DARK CLOUDS HANG

over Wesleyan In the shape OF the
Statc.Wesleyan game scheduled for
Saturday are pretty dark, Wesleyan
football hopes are not all set on the
opening game alone. The Metho.

Saturday Wesleyan will act as
hosts to the Davis & Elkins Col.

been given to the opening game
that Methodist coaches now find
themselves in a situation that Is not
far from being IN alarming one.
Reports eminatlns from ElkIns
are scant, out indicate that the D.

signs Of much life, and down they
will swoop on the Wesleyan eleven
next week, with everything they
have. and the Methodists came
nearly being caught unawares. The
Senators have given Wesleyan
some pretty stiff fights in years
past, and now with OZARK horse
signs on the horizon, are giving the
Wesleyan crowd some worries.
Just what shape the Wesleyan
team Is going to be in after they
come out of the battle with West
Virginia Saturday is another thing
that may figure largely In the D. &
E. meeting. Last year the Wes-
leyan eleven was 80 badly battered

games which should have been won

DR.. CIV. Spears, head coach OF the

would be the ousting Of Nardiccl in

also a possibility that Quarles may
