Georgetown will go to Annapolis

Several old foot bali rivalries in the
North will be settled this week enc.
The Penn ate-PennSylvania rivalry Is
0ane. State College has been going DOWN
to Philadelphia for many years 10 meet
the Cquakers and to say that rivalry
between them is intense is puttlng IL
mildly. State College people, II tney
win from Penn, consider the season

the remainder of the year. They can
even stand a beating at the hands OF
Pittsburgh II they are able to look BACK
with satisfaction on a victory over tne
Ouakers. And Pennsylvania mao ratnsr

with Cornell is just foot ball rivalry,

incidentally, Brown seems to nave a
chance TO duplicate its victory OF last

Vanderbilt has the biggest opportunity
this week in Southern game. II the
Commodores can beat Georgia Tech
they will be travelling a good gait
toward a Southern championship. They
still will have to face Tennessee, but
that contest is not likely TO seem so
difficult If the Tech game can be won.
If Vanderbilt does win from Tech, IN
all probability the Observation-Disclosures
game will decide the Southern cham-
pionship. Vanderbilt has an even
chance, at least, as it undoubtedly has
far better eleven than was predicted
for 1t at the beginning of the season
Georgia goes North TO play New York
University. The contest seems to be
something of a stand-off, with the
writer inclined to think that Georgia
has an even chance to win. That is
different from what even most Southern
people think because even in the South
New York University is being picked.
However, a good deal will depend
on the outcome of the contest for
Georgia. Having beaten Yale it just
would not do for Georgia to take a
whipping at the hands of New York
University, especially after the rather
checkered route N. Y: u. has been trav-
cling and the brilliant record made by
Yale.
