Three impressions OF this quaint

Southern ladies, dressed in Colonial
costumes, who guide you through the
historical treasures while describing
them in the soft, cultured accents of
the Old Dominion aristocracy; the
fact that every structure in the vii

architecture, and the indescribable
beauty Of the gardens.

this region are to be seen luxuriant

The total estimated population is
something under l 500, 900. with about
40 per cent in the District of Colum-

The Potomac River is formed by the
confluence of the North and South
Branches, about % miles below Cum

flows in a southeasterly direction, a
distance of nearly $50 miles. into
Chesapeake Bay. For Its entire length
it forms the southern boundary of the
State of Maryland and the northern
boundary Of the States of West Vir-
ginia and Virginia. The North Branch
of the Potomac has its headwaters in
the Allegheny Mountains near the
west corner Of Maryland; the South
Branch rises in the Alleghenies which
form the State boundary between Vir-
ginia and West Virginia. These
branches, with their tributaries and
the tributaries of the main stream, as
far down as the Shenandoah River,
drain a series of narrow and generally
fertile valleys lying between the par
allel ranges which make up the sys-
tenn of the Alleghenies in this region.
The Shenandoah River, the largest
tributary of the Potomac, parallels
the direction of flow of the North and
South Branches and joins the main
stream at Harpers Ferry, about 54
miles above the District of Columbia.
The more important tributaries en-
tering the Potomac from the north are
Conochoheague and Antietam Greeks
and the Monocacy River, with their
headwaters in Pennsylvania.

HARTFORD TEAM
 WORTHY FOE OF CROSBY ELEVEN.
BuIkeIey Has Won Two City Titles; Blue, White
 BackfieId Set

The high school football season opens here tomorrow afternoon when Crosby high meets Bulkeley high of Hartford at Hamilton park. The Bulkeley high team, coached by Babe" Allen, has come to hte front the past few seasons to rank as one of the strongest elevens ;n the state. This team has been city champion of Hartford for the past two years, deieating Hartford high in 1884 by the score. of 25-13, and repeating the victory in 1885, by a 14-6 score.
 CroSby,S record in four meetings with Bulkeley show Crosby W inning two by 60 and 8-6 scores, losing one by a 0-6 count, and tieing one 6-6. These figures show clearly enough the calibre of the team which faces Crosby at Hamilton park tomorrow afternoon.
 Ready To Go
 Coach Bill Schofield is just about set on his back field lineup. He will probably start Red" Vallone the Crosby sprinter, at quarter Irony" Urcinas at left half; "Squint" Murphy at right half, and Jack Johnson at fullback. Of these Johnson alone can be classed a husky. He weighs around 170 Urcinas and Murphy are in the 155 pound class and Vallone 138.
 Experiment
 The task of naming the line which will start tomorrow is more difficult With only Capt. Eddie Borzilauskas back from last season, the problem of developing new line in two weeks time is no small one. Right now it looks as if Fritz Borzilauskas and either Prauskaitis or McSherry will start at the. ends; Eddie Bor- zilauskas and Shembriski at the tackles; "Red" Partin and Mazza- rella at guard, and Miller at cen ter. This lineup will average around 160. Most of these boys will be playing their first game so it is diff ficult to make any predictions There has been 8 hard fight for the positions, a fight which is still go- ing on, and the line should make up in aggressiveness what it lacks in experience. The kick-of is sched- uled for 2:30 D. m.

 Ripper" Donate, dependable In- dies lineman and Dave Bartolini, plunging fullback will be unable to play Sunday, due to injuries last week at Fairfield, but Coach Ed die Di Napoli is confident of putt ing a combination on the field that will earn the support of local grid fans within a short time.

DETROIT LIONS AND CARDINALS CLASH SUNDAY Champions Start Title De.
 fense - Giants at Pittsburgh

The Detroit Lions, champions of the National Football League, open their campaign Sunday to retain the title meeting the Chicago Car dinals in Detroit while the New York Giants, eastern titleholders for the past three seasons, invade Pittsburgh to battle the Pirates, who are unbeaten in two starts this season and top the race.
 Two other National League games are also slated for decision. The Chicago Bears, western division leaders, invade Philadelphia for the first intersectional struggle of the season. The Boston Redskins clash with the Dodgers in Brooklyn in the other contest. <
 Each game played so far in the pro grid league serves to strengthen the opinion that the circuit is even- ly balanced. The Pirates who won only four games last fall, have scored in both their games to date and look strong enough to make trouble for any club in the circuit.
 On Their Game
 The Pirates by defeating Brook Iyns on Wednesday night convinced that its opening victory over Bos- ton was no upset and the Giants on their showing in the opener two weeks ago in Philadelphia are not better than an even choice against the team which tops the race.
 Boston after losing to the Pirates apparently struck it's stride against the Philadelphia Eagles and Brook lyn also showed in the second half of the Pirate struggle that 1t has a potentially powerful squad which will be more dangerous with every start. Bobby Wilson, Southern Methodist recruit, has injected 8 dangerous threat in the Dodger backfleld to counter against Cliff Battles, Boston's ace ball carrier who at present is topping the league in ground gaining.
 The Chicago Bears are in for . tough battle in their first invasion of the east. The Eagles are thor oughly aroused and the Giants can testify that is . bad omen for 8 Philadelphia opponent. Dave Smuk- Ter, Temple recruit fullback, is ex- pected to return and if he is on hand the Bears will have their hands full.
 Detroit has been marking time and chafing at the bit since its game with the All-Stars and the Chicago Cardinals are equally anx- ious to get at the champions. Last fall 1t was an inability to cope with the Lions which caused the Cards to lose out in the race for the vest ern crown and they are out to re- verse this order in the current race.
