ever you meet a stronger team let it be said, if necessary, that you were outplayed or outgeneraled; but outfought, never.

GETTING SUPPORT. For a great number of years the peo-

ple of Washington have not been sup- porters of the Georgetown footbad team. Many explanations were given lor this deplorable fact, and a g n any things done to change the - tion. None were success ml, and succeeding season would see the popu- lace of Washington attending the £ only to cheer for the visiting team.

At the beginning of the year we had an interview with the president of the Athletic Association, in which he the statement that he was of the opinion that Washington was a far better sport- ing city than it was given credit for being. He said, "Give them a real team, one that fights fair and hard, one that wins, and they will get behind it.''

He was right. Those who have ob- served the crowds at the games closely have seen a gradual change come over them. At first they were as firmly against Georgetown as ever. As the season progressed, however, their sen- timents gradually changed. Instead of pulling against the Georgetown tea. they have begun to take a pride m its victories. They have come to consider the Georgetown team as their team. When one of the players is hurt they are as anxious for his welfare as the coaches themselves.

On the way to the park, instead of hearing, "How hard do you suppose Georgetown will be beaten?" the crowd now says, "Our team ought to win t>y at least three touchdowns."

When the team went down to Tech last Thursday many Washingtonians were just as anxious and confident of victory as the Georgetown students themselves.

Rather a remarkable change. Not un- usual, however. Any crowd loves a win- ner. Make yourself a king and the masses will cheer for you every time.

To get back to the main point, how- ever, Georgetown has accomplished something. For years, ways and means have been considered to get the backing of Washington people. This year that same support came naturally as George- town put out a winning team.

The big thing is to keep this support and strengthen it. Experience has taught Georgetown that there is only one way that this can be accomplished.

Therefore, let the Athletic Association make every effort to get big football teams to come to Washington next year as we will put out a team of high caliber.

Great results will follow. Sporting Washington is eager for an excuse to cheer for Georgetown. It is up to Georgetown to give them this excuse.

THOSE FRESHMAN RULES. Here at Georgetown, before our very

eyes, is being enacted a huge farce. It has been decreed by the heads of

the University that it is a good thing to have certain rules for the Freshmen.

The enforcement of these rules is left to the Sophomore class who appoint a vigilance committee for that purpose.

This committee, let us say, has been more than lax in the execution of its duty. The Freshmen are making no pretense at living up to the rules. And this vigilance committee stands idly by, yawns, and does nothing.

No law will ever be lived up to or respected unless there is a power behind it. Half-dead laws are worse than no laws at all. If these Freshman rules are not good laws, let's not have them. But until then they must be obeyed. No use allowing the new men to make a joke of a Georgetown custom.

The student council should "get aboard" the Sophomore vigilance com- mittee and find out what is wrong.

1 f its members find it impossible to carry out the duties oi their office, then the Seniors will be obliged to enforce these rules.

John W. Brittingham, who lias been confined to the Garfield Hospital with scarlet fever for several weeks, returned to school last week.

Many fine compliments were paid t i the members of the R. O. T. C. for then- showing in last Friday's Armistice Day parade in honor of the unknown dead. The Hilltop .student soldiers showed the result of careful training and man like regulars over the long route.

The following committee has been ap- pointed to arrange for a smoker by the Junior class: Leo Vacarro, Clemens Sossons, Leo Roscekiewicz, Albert Kerchner, John Roniwebber and Thomas A. Morrissey. The committee elected Mr. Sossons chairman.

Michael Donahue, drill for the Georgetown military unit,

was also another conspicuous figu the parade. The popular "Sergt. Mike"

1 the infantry branch of the service in the parade, and some of the students who were onlookers were more interested in seeing him than they were about seeing President Harding or Gen Pershing.

The Freshmen and Sophomores are scheduled to meet next Monday after- noon in their annual game. There has been an absence of inter-class and inter- section football games on Sunday morn- ings which were so popular last year. Why not have them this year? The season is still young.

The Georgetown Preps, which have had a successful season, will close their second Saturday when they line up against the Hilltop freshmen. Coach Harry Sullivan is confident that his charges will finish the season with a victory and he has been working them hard all week in preparation for the game which will be played here.

