SOCCER CLASH HERE
TODAY OPENS SEASON

Clan MacLennan and Concord Soc
Ger Clubs are to clash this afternoon
at 3 o'clock on the Monument Grounds
In the first round of the United States
Foot Ball Associations national pro-
fessional cup tie tournament. The
match will mark the formal opening
of the soccer season here.
While the two Capital teams are
battling, preliminary games in the tour
nament also will be In progress In ap-
proximately so other cities In the
United States.
Indications are that the match here
will prove a bang-up affair, as there
is a keen rivalry between the teams,
and they appear to be exceptionally
we'll matched.
However, Concord will enter the game
with the advantage Of having its play
ers in better condition as the result of
them having played soccer throughout
the year, except for one month during
the Summer, and of them being more
experienced through having played to-
gether in some dozen matches.
Clan MacLennans probable lineup
follows:
Goal, Blanche: right half, Graham;
left half, Towers. right half, Hodge;
center half, G. Faulds; left half, Full
lerton; outside right, Malloch; inside
right. Dryden; center, Mclean; inside
left, Gallagly; outside left Bruce.
Concords probably will start like this:
Goal Heise; right half, Mulhausen;
left half, Endress: right half, A. Heller
center half, Kuhner: left half, Fischer
outside right, Herath; inside right, L.
Konnell; center, E. Konnell; inside left,
Beyerlin; outside left, Horning.

home contest for the local collegians.
st. Johns presented brilliant array
of backs in Thompson Spring and w.
Lynch and had a strong and well
coached line which generally got the
jump on the visitors.
Randolph Macon gained little by
rushing, but at times the passes of Bry-

1t was on a pass to the latter that the
visitors scored their only touchdown, in
the third quarter.
The ST. Johns eleven. coached by
Tody. Riggs former Maryland player,
made an excellent showing today and
gave promise of being the strongest team
