The Carrboro String band sat
in the middle of the ballroom,

couple who were not familiar
with the old-fashioned pastime.

Middies Make Three Chances
In Line-Up for Contest Here

20 more than King-a good punter
and passer and strong on defense
against passes.
Clark and Berries are among the
best in their positions on the college
field and Pratt has improved remark
ably, taking his turn with the ball ef-
fectlvely and being particularly GER
tain in grabbing passes.
On the line, Lou Robertshaw. re-
covered from his injury, is back at
his old place OF center, and Rivers
Morrell, formerly of the freshmen Of
Southern California. will be at left
guard. Dave Zabriskie, regular occu-
pant Of the place, is in fair shape,
and likely to get in some playing Sat-
urday, but Morrell, an aggressive
guard Of l85 pounds, will start.
This is the complete lineup:
Left end, Bob Dornin; left tackle
George Lambert; left guard, Rivers
Morren; center. Lou Robertshaw
right guard, Dick Burns (captainl ;
right tackle, Slade Cutter; right end,
Dick Bull; quarterback, Dick Pratt:

What a Wind up:

EOR something like 2S minutes
II Marshall and Shikat put on an
exhibition which was beginning
to get the trade worked up in nifty
lather. Shikat was miles out in
front. but the incurables who stick
with Marshall to a man in every ap-
pearance weren't bothered because
eventual losers too often have their
innings first.
Then Everett. after being tossed
around like a sack of meal for most
of the % minutes, began a series OF
flying tackles. One carried both him
self and Shikat out of the ring to
the floor feet below. They stayed
there until Referee Benny Bortnick
succeeded in counting 10 in all Of
IS seconds ana then called it mo
contest"
Three of the prelims went to deci-
sions, however, proving this mode of
ending a cauliflower carnival isn't a
totally forgotten art. Sander Szabo
of Hungary destroyed poor old Mike
Romano in siX minutes and few
stray seconds: Joe- Tonti squelched Sid
Nabors in II minutes, and Earl Nc
Cready flattened Willie Davis in IA
minutes. There also was committed
a 3O-minute draw between Steve Znos-

A NNAPOLIS, Md. October S
~ CSpeciaD Head Coach Tom
n Hamilton has decided upon
starting lineup for his Naval
Academy team against Virginia in
Washington Saturday, which differs
as to three players from that which
began last weeks William and Mary

Most important o: these is the sub
stitution of Swede Larsen for Tom
King at right half, the former COM
pleting fast backfield in which Dick
Pratt, District lad, is the quarterback;
Buzz Berries the left half and the
stalwart -booting Bill Clark is full
back.
This backfield is far below Virginia's
in weight but it is believed that it is
one of the strongest and most versa
tile combinations in the country.
Larsen substituted for Clark at full
back last season but this year was
shifted TO the halfback group. He is
a fast-moving back of lis pounds

~ by both the Navy and by

at 2;30 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
1t will be Virginia's first gridiron
appearance in Washington since 1913,
the Navy's first since 1881.
Buzz Berries, Navys versatile
three-sport triple -threater, probably
will be the outstanding performer in
the field. The Virginians know that
he is the man they will have to stop
If they are to win. The Midshipmen
also have a fine quarterback in Nick
Pratt and an ace punter in theiy
dependable fullback, Bill Clark.
Virginia may have no back who car
match the feet sWiftness of Berries,
but in Capt. Tommy Johnson and
Phil F'ryberger the Cavaliers have q
pair of excellent ball carriers, while
Spencer Berger, veteran fullback, can
be counted upon to do his share Of
line smashing.
The Midshipmen have a much
stronger line from one end to the
other than do the Cavaliers. Capt
Dick Burns and Sully Vogel are both
guards of experience, while the two
tackles, both star boxers, are the
powerful Beppo Lambert and Kutch
Cutter, the heaviest man on the Navy

FORGE WASHINGTON is at
II Denver to meet the university
bearing the name of that city
tonight. The Colonials left here feel
ing fit and indications are, judging
from press reports, that the team is
ready to put up a great battle with
at least an even chance to win.
The difficulty, though, with making
a prediction about a game such as this
is that it is impossible to get anything
like an accurate idea as to the real
strength of the opposition.

Washington and Lee team that
is thirsting for revenge for that un-
expected beating it took last Fall at
