II Is rather interesting to note that
some of the northern papers have
given Johnson, University of North
praise for his remarkable play
against Yale last week. One writer
said that Johnson did everything that
good foot ball player could do, and
chen some. And another paper went
50 far as to say that had North Car
olina possessed another halfback as
clever as Johnson it would have de-
:eated Yale. Much greater praise
than that could hardly be inetet out
TO an individual.

yesterday, stopping off here on its
way to West Point for the game With
the Army. Auburn. as the school is
more Familiarity called farther south
has an aggregation of exceptionally
big men, possessing an even heavier
line and heavier backfeld than
Georgetown has. and showed in it's
signal practice a rather puzzling as
sortment of shifts. If Auburn works
those shifts smoothly, which, by the
way, it did not seem to do in practice,
1t may give the Army some trouble.

Auburn around the country for years

sectional contests and he knows
southern foot ball. His opinion of
Auburn was this:
Auburn has the best team in the
south this year and is generally ex-
pected to clean up Georgia Tech
Thanksgiving day. This game Satur-
day will be the first real test Auburn
has had, as its previous games have
been set-ups, and there's no telling
what 1t will do. Sherline, that big
fellow over there. is perhaps. with the
possible exception of Barron of Tech.

know that Georgia Tech is weaker
this year than in any other season
In the last ten. Georgetown stands
better chance to beat Tech this fall
than 1t has ever had in previous
games between the two schools
Blake is looked upon in his section
as the most prolific foot bail writer
in the south, and his opinions on the
various lines of sports are highly re-
garded by all those interested in
them.
