By FRANK BUCK ONEILL

Nays smashing football eleven,
heralded by football critics as one
of the most formidable aggrega-
tions to wear the Blue and Gold
in recent years, will go into action
this afternoon down at Crabtown
on the Bay with the Cavaliers Of
old Virginia. The kickoff is Sched-
uled for $3.50 o'clock.
Virginia is one of Nays Oldest
and most respected rivals. In
1893, when the turtle back" and
the haul and maui style of play
dominated the field, the Cavaliers
first met the Midshipmen. Since
then, at intervals, Virginia has
played Navy, and, while Navy has
won most Of the games, Virginia
conducted itself with valor on the
field.
Virginia today will hurl a young
team against Navy. Walter Smith,
Jim Gillette, Ted Sharretts, Ben
Tucker, Harry McClaugherty and
Art Bryant are sophomore backs,
and give high promise for the i'm.
mediate future. Bus Male, Harry
Dinwiddie and Peter Nisted are
upper claSsrnen. Male has played
against Navy.
GOOD TACKLES
Weeks and Hoback are tackles
of marked ability, and may give
Navy plenty Of trouble before the
day is over.
While spirited action is to be
expected. Navy should win without
too much trouble. There is power,
versatility and wealth Of reserve
strength on the Middle squad.
One Of the stirring battles Of
the day is expected when Western
Maryland and University of Mary.
land clash in Richie Stadium at
College Park. The kickoff is set
for 2:30 o'clock.
Maryland played one Of the
smashing games of early season
against University of Pennsylvania
on last Saturday. Penn won by
touchdown, but the Terrapins led
at half time and played to the last
ounce Of their power in reserves.
WELL EQUIPPED
Frank Dobson has placed a team
in the field which is well equipped
with all that modern fotball gives
coach and team. Western
Maryland, too, is well equipped.
There should be a great battle
Of line-bucking backs when Frank
Sadowski of the Terrors and "Jar-
ring" Jim Meade go into action.
SadoWski stars on quick-opening
plays, developing great power in
his short, choppy stride.
Maryland Is counting upon its
sophomore tackles, Bob Brown and
Ralph Albarino. These boys dis
tinguished themselves against Uni
versity Of Pennsylvania, and
should do all right today. The
tackles and ends will decide the
outcome, in all probability.
HOYAS PLAY
Georgetown's Hoyas are in
Worcester, playing one Of the
make or break games of the sea-
son with Holy Cross. Here is a
game that Georgetown wants to
win in order to sustain its march
into the higher brackets of ball
ball. The HoyaS have a we'll
rounded team. but Holy Cross is
anything but a weakling.
For those who scan the schedule
in quest of traditional games, there
is much to hold the interest. If
you must have ivy, Yale meets
Pennsylvania, renewing an ancient
rivalry. This game will be played
at New Haven. Yale's attack Is
ever battling, geared to strike from
long range or short, and Penn will
be thoroughly tested.

even chance with the men Of Old
Nassau. Princeton showed power
against the young team Of Viz
