of the contest. no matter what the re-
suit may be.
If Georgetown and North Carolina
are compelled to battle on a field wet
and slippery the former will be at
quite little disadvantage. The
Georgetown backs are clever dodgers
and run well in the open field. and a
wet turf is anything but favorable to
such backfield work. North Carolina's
heavy line-plunging tactics will be
more successful. comparatively speak
ing, than IL the field were absolutely
dry and footing good and sure.
According to reports from Cambridge.
Harvard. although prepared. is not TAX
ing the game it is to play with Vir-
ginia any too lightly. Haughton's elev-
en- is said to be expecting a game well
worth its entire powers. and really
will welcome the chance for a strenu-
Gus display of it's strength. inasmuch
as the first big contest of the year is
scheduled next week-that with Cor
nell. The Ithacans are stronger this
year. according to what they have been
showing in early games. and there is
not the least doubt that they are going
to give the Crimson hard struggle.
Just such a game as Virginia is likely
wanted to put the Cambridge aggrega-
tion on edge for the opening battle
with another big university.
The Virginia Polytechnic and WASH
ington and Lee play at Roanoke in a
game which will have a direct bearing
on the south Atlantic championship.
Last season Washington and Lee bare
ly won from the Polys by margin of
goal kicked from touchdown. the
latter failing to boot theirs, and this
season V. =. 1. seems TO be stronger
than 1t was in 1914. Washington and
Lee has powerful combination, too.
and the game is sure to be one of those
slashing. fast affairs that are SO in
teresting to watch.
Yale is in hopes of striking its stride
today in its game with the Springfield
Y. NJ. c. A. team. The Dark Blue has
developed a heavy, plunging attack in
connection with its open play, and it is
thought the combination of the two
will be much more successful than the
one style adhered to before almost ex-
clusively.

low. and landed in the sand pit to the
,, east of the hole, while Thompson was
up on the green. James then made a
brilliant recovery, getting out of the
pit and rolling to within a foot of the
hole. In the hope of tying the hole
Thompson tried for a safety, and down
went the ball for stymie.

James threw up his hands in disgust,
as the breaks were certainly not COM

to the good, but James kept right
after him and won the fourteenth in
par figures through the medium of a
splendid approach shot.
James was unlucky on the fifteenth,
his drive going into the ditch, and he
lifted for the loss of stroke. When
the sixteenth tee was reached Capt.
Thompson remarked that he might as
well concede the hole, as he never
could cover IT, and, true to his proph-
ecy, down he went into the run for
a lift. James landed on the green and
went down in 3. par.
On the seventeenth James came
through with ten-foot putt, going
down in to Thompson's 5. and
hole to go over. James started with
nice drive. while Thompson was
short with a slight hook. On his brassy
shot Thompson again topped. and 1t
looked to be all over, but James had
run into the sand pit on the left of
the hole. and there was a gleam of
hope in the Chevy Chase captains eyes.
But it was only for a minute, as the
Columbia leader got out nicely onto
the green and ran down the putt for

In addition to the crops mentioned there is good deal of land on the Rosedale farm in corn and pastures. Less at tention is being paid to cotton than any other crop. MT.
