ATVILLANOVA THE FOOTBALL TEAM
PLA YS FOR SAKE OF GAME ALONE;
NO COMMERCIALISM OUT THERE
By ROUERT W. MAXWELL
Sport Editor Evening l'ubllc Ledger
A
UT In Villnnovn, Pa., a town on the Main L.ine, were
Uik rtllrpp. It Isn't n biff nlncc. which goes double
for both tho town and the college, now ever, one find
,saore enthusiasm, good fellowship and real college spirit
there than in Institutions ten times Its she.
I visited Villanova College tho other day to see the
football team. A game is to be plnyed with MuhlcnborB
in Norrlstown on Saturday, and it was reported that
Coach Tom Reap was working his men hard for the game
with the hope of putting over an entirely unexpected
victory. The reports were true, so far as the hard work
was concerned. The football men surely put In n
strenuous afternoon.
The field Is not one of these modernly equipped affairs
surrounded by n concrete stadium,, level ground nnd per
fect drainage. It is just a Held, a playground, situated
on the front campus. A canvas wall about five feet high
urrounds It, because at times It Is necessary to chargo
admission to the hoihe gumes to help pay the expenses of
the' visiting team. It h not a financial proposition at
Villanova. Tho gome is played for sport's sake only,
and it is in a college like that that real football can be
en. Tho spirit of commercialism never enters into it.
The campus presented a rather kaleidoscopic scene on
this particular afternoon. On the main gridiron tho
varsity and prep school teams were running through signal
practice. Off the sideliues were several Rroups of stu
dents, some kicking and kicking at a football and others
trying to cavort with a Uelgian police dog which was
known as a German dog before the war.
In front of one of the collego buildings a crowd of
ambitious joungsters were engaged In cutting down a huge
tree which, for some reason or other, had been considered
superfluous.
EVERYBODY teemed to be butu at something.
h Li Vone of the students teas lolling around as
WONDER WHAT SOME TRAFFIC COPS THINK AfeOUT
X
spectators, trhich accounts for the healthv appear
ance of the boys.
B
A Great Life You Can Lead It
UT the busiest person on the lot wns Tom Reap, the
varsity coach. Tom is not one of those sylphlike
creatures, but acts like one. He is built along the sym
metrical lines of n sack of potatoes, but appearances arc
deceitful In this ense.
Tom stands behind the line of scrimmage and' coaches
the man at throwing a forward pass. An soon as the
ball leaves his hand the rotund coach dashes down the
field and coaches the plnjcr who Is catching the ball.
Reap ran up nnd down the field all afternoon, doing the
work of throe men, but lie got results. Before the prac
tice was over everything was running smoothly and the
team acted like n well-oiled machine.
Reap has an original method in coaching. He docs
vcrything himself, and n more enthusiastic worker cannot
be found. He not only tells his players what to do, but
fetB in and bhows them.
OAT? minute he xs charging into a guard or tackle
and the next he is dashing around the end,
demonstrating to the backficld men the proper icag
to carry the ball and pick an opening.
Some Information About the Squad
WHILE this was going on a pleasant-faced, dark
suited man came on the field and walked over to
where I was standing. He seemed to be well known and
called every one by his first name. He had the free and
easy stride of an athlete in perfect condition, and as he
drew nearer it could be tecn tliut he was a very husky
person.
"What do you think of the football team?" he asked.
"The boys are working hard and the signal practice
thus far seems to have been successful. "-
"Yes, they work -hard," was the reply, "but the ma
terial Is pretty green. For example, take the line. Mc-
Kenna and Myers, the guards, are heavy boys, but this
is their first year ou the team. The same goes for Strelgje
and ltachmnn. the tackles. McCarthy, the center, Is
playing his third year, when he pla)s. He has been laid
up with an assortment of bruises which Includes a
wrenched shoulder, a bruised rib and a twisted knee.
However, he still is ou the job, playing just as hard as
any one.
"Elmer Hertzler is left end nnd captain. He is ft
naturnl leader and a very good plnjcr. The other end
still is open, but Tony Lynch, brother of Leo Lynch, our
great center, probably will play there. Tony is our utility
man. He has plnjed every position nnd given A gooO
account of himself. He is much faster than Leo, if that
means anything.
"Billy Cronln is the quarterback. He has scored
every touchdown for his team this jenr, making nil three
after brilliant runs. He, too, is green, but will develop
into a great player.
itTEBENQOOD, a Pottttoicn boy, is the regular
" left halfback, but the other side still is open.
