There also are more than a half

They are the University of Richmond

the S. I. A. "a, William and Mary
College. Davidson College and Wake
Southern Conference territory and have
good athletic teams
One of the causes for the split in the
old Southern Conference was the un-
wieldineSs Of the big body. The South
ern now has only 10 members, COM
pact group in which administration is
simple, and there is some doubt the con-

In the event these schools are not
admitted there is a possibility that an
other conference may be organized in
the Virg1nia-North Carolina region.

This year will see the first break in
the three-year series since 1921, Eng
land challenging every third year since
that time. The first England United
States matches were played in 1885,
with England the victor. England also
won in 1902 and agan in 1914. but
the United States was successful IN
1909, 1911, 1918, 1921. 1924, 1927 and
