The Washington times., 1921-08-22

On Saturday, October 8, George
Washington will get into the scramble
with Western Maryland, while Ursi-
nus is tackling the Hilltoppers at
Georgia avenue. Catholic University,
whose prospects are said to be excel
lent, will open its season against the
Norfolk Naval Training Station eleven
at Hampton Roads on the same after
noon. Western Reserve, from Ohio,
will be the Navy's opponent.
The Brooklanders' first home game
will be played on October Is against
st. Mary's. On that day little West
minister will be Georgetown's oppo-
nent, but it's dollars to doughnuts
that the crowd will all be over at An
napolis to see the Princeton Tigers
clash with Bob Folwell's middies. The
Princeton-Navy game will be the most
important of the year for this vicinity.
Maryland VIII Start.
Maryland. which has many follow
ers here, will get into action at Col
lege Park on October IS, meeting st.
Johns, of Annapolis. In the ancient
days the cadets ranked as high as
Maryland, but that was in the ancient
days. Times have changed.
week later, G. u. will battle Villa
nova at Brookland-and battle" is
right. These two elevens usually put
up the most logged kind of a scrap
from first to last and should draw q
large crowd. as there will be no other
game of moment here and West Vir-
ginia Wesleyan will not attract many
to Annapolis.
The most important game from a
strictly local viewpoint comes at Amer
Do
George Washington taking the field
against Georgetown. If the season I'D
to that time indicates any kind of a
close game, the ball park will hardly
be large enough to hold all those wish
ing to see it,
On the same day North Carolina and
Maryland will line up at College Park
in what should be a good game, while
Little Bethany will be knocked down
and dragged around at Annapolis.
Hilltoppers' Biggest.
