South Carolina to take up his new
| duties. Driver was in charge during
the two years that South Carolina beat
Virginia, and Driver himself is Vir-
ginia man. That Virginia, in Drivers
first year there. was able to turn the
tables undoubtedly produces in his
heart something akin to very COM
Portable feeling, especially as Driver
himself is a Virginia alumnus.
/ CLEMSON continued its winning way
~ by trimming Auburn. which was
expected to have an exceptionally strong
eleven, scoring four touchdowns against
one. About nine chances out of ten
Clemson will prove something of a dark
horse in Southern Conference circles
and likely will give all its opponents
good deal more than they are looking
for.
VALE ran up bigger score on Yer
mcnt than New York University
did. The Dark Blue counted SO points
before it was through marching up and
down the gridiron in what was hardly
more than a tag race, with Vermont
doing very little tagging
Harvard counted against Bates, but
not by such big margin. However,
the margin, which was around so, was
| sufficient.
Princeton did not score a touchdown
against Amherst until the last period,
and then won by only Z to 0. How
ever, that should not be taken as a
real criterion of what :Princeton's
strength will be later in the year. It is
| never Roper's policy to win by big
margins in his early games, and prob
! ably he did not expect to win by a big
margin yesterday, although possibly he
may not have looked for such a close
game.
COLGATE went out to Madison and
gave Wisconsin a real struggle. the
latter winning by margin of Ia to 6.
The Madison eleven had it's hands full
to dispose of the New Workers., which
probably should not be considered as
anything very unusual. as Colgate has
always had something of a habit of
giving the big schools their hands full
in games in which it faces them.
JOHNS HOPKINS is having hard time
getting started. The Baltimoreans
have some of their stellar lights out of
the game because of scholastic diff
culties. and SO far they have not scored
a point. They lost to Lehigh. 26 to O.
and to Juniata, to O. Unless Hopkins
gets eligible couple of the men it
now has ineligible. in all probability it

flames in the far South went on
about as expected. Tulane had a
hard time disposing of Texas A and M
by margin of three points, and
Georgia Tech was rather an easy victor
over Mississippi A. and M. Vanderbilt
got away with its game without much
difficulty and so did Tennessee. There
was nothing to indicate any change in
the preseason sentiment that Florida:
Georgia Tech, North Carolina and Ten
neSsee would be the four leading elevens
in the Southern Conference, with the
exception possibly that Tulanes defeat
OF Texas A. and M. indicates sufficient
strength to make the number of pros
poets tive instead of four.
