VIRGINIA TAKES

Defeats Emory and Henry

Special 30 The Washington Heald.
Charlottesville, Va, Jan. S-University
OF Virginia opened its Southern inter-
collegiate basketball season in Fayer-
Weather gymnasium tonight and downed
Lmory and Henry in game that fairly
bubbled over with excitement by 20 to Is.
1t was mainly through the Individual
efforts of Capt Kearns that Virginia
scored a victory. The clever forward
scored eighteen of the twenty points ac-
credited the home team, and played a
spectacular game both on Offense and
defense. Near the end of the game he
was hoored by an accidental blow dealt
by one Of the opposing players. It was
thought at first that he might be Sc
riously hurt. but after a short rest, he
was allowed to continue in the game.
A few minutes later he tossed a goal
from decidedly difficult angle that gave
Virginia the game by a margin of two
points
Between the halves OF the contest r.
W. Allen and Cary Jacobs, both Of the
academic class, were introduced for a
boxing bout of three rounds
