He comedies but one game on the en-
tire schedule, this being the classic
with w. and J. and he believes the
West Virginians will be able TO hold
the Red and Black warriors, barring
injuries to the regular men.
Captain Davis Is a master Of the
spiral pass and is one OF the few CEN
tiers In the entire country using this
sort or pass entirely. In three years
at center. he holds the distinction OF
making only one bad pass and this oc-
