ELEVENS
ARRIVE HERE
FOR CANES

Three fine southern football
teams are today in Washington,
two Of them for final practice
sessions before meeting local foe
men tomorrow, the third to stage
a final practice before moving
into Pennsylvania for a game
there tomorrow.
The three teams are Wander
bilt, which meets Maryland, in
Griffith Stadium: Wake Forest,
which clashes with Catholic Uni
versity, in c. us bowl, and Sc
vance, which meets Penn State,
at State College, Pa.
With Vanderbilt'S squad came
its two All-America candidates,
the famed Dixie" Roberts, and
Leyendecker, 215-pound tackle,
hailed as the best lineman in the
South this year.
Not without Stars
Wake Forest is not without its
individual stars. The Demon
Deacons' with a proud defense,
against which only one touch
down has been scored this sea-
son, point to the colorful "Jum-
bo" Swan, stellar lineman and
punter extraordinary, as the equal
of any player in his position in
the South.
Both Vanderbilt and Wake For
est squads are impressive. The
former possesses a nicely bal
anced eleven, worthy to take the
field against the best eleven OF the
nation. The latter shows 18 men
out of "a who stand six feet in
height or better.
Jumbo" Swan stands 6 feet 2
inches and weighs 220 pounds.
Hardie and Captain Green, ends:
owens, center, and Wilson and
Lawhorn, backs, are other start
ing members who tower well above
the average gridironer,
C. U. Loses McVean
C.. U, will enter tomorrow's
game against the Demon Dea-
cons" without the services of
Charlie McVean, best Cardinal
quarterback, and Vinny Fraatz,
star end. Gene Augusterfer, local
product, will replace McVean,
while Johnny Ball, to date an
untried wingman, will take the
place of FraatZ.
While c. U. will enter its game
against Wake Forest somewhat
weakened. Maryland is all set for
Vanderbilt, the Old Liners having
practically their full strength to
put on the field.
With the heavy drills at College
Park over and only tuning up
this afternoon remaining as a
final preparation for the Com
modoreS, Earl Widmyer, the fleet
halfback, is the only player who
is not 100 per cent. Widmyer, just
as anxious to see action as any
of the Old Liners, is practically
we'll again, following an injured
shoulder in the v. M. I. contest.
However he will not start, his
place at right halfback being
filled at the outset by Paul Kier-
nan, another speedy ball carrier
who also is heavier.
Maryland's line will be just the
same as the one started against
st. Johns and v. M. l., but the
backfield wifi be revised over the
starting combination in those two
contests. Poppelman will be back
at quarter, Woods returning to
fullback and Nelson, as usual,
will be at left half.
Maryland's Lineup
In the forward wall will be
Hines and Benner, ends; Farrell
and keenan,, tackles: Rouzer and
Mcdonald, guards, and Webb,
center. This will give Maryland
line that will average 189
pounds and one which will close
to the Vanderbilt forwards in
weight.
One of tomorrow's outstanding
games brings together American
University and Gallaudet, a con-
test involving local rivalry.
Another game of interest sees
the BiSons of Howard University
clashing with the outstanding
eleven of Morgan COLLEGE
The former game will be played
at American University field, the
