Contest

NEW ORLEANS, La, Oct. "a.
North Carolina clashes with Tu-
lane University here this after
noon.
Though undefeated, the Tar
Heels are the underdogs in the
grid headliner with the Green
Wave, another unbeaten eleven as
a result of Tulane's show of
strength in routing Colgate 28-6
last week. This is Cardinals first
invasion of the far South since
1922 when it measured off Tulane
in a thrilling 1912 battle. That
contest marked the only previous
meeting of the two teams.
Power of Dixie
The Greenies under the able
guidance of Head Coach Lowell
(Red Dawson and his two capable
assistants, Glen Seidel and Bill
Bevan, rate one of the most power
full outfits in lower Dixie. They
also number among their victims
the formidable University of Mis-
sissippi eleven and tied Auburn,
rated by many as favorite for
the Southern Conference crown.
The Tar Heels, improving con
sistently each game, have had sew
eral close shaveS. Wake Forest
was beaten 10-7 in their iirst
start. Victories followed over
Tennessee, 14-6; Maryland, 40,
and New York University, 14-13.
Their best performances were
against the Vols and the Violet.
A smart, versatile attack, utiliz-
ing both power and speed, is what
the Tar Heels must stop when
they engage the Green Wave.
Bucky Bryen's rifle-like passing
and Ralph Bonds and Noel LOT
tins circus catching make the
Greenies' passing game one of the
most feared in the nation.
Bryan, Andrews, Aces
Bryan'S off-tackIe running, and
John Andrews terrific line buck
ing, feature the smart running at
tack of the New Orleans eleven.
CroWell Little, heady quarter;
Jimm Hutchins, All-Southern full
back, and Burntte, kicking ace,
head the Tar Heel aerial show
Capt. Dick Buck, All-Southern end,
and George Watson, sophomore
halfback, have exceptional pass
snagging abilities. Art Dit,
Hutchins' capable understudy.
and Watson dominate North Caro-
lina's running attack.
The North Carolina and Tulane
lines will stack up on even terms
as to weight, each averaging 1875
pounds. The former will hold a
slight edge in the backfieId.

This was the first home game
for the Teachers. who have tasted
defeat twice this season on foreign
fields. The teams battled on even
terms in the first quarter, then
in the second period the Teachers
opened up their passing attack. 1t
was not long before Smith, plung-
ing fullback took the oval from
the air on a 25-yard pass from
Henley and then sprinted six more
yards down the field and across
the visitors goal line for the first
score. A place kick by Smith con-
verified for the extra point.
In the third quarter Smith was
responsible for another touch
down. He heaved a 22-yard for
ward pass to Freeman, end, who
caught the ball behind the Della
ware goal line. Again Smiths toe
place kicked the ball for the extra
point. Late in the fourth quarter
Henley got off tackle for 16 yards
to score the final touchdown. The
visitors blocked the kick for the
extra point. The Teachers out
played the Dovermen, piling up
10 first downs to one for them.

Michigan Seeks
To End Losses

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Oct. "a.
Desperately hoping the law OF
averages will be enforced for
them in Ann Arbor today, the
Michigan Wolverines, beaten in
all of their three 1886 starts, set
out determined to beard the Co.
lumbia Lions in their own den
here.
Most of the experts, however,
predict Lou Titles roaring Lions
will hang another defeat on the
Wolverines, making it four in a
row for Coach Harry Kipke's
young footballers.
About $4,000 fans were eX-
pected to witness the intersec-
tional contest. The weather pre-
diction was cloudy with possible
showers.
Michigan which has tailed
only 10 points in its three games
this season, is not likely to upset
the dope as they did against Lou
Little'S eleven last year. The
Lions with all-around power are
too strong, the critics say.
Fans were due for one of the
best aerial shows seen in these
parts in some time, with the ap-
pearance of Sid Luckman, 190-
pound pilot, in the Columbia line
up. His skill as a passer is said
to be equaled only by the ability
of another Lion, Hubert Schulze,
left end, as a punter. Against
the Army, Schulze booted a ball
So yards.
AS usual, Coach Kipke declined
to- make a prediction on Michi-
gan contest. That he may have
a surprise in the Wolverine bag
today was indicated by a secret
workout held yesterday at which
press and public were barred.

