Deacons Get
Down ToWork
For Wildcats

Wake Forest, Nov. 21.-After
resting most Of last week and Mon
day of this week, the Deacons Of
Wake Forest got down to serious
work this afternoon preparing Tor
their encounter with Davidson's
Wildcats in Charlotte, Thanksgiving
Nov. 800.
Coach Peahead Walker has said
he does not intend to give his boys
another easy moment before this
final tilt Of the year He's doing this
because the Deacons will be Ia
vored to take the Wildcats in tow,
and there's no telling what may re-
suit in a Deacon-'Cat Turkey Day
classic, especially so this year with
the Davidson club possessing two
fine passers in Granny Sharpe and
Dave Spencer.
It's no secret that Wake Forest
has been notably weak against most
any semblance of passing attack
this year. Davidson has a fine aer-
ial offense, there's no doubt about
this Against Duke, Sharpe and
Spencer tossed heave after heave
until it netted a touchdown. The
Deacons are supposed to have a
strong running game, but could not
score on Duke North Cardinals
aerial attack did not come close to
scoring on Duke
If the Cats can do that to the
Blue Devils, what will they do to
Wake Forests glazing weakness?
Then, too, ever since this Wake
Forest-Davidson series began back
in 1903, there have been many oc-
casions when one club or the other
rose to great inspirational heights,
even against seeming overwhelming
odds For instance, in 1887 the Dea-
cons were conceded hardly any
chance at all to upset the powerful
Wildcats, quarterbacked by the
flashy Tenny Lafferty.
But it's history now how the
Deacons, playing over their heads,
swept aside the Davidson defense
and pounded out a 1877 victory Go
back to the 1886 tilt when Wake
Forest was lead by the great passer,
Walton Kitchin. Practically every
one thought the Deacons would
make a route Of that setto, but it
was Davidson instead Of Wake For
est who did the routing Wake was
beaten by two touchdowns.
Now with Davidson being placed
in the underdoG's role, there's no
doubt but that the Wildcats will be
keyed to the highest possible pitch.
They will be out to win, and if they
can hit their mark with a few of
those bullet like passes who knows
what will happen.

Raleigh, Nov. 21.-Well, it's all

Most pleasant thing to record is
that not even the most ardent Caro-

that could not be said after the
1885 debacle, when there were NUT

However, If South had started

he should cash the ace of spades and
