has been doing about 100 per cent

Pennsylvania Is building toward the

will try to be at its best then. The
Ithaca machine, under Dobie. is s-s-

probably is also looking forward to
an afternoon on Franklin Field.
Virginia Polytechnic Institute and
North Carolina University Saturday
justified statements that have been
made that they are the two strongest
slevens in the South Atlantic section.
Both have the hest elevenS they have
ever produced, hav good quartrbacks.

lines. V. T. Is victory In it's game
with North Carolina state was eN-
pected and it was generally thought
that the result would be decisive. and
it was. V. P. I. made the unusual
number of twenty-siS first downs.
North Carolina did just what was en-
pected Of IT. won in hard. close
struggle.
II North Carolina wins from Eir-
giria on THANKSGIVING day it will vie
with Virginia Polytechnic Institute
for the south Atlantic title. because
for the first time In years II seems
that there are other teams in the sec

start In game tomorrow With the
Blue and Gray. 1t is unfortunate that
one of them is not to meet the HILL
toprers here.
Georgetown md Maryland lost
games again last week. The glue and
GRAY was trimmed again BY Georgia
Tech, and Maryland went down before
Yale. The Blue and Gray was unable
to cope with the fast attack of the
Atlanta school. and Maryland was
against too strong a combination TO
hope to accomplish more than it did.
This week Georgetown has anoth-
er tough game in Bucknell and the
University of Maryland goes over 10
Baltimore to face hopkins in re-
sumption of relationships with that
school after lapse of year. The
Marylanders have gone through
long siege of hard games and nat
urally are more or less battered. but
will begin this week in the most
earnest kind of work in preparation
for the game they would rather win
than all the others on their schedule.
Unusual. indeed, IL It for two teams
to tie in SO many games a $ have Vir-
Rinia and Georgia. In the last four
years they have played one game in
which Georgia was victor and three
in which the schools have finished on
even terms. Virginia seems grad
ually to be developing toward its
Thanksgiving day zenith. when it
will do battle with North Carolina.
Some time ago v. NJ. !. won from Vir-
and the result of the game Saturday
between North Carolina and the
cadets it may we'll be understood
that virginia's task is not going to
be the easiest in the world.
George Washington has won on the
last two Saturdays. defeating Gal
laudet and Catholic University, but
this week the Hatchetites have their
work cut out for them when they
face V. NJ. J. in the Central stadium.
And 1t may we'll be known that
Y. N. l. has a real foot bail team
and one which should give fine eX-
tibition. 1t has a strong offensive
eleven anG one of the best individual
players in: the south in White, it's big
fullback.
