ARRANGEMENTS have been comppeteo
between the managements of the
Georgetown and Maryland State elev-
ems for several meetings of the two
schools In practice contests. The first
of these strenuous work is to be
held next week, and off and on during
the entire season probably the two
teams will be lining up against each
other for thirty or forty minutes of
practice, which win take place under
the conditions Of a real game.
For the last four years these practice
contests have been staged and have
done each team a lot of good. Handi-
capped usually by . lack of practice
under real game conditions and against
squads unfamiliar with the signals and
plays, both elevens have been able to
bring out their faults and correct many
things which might not otherwise have
been detected. This is of almost IN
estimable value in the general develop
ment of a team. and especially SO when
it fs considered that both the elevens
concerned are each year CON PEELED to
play important contests early IN the
year.
