Williamsburg. Va. Oct. 21.--William

possible shape for the game here with

ing to the "fact that several OF the
regular players were Injured in the

Monday TO get every man in college
to come out for the team The result
was that over forty men have been
working out on Cary Field during
the past week. affording tho regulars
well as filing up some OF the gaps due
to injuries. The addition of so much
material to the squad has made the
team more confident and given them a
still greater determination TO waller

row feel that they will be able % use
the new men to advantage In Saturdays

shown both strength and skill IN the
scrimmage against the varsity, and
IT is very probable that number of
substitutes will be necessary on &c
count Of the warm weather.
While tho absence OF Joynes. who
receives a broken wrist in the Hamp-
den Sydney game, will be felt. the work
of Geddy at quarter has peen crafty

The game Saturday afternoon at
Broad-str@et Park between the Ran
dolph Macon Yellow Jackets and the
Hampden-sidney Tigers is expected to
be one of the nardeAt gridiron strug-
giles to be staged in Richmond this
season.
On paper the elevens seem to be
evenly matched. and from present in
dications the score will be a close
one. Last Saturday the Farmville
boys won their opening championship
contest of the season by casily de-
feating the William and Mary In

was taking the measure of the Rich
mond Light Infantry Blues at Broad

Coach Reiss, of the Ashland insti-
tuition, has developed one OF the most
formidable machines that has rep
resented the Methodist college in
many seasons. The line ~ a heavy
and plucky one, while the backs are
all speedy. The Ashland coach has
given his charges n fine assortment
OF plays this season, and they will
uncork everything they have against
the Farmville outfit.
Tigers Are Confident.
Reports are emanating from Hamp-

this year Is the best In many seasons,
and the principal topic of discussion

JOHN MARSHALL TO
PLAY FORK UNION

John Marshall High Schools football
gladiators will go to Fork Union to-
morrow morning, where they will play
Fork Union Military Academy's team
a game In the afternoon. Coach Harry
Griffin's eleven is reported as being
one of the strongest in this section
of the country and 1t will not be safe
to predict that the locals will win the
game.
The game tomorrow afternoon will
serve to get the John Marshall boys in
trim for the MCGUIRE game, which Will
be- played al Broad street Park on Fri
day of next week. The Mcclure out
fit is considered by prep league wise-
acres as the logical opponents of the
Marshallites for the prep title, and the
proteges of Coach Simpson do not want
to show glimmer of defeat In the cham
pionship clash.
Captain Gilbert. Of the Marshallites,
said last night that the Fork Union
team members have made it known in
Richmond that they are planning some
big surprises for the locals. The Ca
det bunch has not done much in the
gridiron field SO far this season, but
their past records and a glimpse Of
their squad Is sufficient to warrant
them as dangerous organization.
A crowd of High School rooters Will
accompany the team 10 Fork Union.
Coach Simpson and Mr.. James, of the
faculty, will go along with the boys,

win the game for another reason than

earlier in the season with the Fork

of doubt has hung over the game ever
