BALTIMORE

BALTIMORE, Oct. 31.-Maryland
University and North Carolina en-
counter here today in Venable Sta

closely contested game. It is one
of the leading matches on the foot
ball schedules Of both teams, which
are members of the Southern Con-

Maryiand's record is not par
ticularly impressive to those look

distinguished themselves,
The Maryland goal has been
threatened many times in the four
games they have played but only
once has an enemy been able TO
cross it for a touchdown. Virginia
holds this distinction, having beaten
Maryland by a score Of to on
field so sloppy from rain that
a fair test of football ability was
out of the question.
North Carolina has been coming
along nicely and has pointed largely
for the Maryland clash. The Tar
heels are expected to make much
use of the forward pass. Maryland
Is depending on it's kickers, par
ticularly Big Bill Supplee, to make
1t hot for the Tarheels.
No matter what the outcome, it
is almost foregone conclusion that
the score will be small.

Harvard Wants II

"HERE is no apparent hostil-
ity at Harvard toward pro
u fessional football, if the fol-
lowing editorial comment in the
Harvard Crimson counts for any
thing:
Relatively small at the same
time are the complaints against
over-emphasis upon college base
ball." says the editorial, because
amateur baseball has been kept
in proper relation to the other as
poets of college life by the dwarf
ing presence of professional base
ball. During the fall season, no
such saving counter attraction has
existed. But at last professional
football teams have begun to ap-
pear, and their growth should be
encouraged rather than frowned
upon. For only "when football
teams legitimately professional
come to occupy the same space in
the public prints and the same
interest in the public mind as Is
now held by professional baseball
will the college football teams of
the country be able to return to

young but formidable team Of the
Apache A. G. at Union Park.
1t is not yet forgotten by The
Mercury players that II was thu
Apache team that gave them tleiI
