Dies of Conclusion
Young Christian, Eighteen y
Age, q Sacrifice to the Game
Georgetown University.

Washington, d. C.-Archer Chris
tan, Jr., eighteen years old, the Uni
yersity of Virginia football player
who was injured in the game with
Georgetown University, died without
regaining consciousness for more
than a few moments. Death was due
to cerebral hemorrhage following
concussion. The athletic authorities
Of both institutions have cancelled
their remaining football games.
MT. Christians father, mother and
brother were with him at the last.
Mrs. Christian had not witnessed the
game, but had come over simply to
be present in case of accident, having
: premonition that her son would be
injured. She was at the Union Sta
ton, on the point of returning to her
home In Roanoke, Va, when. she
called up the university to make sure
all was right. She was told that her
son had been injured and hurried to
the hospital. Mr.. Christian was UNI
moned from Richmond, Va.
Young Christian died from con-
cussion of the brain, sustained by a
fall after he was tackled by one of
G~eorgetOwn's men. The play was a
mass outside of tackle, and it is
thought that the dead man was fatal
ty hurt when he was first thrown and
not after the tackle was made. He
was placed on the operating table
and for three hours the physicians
worked over him, removing at least
three blood clots from the brain.
His parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Andrew
Christian, and his brother were with
him when the end came. Sincere
sympathy is manifested for them. and
In the university chapel the entire
undergraduate body knelt to pray for
the repose of the soul of young Chris
tian.
