With Carolina having the best team

speculation as to the outcome OF the
annual struggle between the two
slevens However, those familiar with
football are looking for one OF the
hardest scrap s ever staged within the
West End enclosure by the two ag-
Ere6ations. II matters not how good
n team 10 sent against them by Viz
Efnia or how poor a squad the Caro-
liniAns put on the field, the Tarheels
can always be depended upon to put
up the fight of their lives against the
Orange and Blue forces. The fight
that has characterized North Caro-
lina's battles on the gridiron here in
the past few years, has made the
Down Home eleven quite popular in
Richmond.
On paper II looks as II the North
Carolnians have the best team. but
that's something that doesn't count
In football Many times the gallant
footballists who have made their an
nuai pilgrimage to Richmond in an
effort to down the Virginia team have
looked formidable enough to nose out
a victory. But they haven't won a
