CARDINALS ALONE
SEEM TO Be SAFE
G. WIS Chances About Even,
GaIIaudet, Old Liners
Are Underdogs.
BY H. c. BYRD.

M teams are nearing the end
v of their schedules, their
troubles are not getting any
lighter. This week -four of them
play and all face sufficient trouble to
make their coaches spend many
thoughtful moments between now and
Saturday. Two will go into their
games with the odds against them, one
with hardly any better than an even
chance, the other a favorite.
In the two games scheduled here,
Catholic University and South Da-
kota, Gallaudet and Randolph Macon,
it is likely that the Cardinals will win
and Gallaudet lose. The Brookland-
ers, though, are pretty sure to find
themselves against a sturdy set of foot
ball players, but should have marked
edge. None of those Dakota elevens,
however, should be taken too lightly.
1t is hard to see wherein Gallaudet
has much show against the boys from
Ashland. The Kendall Greeners have
not shown any standard of play-as
improved over last seasons as it has
been-high enough to indicate they
have more than q slender outside
chance.
George Washington, on the ocra-
sion of its journey to Morgantcwn,
will face in West Virginia a hard
playing group of young men who
know what it is to battle successfully
on gridirons agaist powerful opposi-
ton. 1t appears certain that the West
Virg1nlanS have no back as good as
Leemans, but do have a number of
ball carriers who know where they are
going and how to get there.
G. w. Is Favored,
IF GEORGE WASHINGTON plays
as well Saturday at Morgantown
as 1t did against Louisiana State
it ought to win. However, it cannot
afford to slough off the least bit.
Maryland goes out to Bloomington
to meet the University of Indiana.
The Old Liners are not fooled by the
30-to-0 defeat of Indiana by Min
nesota into thinking they are going
against a weak combination. They
know the standard of foot ball, and
the competition, in the Western Con-
ference is higher than in this section.
Maryland has only to remember that
Indiana is the only team that so far
has been able to hold, and play to a
tie, Pop Warmers Temple eleven, a
team that beat Virginia Tech by
about 80 points.
Maryland knows it is in for an up
hill fight all the way.
Old Coaching Foes Face.
THE coming together Of Minnesota
and Chicago Saturday will
bring into competition two
coaches who formerly worked in the
same city but with intensely bitter
rivals. Bernie Bierman, who is hav-
ing so much success at Minnesota is
to meet Clarke Shaughnessy now at
Chicago.
Bierman formerly was at Tulane
and Shaughnessy at Loyola. both
within hailing distance in New Or
leans. Tulane and Loyola did not
play each other, because, as one
coach said, WED control the players
and get through the game all right. but
what would happen the night Of the
game between the rival student bodies
would be sad to relate"
TINE first of the battles between
the big three" of North Caro-
lima takes place this week.
TIniuorcifu onoinef
Duke. The Tarheels seem to be much
stronger now than either last year or
the year before. and may give Wal
lace Wade's eleven a bitter dose to
swallow. However, before the Chapel
Hill boys overcome the young men
of Duke they will have to outwit one
of the cleverest brains in foot ball.
