but despite that the Charlottesville
institution may put across a sur
prisingly good game. Virginia seems
to be gradually developing into a
strong combination, and Georgia will
have to look well to it's colors if it
wants the long end of the score.
Probably Georgia Is not SO much bet

portcrS of the OLD Dominion univer-
sity think.

OF course. the top-line game to-
morrow in the east is that in which
Princeton gives battle on it's home
field to Harvard. Pre-game predic-
tions seem to favor Princeton. but
one thing should he remembered in

pointing for any particular game
Harvard the middle of October is an
entirely different eleven from Har-
ward the middle or latter part of NO
Vember. Any game that Harvard
prepares for especially is game
that Harvard is going to come very
close to winning. This is not a pre-
diction that Harvard Will win, but,
rather, a simple statement OF what
Harvard is when it desires to be at
its best. Princeton has been coming
rapidly and will be much more for
midable against the Crimson than in
any contest it previously has played.
Out in the middle west two games
are scheduled which should develop
foot ball of the best kind-Notre
Dame VS.. Nebraska. and Wisconsin
vs.. Illinois. Illinois seems bent on
attaining conference hamplonShlp,
while Wisconsin is said to have the
best team that has represented it in
years.
The game in the middle west to
which WaShingtonianS Will look with
greatest interest. though is that at
Ann ArbOr between Michigan and the
Quantico Marines. Michigan expects
to win the contest without much trou
BILE. but the Marines have gone to the
game with the idea of giving every
thing they have against the WolVer-
ines. And anybody who has seen
Goettge in action knows full well
that the Marines have at least one
big gun they can shoot.
Georgia Tech appears at State Col
lege, Pa, against the Pennsylvania
State College. but hardly has shown
strength enough to warrant an eX-
pectation that il can hope for much
Tech this year does not seem to be

Pennsylvania has game with La
fayette which is not likely to provide
an easy afternoon TOR it. The East
onians have a real foot ball team, as
exploits in all their games indicate.
And if there is one thing Lafayette
would dearly like to do it is beat
Penn.
Cornell should not have much diff
fculty beating Columbia at New York.
The Gothamites have shown nothing
that would indicate they have the
least chance to win.
Down i'm Tennessee a contest is to
be staged at Nashville that annually
has all the earmarks of a Harvard
Yale affair. 1t is the game between
Vanderbilt and University of Ten
nessee. Rivalry between these uni
verSitieS is just as great as between