, Actually football teams Of stu
dents from the Charlottesville
and Lexington Universities had
been playing games against each
other for nearly 20 years before
that first scheduled contest. They
first sent a challenge across the
mountains in 1872, but it was
not until 10 years later that a
regularly scheduled game OF the
modern football was played.
Ancient history has been for
gotten here today. What matters
most to the $500 Virginia stu
dents and to hundreds of alumni
who are back home for home.
coming is that the Cavaliers
haven't won from the Generals
in five meetings, and that they
are given the edge today.
This edge will disappear, how
ever, unless the sun comes out.
A wet field will give the Generals
an advantage, for though they
lack speed they have five men in
their line who weigh 200 pounds
or more. They'll be the favored
team in the mud.
Two Teavy Tackles
Virginia has two heavy tackles,
Stanford Haskell and Billy Weeks.
The guards are light, and Coach
Gus Tebell may even have to start
Cabell MadduX, of Washington,
who only weighs 161 pounds, may
be one of the starting guards un-
less it is agreed to shift Leonard
Trell, 210-pound tackle, into a
guard post.
The Washington and Lee squad
of q men came over the noun
tains by bus this morning while
nearly half of the Lexington stu
dent body accompanied them. The
Generals were fired by a rally last
night at the Doremus gymnasium
and also by the belief that they
have the Cavaliers linked.
Enthusiasm High
Virginians had an athletic mass
meeting last night preceded by a
bonfire and torchlight parade.
This morning enthusiasm is
running high in hopes of uncork-
ing a victory through the flashing
backs, Capt. Harry Martin, Bus
Male, Peter Nistad and Harry Din
widdie, with their aerial and
lateral tricks.
Alumni are today enjoying
homecoming festivities at the new
alumni hall. where a houseWarm-
ing is being held this morning.
This feature for the old grads will
be resumed after the game.

MISSISSIPPI

indications are bent on stalking
a Sortie with the Ole Miss eleven
which may turn out to be one of
the grid classics of the South this
year. That there will be plenty
of scoring there appears no doubt,
but just the same Old Miss is on
the long side of the betting with
a touchdown to spare.
With the exception of one posi-
ton in the regular starting line
up the C. U. team will take the
field this afternoon with the same
lineup that stacked up against De
Paul last Saturday. Capt. Hermie
Schmarr and Zeke Brown will be
at ends; Leo KatalinaS and FL
wood Clements, tackles; Vic So
chon and Joe Anthonavage at
guards, and Joe Yanchulis at cen
ter.
Makofske Returns
The backfield will line up with
Sully Greece, erstwhile substitute,
due to start in the place of Bob
Makofske, with Irish Carroll and
Bill Adamaitis at the. halfback
positions and Dixie Walker in the
quarterback slot. There is still q
possibility, though, that Makofske.
because of the wet underfooting,
will be Coach Dutch BergmanS
final choice at the fullback posi-
ton. Makofske has proved in the
past that he is a "mudder," and
his kicking of a Soggy ball in the
games of last year stamps him as
being one of the tops" under
these particular conditions.
Special train carrying 800 Cath
olic U. rooters and the band from
the Christian Brothers College will
arrive here from Memphis just
before game time. The game has
attracted much interest through
out the States of Mississippi and
Tennessee, and sellout crowd of
some $4,000 is expected by Ole
Miss athletic authorities despite
the inclement weather.
Home Coming Tilt
The game likewise is Ole Miss
homecoming battle and old grads
of the institution throughout the
South and Southwest have been
dribbling in to this sleepy town
the last few days of the week.
Dutch Bergman, from all indi-
cations, plans on using an air at
tack against Mississippi, provid-
ing of course that the condition of
the field is not too muddy. From
reports gathered en- route to Ok
ford, the Ole Miss team is none
too strong against an aerial game.
1t is Bergman's chief hope to slide
through with a score early in the
fray and then attempt to nurse it
throughout the remainder of the
battle, but if the occasion so lends
itself. he will instruct his quarter
backs to continue on with the at
tack against HapeS and Company.
