suffering from colds. Otherwise the
men are In fine trim as only one suf-

go to Annapolis on an early train Sat

play, many go over for the game.

cast of the v. NJ 7. game that the
Techs were a much heavier team. AS
a matter of fact the Varsity this sea-
son is OF lighter weight than for years
If ever before. The average weight is
only one hundred and siXty-three
players, nineteen years. In spite of
this the 1907 team has won six out of
the seven games played and in the
other lost by small score. It is lin.
fortunate that the two hardest games
of the season are SO near together as
the men will not get back to college
from Annapolis Until SUNDAY evening.
and must leave here Wednesday morn

RICHMOND COLLEGE
PICKED |:'!|I[. '.!|.|: TO [! WIN.
Saturdays Game at Broad Street
Park Will Be One Of the
Cleverest.

The football game at Broad Street
Park on Saturday with the teams OF
Richmond College and Randolph Macon
College as adversaries will attract prob
ably the largest crowd that has seen
any game this season in Richmond
Both teams have many friends here.
the alumni Of the two institutions tax
ing great interest In the game. There
are probably several thousand Rich
nlond College alumni or former STU
dents in Richmond and many who have
attended Randolph Macon.
That the elevens are we'll matched
those who have seen their play in the
carly season game and tho magnificent
fight put up by Randolph Macon against
William and Mary Saturday are con-
WINGED. Randolph. Macon would have
made an even better fight last Satur-
day with Randolph. Its star quarter
back in. It may be depended upon
that the Yellow Jackets will have
plugged up all holes by Saturday. and
will make an even more strenuous
fight against Richmond than was
shown against William and Mary.
Coach Warren's porteges and those
OF Coach Dunlap are both working
hard. and the game will be an open
and spectacular one. Richmond VIII
probably rely on end runs. puntlng
and quarterback or onside kicks and
forword passes. Randolph-NIacon has
heavy tackles. and will probably use
tandem formations on tackles and
other line plays. Both sides VIII use
delayed passes and double passes and
fake punts.
Richmond's practice Yesterday
showed that the team is in fine shape
In every department, and Atkins is
developing into "a rival sof Feuerstine
as drop kicker. AS punter his
only fault is that he is still a bit slow
in getting off his punts. The first
game was lost TO Randolph=aiaconI on
this very. weakness. Coach !, DunIap's
men play fast, charging line game.
and have been developed to a high
standard within the past fortnight.
The odds are likely to be on Rich
mond College, Yesterday afternoon one
man was heard to offer $40 to SIS on
Richmond College, but If he repeats
his proposition Saturday he Is sure to
find takers. Some adherents Of Rich
mond College predict that 1t Will win
by as much as three touchdowns, but
this Is probably over-sanguinc. The
team will be well content to win by
two. Any difference Of form shown
by the two in previous games Will be
neutralized by the intense rivalry of
the two and the Yale spirit of the
yellow Jackets of never knowing when
they are beaten. Whatever the result,
the spectators will probably see the
most scientific and holly contested
game of the season.
