One of the best games ever
PLAYED at Gallaudet is looked for
by Roy J. Stewart, former Gal
laudet athlete and for years
one of the closest followers and
strongest supporters of Gallaudet
athletics. His opinion is expressed
thus:
Last year we beat Shepherd College
in the second half but only after the
hardest kind of game. This year both
elevens are stronger, II comparative
scores count for anything. Also 1T
seems that Shepherd College is trying
TO make us somewhat overconf1dent.
Little Word from Shepherd.
"Our manager wrote to that school
and asked for the lineup and also for
the record of the team, so that we could
furnish 1t to the newspapers. He did
not get the lineup, and all the Shep-
herd manager said about his teams
record was that it had had fair sea-
son and had beaten Bridgewater by
couple Of touchdowns. AS matter OF
fact they beat Bridgewater by 33 to 9,
and beat Shenandoah by about 40 to q.
with the exception Of Hokanson,
who twisted his ankle little against
Eusquehanna last week, the Gallaudet
boys are in better condition than when
they beat SuSquehanna. We expect
Eokanson to play, and it was he who
threw the passes last week, although
the press gave the credit to Williams.
Williams was left at home with a bad
knee and Hokanson wore Williams Jer-
sey. Roy Parke is back at left tackle
and Is certain to be worth watching.
He and Bilbo Monaghan, left end, play
their positions brilliantly. Wurdenham
and Grinnell on the other side OF the
line are not so spectacular, but just as
effective.
1--WE are very much pleased over the
record of our team this year, and the
best. The game also may be one OF
Record Is Good.
Gallaudet's record is one of which 1t
may well feel proud. With numbers OF
the schools it plays. the record OF the
team certainly is exceptional and re-
fleets real credit ON the players ana
on its coach, Teddy Hughes.
Against st. Johns in the opening
rarne on October IL, despite the fact
that st. Johns had been in training ior
q much longer time than Gallaudet, the
Annapolis eleven was barely able TO WIN
by 2 to 0, the margin of safety, the
smallest margin by which q toot pall
game can be won.
Then the Kendsll Greeners went out
10 Maryland and gave the Old Liners
one Of the hardest battles they nave
had, In fact, it is said that If Mary
land had not got very fortunate break
in scoring one of its touchdoWns the
score would have been z to 6: instead
of Is to 6. Then the kendall Sre cen
eleven went on a scoring rampage the
following week to beat Shenandoah py
80 to o. then won from Baltimore Uni
Versity by to 0, lost to Temple UNI
versity and last week defeated SuSque-
hanna University by IA to z:
If the Kendall Green eleven winds up
tomorrow with victory it will lay away
its equipment until next year with a
feeling of pride in its accomplishments.
Indiyidualiy and collectively, the play
ers NAV rest content in the satisfaction
that they have fought good night.

Only one game is to be played in the
Southern Conference, that being be-
tween South Carolina and Florida. The
latter ought to be a victor by a fair
margin. In the South Atlantic section
two of the larger teams have games
scheduled North Carolina State at Villa
nova, Duke University at home with
Wake Forest North Carolina state is
not likely to stand much chance against
Villanova, but Duke is fairly sure TO WIN:
College elevens in all sections Of the
South will spend tomorrow in their
final hard workouts in preparation Tor
their Thanksgiving day battles. AND
these Thanksgiving day contests are not
only among the biggest Of the year, put
certainly from standpoint OF the con-
BENDING teams. the most important

more remarkable strides in the last
