STATE LADS HOLD
WORKOUT TODAY

Maryland States football players
gather today at College Park to make
ready for the Virginia Polytechnic In
stitute lads Saturday. An effort will
be made to stage the contest in this
city instead Of at College Park, 1t is
understood.
The West Virginia Wesleyan game
proved a nightmare for the -Staters,
who were weakened by the absence of
regulars. Forced into a quagmire of
mud, the State team was outclassed.
Some consolation is gained from the
knowledge that Virginia Poly suffered
defeat at the hands of the George
town team.
Coach Byrd will get his lads out
today and will begin rounding up for
the Weekend game Immediately.
Ready and Bosley are expected to be
in shape for the contest.
Following the contest with Teck
here, Maryland State will 60 to Yale

TECH WILL MEET
CENTRAL FRIDAY

Tech plays Central Friday. The
bare announcement has brought
thrills to all of the followers Of high
school football here for the past two
weeks. The teams representing the
largest high schools in the city are
ceratin to furnish a bang-up game.
Tech will be ready. Central is quite
certain it can keep up its great stride
of the past three years.
While the Central-Tech contest
comes early on the schedule the foot
ball season in the high schools is apt
to be an anti-climax unless Western,
Eastern and Business can furnish
| something in the way Of competition.
At the present writing Central and
Tech are far ahead of the other
schools on the gridiron. Tech has the
heaviest eleven. Central the best
drilled. Western is an unknown
quantity. Business has been slow in
starting while Eastern's light, mex,
perienced youngsters have found
themselves unable to cope with the
Tech lads already.
Tomorrow Business and Western
take the field. The Westerners
should win. The game, however. Is
expected to be closely fought con-
test throughout. But this contest is
greatly overshadowed by the ap-
preaching Tech-Central contest Of
Friday.
Following the differences between
the schools this fall a resumption of
football games has brought forward
the old spirit of rivalry between Tech
and Central. Many former students
and as many members of the alumni
associations as can find time will be
on hand for the engagement.

JANUARY WILL SEE
DEMPSEY IN RING

Jack Dempsey Is now touring
through Texas with the sells-Floto
circus, according to Otto Floto. one OF
the owners of the big-tent enterprise.
Floto says that Dempsey was engaged
at a salary OF $4,000 weekly, but that
he was not called upon to do any
side show or concert" stunt, as will
lard did when he followed the saw
dust circle.
According to Floto, Kearns, Demp-
sey's manager, plans to open the gate
to challengers next January, at which
time he will start training with a
view to meeting the foreign and
American candidates for his crown.
1t is possible. he says, that Kearns
will let Dempsey meet two or three
American boxers before taking on
Beckett or Carpenter. Moran, Fulton
and Miske being under consideration.
After November Z, when the circus
season closes, Dempsey will go to
the coast to figure in two Pathe pic
lures.

visitors braced in the second half, but
lost two opportunities to score by
fumbling.
Bleier. Cranston and Giebel were
the chief ground gamers for the Rex
lads. Smith, Murray and Schwartz
performed cspably for the visitors.
The Vincome men clearly outplsyed
