CHARLOTTESVILLE VA, Nov. %
-Virgtnia's gridlron supremacy over
the Tarhecls from North Carolina
was re-established here today when
the Orange and Blue eleven wiped
out the defeats OF tho last two years
and won n clear-cut 14-to-o victory
over their ancient rivals, bringing
their grand total OF games won
since 1892. to eighteen out OF TWEEN
ty-flve.
The VirEinians had the edge dur
ing the entire four periods and the
Tarheels failed to get within seriou,
striking distance OF the Orange and
Blue goal at any timc during the
game. The stubborn defense put uo
by the opposing lines early forced the
battle into punting duel with
Rinehart kicking for Virginia, and
Lowe, the Carolina star and main
stay. doing tho toe work for his
eleven. The consequence of these
tactics was sec-saw contest
throughout with the ball in Carolina
territory for the major portion of the
time. Rinehnrt had slight ad-
vantage. The punting. coupled
with the excellent work of Captain
Niche and Newman on the ends. was
big factor In Virginia's victory.
Witt and Dunn Feature.
Tho work OF two Richmond BOYS
playing on the Orange and Blue
eleVen was also feature. Witt at
quarter played his best game OF the
season. His generaiship in running
the team was fawless and he con-
trihuted one Of the two touchdowns

darlington. Dunn at full. playing n
sood part OF the game, did some
good line plunginy which netted sub
stantial gains.
Nirglnia's two scores came In tba
second and fourth periods. Ex-

'inians withstood the first attack by

Tsrheeln Threaten to Score.
The only threat Carolina made IN
score came at the end OF the tbir3
quarter when Lowe and Sheperd com
pleted three forward passes IN
rapid succession. netting about
twenty yards. and Lowe broke
through for eight moro. Tho yir-
ginia stands became uneasy. but On
pleman knocked down the next at
tempted pass and tho whistle endea
the quarter. The Carolinians were
not able to get started again af,er
this.
Oppleman was easily the yIrrin.,
star, his offensive work being the
best and most consistent OF the after
noon. Captain Niche. Newman and
Hall put up great games in the yir
ginia 1ine. figuring conspicuousiy In
most OF the plays.
Lowe bore the brunt of the ofrense
for the Tarheels and seemed to be the
only back to make any gains for ths
White and Blue team. Sheperd and
Morris, on the ends. and Captain Har-
rell and Poindexter. in tho line. put up-
great defensive games for the Tar
heels and were responsible for the
slight gains made by the virgipians
through the line.
Virginia made eight nrst downs to
Cardinals five. Neither team showed
PARTICULAR adeptness at forward pass
Ing. Ivbout dozen were tried by
each team and only a fourth OF them
made.
