WYE CANNOT afford to take La
" Sale too lightly" says Coach
Dutch Bergman, although I
believe we can win. Any team that
considers its opponent too easy is in
for a hard afternoon and I've seen
some rather mediocre elevens hold
much stronger teams to no score, and
even win, because of that. We're 60
ing into the game with La Sale to
give all we've got. without any con-
sideration whatsoever for La Salle's
strength. I'm not taking any more
chances than have to in any open
ing game. because I know too many
unexpected things can happen"
Considerable feeling exists among
those familiar with the strength of
Hampden- Sydney that American Uni
versity may be lucky to escape defeat,
despite the fact that Coach Walter
Young says he will have one of his
best elevens and be much stronger
than last year or the year before.
Hampden-Sy probably has as
good a team as any other school its
size in the South Atlantic section.
Il don't know just how good this
Hampden-S Sydney team is" remarked
Coach Young this morning. L do
know that We have a much better
team than when that school beat us
last year and hope we are strong
enough to cope with anything it can
offer. Naturally, I feel somewhat op-
timistic because of the improvement
we are showing, but still realize bet
o1- iYtct
what we are up against for our open
ing game and how good We must be TO
whip a team that last week held Vir-
ginia to A touchdown and safety"
The American U.-Hampden- Sydney
game is to be played in the Central
High Stadium tomorrow afternoon.
~ ALLAUDET always Is Gallaudet,
II and Coach Teddy Hughes al
ways Is himself. And. as far as
foot ball teams are concerned. and
for all coaches. that is not simply
stating the obvious. Gallaudet year
after year goes on doing the best it
can. turning out creditable elevens
under the most disadvantageous con-
ditions.
Yet Gallaudet never complains
about lack of material-nevcr does
ANYTHING but work to make the best
of its situation. Hughes is typical OF
Gallaudet. Loyal, honest, with high
ideals. he works with his men for the
results he achieves in the way of their
development, and to see such improve
ment take place is all Hughes asks;
but even with that Hughes says that
Gallaudet this Fall has brighter pros
poets than usual 1t is Hughes opln-
ion that his team should be much
more formidable.
You understand our situation,
saws Coach Hughes, "and tnere Is
not much can add in explanation OF
it. except that we expect to have a
better team this year. That does not
mean that we are looking forward to
