VIRGINIA WILL BID
TO "SAVE" SEASON
Victory Over North Carolina Would
Atone for What Has Gone
Before.

T UNIVERSITY, Va, November Is.
Virginia and North Carolina
will both take time to catch
their breath this week before
settling down to prepare for their
thirty-fourth annual gridiron meeting.
This year the Thanksgiving day game
is scheduled for Lambeth Field.
The Carolinians have won the last
three games and are doped to take the
one this season. If Virginia is to have
it otherwise they'll have to keep busy
through all the nine practice periods
that remain before the holiday.
Virginia had hoped to have her new
stadium ready for this contest The
Cavaliers dedicated the keenan,
Stadium down in Chapel Hill in 1927
when they were defeated by the Tar
Heels for the first time since 1922.
They wanted TO return the compliment.
But the stadium can't be completed
until next Spring and 1t won't be dedi-
Gated until in the Fall of 1881. That
lets North Carolina out as far as the
dedication is concerned. But it does
not mean that the game here won't

place on the new field.
Virginia will be out TO redeem q
poorer than average season by downing
the North Carolinians. Most of the
side line experts will say it can't be
done. But the Cavalier players them
selves think differently. They'll be
fighting their heads of to prove that
they are right
North Carolina, on the other hand,
hasn't had all the success that was
expected of them when the Fall cam
paign got under way. They'll be scrap
ping all the harder to swamp the Vir-
ginians as they did last Thanksgiving.
If they can do this and then 60 on.
to defeat Duke they'll have another
record to be proud Of, despite losses
to Georgia and Tennessee.
Neither team has a game for next
Saturday. This day has been set aside
for the annual contest between Vir-
ginia and Carolina first-year teams to
be played in Chapel HILL Last Fall
the young Cavaliers defeated the Tar
Babies, 8 10 0. This season neither
club has had outstanding success.
Both win be ending their campaigns
with this contest.
