With the title dependent upon a victory
over North Carolina Agricultural and Me

Lee is carefully printing for the clash.
Every regular will probably be in fine
trim for the game, unless injuries result
in the scrimmage.
THE most recent switch in the bat

half in order to gain his deft punts.
Barker will be played at right end, with
Lille at halfback in all probability Should
a kicking game be resorted to, Smith will
be substituted. However, Terry starred
in the victory over West Virginia and is
seriously considered as q regular.
Never before has Washington and Lee
produced such team and never before
has 1t had such an array of prospective
All-South Atlantic players. Young, Mil
Ter, Shulz, Miles and Beuhring have Der
formed in sensational form this season.
Young has starred in every game, maxi
ing wonderful broken field runs, one for
touchdown after an S0-yard sprint. Mil
Ter, who is probably the largest player in
the division, has played a wonderful de-
fensive and offensive game. His bulky
form, netting 254 pounds has provided
gaping holes for the backfield, while his
tackling has been superb
In tackles, Miles and Shulz, the Cen
erals, are endowed with wonderful defen-

and have proved mainstays on the de-
fense. Through an effective formation,
both have been intrusted with the ball and
the duo has been very effective in accept
ing forward passes.

The rout of the Badgers was a fitting
climax to the Maroon's remarkable au-
stumns work, for they have met and
downed all rivals, closing the season by
beating last years champions.
The Maroons played a steady machine
like game. Norgren's long punts were
important factors, dives into the line by
Pierce and Gray clinched scores and a
great run of 80 yards for touchdown by
Gray, who had Intercepted a forward
pass, was the spectacular event of the
game.
Gray's run turned a possible Wiscon-
sin touchdown into one for the Maroons
The Badgers had the ball on Chicago's s
20-yard line and with four yards to make
In one attack, Quarterback Bellows tried
pass. Gray leaped into the air and
pulled down the oval. Only Bellows stood
between him and the Badger goal and.
by long, sweeping run, he eluded the
Cardinal quarter, outsped Ofstie and
planted the ball behind the posts.
Rain kept the crowd down to about
25,OO0 Many ticket scalpers suffered
losses The field was slippery but not
soft and the rain ceased before the game
started.
Chicago Scores Easily
The first quarter was less than five min
utes old when the Maroons pushed Nor
gren over for the first touchdown. The
kickout was missed. A 30-yard run by
Bellows started a Wisconsin rally late
in the first quarter that nearly put the
Badgers over. Buck bored big holes in
the Chicago right wing and through it
the Wisconsin backs carried the ball to
the Maroons 10-yard line. Here holding

awarded to Chicago and Norgren drove
