Sanford, dean of the university and the
man responsible for the development
of athletics there, in which he said
that Georgia is not as strong as 1t was
being given credit for and that it would
not go through undefeated. He also
said that probably it would strike
game before the end of the year. in
which 1t would lose by q decisive
margin. And the result of the Tulane
game proves that the dean knew pretty
well what he was talking about.
PRINCETON came near slipping one
L over on Yale at that. The Tiger,
possibly as q final tribute to Bill
Roper, veteran Of many campaigns,
showed that he Is a dangerous animal
to fool with, even If battered and beat
en- until hardly recognizable as his real
SELF Princeton might easily have won
that game, as the game was played,
which is indication that Bill Roper
may have had more up his sleeve than
anybody expected. Anyway he trotted
out more than was looked for. Last
week the writer got the hint that
Princeton might not be as weak as was
generally thought, and indicated that
surprise was not impossible. Had
Princeton won 1t would have been one
Of the greatest upsets foot ball has
known.
a LMOST as much Of an upset as
IA the Georgia Tulane game, which,
by the way, probably was not so
much of an upset after all, because
Tulane really has good foot ball team,
was the defeat Of North Carolina by
Davidson. That Is one result that no
body expected, as Davidson has not by
any comparison at any time shown
Ia
be strong enough to- whip the Tarheels.
North Carolina apparently has not
been going along so well since late
October, as persons who watched 1t
beat North Carolina State, which has
been q consistent loser all season, say
that it was lucky to pull out Of that
game successfully.
VIRGINIA got the long end Of the
v score against Washington and Lee
in q game that still stands the
test of long rivalry. The Cavaliers,
according to press reports, played about
the best foot ball they have shown this
season.
HARVARD surely took one on the
i i chin from Holy Cross. A beat
ing by that margin for either
YaleS or Harvard from any other New
England college is just one of those
things that don't happen-but 1t did.
The Crimson probably was thinking
more Of Yale than Of the Worcester
collegians.
6ORNELL and Pennsylvania played
~ their last time prior to their an
nual Thanksgiving battle at Frank
lin Field. The Ithacans succumbed to
Dartmouth in what must have been a
wild offensive game, the count being
Is to 10, while Penn mopped up with
Georgia Tech, which has played about
as erratic foot ball since it opened its
schedule as any team in the South.
Right now there does not seem to be
much to choose as between Penn and
Cornell, and a wild crowd Of alumni of
both universities is likely to crowd the
stands the last Thursday in the month.
WHATEVER may have happened in
w previous games In which Colgate
has had difficulty against SYRIA
cllBe, there was no ink around Arch
bold Stadium Saturday, not for the
Hamilton men. Colgate got started
right and kept going that way and
finally wound up four touchdowns to
the good. The Syracuse Colgate affair

stands IN line for the Western Con-

Illinois took its first conference game

the Pacific Coast championship BY
