WESLEYAN HOPES To HOLD STATE

Impossible But States Low Score
VIII BE Gratifying

Buckhannon, w. Va. Sept. l?.-Sews
Of unusual interest blossomed tortn
from the ordinarily quiet Methodist 1901

that Il was impossible 10 build up

that has been carefully groomcd FOR TWO
seasons, made UP OF experienced play
ers.
what score do you predict" was
asked Of the Methodist coach. II we
hold West Virginia TO 2o-o score

Bob then gave his reasons and they
do not lack logic.
Last years said Higgins, wesleyan

Now, there are those that agree with
Higgins and those who don't. but ma
iority feel that the Coach ought to know
what he Is talking about. Too many
grid fans feel that Higgins has entered
