West Virginia University, almost
hilar!ously enthusiastic over the
brilliant start of it's football team
as a contender for first honors in
the East, will send to Washington
next Saturday not only great
gridiron machine to battle George
town. but at least 5000 rooters to
back it up.
At the mountaina request,
1000 tickets were dispatched by
Georgetown football manager to
Morgantown today, and it is said
there is a possibility that more
will be needed to supply the de-
mand.

Allegheny had given Pitt a real
struggle, and having crushed the
Washington and Lee eleven. that

its first really formidable contest
of the campaign.
West Virginia scouts who saw
Georgetown held to a 6to-6 tie by
Pitt reported that Georgetown under
estimated the foes strength after
the first period and let its fighting
fire fade too quickly, not to be
famed again into a blaze until 1t
was slightly too late.
1t was feared by some of George
towns hackers that the Blue ana
Gray would regard too lightly the
ever-fighting Pittsburgh Panthe"s
and 1t is now felt that Georgetown
made a mistake that will not be e.
peated. With disappointment over
failure to whip Pittsburgh about tor
gotten in preparation for a big
chance to recoup, the old zip has re-
turned to the Hilltop campus.
1t will be homecoming day for
Georgetown next Saturday and
should the Blue and Gray triumph
it would mean a hot time in the
old town that night, at least for
Georgetown alumni. A college
celebration such as Washington
has not seen in many a year is
plausible prospect.
And West NirGinia's sons will be
prepared to whoOp it up, too. Led
by an 80-piece band. the Noun
taineer roOters will parade from the
Union Station to their hotel and
from the hotel TO the Griffith
