.NoW loi Soho''~f
md Fordham is the planning OF
Coach Exendine and his Hilltop var
rity squad, for all three contests
will test the strength Of the team
as it has not been tested this sea-
son. The first real battle of the
year at the Hilltop is booked for
next Saturday, when Logan Cum
ningham's North Carolina Tar
Heels appear for the fray.
This week special drilling will be
gwen Georgetown's varsity in
stopping the formations Cunning
ham usually teaches his teams.
Cunningham is one Of the shrewd-
est tutors in football, and is sure
to bring a powerful eleven with
him.
Only one weakness appeared In that
skirmish with Reina Mercedes Saturday
and Coach Exendine will work hard to
change that. The Blue and Gray goal
kickcrs looked bad and so this week
there will be little classes for those
who may try for goals-from- oucn-
downs.
The varsity players passed through
saturdays game without injury and
they now know how 1t feels to be on
the long end OF big score. This should
be worth considerable to them in the
contests remaining on the schedule.
Tho hard part OF the campaign 10 stili
shead and Coach Exendine Is hopeful
OF having his team win a majority Of
its games.
Next Saturday comes North Carolina
a week later the tough Army eleven
will be played at West Point. On the
following Tuesday comes the game At
Fordhart,. to be followed by those with
South Carolina. North Carolina AEgtes
and st. Louis University.
Mike Thompson. former head coach
at Georgetown. refereed the Pennsy-
Penn State game Saturday. "Korty'
church. a Washington boy and former
ale player. was linesman.
Eddie briggs. Princeton's fine kicker.
made ten punts for H4 yards against
syracuse. Syracuse covered 1876 yards
by the punting route.
Lehigh Is hit hard by Chenoweth' 8
injury at Yale. Jim Ready. the half
back. is out with a broken shoulder and
now Chenoweth Is out with a fractured
ankle.
W. and J. is now heading for the
battle at New Haven. hoping to trim
the shattered Ellis. These teams have
met hve times. Yale winning three of
the games. In laOS Ted Coy was tear
ing things up al New Haven and his
team Won S to o. from W. and j.
once the score was even and last year
folwcll's team won. - to !.
Harry Naughns Fordham eleven Is
beginning TO work for three hard con-
tests, those with Carlisle, Georgetown
and Holy Cross. The Maroon was
beaten py Union Saturday In the Bronx
uo,s first game oi the year, but Ford
hams prospects are said 10 be excel
lent.
Unless Jack Iegarty kept u lot of
SUN out OF sisht. Roanoke must have
sIruus eleven TO play a no-score game
with ne North Carolina Angles. He-
guIty has ABOUT the same lineup this
s,.."n ,I.ut he put on Georgetown Field
last Avi.r and tied the Hiltoppers, 30
ti.r impression Is that Roanoke Is pow
tilui.
GEORGETOWN, ii will show one OF the
brs. Iunlin, halfbacks in the South In
Hp.. y. Tnyioe. This young man may
tcsr cn some long gallops against the
II h.ll,Oppers, unless stopped by the ends
priuIe he can get up steam.
Bob Maxwell was referee at the
NaVN-Pitt game at Annapolis Saturday.
he is expected to be at the Hilltop
within a few weeks.
Vanderbilt supporters must think of
the old days when they look at that
saturday score. The Commodores ran
UP - points aEainst Georgetown Ky.
Colleges nothing.
Virginia seems determined TO hang up
fancy record for 1915. judging by that
u to score against Richmond Satur-
day. The Charlottesville outtt seems to
be one of the best in years. and 1t l.,
therefore, all the more unsatisfactory
that there Is no game with Georgetown.
fOth cleNenS are unusually strong, and
would attract 2o,O00 persons. IL they
wcrc to tackle each other across the
creek
