side enthusiastically. From the entire
freshman squad we have only half
dozen men new out for practice. Laney,
Rossiter and Edwards are about the
best of the freshman squad available.
Rrownlee. holder of the Southern Con-
ference record in the low hurdles, was
a second-string end last year and we
are going to try to make back out OF
him.
our passing is not likely to be very
good. but our punting Is pretty sure to
be considerably better than last year.
Our line should be as good as it was
then, although our backfleld probably
will fall short In that it will not have
any one ball carrier as capable as
Murray.
you realize that what I am telling
you is based somewhat on what nave
cleaned from the opinions OF others,
as 1 have not been with the squad long
enough to get real line on the men.
l do know. though, that having to play
South Carolina in our opening game,
with the game at Columbia, is not
particularly good way for us to open

a successful season as far as Durham
people are concerned Wade Is good
coach, has done good work everywhere
he has been, and will do well at Duke.
He may not have World-Deatlng team
this year, but eventually will put across
his job in big way.
WORD comes from Rehoboth Beach,
w Del, that Georgetown's squad is
rounding to in good shape, even
better than Coach Tom Mills at nrSt
expected. Mills has expressed himself
as being better than satisfied With the
present condition of his squad, although,
of course, this does not mean that Mills
predicts unusual success in winning
games.
The men now are going into their
second week of practice and are be-
ginning to learn what real foot ball
workouts mean. BY the time the squad
returns here September % it should
be reaching top form, as Mills has his
eve set on whipping the Western Mary
land College squad, which for the last
two wears has taken Georgetown
measure. That game Is Mills mrs.
objective, and really one of his main
oblectiveS
TOACH DUTCH BERGMAN of Cath

about his prospects. His men, too
are entering their second week OF prac'

early practice. Several of thu
regulars of last year have not showed
up, but are expected in today. Abou

not be back is Shinn, the best freshman
lineman Of last Fall. who has entered
Rutgers, it is said. It has also beer
rumored that Koelle. who played con
siderably at guard in 1880, may not re
turn, although for what reason Is no
known, as he is senior and due u

MARYLAND probably has the lightes
