| Incidentally. both elevens are maze
up of excellent material, some OF the
best in the South.
Virginia Is more or less up in the air
about it's game with South Carolina.
II hardly knows whether to think it
should have things fairly easy be-
cause of weakness shown by South
Carolina against Maryland. or whether
| it may be up against a stronger eleven
than the score the South Carolina.
Maryland game indicates. In reality,
Virginia will face a team of excep-
tional potential strength, but which
is not working together as 1t may be
later. South Carolina has line that
is good and some capable backs, but
it's offense Is not strong. Virginia un'
doubt edly is much more capable than
its game with Georgia indicated, as
it's defeat by that margin was to no
small extent due to it's own mistakes.
Georgia. according to those that
have seen 1t play. has one of the
greatest eIevens in its history. 1t has
been predicted that it will beat Yale
tomorrow at New Haven, and that
prediction was made by no less a per-
son than Wallace Wade. coach at
Alabama. Wade figures that Georgia
win. The Crackers are at New
Haven today and working out in the
Yale bowl. On two or three occasions
Georgia has put up fine games In the
North. 1t came within an ace of
beating Harvard three or four years
ago and two years ago was a thorn
in the side of Yale all through close
struggle.
Tulane and Georgia Tech at Atlanta
, should he one of the best games in
the South tomorrow. Both have been
showing considerable strength, Tulane
apparently being much better this
season than usual, while Georgia Tech
seldom is weak. Georgia Tech may
have years when it does not win many
games. but it is very, very seldom
that any eleven is strong enough to
win from it by anything more than
touchdown or so.
Alabama gets it's first test in a game
with Louisiana State. and while the
latter seems stronger than 1t was
year ago. and everybody in that sec
ton seems to be predicting great
things for it, in all probability 1t will
not make much headway against Ala
bama Seeing the situation from this
distance. this may be way Off from
the true comparison between the two
elevens, but when the dust has cleared
away it is likely that Alabama will
be victor by fair margin.