John Nee, a day scholar, holder o' ticket No. 71, was the lucky winner of the trip to Atlanta, Ga., to see the Georgetown-Tech game. The raffle was conducted by the Freshman class, the proceeds going to help defray expenses for football equipment. Jimmy Mulli- gan, of this city, an old Georgetown grad, drew out the winning number.

No finer exhibition of school spirit was ever seen at Georgetown than last Monday when the team returned to this city. The entire student body met the members of the team at Union Station and accorded them a tremendous recep- tion. The tumult was even greater than the return of the team from Holy Cross where they were victorious over the Purple. Monday, returning defeated, they were given such a reception as to cause onlookers to think that it wa; victor returning.

Xow that the cold weather has put tin damper on tennis and other outdoor minor sports, boxing and wrestling should come into its own. These two sports which were recently begun again at the Hilltop are sure to achieve popu- larity. Anyone interested in boxing or wrestling should see Bob Morgan of Senior and join the club which has been organized for the promotion of these two sports.

New Englanders will turn out in thousands next Saturday to see the bat- tle between Georgetown and Boston College at Braves' Field, the National League baseball park of Boston. The game has aroused more than usual inter- est in that section of the country, due no doubt to G. U.'s victory over Holy Cross and the fact that the game will prac- tically decide the Catholic College cham- pionship of the East. Although the Harvard-Yale game will be a counter attraction for New England football fans, a crowd of at least 20,000 is ex- pected to turn out to see the Blue and Gray and Maroon and Old Gold teams meet in their annual contest.

The Thanksgiving holidays will begin next Wednesday morning according to the announcement coming from the Dean of the College. Classes will be shortened as is the custom on Wednes- day morning to allow the students to catch early trains. The vacation will extend till Monday. Last year there were no general holidays at Thanks- giving and the news of the holidays this year was welcomed by the student body. Those who are to stay in Washington on Turkey Day will have an opportunity of seeing their team in the final game of the year with Bethany College at Amer- ican League Park.

THE H O Y A

Sportortal By Bill Daly

The Catholic College championship of the East will hang in the balance when Georgetown and Boston College meet in their annual gridiron classic at Braves Field, Boston, next Saturday afternoon. Georgetown is entering the game with two legs already on the coveted honor, and a victory over Coach Cavanaugh's team will mean the bringing of the title to Georgetown. Boston College has won the championship for the past two years and is determined to make it three in a row, but on a basis of comparative scores Georgetown should win the title. Both teams have played Fordham, Boston College tieing the New Yorkers in a scoreless game and Georgetown having the verdict of 34 to 7 over the Bronx aggregation. The Hilltoppers have also defeated Holy Cross, and a win over the Newtonites Saturday will win the championship. Boston College has been pointing to the Georgetown game all season and they are expected to be in the best of shape by Saturday to meet the strong Hilltop eleven.

AMONG HIGH SCORES

Among the many memorable scores of past Georgetown victories that are still traceable on the old college wall there is one that appears plastered in several places. Whitewash seems to have shared the sacred sections that this par- ticular score adorns, and even today you can see painted in more than one place about the Hilltop a voice of past Georgetown glory :

"Georgetown, 17—Virginia, 16." That game went down in history just

twenty years ago on November 1G, 1901, ami in the annals of Georgetown there are few battles to compare with it.

Every Georgetown man knows that the old Georgetown-Virginia games meant so much that there is no need of explanation of the significance of a vic- tory for either side. But in 1001 when the eleven from Charlottesville invaded the Blue and Gray territory they rule: the big favorite. At the end of the half when the score stood tl-0 against the home team, the "I told you so" gentle- men strutted about cmite self-satisfied and later in the game when the second half was more than half over and Vir- ginia still held the long end of a L6 6 score, it looked like a walk-away for the visitors.

But the Georgetown College Journal for December of that year tells the thrilling story:

"* * * Georgetown, IT; Virginia, 16. "Behind these figures which tell of

the unexpected result of the football game between Georgetown and the Uni- versity of Virginia is a story which has seldom been equalled in the annals of the treat Rugby game. It is the story of how eleven men, outclassed, outweighted, outgeneraled—crippled. crushed, and beaten in a brawny battle—suddenly- rose mightily above their foes, towered over them, pounded them back, tore wide gaps in their ranks, and throug i them rushed steadily to victory, after hope had died in all breasts save theirs, and after the stigma of defeat had been burned into all hearts save those beating beneath the blue jerseys on the gridiron.

