4 little better than even. Probably
this would be true on what the Navy
has shown prior to this, but on Sat
urday the Navy is going to be diff
ferent from anything it has been pre-
viously, and the game ought to be
about evenly contested. with the
chance that the team which gets the
first good break will win.
Nobody doubts that Georgetown has
one of the strong teams of the east,
and Navy always is hard TO beat. as
Georgetown we'll knows. In 1915
GEORGETOWN went to Annapolis with
Z great eleven, expecting TO win Dy
two touchdowns, but 1t nn1shed WIN
the short end of a 13-to-7 count. the
Nays record this season has been
anything but good. and Coach Exen-
dine could do worse than mention that
1915 game to his men; overconndence
costs more foot ball games. possibly
than mistakes.
