Sexton is warning G. w. that the

Defensively, he adds, they perform
with Just as much gusto.

q contender for laurels in both the
Southern Conference and the closer
to-home big Five" of North Caro-
lima. Coach Jim Weaver apparently
has welded the best eleven he has
ever coached for the Baptist school.
This is. the opinion of Frank Dob
son. Maryland mentor, for one.
AS far as George Washington is
concerned, this is taken for granted.
The Deacon upset the Colonials, Z
to 6, last year and in 1884 gave them
a terrific battle before bowling, to 2.
The Colonials, therefore, should be-
iieve Sexton readily.
With one exception the Colonials
will be fit and ready for a hard
game. Capt. Frank Kavalier, Bruce
Mahan. Leon Morris and Cecil Clark
have recovered from various all
ments and probably will see action.
Only Perry Clark, whose leg was in

sissippi game week before last, can't

HAMILTON, N. Y, october 20
= Saturday the hopes of Prince

the mythical championship of the

victims of upsets.
The list of Eastern teams with

It is great tribute to the

Practicing Fancy Stuff to
Use in Gotham Battle
on Saturday.

- GEORGETOWN began prepara-
1 tions for Saturdays game
with New York University
yesterday in the utmost Sc
crecy. A section of the Hilltop prac-
tice field has been shielded by canvas
and the sessions during the week are to
be conducted in privacy.
Jack Hagerty has reasons for all this
secrecy. New plays, which involve
laterals and forward passes, are to be
rehearsed for Saturdays game. Up
to the Bucknell game the Hoyas were
content to play straight foot ball.
Against the Bisons few laterals and
forward passes were tried for the first
time. The results were pleasing.

a day of shocking foot ball
results over the entire Ma
- ton, the South continued to
escape last Saturday with just q few
bruises. There were some surprises
in the scores, but no real upsets
in Dixie
The end of the days warfare saw
Duke emerge as the top team OF the
section with convincing victory over
a strong Georgia Tech outfit.
Duke now undoubtedly is In the
front rank as a Rose Bowl possibility
if the Southern Conference rules will
permit. Two hard games remain on
it's schedule, one against Tennessee
and the other the annual battle with
North Carolina.
Tennessee Advances Fast.
THE biggest surprise in the South
eastern Conference was Tennes-
sees scoreless tie with Alabama.
'Bamas tie and Georgia Techs loss
left the Big 10 without an unbeaten,
united eleven.
Tennessee Is coming fast. 1t hasn't
yet played a bad game Of foot ball.
BY November it will be one Of the
Souths best.
Vanderbilt lost to Southern Metho-
dist and the result was no upset.
For the Commodores, one word covers
it all-outclassed. The Mustangs
passing attack is as good as any
ever saw in 80 years connection with
foot ball, and Saturday 1t was exc
cuted without q flaw.
Break for Vandy, Perhaps.
T AM sorry my son, Jack Morrison,
was crippled and could not play
for S. M. u, but I suppose I should
be glad he wasn't In there. He might
not have been as kind as was Matty
Bell, who used "a reserves in addi-
ton to his IL starters and obviously
did not try to run up the score.
The days greatest surprise in the
Southwest was Baylor's victory over
Texas.
The Texas Aggies broke an 11-year
INK by trimming T. c. U. 1t was
the first time A. and M. has shown
any scoring punch, having won two
previous games with field goals.
Dick Todd, a bruising sophomore
fullback, led the attack to score two
touchdowns. I advise keeping an eye
on this boy, for he will be one Of thu
country's outstanding players before
he finishes.

feet and scrambled for the exit when
his turn came. Fifteen minutes later
he was back, and this time he was

You observed that Dintamin

why they take beatings and want to
fight again next week. There amt no
doubt in their minds that boxing Is

winning the world championship.
And after they come back, all beaten
