Cavaliers Also
Boast Star
Backs

There will be a battle of two
tlaShy backfields when the Mary
land Old Liners invade Scott
Stadium at Charlottesville tomor-
row to collide with the Virginia
Cavaliers in their annual grid
iron tuSsle.
With Bill Guckeyson, Mary
lands ace back, again in har-
ness after being on the side
lines all this season with a
strained muscle in his hip; Jim
Meade, sensational Soph; Charlie
Ellinger, Coleman Headley and
John Gormkey, the Cavaliers are
presented with a defensive task
that would tax any team.
Maryland, on the other hand,
will have it's problems in stop
ping a Cavalier attack that will
be led by Captain Martin and
supported by Nistad, great
left handed pasSer; Male, AGREE
and Conner, three other talented
backfielders.
Both teams also have outstand-
ing linemen, such as Vic Willis, g.
foot 5-inch Maryland end, and
Haskell, Virginia's tall and husky
tackle.
The game should provide color
full entertainment for Common
wealth Day" that will find many
of the leaders in political and so
cial life from both Virginia and
Maryland in attendance. One Of
the largest crowds to see a game
at Charlottesville in years is eX-
pected.
Maryland will have a large dele
cation that will go from Washing
ton tomorrow morning by special
train. The party will include the
football squad, many of the uni
versity officials, the 61-piece band,
and a bunch of rooters. President
H. c. Byrd will be among those
10 cheer on the Old Line eleven.
The Old Liners won last season,
ID to 7, but will be meeting a
stronger team than Virginia had
last year. Maryland appears to
be just about on a par with it's
1885 aggregation, so the game
generally is figured to be stand
off.
