will get all the trouble in that they
About the only other game that m;
test is that in which North Caroiin;

of the season in Washington are list

of Maryland and Virginia Polytechnic
Institute. Johns Hopkins plays at
Baltimore what may prove its most
most difficult game of the year, Uni
versity of Pittsburgh being scheduled
Az its opponent. University of Nir-
ginia goes over to LeNin gton to face
Virginia Military Institute. and no
doubt the 81 to 0 victory scored last
season by the Lexington cadets leaves
considerable in the minds of Virginia
students that should be wiped out.
Washington and Lee goes to Lexing-

intersectional game. on October IS,
this time being listed to meet Penn
sylvania at Philadelphia. George

W. and l., Plays Virginia..
Washington and Lee at Virginia is
the most important contest booked
November I. Virginia Polytechnic In
stitute plays at Clemson, South Caro-
lima at North Carolina and George
town at Greenville, s. c., against Fur.
man University. And right here it
may as well be said that Furman
probably will not be soft picking"
for any team. Catholic University
and MARYLAND have practically a clear
field for their annual game, with
which the new stadium at Broollland
is to be officially opened.
Georgetown and Maryland get op
portunities on November S 10 win
places in the sun, the former in a
game scheduled with Pennsylvania
and the latter at Yale Two big
games are scheduled in North Caro-
lina-Virginia Polytechnic Institute
at North Carolina State and Virginia
Military Institute at University or
North Carolina. Virginia plays at
home with the University of Georgia
as it's opponent.
What promises to be hard battles
are scheduled for the majority of
teams November Is, and South At
lantic elevens will not be exceptions.
Virginia goes over to Virginia Poly
technic Institute, and the occasion
will be SO exceptional that al the
natives of that section, including a
big part of the population of Roa-
noKe, are likely to attend North
r.
ponent of the University of Maryland
at College Park. Georgetown enter
tains the Sd Army Corps here; WASH
ington and Lee meets West Virginia
on the neutral field at Charleston,
w. Va, and Virginia Military Insti-
tute has a game scheduled with Uni
versity of Kentucky at Lexington.

larly for thirty years. Maryland and

brief resume, think of what
schedule which includes Virginia at
Harvard. Maryland at Yale, George
town at Pennsylvania, North Caro-
lima at Yale, Virginia at Pennsylvania,
North Carolina State at Penn State,
Virginia Military Institute at Georgia
Tech. Washington and Lee at Florida,
Virginia Polytechnic Institute vs..
Alabama Polytechnic Institute, offers
those interested in South Atlantic
foot ball, not considering the big
games within the section itself, such
as North Carolina VS.. Virginia. vir-
ginia Polytechnic Institute VS.. Vir-
ginia Military Institute. Maryland VS..
Washington and Lee North Carolina
and so on, with many other contests
of just as great Importance.
Foot ball. as far as~attractive games

interest for followers of South At
lantic elevens.
