BY WILLIAM II. wRANEK, Jr.

~ HARLOTTESVILLE, Va, Sep
4 TENDER THESE eight MEM
bers of the Southern Confer
~ ence In the South Atlantic
States--Maryland, Virginia and
North Carolina-are going to mix 1t up
among themselves very generally during
the foot ball season that is just ahead.
Each team does not play all the
others. That would be almost impossi-
BILE with schedule of or 10 games.
But each will manage to cross the trail
Of the others frequently enough to en-
able the interested observer to form a
clear-cut opinion by the end of the Fall
as to just which one Is the best.
In addition, every one of them will
reach beyond mere local boundaries to
Of the somewhat distant members OF
the large S. c. family. Clemson,
Georgia, Georgia Tech, Florida, Ken
lucky, South Carolina and Tennessee
will all be played. several of them by
more than one team. South Carolina,
indeed, is something of a general favor
tie with this group, and has been
scheduled by four Of them.
Seven Teams Not Listed.
But there are seven of the confer
ence teams that none of them will play
this Fall-Alabama, Auburn, Mississippi
A. and NJ, Old Miss, Sewanee, Tulane
and Vanderbilt That's not too good for
either end of the conference, but 1t Is
one Of the difficulties that goes with
far flung boundaries.
These South Atlantic schools as a
whole seem to have great deal in
common, certainly more than in some
of the other geographical groupings
within the South. This was clearly
shown by the second successful season
Of the Tri-State Base Ball League Of
conference members.
North Carolina manages to find room
on q 10-game card for eight confer
tory, so to speak, and the two Georgia
members in addition. Virginia. v. M.
l. and Washington and Lee will play
six; Maryland. North Carolina State
and v. p. I. meet FIVE; Duke, with a
schedule made out before joining the
conference, will play only three.
The Tarheels, after a non-Confer-
ence opener. get going against Maryland
in College Park on october S. Georgia
Tech will be played in Atlanta one
week end, and the Georgia Bulldogs,
recovering from the excitement Of en-
tertaining Yale. on the next. Then
at home, South Carolina in Columbia,
Virginia at home and Duke in Durham
for "a closing December game.
Virginia starts her Conference card
against South Carolina in Columbia
on the first october Saturday. v. M. I.
and v. p. !. both come to Lambeth
Field and the Cavaliers go away to
play Maryland in College Park, Wash
ington and Lee in Lexington and to
end the season in Chapel Hill on
Thanksgiving afternoon.

Cadets will go down to Jacksonville on

Maryland has spent a week in prac-
tice without doing much to solve its
very real backfleld problem. The Old
Liners apparently have enough material
on hand for line that should give
good account of itself, but, unless some
body shows unexpected ability, the
backfield may not measure up. For
the last three years Maryland has had
Kessler, fine forward passer and fast
in running with the ball, and Snyder,
brilliant line breaker, who could also go
in an open field once he broke through.
To replace such players Is far from
easy. They were the backbone of Mary
lands attack last year and for two years
before that, and Marylands measure
of success this year depends largely on
the extent to which it can develop men
to fill these needs. Certainly no other
school in the section, with the excep-
ton of Virginia Military Institute, faces
as difficult a schedule as the Old Liners
with such q scarcity Of experienced ball
carriers.
With the exception Of the George
town. West Virginia and Maryland-Vlr-
ginia games, it is likely that the George
Washington-Ca Catholic University game
THANKSGIVING day will be the best of the
local schedule. The Brooklanders and
Colonials have been playing on Turkey
day for several years and good deal OF
rivalry has been developed. II both
have good elevens, their game should
be exceptionally attractive, especially as
it is the only one here that day; and
be it known that Thanksgiving day here
is one Of the best dates Of the foot ball
season.
Not much has been heard from
Mount ST. Mary's, washington College
and Boston College, the schools with
which Georgetown, Maryland and Cath
Ole University open their seasons.
Usually Georgetown and Maryland can
get away with their opening contests
without much difaculty, but once in a
while the teams they meet come out
with what for them are exceptional
combinations.
It will be remembered that two or
three years ago Mount st. Mary's came
down here and gave Georgetown the
scare of its life. So badly was George
whenever Mount St. Marys is men,
toned. The Blue and Gray barely won
that game and in the closing part Of
the contest was fighting desperately to
stave OF defeat. Washington College
three or four years ago came over with
strong outfit and Maryland had its
hands full.
Catholic University has something of
a different proposition. While 1t knows
very little of what Boston College will
have, it knows that it is in a real game
and that 1t must fight for everything
1t gets. The Brooklanders probably
face their hardest game right at the
beginning of the year.
