down the line with a clean slate

Georgetown Is likely to enter

hard-working backfield, is expected
to trample Fordham into the sod.

Just how good Georgia Teen fs
against q real foe will be shown
Saturday at Annapolis. The At
lanta Yellowjackets are to tackle
that mammoth machine Bob Folwell
is driving. Odds are heavily on the
Middies. Georgetown Will have
shrewd eyes, possibly those Of
Exendine himself, watching every
move the Yellowjackets make, hop

| for the game at Atlanta on Novem-
ber II.
Georgetown is especially desirous
of winning this years game from
Georgia Tech. The Southerners
have steadily declined to come TO
Washington for q game with the
Hilltoppers. claiming that Atlanta
supports Tech much better than
washington does Georgetown.
There is considerable truth In this.
though Georgia Tech would prob
ably attract some 10000 specta.
tors at American League Park.
This is a much larger crowd than
Grant Field. at Atlanta, can accom-
modate.
Victory for Georgetown at At.
lanta this year might have con-
siderable weight with the Atlanta
authorities in deciding to come 20
Washington in 1923. Defeat would
kill the whole idea. Then Tech
could listen to the proposition the
Naval Academy will probably make
to Il, that Of playing next years
game here instead Of in Atlanta or
Annapolis.
However. Washington Is sure to
see the Navy eleven I'm action next

whether or not an offer Is made by
the Navy for a 1928 game In wash

In that event, a Georgetown VIC
