Cards Substitute General
Gets Big Chance Facing
Chattanooga Eleven.
BY H. c. BYRD.

versity apparently is up against a
difficult proposition in facing the
University of Chattanooga and
may have its troubles. However,
American University should win
from Bridgewater, and George
Washington, unless CataWba is
considerably different from the
usual small Carolina college,
ought to run up a fair count.
The Catholic University Chattanooga
game may result in a walkaWay tor
c. U. Such a result is not impossible
by any means, but if it turns out that
way the surprise will be just as great
to Head Coach Dutch Bergman as to
others. The BrooklanGers, if th1y
anticipated an easy contest, or any
thing that resembles one, should not
have put in the hard licks they have
this week. 1t is doubtful if any c. u
foot ball team has ever been pre-
pared for a game with more care and
meticulous attention than the one now
working under Dutch Bergman.
THATTAyOOGA comes here with an
~ eleven that has swept through the
S. 1. T. A. for two years with the
only one game this Fall. to Tennessee
by two touchdowns. And Tennessee
senerally is thought to have an even
abance against Alabama. To those who
saw something of the power of the Ala
pacA eleven last week, the game Chat
SA.ooga played against Tennessee ought
to be something Of criterion of what
to expect here.
c. U. is to start minus its regular
quarterback. How much that may af-
feet the offense cannot be foretold
Maybe it will break down the swift dart
ing strokes with which the running
attack is bolstered, and then again Pat
Montague may rise TO the occasion and
could win. The game ought to be by
far the best around here. with the ex-
ception of the one Navy is to play at
Annapolis with Ohio University.
CEORGE WASHINGTON ought to
" win by three or four touchdowns
unless Catawba College is much
better than might ordinarily be ex-
pected. And, of course, it may be just
that, as Coach Charley Moran has a
reputation for accomplishing great
turned out fine teams at Centre Col
lege, ard rumor has had it more than
once that when he took charge at
Catawba he intimated to the author
itles there that he would turn a SIM
liar trick for them.
Such a surprise result as Catawba
winning from George Washington, how
ever, would seem to be remote. The
Colonials certainly ought to be better
than their visitors of tomorrow, and, as
already has been said, should take the
long end Of the score rather easily.
American University probably Is In
a better position in regard to material
than Bridgewater College, and, if SO, it
ought to get away with victory. Coach
Walter Young is something of master
in turning out good teams without much
material, and with an even break he
should have a new scalp to hang up
when the sun sets tomorrow.
CGEoRGEToWN, Maryland and
" Gallaudet play away and all three
are slated to go into their games
on the short end Of the odds. The
chance to win that either OF the
others, though it is said not to rate
ANYTHING like an even bet. Maryland
against Duke will be facing a much
more experienced eleven, and undoubt-
edly Is the under dog. However, AZ
times Maryland elevens have risen TO
the occasion under such conditions and
plaved fine foot ball. Gallaudet is
pretty sure to go down before the La
Sale team at Philadelphia.
Georgetown may come through with
a much better showing than is looked
for. Despite the apparent odds under
which it will enter the play, q George
town victory would not De such an uil-
looked for result.
MARYLAND is sending in q revampeo
line against Duke, and on what that
line may do depends almost entlrely
what Maryland will do. The Old Liners
have backs, who, given half chance,
can gain ground, and whether or not
the new line will produce that chance
should tell the story.
GONE Of the greatest games OF the
y year, as far as the South ana Nortn
and Middle West are concerned, may
he nlaved tomorrow. In the South. for
instance. there is likely to be nothing
ali season to transcend the meetings be-
tween Vanderbilt and Tulane, Ten
nessee and Alabama. These four were
nicked at the beginning of the year as
the cream of the South and about the
only game likely to surpaSs either o!
these is that between Tennessee ano
Vanderbilt the second Saturday IN
November, If these two elevens are VIC
tors Saturday.
TIP north most Of the big schools
~ hook up with rivals their equal IN
power and versatility. Harvard
meets its first real opponent wneh Fenil
State marches out on Soldiers fleo
and. while the latter has not measured
up in some time to its great teams "
former seasons, it Is not mean op-
ponent at any time. This Is Harvards
first real 1882 test and on how well y
emerees will be the basis on which II
is compared with Yale, Army and otn-
ers it is to play later in the Fall.
PRINCETON goes up against another
big school, this time Cornell. Inc
gTigers failed last week, as far as
winning Is concerned, but those nter-
ested in foot ball fortunes IN jungle
town are of the opinion that CONSIDER
able was shown that indicates mucn 1ol
the future. Cornell, since its frst game
has not appeared to be any too strong
although this may be due someWnaG M ee
the fact that Head Coach Gil Dobie has
not been in active charge, due to illness
PENNSYLVANIA and Dartmouth are due
for another battle. Neither has beer
defeated, although Dartmouth won laS'
week by only one touchdown. Penr
won both its games easily. The Quakers
have been expecting to turn out fine
eleven, and tomorrow's contest should
show how close they may come to real
idng their expectations.
Southern Methodist University play!
another intersectional game in the
Dallas school has not been doing a.
well this year as in some past seasons
Army probably will strike something
