The visiting team, William and

own against the Colonials. A
good game is in prospect, even if
many feel that the men from
Williamsburg are not strong
enough to defeat G. w.
Football psychology indicates
that William and Mary will cause
G. w. many troublesome minutes

Unusual interest attaches to the
Georgetown-West Virginia Wes-

the fact that it will be the first
local appearance of the Hoyas

Good Record
Prior to Saturday, the Bobcats
had won three straight, licking
Bethany, 43 to 6; defeating west
Virginia, II to 0, and winning
over Duquesne, Z to 6. ANY team

show the football world how it
can be done Saturday in Griffith
Stadium.
The Maryland-Navy battle now
looms as one of the superior
games of the weekend. Mary
lands team is beginning to click,
and the Old Liners figure they
can win over the MiddieS. by tax

other hand, points to it's i'm

Maryland in Baltimore.
Cards Away
C. U. has a sturdy foe to meet.
Providence is not an easy team
to defeat, particularly on its
home grounds. The cards are
doped to win however, and Tom
Whelan and Company are ex-
pected to make it 13 out of II
when the teams meet.
Hampton, which last year won
over Howard, 25 to 0, is expected
to defeat the Bisons again this
weekend.
