emily enough to win foot ball game
from team that was fairly evenly
matched with his eleven. Yale will be
watching for the Wendell charges, and
will undoubtedly have its defense built

Georgetown is booked to meet the Uni
versity of Maryland. While the Balti-
more aggregation has been putting UP a
good game all fall 1t is not probable that
1t will accomplish much against the Blue
and Gray. The team which Georgetown
is to meet played the st. Johns aggrega-
ton 90 score and held V. P. 1. to 10
points. 1t is not probable that the Uni
versity of Maryland team will score on
the Hilltoppers, unless by a chance play,
and 1T is as much unlikely that its for
wards will be able to stop the opposing
backs from gaining almost at will.

on winning from Johns Hopkins more
than from any other school. The two in
situations are great rivals, athletically
speaking, and each had rather defeat the
other than any team on its schedule. The
Upstaters, while they lost to the Mary

OF the best seen this year between two
minor colleges. Both teams are especial
ly DESTROYS of taking the winning end of
have in their repertoire Of plays in order
to win. The Aggies have shown some
improvement since they met Washington
College two weeks ago, and Gallaudet will
be more on edge than for any other con-
test Of the year. The game should be
well played on the part of both teams.

physical advantage is concerned.
Gallaudet has well balanced team, In
that it has men back of it's line who are
through the line consistently or pass the
ball out to the ends with unerring &C.
curacy. The two styles Of play fairly
closely combined by the Kendall Green
during the year and it remains to be seen
whether or not 1t will be as effective
against the Aggies.
The Western and Business game this
afternoon, which is the last scheduled in
the high school series. will be played
on field upon which it will be hard to
tell the relative merits of the two elev-
ems Business is much tighter than
Western and has always depended
more on open plays and end running
for its gains, while Western has worked
heavy line plunges to best advantage.
The conditions under which the game
will be played today decidedly favor the
latter form of play. The contest under
any conditions, though, should be close.
Foley, who is being tried out at quar-
terback at Georgetown. is showing up
well. While he showed many defects in
the way he ran the team yesterday
against the Maryland Aggies, there was
every evidence Of his making good man
for the position. One thing noticeable
was his broken-feld running. which was
especially good.
