VARSITY
TO BE GIVEN REST
Coach Warren Does Not Want to Run Risk of His Victorious
Orange and Blue Going Stale Before Big Classic Grid
iron Battle With Georgetown.

CHARLOTTESVILLE Va, Nov. g.
Following Saturdays grinding battle
with Vanderbilt, Virginia's first string
men will be given two days layofi
to recover their strength. Two weeks
will elapse before the Georgetown
game, and Coach Warren does not
mean to have his varsity eleven &c
stale.
The Virginia team came through
| the game in good shape, no Serious
injuries of any nature being present
to mar Saturdays complete triumph
Buck Mayer was in poor shape be-
fore be entered the game, and the
short while he played only served to
make IT apparent that he was use
less to the team. Hence he played
scarcely more than the second
quarter. AS 1t was the substitution
OF Randolph into left haIfback in
the last quarter of play saved the
Virginia goal line from being crossed
Randolph caught Boensh, the Vandy
quarterback, on the Virginia ten
yard line, after the latter had made
the most spectacular dash Of the day,
an eighty-yard run from beneath his
own goal posts. Randolph, being the
fastest sprinter among the Virginia

:, Whereas there reigned unlimited con-
1ldence before the game as to the win
ner. no Virginia enthusiast had dheam-
ed OF such walkover. Vanderbilt was
known to be weak, Virginia strong. but
never in the history of either school
had the one achieved such a complete
reversal. the other such complete
triumph. against a team of the re-
puted class of the other. Virginia men

yond expression. Vanderbilt was heart
broken, for never since the advent of
the famous Dan McGuigan into Van
derbilt football, had they received such
defeat from any school, and they
have played the best in the East and
West. McGuingan alone appeared un-
surprised. Before the contest and after

The five forwards REINFORCED by Jett
IN place of Jack Brown, played the
game expected of them In the first
quarter when the offensive wheels re-
fused to turn at ALL the Virginia line
was holding its own, even outplaying
their opponents who then showed their
only excuse at defense. Voolfolk

On offense and defense, and kept his
eyes on the ball at all times. The line
and team appeared 10 per cent stronger
with Jett in the game Jett stated be-
fore the game that it would be his last
for Virginia because of heavy work in
school. Whether he will remain firm
the future alone can tell, but it Is
known that the coaches will not let
such an important cog leave them on
the eve of a now great season, with
prospects Of being the greatest. with
out a fight.
Coleman was started in place of Jim
my White at left end. and here the
coaches committed their one error
White is the best hand at receiving the
forward pass on the team, and, with
him absent, Gooch's effectiveness at
this art is lessened materially. White
also played pretty defensive game. 1t
was at the ends, however. that Vir-
ginia exhibited her old-time weakness
again and again. The ends could not
get the men, and Vanderbilt in later
parts Of the game took realization Of
the fact.
with Georgetown's present inability
to show form, dope points to a Vir-
ginia victory on November 10. Should
Jim Dunn and Tug Fury regain their
vacated places in the backheld. Vir-
ginia would then fear the Hilltoppers
