TOPS D. C. SLATE.
By CHICK KENNY

One Of the top-flight elevens
on the local college menu for the
current season is booked for Fri
day night when the Rebels of
the University of Mississippi move
into Washington for their annual
joust with George Washington
University's undefeated and un-
scored upon eleven.
The game is expected to be the
tops" in grid warfare and will
vie with the Georgetown-Maryland
and Cotholic U.-South Carolina
battles later in the season for col
lege attendance records.
Ole Miss Is not q new visitor
to Washington, as George Wash.
Iington has been playing the South
ern outfit for the last two years.
Catholic University likewise has
had dealings with the club win.
ming from Mississippi In the
famous Orange Bowl game Of 1885,
but then losing in a return en-
gagement the following season.
The Colonials played Ole Miss
to q scoreleSS tie in q sea Of mud
two years ago, but last year were
drubbed here, 27 to 6.
STAGES UPSET
Mississippi pulled off one Of the
outstanding upsetS of the first
week of the season this year when
it trounced Louisiana State, 20-7.
Since then it has bowled over all
opposition, with the exception OF
Vanderbilt, who won 1877 IN the
last Is seconds of the game.
The success Of Ole Miss this
season is truly phenominal as it
has changed football coaches and
with it the style Of play used by
its veteran array Of talent. Before
the start of the season, Ole Miss
signed up Harry Mehre in place
of Ed Walker. Mehre is a former
Notre Dame star who has been
coaching at the University Of
Georgia for the last ten years.
While George Washington Is
pointing for its game with Ole
Miss, undefeated Georgetown is
busily engaged for its battle with
Temple, Friday night at Phila-
delphia. This game looms as the
toughest on the Hoyas' schedule.
Georgetown had heavy going
against Manhattan last Saturday
in Yankee Stadium, nosing out
the Jaspers, 14-13, but Manhat-
tan is not in the same class with
Pop Warmers Temple crew.
c. U. GETS JOLT
Catholic University likewise Is
hard at work for its game here
Saturday afternoon. This is the
second home tilt Of the season
for the Cardinals, who take on
st. Louis University in the Brook
land Stadium.
Last year C. q. travelled out
west and was rudely jolted, z to 2.
Henry SAINT Ambregie, the Soph-
omore find, is expected to be
groomed as the Spearhead in
Coach Dutch Bergman's plans for
the Billikins.
Catholic received a severe set
back when it was learned today
that Charley Moutenot, fancy
stepping sophomore, is definitely
through for the season. Moutenot
sustained torn ligaments in his
left ankle in the second quarter
Of the game with Wesleyan last
Saturday.
TERPS MEET v. M. I.
Maryland was expected to step
up practice today for its Home
coming Day conflict with strong
v. M. I. in Byrd Stadium Satur-
day afternoon. Hope for any kind
of a showing against the vaunted
Flying Squadron depends strictly
on whether or not Charley Weld
enger, Terp passing star, will be
available for the game. He in
jured his knee badly against Viz
ginia last Saturday.
American o., likewise, is back
in harness. The 40 victory
over st. Johns College at An
napolis was q great triumph, but
resulted in the loss Of two Of the
regular players for the game
Saturday with Hampden-Sydney
at Farmville, Va. Emerson Bart
lett, who scored 10 points against
the Johnnies, injured his ankle,
while Fullback BENJAMIN slS-
tanned q bad bruise. It Is doubt
full If either will play.
