doing the right thing At the right
time. The power OF this team was
shown conclusively by the trouncing
given the University of Pennsylvania.
Georgetown had the worst season
experienced in many years. The
weakness Of this team Is hard to un-
derstand because many OF the players
are athletes Of wcll-known ability.
The greatest trouble with this team
was In the line. Only little Anderson
seemed to hold his own against his
opponents.
BREWER Is MAINsTAY.
Maryland State made an envioos
record. and this team, coached BY the
resourceful Byrd. reached LIS climax
when IT defeated the powerful SYRIA
cuse aggregation. Brewer was the
mainstay on this team. No one can
question the ability of this wonderful
back. He can do anything any other
football player can do.
Virginia is coming back and 10
again about to take her rightful
place in the football world. During
the period Of the war football was
suspended. Since the war Virginia
has decided to bar freshmen from
the varsity. This action will have a
good effect on the game.
Within a very few years all OF the
larger colleges will have this rule in
effect, and once this Is accomplished
you will hear but little about the
professional athlete and the ringer.
The University Of North Carolina has
adopted the freshman rule and most
of the big colleges are fast falling
In line.
A new system of coaching has
been instituted at the Charlottesville
Institution. DR.. w. Rice Warren took
up his duties last fall under the
most adverse circumstances, but nc
has made good with q vengeance. He
is a member Of the faculty and I'M
questionably il one Of the best
coaches in the country.
MORSE IDEAL COACH.
George Washington has again re-
sumed the game. Bryan Morse is at
the helm. Mr.. Morse Is an ideal
coach. He knows f,otball and gets
the most out Of his players. 1t can
safely be predicted that next year
George Washington will be represent
cd by a term that will always give
q good account OF itself.

authorities at this institution are
doing everything in their power to
keep out professionals and semi pro-
! fessionals. George Washington. like
Virginia, has the one year residence
rule. The mistake made last fan was
| in the schedule. For a new, tnexper-
| fenced team the schedule was entirely
| too severe.
! v. p. l., Washington & Lee. North
Carolina State and the University OF
North Carolina were about on par.
Washington & Lee flashed when its
team beat Georgetown. but II must be
remembered that Georgetown this
year was very inferior.
Football has been more popular
than ever the past season The grade

The attendance has increased and the

KENYON CONES FIRST.
After a careful study the writer
has selected the following players Tor
the all-South Atlantic eleven. Ken
yon. Of Georgetown, and Niche, OF
Virginia, are placed at the ends. Both
of these players are strong on the
defense; both are deadly tacklers. and
both of them have the weight and
speed to guard safely the extreme
| wings.
Moore, of Washington and Lee. ana
Pritchard, of the University OF North
| Carolina, are awarded the tackle po-
sitions on this mythical team. Moore
was the best tackle in the South At
lantic section. Both Of these lads are
| finished football players. A good
tackle knows how to use his hands on
the defense, and these players nave
mastered this art. Frequently these

Both are hard, consistent players.

was of great help to his team on
the offense. Fenwick was superb on
the defense.
SMITH BEST CENTER.
Smith, of v. NJ. l.. was the star
Of the centers. This young cadet
was in every play. He could open
holes on the offensc; he was or In.