McXamara, McDonald, Poppcrt and Conway are
fighting it out, and McXamara seems to have the
edge.
Introducing Eddie McGrady
TMD yu cvcr hcnr ot l:1Jlc McGrady? Well, Eddie
J- is the only senior on the team and plays fullback.
He is a real star an ideal combination man. He kicks,
runs and throws the forward pobs. When he is back the
opposing players do not know what he will do. He keeps
them guessing all of the time. Eddie punts about fifty
yards and often scores drop kicks from mldficld.
"McGrady, as I said before, is the only senior on the
team, which means nil of the other players will be avail
able next year. We have wonderful prospects, although
it might take another two weeks to prove it. Our sub
stitute material looks good with Blanchficld, McClcrnan,
Marshall heading the list.
"Yes, we have great possibilities great possibilities."
Aftir this the speaker nodded a pleasant farewell and
resumed his walk around the field.
"That man must be a great football fan, because he
knows all about the team," I remarked to Leo Ljnch,
who was standing nearby and wearing a decoration handed
out In Conshohockcn last Saturday.
"Yes," replied Leo, "and that Isn't oil. Ho has a
thorough knowledge of everything else that happens out
here. That was Dr. Francis A. Drlscoll, president of
the college."
TUITH a man like Dr. Driscoll in charge, Villa
ff nova can't help but be successful as a college.
Teams Are Evenly MatcJied
A WORD about the game next Saturday between
Muhlenberg and Villanova. It is to be played In the
Stockade in Norrlstown and should be quite Interesting.
The teams appear to be evenly matched, and this means
a close battle.
Viltanovn thus far has lost to P. M. C, Fordham and
George Washington University. However, this wns to be
expected. The team was green as grasa and it took a few
games to teach the players what it was all about. Now
Coach Reap is rounding his men into shape and they will
play n much better game on Saturday.
Muhlenberg has lost to State, Lafayette, Catholic
Univernity nnd Buckncll, but defeated Albright 14 to 13.
Bill Rltter has a very good squad this year and all of
his players will be available with tho possible exception
of Frcitag. Conway, the spectacular end, hna recovered
from the Bucknell game nnd will be on the job.
TAKING it all in all, the game uiill be tcell worth
seeing.

MISS MILDRED CAVERLY wound
n vnll.nM lirf!A.,lt rtl t annain In
n blaze of glory yesterday when she
won her second title tind defeated Mrs.
Clarence H. Vandcrbeck, 0 nnd 4, for
tho women's golf championship of the
Country Club. She wns out in 41
morning nnd afternoon.
Miss Caverly previously had won the
championship of the Cricket Club. Her
program was more ambitious this year
than last, when it will be remembered
she went to the last tourney before win
ning n prize.
Her wide victorv over Mrs. Vandcr
beck ranks her indisputably for this
senson with .Mrs. anderbccK nnd .Mrs.
Ronald II. Rarlow. This trio continues
supreme in local golf this vear, though
Mrs. Vanderbcck nnd Miss Caverly
missed virtually all of it by their trip
abroad.
On their return Mrs. Vandcrbeck
went to the national semifinals, and
then, won the Mary Thner Farnum
event here. She was beaten by Mrs.
Harlow in a close match in the Rer
thollyn invitation, and bent Miss Cav
erly by n wide mnreln nt Cane May.
Miss Caverly disqualified and plnyed
well at the national, didn't" enter the
Berthclljn, but tnkes her place with the
trio Dy ner victory yesterday. Mm.
Rarlow lost both her North and South
chnmplonships nnd the local title when
she was beaten by Miss May Bell, but
won the eastern and defeated Mrs.
Vanderbcck, as stated in the Bcrthcllyn
event.
Schedule Finished
Tho women's heasou lias now come
to a close, but, like the men players,
plenty of them nro to bo been on the
links every day.
The Country Club is particularly ac
tive. Traffic over the first tee of late
has been decidedly heavy. Today mixed
foursomes arc being played at the club.
with seventeen couples entered. Later
on there will be a "tea-day," tecs in
the jnorning and tea to follow for the
ladles,
"blue" Mondnv. Hut we were nftsured
it was tho usual pressure of play only.
xnere was such a bid for the honor at
the first tee that threesomes, foursomes,
filisomes nnd everything else were
formed to expedito getting awny'beforo
dark.
