Head Coach Elliott was assisted to-
day by Rice Warren and DR.. Edwin

though the first and second teams
were lined up In order that several
plays might be tried out more advan-
tageously.
The practice OF the Virginia team
for the next week will be just a.
strenuous as that preceding the
Georgetown game. There Is no over
confidence in the Virginia camp THIS
has been a season Of surprises. ana
the Orange and Blue eleven is going
TO take no chances. The Chapel Hili