"What those eleven men did for Georgetown will go down on the pages of college history side by side with the feat of little Poe, who once saved Princeton from defeat at the hands of Yale with a drop-kick when but two minutes of play remained * * *.

"It was a glorious sight, one to warm the heart of every spectator whether he waved blue and gray or swung the bril- liant orange and blue. Men of years of experience on the gridiron said they never saw such a magnificent rallying burst of strength as that displayed by Georgetown during the last of the sec- ond half. Virginia was literally swept off her feet * * *.

"The climax of the contest was the most exciting ever witnessed on .the Georgetown Field. With forty-five sec- onds to play, the ball was in George- town's possession on the Virginia 7-yard line. The score was 16-12 in favor of Virginia. For five minutes the George- town boys had been playing like enraged lions and they hammered and jammed and pounded their way from upfield straight towards their opponents' goal line without a loss. It was recognized by all a few minutes before the touch- down was made that nothing but the whistle would save Virginia. The time- keepers were watched with bated breath and blanched faces from the Georgetown side of the field, while fear, hope, and despair were depicted alternately upon the faces of the Virginia supporters.

'"They haven't time. They'll never make it. If we only had a couple of minutes more,' came from the Blue and Gray, while from the Orange and Blue came murmurs, "Why don't they call time?'

Hilltcppers Have Scored 218 Points to 41 by Opponents in

Games Played to Date.

Up-to-date records of the leading football elevens of the country, inclu- sive of last Saturday's games show that Georgetown holds fourth place among the highest scoring gridiron machines with a total of 218 markers to II scored by her opponents.

Cornell, undefeated this season, leads the list with the high mark of 351 points. Her opponents have tallied 21 points. Gilmore Dobie's eleven has aver- aged ."it) points in seven games played.

Lafayette, coached by Doc. Suther- land, comes next with 246 points. The Eastonians arc undefeated as yet. Their opponents have ran up but 20 points in eight games played.

Penn State, which defeated Navy last week, is third with a total of 230 to 49 scored by opponents. Hugo Bezdek's pupils have had an unusually strong schedule this year but possess a clean slate so far.

The Hilltoppers, who suffered their first defeat of the year last Saturday, are next in order and then comes Army with 201, Yale with 199, and Washing- ton and Jefferson named.

kith 195 in the order

Once, twice, thrice the Georgetown backs plunged into the Virginia line, only to be thrown back with little or no gain. Everyone knew that the result of the game hinged on the next play, and when Sullivan gave the signals his was the only voice that could be heard. Virginia braced, expecting another line plunge, but Hart went around left end and scored the final touchdown.

"Probablv there was never such a demonstration of enthusiasm at George- town as that which followed. The en- tire aggregation of Georgetown rooter>. spectators, and subs broke through the ropes and poured upon the field. The police might as well have been over Anacostia."

Thus was ended one of the greatest struggles ever seen at the Hilltop. The Georgetown-Virginia games _ of former times were memorable occasions.

NEW G. U. CALENDAR TO APPEAR SHORTLY

Will Contain Pictures of Campus, Buildings, R. O. T. C, and

Athletic Teams.

The Georgetown University calendar for the year 1922 will make its appear- ance shortly. The calendar, which made a great hit about this time two years ago, is being published and circu- lated by Thomas Fitzgerald, of the Junior class, and Tom Scalley, and will soon be on sale.

The calendar is exceptionally attrac- tive with a cover of castillion gray. The seal of the University is embossed on a field of blue and gold on the cover together with the caption, "Georgetown University 1922." The interior of the calendar contains some excellent views of the campus, buildings, etc. A feature is the pictures of all the athletic teams on the Hilltop and a picture of the R. O. T. C.

The calendar is tied with a blue letter thong completing the color scheme of blue and gray and making it very at- tractive. An added feature of this year's calendar will be the fact that each calendar has an individual mailing en- velope supported by cardboard to pre- vent damage or breakage in the mails.
