JOHNS HOPKINS TO
RE-ENTER FOOTBALL

The announcement of the reentry of
the State football arena by Johns Hop
kins, was received with much interest
at St. Johns. The latter has repeat
edly urged Hopkins to play, but had
been informed that under no circum-
stances would team be formed there.
While, the local institution will prob
ably try to accommodate their Balti-
more rivals with game, there will be
no interference with the plan TO play
with State College in Baltimore on
Thanksgiving Day. This was stated
most definitely by Coach Wilson this
morning

FOOTBALL SATURDAY
WITH WESTERN MD.
st. Johns Meets One OF Its Old State
Rivals In Afternoon Contest

At conference between Coach John
Wilson, of ST. Johns. and Athletic Di-
rector Turner, of Western Maryland,
which took place in Baltimore yester-
day morning the game between these
old State rivals. to take place in An
napolis on Saturday. was confirmed.
Unfortunately, the game will have TO
be played in the afternoon, and there
will be a counter-attraction in the Mid
shipman- Newport Naval Reserve game
at the Academy. This will not be so
great an interference, however, as the
general public is still barred from the
Academy.
No direct line on the strength of the
Western Maryland has been received
here, but it was represented by good
team last year. and will undoubtedly
be a serious contender for the State
championship. In view of the strong,
traditional rivalry between the two, 1t
is certain that the game will attract a
big crowd.