The bruited rumor of nil tho invndlnff
to be done next year is Interesting datn
for the winter store, soon to be lighted
in our best nineteenth golf holes.
The net result this year in so mnny
words was that Americans, entered in
each of their championships this sea
son, succeeded In capturing none of the
British titles, though n good showing
wns made in both the women's piny nnd
open, and Bob Gardner went to the
finals for the aSnateur gonfalon. Walter
nagen lifted the French open title.
Over here, our open title wns won. by
Ted Ray, invading Briton, there wns no
regular attempt to .enter the women's
piny, and n sad story Indeed In the
British entry for Americnn nmateur
honors, where three out of four failed
to qualify, including the champion, nnd
the fourth lasted only until Ouimct was
met.
Two Stars
AUIgnlng the material entered in each
event, two out of the best five Americnn
wombn" players entered abroad with no
strictly ranking player from abroad in
ours.
One of our best ten amntcdrs entered
abroad, while virtually the flriit four
British amateurs entore'd here.
Two of our best ilvn nrns entnreil
abroad, while two of the best ten British
money golfers entered here.
The conditions encountered abroad did
not favor our entries there, nnd our
amateur test here was n toueh n.ssicn-
ment for nil, particularly the Britons.
Summing up. it is estimated wo trail
slightly in feminine talent, considerably
in professional, but lead comfortably
In amateur class over the British offer
ing. It is promised thnt best of both
countries will Invade and counter in
vade next year. B that time tho golf
ing strength of both countries Rliniild
be thoroughly re-established after the
N TUB general discussion that comes
up each autumn ns to football's
leading stars, we have among other
luminaries at least two candidates to
present
The best forward we have seen this
season Is Captain Alexander, the star
center rush of Syracuse University.
The best back field man wo have seen
is "Bo" McMillan, of Center College.
Backing up a line together It would
take a combination of an eel, on ele
phant and a groybouhd to get away.
The two are not' only great football
players, but both have wonderful in
spirational riTtCt upon the men around
thorn which is another important fac
tor. McMillan is equally brilliant on at
tack and defense, replete with -speed,
stamina,, clear headedness and unyield
ing courage.
And football will havo to go a long
way before It finds a better center than
Alexander.
Eastern Backs
TUB crop of star eastern backs con
tinues to develop with each Satur
day s output.
Harvard can offer Horween, Owens
and Churchill a brilliant trio.
'Princeton has Louric, Gharrity and
Gllroy.
Yale, in Kelly and Aldrlch, has two
worth observing.
Pitt has Davlcs and Hewitt nnd Syr
acuse has Abbot.
Cornell has a Ntar In Halfback Kaw.
Boynton, of Wllllnms, continues his
spectacular career, while Way, of Penn
State, is an outstanding star.
In Eilsori and Erlckson. W, and J.
tins a pair of birds, while Beck, of
West Virginia, has contributed his
share of daring deeds.
Many of these arc now sailing along"
on even terms, where nothing short
nf the hlr? Nnvcmber tests will clvo
most ot tho answer.
A Southern Backfleld
ITriTIl McMillan nnd Whimell, of
VV Center: Barron. Hnrlan nnd Flow
crs, of Georgia Tech ; Leech, of V. M.
I., nnd Lnwc, of Carolina State, ns n
starting nucleus, the South can present
an all-star backfleld of rare merit.
These men have starred against Har
vard, Ynle, Pittsburgh and Pennsyl
vania and hnve held their own with the
best backs In the East.
McMillan and Leech makes a fine
starting point, and there arc many
others to fill in.
Harvard can tell you about Mc
Millan and Pennsylvania can tell you
just as much about Leech,
The Unbeaten
HOW many survivors will this coming
Saturday leave?
Pennsylvania, Center, Michigan,
Wisconsin and Georgia Tech, among
tho leading elevens, fell away in the
last test.
Princeton, Harvard, Pittsburgh,
Syracuse, W. nnd J., Penn Stnte.
Illinois. Notre Dnme nnd Ohio State
are still among, the survivors.
The Army team is still with the un
defeated, but the first hard Army test
doesn't come until the Notre Dame
affair.
Penn Stnto Is the machine thnt has
the better chance to finish unbeaten.
Bezdek's main hurdle will be Pitts
burg late in November, nnd when these
two meet the probabilities are that the
fur will be several fathoms deep when
the game is over.
