MOhawks Meet Southern A.C,,
And Georgetown Takes
On Mercury.

OF the many games scheduled in
the Independent football ranks next
Sunday. two hold the interest of the
District fans. as the result of the
bearing on deciding this years
championship.
One is between the champion Mo-
hawks and the Southern A. c. of
the Southwest. billed to be played
at Union League park. The other
is the tifr between the Mercury A
Z. and the newly organized George
town A. c. which gave the grand
old dope walloping by holding the
Mohawks to a scoreIess tie. The
Georgetown outfit is pointing for
another meeting with the Mohawks.
To earn the right to mingle with the
champions in another matinee grid
entertainment, the team from across
the creek must remove the Mercury
combination from it's path. And 1t
VIII not be an easy task for George
town or any other club to knock
Mercury from further competition.
To date the Mercury eleven has
not been defeated and some fans
claim the club has not even been
pressed. The Southwest team pos
sesses one of the swiftest running
attacks of any club in the District
and also a strong defense.
Many of the wise ones" believe
the Mohawks will have a busy
afternoon with the Southern A. C.
